Sweet and i agree. I have yet to see another one locally and maybe only a handful on the forums. Its a nice way to show the hemi insignia.

Had it done about a month ago at a shop. It's a full 3M Vinyl Wrap (Satin Orange w/ Satin Black Hood Surround)

SLT8...which speed do you have your fan controller hooked up too? Low or high? And how does it run with it. I have mine installed but haven't hooked mine up yet.I was going to hook up the low but I thought about getting a second controller so I can have one for the high just incase I need it when towing.

I have mine set up on low. The flow the Mark VIII provides seems to be enough (for my driving needs) that it never reached past half way during AZ summer + stop and go. This is w/ 180 t-stat installed.

Ok...thats what I was wanting to know. I have a 180 T Stat and it dont go anywhere near half way unless Im sitting for a long period. I think I might go ahead and get a second controller just in case for whenever Im towing.

My new truck in attachments, 2005 dodge ram 1500 daytona 5.7l hemi 4x4 only mods are TBS and CAI. looking at tuner but torn between edge evolution and superchips (i am after mpg gain not hp) and looking to get rid of the 20" rims for 17's or 18's. also looking for lift kit or leveling kit and more aggressive tires. bought last week with 130,000 km, detailed and all fluids changed.

I know thats what i hear. I just plan on lifting the truck a touch and putting more aggressive tires on it and would like to have the same ****ty 13 - 14 mpg with that instead of lower. so in the end if i can have what i have now i would be happy, i didnt buy a truck for its economy rating but it sucks to have a nice truck and not be able to drive it everywhere you go (mines my only vehicle and daily driver) kinda need one when ur a farmer
