Default My 2011 slt or a 12 Express

I seen a 2012 Express on the lot today so i had to look, Drove it and it deff has some grunt with the Hemi, my slt has the 4.7 and the luxuriesthat come with it, So i told them work the numbers and lets see wat happens, im payn 320 monthly for my 2011, i owe 16,000, dealer will give me the 16,0000 for mine and with the rebates the 2012 is 21,000 and change, payments of about 450.00 no money down, of course i dont have the luxuries but i get the grunt so idk if i should keep what i got or go for the Express, im more for GO than show if you know what i mean, Im unsure of what to decide??

Keep your SLT and pay it down. Trade it in when your get some profit out of it. You don't want to break even or have negative equity. Just trade it in on an SLT or higher when you do go to trade and make sure it's got the Hemi. Then you get the little things to go with the grunt.

My 02... If you don't like your current truck, then unload it ! Just do your homework first before doing another deal. If performance is a prio, then be sure you also get the 3.92 or 3.99 LS gears ( not sure if 3.92 is still an option ). Do not buy the wrong truck 2x or have to spend $2k+ on regearing !
