Default Need help locating a truck

Apparently, trying to find a 2007 Ram 1500 Sport 4x4 with leather interior is HARD!! I live in VA and have been checking up and down the east coast and havent found one yet!

If anyone knows of one on a dealer lot near them, PLEASE let me know as my dealer is willing to do a transfer, if I can find one, as they say they cant find one within a 500 mile radius. I know the members here stretch a LOT farther than 500 miles. :-)

Thanks for the help!!

-Mike

Yes I do need one because (1) my truck sucks at gas mileage, cuz its an overweight pig, (2) the sport looks sexy as hell, and (3) its cheaper!

I would put in aftermarket leather and get one with cloth but the 3 I found on the ENTIRE east coast, all have options I dont really want, which drives the price up.

If you can find me one on your lot highduke, I would greatly appreciate it !!!

and 94rt10, I cant buy your truck, im going to be trading mine in. Unless you want mine....

The leather in mine is aftermarket. But do not use 1 as a reason to trade it in. You will not see any decent MPG improvement in any Ram you buy, well unless you buy a diesel. Will not argue the sport looks better

I even tried to get into a diesel, and those suckers are priced WAY out of my budget (40k +). I built a Sport with leather, hemi, protection group, anti-spin axle, remote start, black exterior, dark gray interior and it came to $37,010 MSRP. And since my dealer is offering $12,000 off sticker, that will eat up my negative equity. I am still pissed they think my truck is only worth $23,000 but whatever, I cant find a price to contradict them.

Not the same MPG, the Sport is 800lbs lighter. For example, would you get more tired and use more energy running a mile by yourself, or having my 260lbs on your back? Thought so, lighter uses less fuel, less energy, etc. Granted, its RATED the same, but it wont GET the same.
