Got my first Dodge product ever today. Was looking at the used market and only coming up with crap and junkers, like pickups with 70K for 19,999 asking price. I got sick of it all and started shopping new. Not impressed with GMC or Chevy, Ford does not have a manual in the new F-150, so looked at Dodge. I found what I like, a somewhat stripped down RAM 1500 but with the towing package ( manual tranny ) and some nice things like CD player and cruise. MSRP 21,500. Bought it for 17,135.

It's white with the chrome wheels, gonna get a Line-X bedliner in it in a week or so and put my radio stuff in it and I'll be set for a while. Hopefully I'll do right by Dodge. I saw a lot of pickups in the used market for more money with hi mileage so I think I did better by going new. Also I havent had a new vehicle since 1986.

 

Congratulations!! Got any pics of it yet?? Sounds like you got a great deal!! Glad to have you here, hope to see you often.

Great, and welcome to DF. We would love to see pics of your new Ram. New is definately the way to go, plus you get the 7/70K warranty too.[sm=smiley20.gif]

 

Thanks yall. I'll post some pics later today. It looks like a white RAM with shiny wheels.

but yeah, I post sum pics. Nice thing about the price is the payments are rather cheap too ( under 250 @ month with the 3K down ) [8D]

 

Here's the new truck - hope this works.....

Good Looking truck, and welcome to the forum. You should do just fine with the Dodge...

 

Nice, very nice. They look really good in white.[sm=smiley20.gif]

 

Just got back from the first trip as well as the first tank of gas. I got around 566 miles from a tank o gas, 30% city, 70 country, for 19.51 MPG. And it will get better as the motor breaks in more. Hope to be up to 21 when I hit 4000 miles.

I am also at 2 thumbs and a finger. Two thumbs up and 1 middle finger from a Ford F-250 driver!

 

Very nice truck. White looks good! I got my 2003 5.7 HEMI Quad Cab for 24,765, but it was used. I did the math and roughly my trucks price came out to 42,343 I robbed them!

It's hard to talk price with NEW truck dealers, I normally strike out, but it sounds like you got a sweet deal.


Ford boys can lick my NADS! I'll RAM a Ford anyday of the week.
