Well after a week of my truck being in the shop for, stuck in 4th gear, evic telling me I had a LED taillight out ( which I didnt), dash board resetting while driving, I couldn't take it anymore...Traded it in... I had a 13 1500 Laramie 4x4 Crew cab, traded for a 2015 1500 sport 4x4 crew cab 6'4" box HEMI

I feel I got a good deal, I got 34,600 for my 2013, new truck was 42750 out the door... Gladly wrote the check for 8150.00
Did not want car payments again!

Really like the new 8 speed too

42k out the door is a sweet sweet sweet deal, MSRP on our trucks are 49-50k. Mine came out to 45k out the door after all payments and all. Trade in value was very generous as well! Good looking truck man!

That's a great trade in value, you got a sweet deal

I agree, just makes you wonder how much they made on my new truck, I only paid 43k for my 2013... It had 31000 miles on it.. To give me 34,600 makes me wonder what they will sell it for.. I'll def be checking.

Taxes is our only difference.

Sounds like you had a bad body control module - BCM. Mine was doing the same thing and like you, I'm thinking of trading mine for a 2015 Sport Crew with the 6'7" bed.

That's exactly what the dealer told me. They did order a new BCM, it was going to take another week to get it. Once I heard "another week " I said :flipthebird:I'll just trade it in. I could have waited, but used this as an excuse to get a new truck. :)

They gave you top dollar for it even though it still needed the BCM? Mine has been on order for 3 days so far and it is killing me NOT to look at other trucks. I wanted to wait until mine was fixed first. Funny thing is that I asked the dealer about trading and the guy told me that I still have a good truck and even after this, he wouldn't trade it if it were his. That made me feel a little better but I'm still thinking about it.

nice truck and another great trade. Back in the day people would loose so much money on there trades. Not now people are always posting how great of a deal they got. I think I'm going to go see what kind of deal i can get on mine.

Yep, it was covered under warranty. Getting top dollar for my trade is one reason I made the deal. I knew if I didn't get out now, I'd never get that much for it if I kept it another year or two.
