    Once my Bilsteins got some miles on them, ride degraded an appreciable amount. I don't like the idea of spacers which can allow the wheel enough travel to potentially bind / break a ball joint.
    If the rake bothered me enough, would look to lower the rear vs raise front, would never go leveling kit again.
    Rake on this truck, just enough that I really like how it looks.

    right on. guess when I pull the trigger it will come down to who has the truck I want and if they want to sell it bad enough....meaning working with me on the price.

    first purchase may be some 305/55-20's for it. next might be exhaust, or tint. heard one on youtube with muffler delete and didn't sound to bad, but a little raspy higher in the rpm's.

    ^We have a customer with a muffler delete, truck is also dropped and sounds/looks awesome. The main problem is when it goes into Mds mode it will be unbearable.......apparently the only exhaust to give good sound and still absorb the Mds noise is a made company called Solo, actually I believe they're in T.O., and they'll do the install for free if you buy the system.

    -if additional capacity is needed out back, air bags for these trucks are under $200 and very easy to install (goes inside rear coil springs).
    All true.

    We've had a few issues with the air ride, a small amount though considering how many trucks are sold with it (a ton). But for me it all comes down to longevity, I've repaired and often eliminated many Ford air ride systems, and I know of several Mercedes cars that are off the road due to the cost of replacing air springs. Great system if you want a real pillowy ride (although really the Ram trucks ride great with coils) and are planning to own for only a few years, but for a keeper you'd be better with coils.

    That is one sweet looking Truck. The Laramie package just finishes the Ram off perfectly.

    Carven exhaust is whats on a neighbors truck, sounds pretty good from what I've heard and seen, but I've given people I know strict shoot on site orders if I try to mess with the exhaust of this truck.

    Don't mess with the DD. You need at least one reliable vehicle
