Nice looking truck! Love that color! I recently bought a '18 2500 with the 6.4 and 6 speed and like it so far. I haven't noticed any sluggishness but I'm coming out of a '97 5.9 gas so any new truck feels strong.....

Thankfully they've gone back to CP3 pumps on the 2021 CTD Rams, but even with the risk of a $10,000+ repair bill to replace the entire fuel system because the CP4 pump catastrophically failed gone, I wouldn't want a diesel nowadays.  Def fluid, regen, etc, all things I say no thanks to.  Not to mention all the algae in the fuel if you don't drive it every day.
Diesels can still be ok if you drive and tow a lot, but otherwise gas is the only way to go now.  :alan2cents:
Here are the aftermarket motorized steps I'm interested in.

I'm not a "blingy" type guy, so don't want to be adding chrome.  I spent the bucks for the sport package specifically because the new grille is just too much chrome for my tastes so I had to tone it down!  I want running boards that don't catch your eye much, if not retractable, something black. 
I've got weak feet so need good strong steps.  And something that won't rust.
Any recommendations would be welcome, for if I decide not to opt for the retractable ones.
