Default New Kid Hello

Hello everyone,

Just traded my Dodge Ram for '10 GS350 Black with Tan interior. Has factory 18s It was a lease return so seems pretty clean starting the process of changing out all fluids plugs ect. Since Ive not much of a clue how well taken care of it was.

So far I'm in love its a blast on the Highway, I really thought Id miss the Hemi but this things purrss down the toll at 90 and easily more if Im not watching.

Id like to do some tasteful mods my truck I did exhaust, cold air, superchip and wheels. I just grabbed a KN drop in with reward points while I try to figure it all out, Third day with car still learning.

Anyway hello to all here and any opinions and links you can provide to increase my knowledge base of the vehicle and upgrades to work towards would be greatly appreciated. I havent seen much in the way of programmers so guessing that is out.

Cheers

And Taco... Your car looks beautiful with the drop and wheels.

OP, Taco has the F Sport springs and his car looks 'proper'. That is a good place to start with looking for a stance you're happy with.
