TFL Truck just posted their Press Day video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tq_WDmAAqWw Edit: Just a walk around; Driving video will come Monday.

I just did the roll on Raptor and am pretty happy with it. I don't have any pictures yet and obviously no long term report, but I do like the texture and it seems pretty tough. From looking around before I did my coating project the muti-part mixture kits seemed to have the best reviews. Are...

I did not have any luck with the fender mount on my Ram; the bracket didn't really seat right and rubbed on the hood lid. The mount I had did have an NMO hole pre-drilled though. Your mileage may vary since it's a different truck. I was able to find a shop that did an NMO mount install locally...

It's not just a rumor, Ford has announced the diesel is coming. Speculation is that it will be a 3.0L similar to or the Lion engine used in the Range Rovers. Ram's 3.0L is rated for 19/29 with 25 combined. I'd imagine Ford will be very close to this. Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

Decked Install My Decked system came in on Friday and I swung by 4 Wheel Parts during my lunch to pick it up. IMG_20170428_123223 by ebeiersdorfer, on Flickr It was a bit tough to get it installed this weekend with all the rain; I initially started putting everything together Friday when I...

Nice looking truck. I looked at the XD when I bought the Ram, but the fuel economy on the 3.0L made my decision. I've averaged right at 25 over 35k miles and I can get a tank average at the 30 mark on long road trips. Rumor is Cummins was actually trying to get that engine put in a Ram 1/2 ton...

Yup, it all depends on the options. Sunroof, Air Suspension, Leather Seats, etc all add up to a decent amount of weight you loose from your payload. I'm near the top end of the ratings since I have a low trim level, the only thing keeping me from up top is the largest wheelbase (CC 6'4") they...

Will do. Got a call from 4 Wheel Parts saying they will have it in Friday. So I should get it all installed this weekend. Edit: Just saw you had the XD. How do you like the diesel in that? Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

So it's going to vary a bit depending on how you have your truck optioned out. I have the Tradesman Crew Cab, 6'4" Bed, 4x4, and a 3.92 rear end. Using Ram's site this gives me 1,300# payload and 8,700# towing. Swapping out to the V8 gives 1,510# payload and 10,200# towing. The lower payload...

Pulled the trigger on a Decked system today. I think it'll be really useful for how I use my truck and also serve as a sleeping platform for the camping trips. The design of my back seat platform cuts out some of the interior cab storage that I use and this ultimately pushed me to order; I've...

Nope. I have the Tradesman trim level and you don't get the platform, I don't think they start including them until you hit the SLT or the Big Horn. I tried looking around for parts but since they aren't very common to buy after the fact I found it was around $500 for the setup. I've seen a few...

Dog Platform - Part 2 Got some more work done on the dog platform this week. Pretty much everything is complete except for a strip down the bed side to keep it level and the paint job. Drilling the Pocket Holes. IMG_20170421_203829 by ebeiersdorfer, on Flickr The vert pieces coming...

Are there any forums specific to the Colorado Duramax? There is a pretty popular one for the EcoDiesel and it is a wealth of knowledge on things like the DPF system, especially when vendors who work on the tunes chime in. I've been able to gather estimate regen distances, when the dealer alert...

Thanks everyone! Yeah I'm sure LineX would hold up great, but I'm sure it's not worth it on this project. I only spent around $10 on the sheet of ply and a few hours of my time. I was looking to go roll on to not have to mess with the compressor (I could probably borrow one, but don't have my...

I'm working on a gear platform/level floor for the rear of my truck cab and debating on how I want to finish it. Looking at doing either carpet or just a roll on bed liner. I think the bed liner would be easier to get completed and in my case might look better. For those that have used bed...

Dog Platform After the last trip to the dog park I got really annoyed with my crate setup. Currently the only place the crate works is sitting on top of the back seat, with the passenger seat in the right position to pin from falling off. Since I bought the Tradesman trim level I don't have...

Looks great! The cabinets are some really nice work. The pins on the tie downs were a good idea. I've been trying to figure out how I want to do my bed and the tie down if I built something was something I was unsure of. You got any pictures of the whole truck with the Flippac on it? Mostly...

The short bed and standard bed systems are each the same length between the different truck models, this helps them keep cost down. 75.25" length overall. So on the Ford you'll have a 5-6'" gap between the end of the system and the tailgate. https://shop.decked.com/pages/technical-specs

Yeah the Response might not have the best wake for skiing out of the Big 3, but it is a much better on lake boat with the tower design and things like the wedge. Honestly on wake alone the Echelon was better skiing, but add in the Zero Off and other features the Response was a nicer boat...

I think this is most important and deciding factor. Wide open forest roads or open rock trails, go with the '15. But if you are looking to go on tight trails and do some more rock crawling type of adventures I'd go with the '02. I know the 7.3 is worshiped as the gold standard and everyone hates...
