    Hi all. After reading the forums for several months I finally took the plunge and got myself a 2016 Ram 1500 Sport Quad Cab in white. Coming from a Nissan Frontier this is quite a change, actually lightyears of difference. I just hope the Ram is as reliable as the Fronty. I thought I would...

    So turned off by Ram dealers

    Actually we were just talking dealer rebates and not factory rebates. Then again, maybe they could also be a bit more transparent with their rebates. In any case, I have not experienced this type of pricing at Nissan, Subaru, BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Jaguar, Volvo or Volkswagen ever and I have...

    So turned off by Ram dealers

    So I have been looking at my first Ram 1500, my first Chrysler products ever. I normally contact 3 or 4 dealers via email and ask for quotes and when we get close to a number I like, I will go visit the dealership for final negotiations. Not so with Ram. 3 of the 4 dealers refused to send me...
