Is the price right???

[Devin1349]

Hey guys so ive noticed that some of you are trading in your rams and it sounds expensive. now i live in Nevada and Ram trucks go for a good price here im financing a 2011 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi quad cab 6'4 bed 4X4 ST now the price i financed it after paying for warranties was about 28,000 plus intrest on my loan. so my question is how much are you guys paying for your Rams and where might i find a same year if not new Ram 2500 either 6.4 Hemi or 6.7 Cummins at a lower price depending on the state you're in. and secondly what jobs do you guys have to afford these beautiful trucks. have a good day guys.


God Bless America.

P.S. by lower price i mean lower price for these vehicles compared to Nevada Prices thanks you guys

 

[Rzrman328]

You're gonna get such a varied answer due to location.....but...I am interested in what everyone does to afford these beautiful Rams as well

 

[Devin1349]

right thats what im hoping for is to see who is paying how much depending on the state for example one of the doctors i work with at the clinic i work at just bout a 2012 Ram 2500 6.7 cummins laramie longhorn with a 3 inch lift on 35s for 33,000 in utah. which by Nevada numbers is a steal.

In 2014 I got my 2012 1500 BigHorn 4x4 5.7 w/ 23k mi for 26K. Financed 28k @ 3.25%

did a few mods, traded it in owing 24, got 26 for it.

In July I got my 2015 SLT 4x4 5.7 with 18k mi for 32k. Financed 34k @ 2.49%

in july of '15 i bought a '15 laramie cc stickered for 49.9 i got it for 35.5k out the door.

it really depends on location and if the dealers are high volume or willing to "sell".

Remember that some people have made good decisions on prior vehicles and end up with good trades and nothing owed to get a reasonable monthly payment for a really nice vehicle. So everyone isn't making payments on the full cost of their truck.

I also found that in my state (MA) the cost of good used low mileage trucks was almost the price of new. So I went with new. I ended up ordering my truck, MSRP was around $55K, got it for around $45K, after trade and lifetime maxcare warranty, I financed around $39K.

2015 qc express. Dealer added leather interior and step bars. Got mine in June of 2015. Sticker was 44k with dealer add-ons and I got it for 38k. Put $20k down so financed about $18k. Interest rate was 3.7 something and I didn't have any credit at this time. I'm down to about $14k owed on the truck. I throw an extra $1000 at the principle twice a year to kill it a little quicker.

 

[Devin1349]

great info guys hopefully this helps other people see where to go to get a new Ram or ideas how to approach a dealership with confidence once i build my credit back up and hopefully get a raise (or get a better paying job) then i can look at 2500's and hopefully get my woman a 1500 but thank you guys.

I paid $50k for my 1500, but it's loaded. My coworker just got a new 2017 3500 for $33k. It's base model, but still a deal. He stated that Prestige Chrysler Jeep Dodge have some killer deals, go check them out.

PW Great Deal


I picked up mine about a month ago.
Sticker= $52K
Purchase price = $39990.00
5K down - Financing around $38K
Program manager for Automotive Industry- Tier 2 Car and Tier 1 Heavy Truck
I have about $4K in some protective work in it.
I had to drive 3 hours to get the deal but it was worth it (Columbus, OH)
Seems PW Tradesman in Black isn'tt very common for some reason.

I'm not sure why markets are different when you can search the USA for a deal then have your local dealer get the Truck. I have done that for the last 7 Jeeps I have bought.

 

[Devin1349]

I think its because of guys like me who its their first time at a dealer and we dont know all the cons and smoke and mirrors they show us while they make a profit. i got screwed but in the end there is nothing i can do about it until i get rid of my negative equity and trade in for a power wagon or a cummins.

[Devin1349]

this is my truck just to show you guys what im paying 26.8k and 7.5k in interest on

 

[02Steve15]

I know a kid who bought a 10 year old truck and got hit with 15% interest. Crazy. It was my first actual purchase at a dealer too but going through these forums you can see other people's experiences and what tricks to watch for when you go to buy next time.

EXACTLY i know precisely what im looking for when i go truck shopping again and know what to ask for and how to thanks to this forum. my hope is that i can one day walk away with low payments on a power wagon or a cummins. but a dream non the less

 

[hemipower95 2.0]

Yeah I had truck fever when I bought mine, and I bought a qc. Lol.

 

[02Steve15]

Devin what are your monthlys as of right now? What is your interest rate? I'm failing at math right now. 3.81%?

Live in VA. Bought online in NC after scouring the country. '16 2500 loaded up Laramie 6.4. Used my own CU, 1.75%. Sticker just over $60k, delivered to my driveway on a flatbed $48k. No haggle. Great experience. This dealership has their **** together.
