Pics of my truck....Linex and Undercover

I know she is just like all the rest but hey I love her so I'm posting a link to my gallery.

The build date was July 04 in Kansas City, I didn't special order it but it had 99% of everything I wanted. I've ordered what it didn't have (skid plates and bed extender).

Waiting on all those add-ons that Ram has promised us is en route for the rail system.

On a side note I've noticed the bed kind of looks like it is doing what a belly dancer would do when I'm on the highway. I don't feel anything but it looks odd in the side mirrors. It is less noticeable now that the undercover is on. Is this related to the dreaded vibe problem?

Jim

Thanks.

That's exactly who put it in. In Glen Burnie right?

I'm very happy with the job they did. Good guess.

Jim

What you're seeing is the 'bed-hop' that has been discussed before as well. The vibe problem is a different issue. Good looking truck!

Thanks for the info Tuff about the bed hop. I'm off to do a search now.

Thumbs up

Nice ride vader.

My kids would kill for that DVD set-up, but my FX4 (selected from the lot) had a moonroof. They'll just have to "survive" with TV, VCR, PS2 and DVD in Mom's Ford E250 hightop conversion van (life is so rough on kids these days). I remember being thrilled when I got to bring an "Etch-a-Sketch" or the handheld electronic football games (with the little "lights" that were supposed to be the players) along for car rides.

My truck does that belly dancer "cha-cha" thing too (and it seems like it is only the driver's side). I can't feel it in the cab, so I don't worry about it - but it always makes me laugh when I see it jiggling back and forth back there. I predict that when I get the Line-X installed, it might be less pronounced.

That is a nice looking rig! Have some 'nanners

Yea I know. They are spoiled but I guess each generation gets it better. I remember having that exact football game, not the one with the passing upgrade btw. I also had the matching baseball. I can also remember my sister and I playing some kind of roadside bingo with cardboard backers with street sighs and you would mark them off. I can remember straining to see signs on the other side of the highway looking for the illusive "Cow Crossing".


Good memories. I think the kids will miss alot of those types of things.
