What's up everyone, new to the forums and new to the RAM community so wanted to check in and say what's up.

I just placed an order this morning for an RHO in Forged Blue with the black wheels. Orders for billet silver/beadlocks weren't available anymore so I pivoted and am actually more stoked on Forged blue. I live in San Diego and ordered through Rob at Tuttle Click in Irvine thanks to finding this forum yesterday! Super happy to have found the forum and Rob at tuttle!

Currently drive a '24 4dr Bronco Wildtrak in Azure Grey (blue) which has been good to me so far, but I miss the space and functionality of a truck. I have been looking casually at truck options... Raptors, etc. and then I heard about the RHO and went and checked one out. Was immediately impressed. The local dealer also gave me a great test drive. Ford on the other hand didn't want to earn my business, and were holding tight to leftover '24 Raptors with zero discount, claiming that Raptors are never discounted!! A simple google search would have told them otherwise, but that's been my experience with Ford dealerships lately...unfortunate to say coming from a Ford guy for my last 2 vehicles (F150 and Bronco).

Thoughts for immediate mods will be:
Ceramic Tint
All Weather Floor Mats
Mud Flaps -Rekgen or Rokblokz (have the same tires on my Bronco and they're rock slingers)
Diamondback SE or 270 Bed Cover
May consider wiring some ditch/A pillar amber lights as well with the SDHQ brackets. Have a nice light setup on my bronco and love the added functionality

Anyways, stoked to be here and happy to join the ram club. Cheers!

Only bought RAM or DODGE for the last 15 years. Welcome to the biggest FORD hating group in the world. We better in all ways possible.

Welcome! Escondido resident here. Truck is shipping now and should have it in about 10 days.
 
Bought my RHO with Rob. Absolutely fantastic buying experience. Great guy, easy process, straight forward.
How long did it take for you from ordering until taking delivery?
 
I brought mine at Marks in Louisiana. I've seen two RHO in L.A. area with Marks license frame. It took only a month to get my California plates. Back in black.
 
Wow just a day later I got a VIN and was informed the truck is in D1 status
 
Welcome!

..and welcome to the FBM Family! I love this freaking truck!
 
Bought a forged blue from Rob as well. Placed order early January and received truck about 10 weeks later. Rob and his team are great. Pricing and number were spot on. No back and forth, nothing. Truck did come with a dent on the side door from shipping and had an issue with a leak from the transmission heater, but they fixed all of it pretty quickly. So far so good! I'm in Corona. Just added a retractable bed cover and cat-back. Next are electric steps and a tint.
