Red face Going to order a TRX4 reg cab short 4.7L tomorrow

What can I expect for pricing? Right now I'll get EPP and 2500 Northest rebate. My only bargaining chip is my trade, 2001 Dakota in nice shape which is worth ~3600 acccording to Edmunds (trade-in price). I'll get Inferno red, remote start, premium sound, light (luxury) group and under rail bed liner, Thanks!

Didnt know you could order the trx4 in a reg cab short bed, sounds like a good offroader. What gears are you going with and are you sure you dont want the hemi, commercials say free hemi upgrade

Yes, definiately go with the hemi. I got my hemi for free due to the hemi discount. You cannot beat it. I drove mine long distance for the first time this past weekend and it is like butter when you need to pass some one on the interstate. It does not phase the truck to go from 70 to 80. It is fantastic. Hemi is the only way to go.

Yeah, I think there would have to be some pretty unusual and strange circumstance to make the 4.7 a reasonable choice. Better mileage, 80 more horsepower...

I have to agree with everyone else. Most important thing on the list should be the Hemi. You'll regret it later if you don't get it.

OP here, I won't be ordering a truck today! I got jerked around by the dealer, his EP+ was $400 less than on-line and he only offered me $1500 for my trade (Kelly Blue Book is $3000 - 3400 as a trade-in and I bought the truck from them). No discount on the net pricing (MSRP - EP+ -$2500 rebate). Also told me I needed to put 20% cash down to get 0%/48 months. I was not happy when I left the dealership, they claimed that since it was "Good Friday" they weren't able to verify the pricing (it was 3PM)... Now I have some time to rethink that Hemi...
