new truck!
2nd dodge i've owned, but this is the best one i've had so far. but i'm ready to get some addons!
first off the pictures:
modifications i want to do ASAP:
fuel filler door:
i dont like it. it looks out of place. i just want a black one that matches the truck. the chrome just seems out of place IMHO. i looked on ebay, but all i can find are billet ones.
level via lifting the front end:
looked through the forum, saw a few different options. still undecided. hoping to make my decision by the end of this weekend so i can order the parts on monday.
rollpan with hidden hitch:
going to go to local auto shops here, due to size/weight and shipping costs it might save me money in the long run. debating between weld or fiberglass. i think the welded ones look a lot cleaner though.
stock OEM navigation:
want a stock one so i can still use the cool u-connect rear view mirror. no luck on ebay, i dont really want to have to resort to the stealership though. unless there is a fix for uconnect with aftermarket indash nav units. (i looked through a few sites/forums, but seems like the general consensus says its not possible...)
oh yeah, thanks for letting me in the forum. i'll try to be contributive!

black is hard to keep clean, but its my favorite color on any car. my prior dodge was white, easy to keep clean.

I was also going to go with the stock navigation. You can find them on Ebay for 500.00 and up. I ended up going with the Pioneer AVIC F90BT just because it has more features than a ome unit. I lost my uconnect but the Pioneer has the bluetooth phone built in and it works just as good as the uconnect and it looks factory installed. I can take some pictures if interested if you want to see what it looks like installed.
