Default Pull the trigger on 2009 or wait for 2010?

What do you suggest -- that I pull the trigger on a 2009 2500HD CTD sitting on a local dealer's lot, equipped essentially exactly how I would have ordered it from the factory, or wait for the next gen 2010 HD? The deals right now.....and the buyer's itch.....are what's causing me the dilemma.

No comments on 3rd generation vs. 4th generation?

Emissions are supposed to be even tighter for 2010.
That probably means decreased economy...

Straight to the point -- love it. I want to SO badly. I've made it to the final stage of recruitment for fulltime firefighter and will know by the 28th. If I make it, I'm pulling the trigger.

Do it the deals are out there. besides my dad just bought a new one and is loving it. I just wish he would have given me a chance at his old one.

Go for it. If you wait for the new one you will probably have to wait for accessories and you will get all the first year bugs.

I bought my 2009 Ram 3500 6.7L six months ago. It is bone stock and has given me ZERO problems. I love this truck.
