Gotta Problem
so i was in town the other day and i was passing one of the dealers around here and all that. well there trying to get ride of there 07 3/4 tons pretty quick. well there knocking off like 12k to 15k off of some and 2 of them are jacked up and have 6 in skyjacker lifts and 35in procomps already installed on them. also the have the 5.9 in them and leather 4wd all the same as the truck i have now. my question is should i stop by and see if they can give me the same deal or maybe even cheaper. it wouldnt hurt to ask huh?? i mean ya the lift and tires come from a dealer and all that but what would u guys do??. let me know some info. sorry i had to type this fast and all that cause im kinda busy. laterz.
First off, the dealers mark upthe trucks w/ lifts and all the bling bling on them a good $10,000. Not worth it, especially if you want to go another route w/ a suspension down the road. Don't be that sucker. Also the lifts that they put on are for looks and riding in them feel like crap (pavement queen). Stick w/ what you got and do your own suspension/tires/wheels for less if that what you want to do w/ your truck.
When i bought my truck, they had a few jacked up trucks on the lot. Look at the little sticker next to the invoice or msrp. it is titled ADM or
Additional Dealer Markup. THis is hwere they HAVE to tell you the price of what they added to the truck. Well, what they are charging anyway. Most of the time, you will be shocked to see they are charging you 2800 for a $1700 lift. and 2500 for 1500 in tires/rims. 1000 for a six hundred dollar grille guard. etc.
Not all of them do this, but 99% seriously over charge for these parts.
My suggestion is go look, see what it has, and what they are asking for it/each additional part. Get prices on what these items would cost you online and to do yourself, or even at a shop. You will be suprised at how much cheaper it is to add yourself.

went by and talked to them about it all. trucks where nice but the price just wasnt right. plus what really pissed me off was they only offered 28k for a trade in on my truck. i was like the hell with that lol. i gonna keep mine and throw some of the same stuff on it
thanks everyone.
