Default new 2009 laramie

I am new to trucks and the forum. I just picked up an 09 laramie with every option except the rear seat dvd cuz I have a sunroof.

All i can say is I am very impressed. My wife worked for Daimler and we have always got new cars yearly. I am shocked at the fit and finish on this vehicle. I have read some complaints on this forum about a few things but due to the nature of my wifes employment we have had probably 20 new cars over the past 6 years(all from Chrysler, Mercedes, and now Hyundai). This thing is more impressive than anything before.

Yes the E class kills it on the highway but this truck has a lot of things on the same level. I read lots of complaints on the stereo but it sounds better than the Harmon Kardon stuff in the Benz for sure...

anyhow I am excited, and also glad to learn from some feedback that my badge removal was not a big mess up!

I went from a 2005 E55 AMG to a new loaded 2010 Laramie HEMI Crew Cab. I couldn't be happier. I am also in the NW

I have an 09 Laramie too and I think its awesome. I did put an aftermarket DVD player for my little girl. It's better than what Dodge would have put in. I can't imagine a truck better than this.
