OP needs to learn how to code.. I figured out the embed and screenshot them here.

BTW, I see you are from Anderson County TN....Are you from Clinton or Oak Ridge? I retired from the State of Tennessee 20 years LEO and then another year county and a year of Juvenile Probation in Putnam County.

Here's OP's car and then my wife's Challenger...Hers is a 2017 "Green Go" with Southeastern Package...One of 69 cars made that year in this color and package.

I have owned this 1997 Dodge for 21 years. When I moved here to Florida, I decided to paint it. The body and mechanics are excellent, but the paint was faded badly.

Since I was painting anyway, I striped it out with my own custom design.

The stripes look great! I love it when people tastefully Customize their vehicles.

That was the generation that turned me onto the Ram, still love that body style when I see one in nice shape.

Classic white with black stripes always looks tough! And I bet they add about 15 HP.

Yeah I agree, my favorite is the 2nd gen like mine (03), but like yours, our's have the muscular, bulging wheel wells that they did away with mostly on the 3rd gens and up. I like the 3rd gens, but they certainly "chiseled" the edges.
I prefer the softer edges.
