09 already has duals and the SLT is supposed to have a nice rumble to it. The Laramie is supposed to have a quieter set of duals.

Splash guards to protect the paint!!!
Factory chrome tube steps
spray in bedliner and a bed cover.

This is the way I'm leaning, but the factory tubes are over 600.00...... OUCH!

Westins are a good quality bar, good looking and much cheaper.

my truck came used with TrailFx steps on it. Trailfx.com, I get compliments all the time on them. very clean and sturdy, easy to clean. I have even had other dodge owners ask me at stoplights about them.....dont know how much they are though.

Well I don't get it until next Wednesday so I'll post a few pictures before departing to the dark dark 4th gen section..... The new truck is a blue sport 5.7L with 20" chrome clad wheels.....I know most of you dont like the shiny stuff, but I have an ATV if I want to get dirty.

I'm waiting for a call from the sales guy right now, I'm going to have him add a couple things to it, the ipod integration kit and the splash guards. Everything else I add will be done away from the stealership.

The deal I made has left me in a financial position to add a couple goodies. I will have about 2k to spend on accesssories of that a bed liner is a must and the wife says she needs step bars. Is there anything else out there that is a "must-have"?
Tuner!!! If you got the hemi the MDS is supposed to be more aggressive on the 09's...which would really suck. I'd put some money aside for the U7137 when they add 09 support.

the 09 dual exhaust is still real whimpy. it has a better growl than the 3rd gens but still not that great at all.

Do not have frist hand knowledge of the 09 headlights, but on my 04, driving lights were a must.
