Awesome truck minus that side stripe. And I don't get the appeal of the four doors. I see those everywhere.

Nice truck! I've been pretty much looking at the same thing, just need to get off my butt and see my price is under the D-plan

How is the ride with the leveling kit vs. stock? Could you tell a difference with the tuner in how the truck shifted/ milage/ performance?

Thanks again guys. Like I said this truck really is amazing in my eyes. Had many over the years but nothing compares to the refinement of this thing. This thing does not get babied either. Tires are the next mod when these wear out. See below lol

This truck stickered for close to 48,000 but with the incentives and discounts with the 13s coming out I paid alot less. Like 10k+ less.

I drove the truck home from dealer and put on the leveling kit so I dont know if it changed the ride much but I dont see how it would. Just spacers with these trucks no need to crank up torsion bars etc and get a harsh ride.

Damn, you don't baby that thing! Any concern with ball joints or anything in the front suspension wearing prematurely with the leveling kit? My previous dodge went through ball joints like crazy with a leveling kit...

No issues yet with close to 10k on the leveling kit. Dont seem like they are at that bad of an angle so guess time will tell.

I noticed on the Hell Bent Steel site they only offer leveling kits for the 04-08 models...I assume they will work on the new trucks also. Is this what you used?

sweet truck, lose the stripe like you have planned and it's perfect. End of the year loaded FX4's were going for around $34-35k in Texas for those interested.
