Hi everyone.....new member here. Enjoying the forum. Just picked up a '15 Sport last week. Had to give up my beloved 2013 Durango R/T, but the Ram is better suited to my towing needs and a bit easier to clean too. These trucks are nice!

That's a great truck!!!!!!. I have the same one but in the blue streak color. I almost bought it in white, but that dealer wasn't in a dealing mood that day.

Thanks all.....that's funny martian, because I was looking for a black crystal metallic like the Durango, but the dealer wouldn't come down enough either. Went to another dealer and I wasn't really looking for white, but I liked it in person. At 9k off I couldn't resist and liked it even more, ha ha. Hood graphics next. Gotta make this white "pop".

Yeah, I was thinking that if I went with the white I was gonna paint two blue racing stripes and then that truck would've looked bad ass. The hood graphics really do look awesome on the white trucks. I already ordered a roll x cover for mine and I'm waiting for the HID lights to come out so I can upgrade from these ugly halogens.

How long were u negotiating to get the 9k off. I was able to knock off 8788 exactly. I was shooting closer to the 10k mark, but they didn't wanna budge any more so I was ok with what I got. Plus I had been there for like over an hour already so I wanted to close the deal and drive a new truck.

if you dont mind me asking, what was the sticker price? $9k off is a good deal. I'm looking at a $52k sport CC fully loaded ( minus air suspension ) with the 6'4 bed and I've got true car giving me $9350 off so far.....

Sticker was $47K and change. Got it for $38K as advertised, no hidden fees. Noupf you should have a wider margin to deal with at $52K. Martian, I did a lot of searching for 200 miles, looking at VIN #'s these 2 trucks in GA had been sitting on the lot for over 90 days, so they were both knocked down $9K. They were 2WD with 3:92 posi and most buyers in north GA want 4x4. My good luck. It was white or Granite and I decided a light color for a change. Looking at the MOPAR 2 piece hood graphics although twin stripes would be very cool. By the way, $8,788 off this time of year is quite excellent.

That Durango R/T was nice wasn't it! SUV's are cool, but there's something about a body on frame truck.

that durango looks awesome fat1, not as good as the truck though. I wanted my wife to get one, but she liked the expedition better. I heard a rumor that they're going to be discontinued after this year.
