Re: Sweet Truck

The plastic bed insert sounds like its a lot cleaner and easier to do and you can always get a new one later!

If I ever get around to ripping out the interior of my jeep, I was planning to Herculine it. But now that I'm back in CA, rust and mud is something I rarely have to worry about.

Re: Sweet Truck

That last pic reminds me of my uneventful hunting season last year. I hope to put something with lotsa meat on it in the bed of my truck this year.

Re: Sweet Truck

I went with the Mopar plastic liner. Got a good price on it since my buddy is a chrysler engineer. It will be in next week and ill go get it installed. I think ill wait tille its all done then give it a good wash then take pictures and post them here. The rhino liner is not available around here and i dont feel like driving too far to get it plus wouldnt the plastic look better?

Sounds like you are getting a good deal. Rino linnings are expensive but they give you a better protection and last longer. It is also sprayed on like paint. I don't have the rino but I have heard good things about it. You probably better off with Mopar line (that is what I have).

Re: Sweet Truck

The truck has adjustable hooks installed already and i think they gota take them off to put in a liner. I think i am gona go with a mopar liner since it is custommade for the rambox bed and i can get 35% discount on it. It is good to know that so many people love this truck and i hope it will last a long time for me.

Re: Sweet Truck

Thanks i will try to post pics. I have been driving it every chance i get and love it a lot. Now i want to get a bedliner for it. I think Mopar is the only company that sells bedliners for beds with the ramboxes. I wonder if i can install something on my own?

Congrats on the new truck. I love my 97 RAM 1500 and still going strong. Women love the Dodge style.

I suggest you get the Rino linning (spray on) for your bed, you will love it. Your bed will never collect water (rust) or change shape in the long run (heat/cold).
Also install extrahooks (if you like) on the bed before getting the linning.

You probably can get something on your own but if the Mopar liner is precut to drop into your truck bed, then I wouldn't bother.

Re: Sweet Truck

E85 is crap. It's actually extremely inefficient. It takes more energy to make it than it provides, and it hasn't even made a dent in oil consumption. All it succeeded in doing was driving up corn prices. Making fuel from hemp is the best alternative to oil that I've seen yet, but it's illegal to do that in the US, so they will continue to try to pass off these inefficient/harmful psuedo-"solutions" to the ignorant American public.

Anyway, congratulations on the purchase!

Re: Sweet Truck

I just bought a Dodge Ram 1500SLT. It will be delivered tommorow and i cant wait to pick it up. Yes it does have a Hemi in it and a 4wheel drive and crew cab but the most useful thing for me was the rambox feature. It allows me to put my tools in a lockable compartment without taking up space in the bed of the truck. I need this feature for my business and it only came in the higher end packadges with the hemi and other features. The test drive was pretty impressive. The truck performed awsome! Accelerated like a race car almost and handles like a car vs a truck. The crew cab has room to sit three big guys like me plus the two in the front. I am pretty excited about the truck but also because of incentives, my friends employee discount(friends and family) and my trade in, the price came down to a managable level for me. I bought a bad ass truck for the same price i paid for my V6 Jeep Grand Cherokee 8 years ago. The buying experience was very loooooong, it took all day to get everything they wanted paperwork wise. You dont sighn this many papers when you buy a house. I cant wait to use this baby, it will make going to work fun!

Can you post a pic of it so we can see it.
