Very basic, but I really enjoy this truck

Hi all, looking for advice/anecdotes/opinions on this matter.

I'm looking to buy an RCSB, V8 truck. Not picky about RWD/4WD at all. Currently, I'm looking for a ~2019-2023MY truck, and would like to know how the two compare. I'm very fond of the Ram's styling, but given that I own a Jeep already, know that it's likely to be the less dependable one. Can anyone comment on how the 5.7 has treated them?

My concern with the F-150 is that it'd be less of a sporty feeling truck, as well, is this true? I haven't had a chance to drive one given that they are exceedingly rare in my area. Not concerned with towing at all, the heaviest I'd be pulling is ~4k lbs. Moreover, as this is going to be a DD, modifications will be kept minimal (rear drop, audio, wheels, etc...).

Overall, I'd just like your votes on which truck to swing for. I am a Mopar guy and love the look and feel of the Ram, but I have some doubts. Given that I'd be owning the truck for 4 years where I will be much, much too busy to give it the same attention that my Jeep needs, is it the wrong choice? Am I, in fact, misinformed, and either truck would be a PITA?

I get that what I'm asking is akin to saying "do you think that the Eagles are better than the Cowboys?" but any advice or comments on what they're like to own/drive is welcome and appreciated.

My stepfather does financing for Gabrielli trucks and was showing me some of the cooler trucks he’s financed and I feel like this is putting out the right RCSB vibes.

Just got new wheels and 4” lift put on. Pumped how it came out! (Will get better pics at some point)

Been driving and restoring it since 2022. Brand new crate 5.7 and some aFe Twisted Steel headers w/ tune. Belltech lowering shocks and springs, Hellwig sway bars, and Whiteline rear control arms. Just needs a diff rebuild, new wheels and a tune on dyno.

I just recently purchased a 2026 regular cab pro 4x4 and I am trying to swap out this lower skid plate for a chrome one but I can’t find any videos on how to remove it and change it. I seen one saying it can only be changed on AT4 and Denali bumpers. Is this true? Has anyone had any luck on changing this part? If you guys have any videos that can help, that would greatly be appreciated.
