Hi Folks!!

been lurking around this site for a LONG time, and figured it was time i went ahead and joined it. I've been a member over at RCC for years. LOVE me some mopars. my first rig in highschool was a 87 Ramcharger, which I still have. I got a 93 D250 4 years ago from an old man who drove it to town once a week. it was in amazing shape (except for the typical 90's crappy paint) and i've slowly improved it here and there with wiring fixes, relays, headlamps, etc....the engine is still unmolested - all settings bone stock.

anyway, just wanted to say hi!!

here's a couple pics of my rig

Welcome Matt! You'll find tons of great advice from great people here.
Sweet 1st gen! She looks like she's in great shape. You oughta ride around in some 3rd gen seats before you swap. I have an 08, and I hate my seat. The seat in my 01 was way better. Search around here, you'll see lots of threads about the crappy 3rd gen seats.
If ya get time, put up a couple pics of your ramcharger. I have a soft spot for them. My parents had a 1990 RC. I drove it my senior year of high school. Black with a tan interior, prospector package. 318,auto, 4x4. Loved that truck.

hi kerry

i'll look around about the seats. if i didnt have a kid, i'd get another set of ramcharger seats. the bench is nice, but a taller back sure would be nice for longer road trips. it's definitely not a rush and i'll make darn sure to sit in some before i swap anything.

here are a couple pics of the ramcharger. i drive the ol' gal every time i get the chance. this is one rig i will _NEVER_ part with.

That's awesome!!! I'm always on the lookout for one for sale where I live. I'd love to have one to build a nice trail rig for the family to pound around in.
