idk i think that there is a large aftermarket for all makes but what it comes down to is the peticular model like yeah i've got a sierra but it's a 4.8...let me know what you can find for a 4.8 that you dont have to spend out the ass for somethin to add on...and as far as the guy with the interior problem i'd build a glass console with katzkin seats...expensive seats but worth the $$$ quality quality quality you get what you pay for

The main reason, custom bolt on parts are not available, you have to fab everything you want to do and everybodys not a fabricater or has the equipment to do so.

I'm From Mass and so far I've been to many Dodge truck shows.

Dodgetruckworld.com is a great place to find out about shows

no you do not have to shorten your driveshaft after a 3/5 drop...i own a 98 dodge ram sport and i have 4/5 drop on it with 20's and the only problem ive had was the ball joints went out

im not sure ethier but i am so tired of seeing all Chevys and Ford trucks have massive amounts of aftermarket parts and no aftermarket parts for Dodges IMO you come out with the same amount of stuff.. and their would be a massive amount of people buying. right now i have to make alot of my custom parts for my dodge because theirs just not alot of sources to go to to get those parts. like my LED kit,neon,sub box,my interior pieces,were the easiest but airbags, brakes performance,some exsterior pieces like more bodykits would be nice i see the sameones all over nothing really unique out their to buy for most of the auto part stores... KMK04 ram out..

I'm an old Chrysler knut, I can do some fabrication of things but what I do mostly is custom paint airbrushing pinstriping ect. http://www.straderstudio.com  The Super Bee was a car just simply raw power as well as the super bird and road runner.  My cousin was a performance tech for Dodge back in those days.  Had a guy who bought a Super bee, brought it back to the dealership cause it was "lunging". Cousin took it out and wound her up really well, Came back and said he got it up pretty fast and it felt great.  The owner said it didn't do it until he got about 1/4 inch or so past the 180 mph marker !!!!!  Dealership owner explained that was the Good Lord telling him to SLOW DOWN !!  Funny story but it was true. Figured I'd share that one.   D.

I am the type of guy who will stand in my garage and work under the hood of my truck. I don't know if you guys are into a lot of power, but I know for a fact that Mopar's are a lot more expensive to work on and get parts for.  Especially the new HEMI's.  They are not cheap motors to build.  That's just a gearhead's opinion.

I have an '03 Ram 1500, and too be honest, the style of the truck is near perfection. What other truck in production has an intimidation factor right off the showroom floor? The new Tundra? Mabye, but not quite. Atleast it doesn't have droopy headlamps like the chevys, or fiberglass flares or rockers as Ford saw fit to dawn. Face it, the Dodge is "stand alone"

you cant drive a dodge hard like you can a chevy or ford without blowind the trans. dodges have the wors transmissions there is, and you hardly ever see a v8 dodge with a standard. who would want to fix up a dodge and have to replace the transmission every time they try to keep up with a chevy.

Cuz they are FUGLY!!!!!!    Rumble Bee my butt!  ALL show and no go!  Look............  I used to enjoy MoPars but they just plain offer nothing special lately.  I have two only because I got them for less than $60 per h.p. and there are NO other vehicles of ANY type with cheaper per h.p. prices today.  .... but GM offers better styling.  Slabsided Fords suck!  They offer no engines and their sides are totally non-descript!
