Default Finally got it! NEW PICS!!!!

New to the stable, my first Dodge, first Hemi and first truck. 08 1500 QC Laramie with DVD/NAV, moon roof, LSD, Tow Package, Chrome Clad 20s, and Life time Maxcare. Pretty cool so far. I seem to be having issues while trying to get on it, kinda cuts out a little. Not sure if it's me trying to find the powerband or what......

Also, anyone tried to remove the chome clad hub caps and if so what's underneath.

Lastly, I researched this truck like crazy cause I knew I was gonna keep it for life. I also researched dealers like crazy. I ended up at Carl Burger's Dodge World in La Mes, CA. If anyone is thinking of a Dodge or Jeep purchase, you won't go wrong with these guys. Ralph Lawlor hooked me up big time. Very professional group there. Delivered the truck I wanted and at a great price. Yeehaw.... now we can hit races all over the western states.

I'll try and post some pics soon.

When i got my 07, my dealer told me drive it easy for the first 500 miles. During the first 500 he told me to run her on cruise at 40 mph for 20 miles, then bump it up to 55 for another 20 miles, then hit 65 for 20 miles to train the computer. Hope it helps.

OK, here are the pics I hope........

One of the first things I'm gonna do is level out. Not sure if I should drop the rear a little or raise the front. Wish I could do a chip or programmer but I hear they leave a footprint and don't want to void the warranty. Gonna throw in an amp and sub after that and then who knows.

Now anyone wanna trade my chrome clads of the aluminum wheels. Must be kinda local to So Cal.
