I'll have one. Most likely a 2010 but I've gotta wait like some of the other guys on here. I'll let the stickers get softer and then see how the hybrid turns out. I'd like a powerwagon if possible but with over two years of wait time I'll keep putting money into my 04 ram and then see what happens.

Oh yeah if you want a Hemi jeep done right check out AEV customs.

I wish theyd make a quad cab again, just not into 4 door trucks. Are they making one with a real bed? Havent seen any pics yet. At long last,the H in hemi doesnt stand for "Hype" anymore. Werent the Tundra and Titan both faster 0-60? The interior rules. Ill consider it down the road, I guess if they have an 8 ft bed I can live with the 4 doors. Those mega cabs just look silly, imo, witht that little bed. Its like, do you want a truck or a 4 wheel drive mini van?

I'll reallywant one of the V8CTD models...but not until they get all the bugs worked out though. Prolly round late 2010/2011...always gotta be careful with a first year run of a redesign on top of a newproduct (the V8 CTD)like a few others on here have mentioned. Ya you get the lifetime warranty..but do you really want to deal with the issues...if their are any, and im not saying their will be.....

Have you heard some of the horror stories about the Jeep Grand Cheerokes when they had their last redesign...i think it was 05?..not mentioning it to change the subject...just an example.

I'm going to wait on the CTD model as well. Hopefully there are no bugs in it so I don't have to wait on that either. I've got an 03 1500 Quad Cab with the 3.7L V6 ST model, so anything will be a step up for me. I'd like an SLT model, of course I'd LOVE a Laramie, but we'll see what I can afford when the time comes.

I was thinking about trading in my 06 for an 08 with the new engine. But now I am going to wait and pounce on the first 09 laramie 2500 4x4crew cab with the cummins I find. The engineshould have the kinks out by now, andI love that they finally made the interior better.

I think I read somewhere that the heavy duty trucks will not be ready in 09, probably like the CTDs in 02, carry over old body style??

My gut feeling is the HD trucks will not have a coil rear suspension, we shall see.
