What Did You Do To Your 2ND GEN RAM Today?

Drove home from Lake Bronson MN. Spent our first night "camping" with the slide in camper at Walmart Thief River Falls, then back up 59 hwy to Lake Bronson for 3 nights of drinks, guitar, and stock cars at Greenbush MN! Great weekend for sure!
My math says I got 11.25 cnd miles/gal which is around 9.25 in US miles/gal. Not terrible for averaging 60 on the highway in third with 3.55 gears and 265/70/17's. ANd I checked the spedo with the girlfriends gps and its bang on. I thought for sure we would be would be off, but its perfect up to 70, which is as fast as I would ever drive with the camper on...
Had some fun with a couple of ladies that thought it would be cool to tailgate... I was watchin with my rear view camera how close they were, and when they got inside 6 feet I touched the brakes! Haha watch those silly ladies panic brake. They gave us the finger when they finally passed. What makes people think that 6' is a good following distance at 60 mph? Like really?

Well, drove it to a side-job and worked all day. Felt good to finally be doing something all day. Right before time to go home, walked through a section of wall between the studs and there just happened to be a large nail sticking down... Long story short, I bled all over my seat and beat the hell out of the truck getting home just to find out it wasn;t as bad as I thought.
On a side note, still looking for camo material for the headliner. Not sure what to use.

My dad once threw an ashtray full of coins at someone for tailgating him.
Oh yeah. I put an new alternator on, fixed my misfire, fixed the squeaky belt problem, changed the oil, rotated the tires, and best of all, got a tailpipe at the junkyard. Now Purpl sounds like the red 2nd gen from Twister.

I like having my chime for everything except for when the door is open with key in.... ie listening to tunes while working on something with the door open... I even tried a piece of electrical tape over the chime holes once just to quiet it down some, but it just made it sound weird and more annoying lol... so I cut the key sense wire right before it goes into the chime module and put a toggle on it up under the dash. That way I can just flip the switch to kill the chime if I'm listening to tunes... works great, but I think I'm gonna take the switch out of there and wire it up through the door switch so the dome lights don't stay on while the door is open if I don't want them to

I just wait for the poor idiot behind me to reach for his PDA or Ipod and give him a closeup of my Rear axle. They usually are quick to hit the brakes, they pass me showing me the international sign for "you're #1" and get on their way. Waiting for the person that'll finally pay to replace the bed and tailgate...

I'm known for brake checking tailgaters Except I usually give er a good quick stab of the brake pedal, really wakes up the idiots behind me hahaha... The wife HATES it when I do it Just a couple of weeks ago I did it to a guy in a Grand Am who was ON my ***, came outta nowhere too. It worked, he backed off considerably... Well about a mile from where I did it was a store I was heading to, pulled in there and he pulls in also, right in front of me. I thought, yep gonna get into a scene here lol.... But he came over and apologized for comin up on me so fast and tailgating hahaha... great guy too, older than me, and not some teenager like I was expecting... He knew exactly why I nailed the brakes
