Default New Truck! Free HEMI and Lifetime Powertrain Warranty!

It's a bright silver 2010 Big Horn Quad Cab 4X4 with a 5.7 and Sport wheels. Truck was about $29,500 and came with a free HEMI upgrade AND a free lifetime powertrain warranty. I was going to get custom wheels instead of paying the $1000 for the Sport wheels upgrade but the dealer came down to $600 on them so it was easier to just get them put on and be done with it. I'm also getting the Mopar tubular steps and the chrome fuel filler door. These Rams are awesome trucks... and I hope to learn a lot from this forum!

Congrat's on the new truck. Good choice on the wheels. It is the only thing I didn't get that I wanted. I am just waiting to find a good deal on a new set for my truck, I have the Silver painted now and I want the Chrome ones like you got. Again congrat's and welcome to the forum. You will learn as much as you can absorb.

Thanks, man. TONS of nice trucks... including yours... on this forum.

The dealer came down on the wheels... so I went ahead and got them. I paid 29,500 for the truck and it came with free Hemi and free lifetime powertrain warranty. I'm pretty happy with my Big Horn/Sport Hybred. haha Can't wait to get the steps... and the chrome filler door! I'll probably get the chrome shield too. Makes the front end look great with the silver.

Nice truck Carter, same colour as mine. I Bought the ST model but it came fully loaded except for wheels, I bought some 20" balloon plasti chrome, and will be putting Falkon ZIET STZ04 295/50/20 new rubber on them, they will look amazing.

Congrats on the new truck, exterior colour doesn't do anything to me, cause once I'm inside I don't see it.

Thanks everyone. I really like it. I'm surprised how agile it is for such a big truck. I use to build these in St. Louis and knew I would get one some day. My truck actually only cost me $5000 out of pocket. Chrysler gave me a car/truck voucher with a generous buyout package. I didn't want to leave the company BUT they were making me move far away to a crappy town... in like 2 weeks time. I didn't want to leave my family and friends for a company that I was no longer proud to work for. Plus, Chrysler's odds of survival are 50/50 at this point. I figured I would get out while I could and take advantage of the schooling they give us. But anyway, after building hundreds of thousands of these Rams.... one by one.... I finally got one! Thanks for the compliments on the truck. I think they are the best on the road. A great last hoorah from Chrysler.... to me.
