Hope you weren't injured. Will the truck be getting repaired or are you looking for a replacement?
Nice loaner BTW

Thanks sir. No injuries at all. Just cosmetic and bumper damage. I opted to repair and keep what I have.
The ford is a V6 non-ecoboost.. it has some pep. I do like my truck a lot better though and I find it more comfortable. Something about the seating position.
I'm grateful to have a way to get around.

Here's the before and after photos on the Diode Dynamics backup lights. Not the best pics, but I can tell you that in person it makes a huge difference!

Hey Bookemdanno, I see that you have a new ram so when you bought those backup light did you have to install any resistors?

Big1...No resistors. They are plug-n-play! Here's where I got them from:

Got a step for my tire so I can hook up and unhook the fifth wheel
Should be much easier with this.

What did you do to your Tow Vehicle today?
Ordered some weather Tec mud flaps front and rear.

Picked up a set of slide on towing mirrors for my 2016 F150. Should do the trick!

Counting down the days until we pick up our new trailer (April 3rd). Hopefully we have nice weather, I'll tow it straight to the campground!
