I get quite a few compliments on the color of my truck. It def sticks out like the yellow rams do.

He's got Cooper LTZ's. I think they fit his truck nicely. I don't like the overly huge tire just because you have a lift. I like tires that form to the wheel well arch. i think his front is too high for those tires and I just don't like the "California lean" style at all. i think he did 2.5" level on the front which makes the front tires look kinda small.

I think he said he is going to get tires when he gets his 6" lift.

I was looking at a Sunburst Orange when I bought my truck. Only thing...It was fully loaded and had all the painted bumpers and trim. Too much Orange for me. I also like the chrome bumpers so less worry about scratches or damage

At night it almost looks brown like my 69 Road runner was. The pearl base makes it look different in all shades of light. It doesn't show a lot of dirt either, which is good because I like to keep my rides clean!!

If there's a coating of light dust on the hood, then it's dirty! i guess I'm a bit OCD?

I plan on it when I get the suspension 6" lift, havent decided if I am going to stay with 20's or go down to 17's or 18's. I will be getting M/T's, probably Toyo's.

I like the Cooper's not a bad tire, way better than the stock POS. Some pics it looks like my front end to higher than the back and in others it looks level, never really measured. I did do a 2.5" level along with a body lift.
