Default $650.00 for complete tow package

I tell you these Stealerships are crazy, but you get what you pay for. Could have gotten a cheaper package at uhaul, but I like factory look and warranty.

I guess Florida Dodge stealerships are hurting pretty bad. The hitch is the same one no matter where you live if it's the OEM one. So you and I should pay the same price right. But O know that can't happen. The only difference should be tax, I don't know who's worst. Gas stations or dealerships. Ok I'm done venting now, lol.

WOW, that's a crazy cheap price. If you think $650 is high, you don't want to know how much a Benz tow package costs.

Thanx Vectorz now I don't feel too bad. By the way when I first posted this tread I was at the stealership waiting for them to finish the install. While I was waiting I was going thru the magazines and found a10% off coupon for any mopor assesory. I couldn't tear that bad boy off fast enough. Long story short final bill was $627.05.

@ Vecttorz, it was the dealerships brochure promoting the different services they offer.

@ CPW, I'm not sure what class it is. I do know I can tow 7200lb, I ask my service advisor. It's the official hitch for our D's. Hope this answered your questions.

Ah could be the labor rates also, anyways at 627 OTD not bad.


I would double check the 7200lbs. since its just the hitch and not the tranny cooler, oil cooler like that come stock it may be a little less weight than that. I was looking into this for my d and the v6 is rated for about 6500, but if it wasnt the factory trailer package (not dealer installed) it brought the rating down to like 5-5500

Thanx for the heads up. I will certainly fine out.
