Smile New guy here

Hey all, Iv been lurking here for a little while since I got the truck from my father, he has no time to drive it or work on it so he gave it to me. Its a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 Extended Cab 4x4, it has the 318 magnum, Back when my dad bought it he immediatly sent to off and had a skyjacker lift put on it, im not exactly sure how much suspension and body lift it has, but I think its 3" and 3" to total 6". The tires are 315 75 r17 bf at's on Mickey Thompson aluminum rims. It has dual magnaflow exhaust straight out the back with 3" tips, Its been babied since he bought it and only has 67k on it, The interior is spotless aside from 3 cracks in the dash, Over all its a good running truck and im sure you guys can help me with any problems that are sure to arise. I think i covered most things im not sure feel free to ask questions

Good looking truck you have acquired, this is a good site to keep it running well and spend some $$$ to make it a better Ram...speaking from experience. Welcome!!

indeed, nice truck. Congrats.

Gonna move this to general discussion though, as there aren't any tech issues brought up here.

Very clean looking Dodge! I'd recommend you reading the sticky on the plenum so your up to date on that subject. Quick questions: Is your truck regeared for the bigger tires and do you possibly have a walk around video of your truck? Welcome to DF btw!

Thanks yall, I have read the plenum thread throroghly and believe its still good, I'll have to take a look, Either way i'll replace the plate when the weather gets better and I have the time. Im not sure what the gearing is, i'll have to give my father a shout for that one.

Its not an off road truck though, thats for sure. I could do a walk around sometime on a nice day. I plan to do a lot of work on it this spring and summer as college takes up a lot of my time and my garage is a bit to small to work on it in side. Just a note on the mileage, it has 67k kilometers so a little less than 42k miles.
