If you’re only wanting a grill guard, check CL. I got mine there for a good price. Fords are easy to find good ones, especially since the new body style just came out. Not sure how many Dodges (Rams) are listed though

I've been checking...they're hard to come by for the Ram.

I ordered new LED headlights for the TV today. Sorry all you Ford & Chevy guys...it's for a Ram. I'm sure there's something similar for y'all. I already installed the backup LED's from Diode Dynamics and was more than happy! So I figured I'd try the regular headlights!



Edit: Sorry...meant to post to the "what did you do to your TV" thread.

You’ll really love how the LED bulbs light up the road. I replaced my stock bulbs some time back and could not believe how much better the LEDs were.

Here's a novel idea; instead of investing in critter/crash resistant grills and high powered headlights you simply get off the road come dark. Enjoy the slow(er) life.

Not an option. For many of us our tow vehicles double as our daily drivers. This time of year, I leave in the morning and come home at night in the dark. Someday when I can fully retire I will follow your advice.

Sharp looking truck, DRT! I really like the matte blackout look. Is that a factory offering now or did you do that custom?

Thanks. Turns out it’s just the light from the shot. The truck is a gloss black but I agree a Matte finish would be a bad looking truck. Thanks again for the kind words shrp.

As Midnightmoon stated, this is not an option. I too leave for work in the morning when it’s still dark but even if I didn’t, the deer are still out during the day. Both the DW and I had our deer meet vehicle encounters during the daytime. Here’s my novel idea: you enjoy your slow life and I’ll enjoy my Ranch hand grill and my zombie lights. [emoji3]

2013 Ford E-350 XLT Super Duty

I just purchased a new(to me) 2013 Ford E-350 XLT Super Duty, factory tow package, one owner, factory certified warranty, with 23,500 miles... pretty excited!
I've been looking for 6 months and found this online on a Sunday. I emailed the dealer in Memphis and he called me 7:30 Monday morning. I flew to Memphis on Tuesday and the salesman picked me up at the airport. Bought the vehicle and was on the road back to Charlotte by 4 pm.

Very nice. I have a soft spot for vans and that is a sweet one. Congratulations.

I'm wondering if it was used by a church with so few miles in mint condition. I took the rear seat out for the dog and misc tools and gear and will leave the center two seats.

It's too few miles to be a fleet vehicle and the fog lights in the front bumper tell me it was a private owner vehicle. Could have been from a church as you said possibly but my gut tells me that it was a private owner unit.

I purchased my van new in 2015 and it just now has 13K miles on it. Sometimes secondary or specialty vehicles like a large van can be found with very low miles and limited use.
