Default No Sport Models?

I'm looking into getting a new Dodge Ram 1500. I love the sport models, but you can't find them anywhere! any idea whats up with this?

I attached a pic of what I'm talking about.

Also, how much did you pick your '09 truck up for? doing some research.

I'm sure there are some still out there, but at this point they're probably pretty well picked over. I bought mine late June, and even then finding one with tons of options was pretty difficult.

Topgun has some of the 2010 build dates. I know they've started making the crew and quad cabs already, but I think their first Sport isn't scheduled to roll off the line for another few weeks.

At this point you'd probably be better off putting in an order with your dealer for a 2010 and getting the color and options you want.

As Warhorse mentioned, they have been pretty well picked over for months. Unless the dealer had one on order that was built when they restarted production but before the model year changeover, you will be hard pressed to find any on the lots. The 2010 Sports will not be in production until 10/19/09 so if that is what you are looking for, I'd probably just order exactly what you want.

25L was my code, but I have a RC.

The shutdown this spring/summer and cash for clunkers pretty much cleaned them up.

You may end up having to get a 10 or going a longer distance. Did you use Dodge.com and search? You can go up to a 200 mile radius of your (or any) zip code you enter. Not to metion you can specify only show me QC Sports, ect.
