Default Just saw my new ride!!!

My ram came in the dealership yesterday,was at the dealer when the doors opened this morning,I am blowen away what a truck!! Its a silver 09 laramine crew, fully loaded, the only thing a didnt order was the ram box, the back up camera is awsome! soon as you shift to rev the color camera comes on nice and clear,the locking tail gate does not work with the power door locke,s, but you get a little key which slides into the master, I ordered the alpine 10 speaker system, sounds terrific, you loose all the storage under the rear right passenger seat as that is where the sub woofer is, but you get a in floor storage on each side of the rear floor, The exaust has a nice tone too it and its a real smooth ride compared to my 06 sport, I pick it up on monday!!

I love my Laramie as well. Only thing I don't have is the backup camera and locking tailgate. Will be on order soon.

I was really surprised It came in so early I live near Toronto and I ordered it on Jan 26, the day the rear camera could be ordered, Truck went down the line monday March 2nd and at the dealer march 11!!! My salesman just called me and informed me I qualified for a new loyalty program just out today and I will save another $2500,sounds good to me! might have to wait a little longer to get the truck perhaps 2-3 days as I need to give him a cert# which was sent to me tuesday,in order to recieve the 2500 program here, runs for 9 days only I was told.

Congrats on the truck! I'm sure you will love it. Why on earth do you have to wait until Monday to pick it up if the dealer already has it today? They should be able to prep it and have it ready in one day. Is no way I could wait an entire weekend if I ordered a vehicle and knew it was already there!

Back up camera? Must be nice! I am still getting used to backing mine in. I think I am close enough, get out to walk to wherever I am going, then look to realize there is still 4 ft of room in between me and another vehicle, tree, etc.

Don't have the backup sensors? I get within 4 inches.

"4 inches Pyle, 4 inches"! (Full Metal Jacket, sorry, had to!)

I drove a Neon for a year and a half and need a little more time to get back my reversing skills in a truck.
