Found this one at a local dealer! Had the RamBox and 3.21 gears, so not for me, but I love the color and the sport hood.

That's a badass truck, but I agree that the gearing and boxes kill it.

You might want to do some extra digging on the gearing in these trucks.. From what I was told and shown, 3.92 is a "standard option" in all 13' thru 14' Sport trucks. I looked at the ram book that shows optional equip and standard and the Sports all have 3.92 rears..
For this reason right here;
When I was looking at my current trucks and others.. I found a lot of dealer sites having this listed.
3.21 Rear Axle Ratio
Dual Rear Exhaust with Bright Tips
3.92 Rear Axle Ratio
Anti-Spin Differential Rear Axle
After really digging into it with several dealerships and eventually RAM support group... I found that 3.92 is a standard option in the Sports. Someone explained what the 3.21 was but I cannot remember.....

Hmm, the Ram site and all the window stickers I've looked at showed 3.92s as a $50 option. At at rate, it's one of those non-negotiable options. LOL. I really don't want two undergeared vehicles, I hate the 3.09s in the Jeep. I don't know why they couldn't have stayed with 3.45s, at least as an option.
I like the one you posted, but it's still more than I want. I don't want the fancy park assist, Alpine stereo, CD player, or sunroof. I'm also considering staying with the standard cloth seats. I'd lose the ventilated seats and passenger power seat. Then I could go with some nice Katskin leather seats with suede inserts. I also want the 6' bed. It's only $300 more and my bed cover would swap right over. The truck I've built comes in at $48,295 and I think I could get it for right at $40k or a little under.

I like it man.
I did all the reading on it last night. Looks like some good upgrades with the 14' PW!
What are you thinking now Morgan?

As sweet as it would be (minus the graphics), I still don't need a 2500 or Power Wagon...
