Guessing that is a commercial plate? Is it for work or just DMV rule? Curious.

One, possibly of just very few things NY has done for the people recently was remove the weight regulations for personal use pickups. Commercial plates are no longer necessary for the Ram so it is less expensive to register…..you know….every two years. ‍

It's a combination plate all pickups in CT use either a combination plate or a commercial plate. Commercial plates on work truck's allow you to run commercial insurance so if you plow or do Commercial work you can have higher liability insurance. As for my truck it's a TOY I am retired and loving it !!!. Also alot of people in CT dont realize it's illegal to drive a pickup on a public road without Commercial plate's they don't enforce it . But if you get in a crash you regular passenger vehicle insurance won't cover it.
 
Changed the right front hub. Transmission service. Rear brake's. Nothing fun yet just bought the truck and I'm making up for all the maint. that should of been performed. Kind of pisses me off a little that the problems were not disclosed. I was would of bought the truck regardless. Its just needing little thing's here and there. It's on a partial diet. DPF and the SCR left chat a while ago. Still has the grid heater, still has the EGR just not connected. stupid question though. With the EGR electrical connections being disconnected. and the EGR still in place, is it possible that the EGR with force soot into the intake????

How many miles are on your truck?
 
Wasn't just today but during the last couple of weeks I've had new Mopar HD mud flaps installed,
and then the AMP RESEARCH Extreme running boards to replace the factory boards.

So far I'm well pleased with the changes, the mud flaps are keep a lot of the winter slop off the truck, The steps go a couple of inches lower to the ground, they just about evenly split the step up in half which works quite well.

My brother has those on his Tacoma and likes them.

I was wondering, what happens if you are off-roading and need to stop and get out with a rock or log under your door?

Does the step try to deploy, hits the object, then automatically retract?

Yes it will retract if there is resistance, same as the OEM steps.

With the OEM steps you can disable them from Uconnect. I do it whenever I find myself in rocks. I’d hope the aftermarket ones have a way to do something similar.
