2006 Ram quad cab 2wd, 5.7 hemi w/sport package. The truck is basically loaded and has 37,000. The price I got them to was 16,495 with free oil changes for 4yrs/48k (max of 12) and the truck is dealer certified, which extends the warr. They would not budge any further on price.
The truck is clean and rides great
I would love any/all opinions.
Thanks.
I got my 06 QC with 38,000 4WD, 5.7 for $17,000 with free oil changes for life and 1 free complete car detail (interior/exterior) a month. I was happy with my deal.

I wonder why?
I was told that it was traded for a Grand Cherokee.

The dealership you are looking at has it listed on ebay motors with an advertised price of $16,495. Was on craigslist for a price right under 18,000.

Maybe see if they would do the deal at $15,495.
They would not budge off the 16,495. I tried to get step bars thrown in and the salesman thought he could do it but the mgr came into the office and when he was told they cost 500 he said he could get them for me at a discount but not throw them in. The only other thing he would give me was the oil changes.

So it sounds like a good deal then?

No Problem. I say go for it. You'll love having it fully loaded. If I was a dealer I wouldn't sell it for any cheaper than that either. Just my opinion.
