Default newbie, first Dodge

Hello, I just purchased my first Dodge last week, a 2005 Ram quad cab SLT with a hemi and only 46k on it. I traded my beloved BMW 740il for it because I really needed a truck for work. I have already discovered how much I missed customizing/modding vehicles (not easy to do to a big bimmer). So far I have ordered a Pioneer nav unit, new speakers, an AQ amp, and Alpine R sub. I plan to add cai and cat back exhaust soon.

Also already discovered (I think) through the forum why I have a wet spot under the rear seat--going to remove the third brake light and reseal it in the morning.

Yes, it did. I used the frost king weatherstripping fix I found here to reseal my third brake light and it passed both the hose and the car wash test.
