    Power Wagons ... Post em up!

    Yes, like a lot of the darker metallic colors I’ve seen, Patriot Blue can change significantly based on the amount of sunlight that’s present. I really like it though and think you’ll be glad you chose it.

    Power Wagons ... Post em up!

    No, I sold my olive green one back in late February of 2021 as I was doing a lot of highway driving and got offered more than what I’d paid for it new. After seventeen months, I’m not driving as much and missed having a PowerWagon. So, I’ve been looking for a used one for a month and this...

    Power Wagons ... Post em up!

    Glad to be back in a 2021 Patriot Blue PowerWagon (1 owner; clean, 27k miles; 1st owner also added Amp Research Powersteps) after selling my 2021 Olive Green in March of last year. I got a really good deal on and added a Mopar Maxcare Warranty for 4 years / 75k miles once the 3/36 runs out. Not...

    Considering a Return to a PowerWagon

    Well, as of last night, I’m glad to be back in a 2021 Patriot Blue PowerWagon (1 owner; 27k miles; 1st owner added Amp Research Powersteps) after selling my 2021 Olive Green in March of last year. I plan on holding on to this one for quite awhile! Thanks for all the input as I found the right...

    Considering a Return to a PowerWagon

    The used market pricing is declining and the MSRP’s of new well-equipped PowerWagons is absurd ($75-77k). I think the only way to get any decent discount (10-14%) is via ordering. Yet, fully equipped and low mileage 2020-2021’s are in the $62-65k range per asking price. Waiting may be the best...

    Considering a Return to a PowerWagon

    Hello everyone. I’m looking for some pricing insight. It’s been over a year since a sold my 2020 PowerWagon because the offer for it was above what I paid for it. I was driving a lot of highway miles every month too, so opting for something more fuel efficient and better for cruising the...

    Website Pricing Up for 5 Days not Honored by Dealer: What Would You Do?

    Well, after some looking around, reporting to RAM and the BBB + a talk with my local RAM dealer (who didn’t have a 2019 Mega Cab Diesel on the lot; but will be servicing my RAM), and with another rep I know well who works for another brand lot under the same dealer with the pricing “issues,” I...

    Purchase new big body Range Rover? Or go with a 2500?

    You’re welcome! Yes, I’ve had my share of Land Cruisers. Truly, if you realize you really don’t want a truck, there is no better choice for a capable off-road beast with reliable, holds its value, day-to-day comfort than a Land Cruiser. And I’d get a 1-2 year old one as they’ve not been updated...

    Purchase new big body Range Rover? Or go with a 2500?

    I’ve owned X5’s, several Toyota Land Cruisers and Lexus LX 470’s and 570’s, as well as GX 470 and 460’s. I’m currently in a new 2019 RAM 2500 diesel. If you need a truck bed, I’d look at a new Ram Power Wagon. If you don’t, I’d look for a 1-2 yr old Toyota Land Cruiser or LX 570. And I’d not own...

    Website Pricing Up for 5 Days not Honored by Dealer: What Would You Do?

    Oh yes, few brands come close to the Lexus customer experience - especially when you take the vehicle back in for service! Do you pay more for it? Yes. But peace of mind when you buy and throughout the ownership experience is worth a few “qualifying $500 rebates because you also bought a...

    Website Pricing Up for 5 Days not Honored by Dealer: What Would You Do?

    I agree 100% with this. I’ve been a Toyota loyalist for almost two decades because I’ve never had a Toyota dealer do the bait and switch or the “add-on” dance (plus the unmatched, long term reliability). The negotiated price plus taxes and dealer fee is given, and it stays that way. Are they...

    Website Pricing Up for 5 Days not Honored by Dealer: What Would You Do?

    I agree with you both: Publicity to both warn others and, hopefully, ratchet up pressure to change these practices, is likely the best I can hope for. It’s disappointing as I bought a used vehicle from the same dealership family’s Nissan dealership. They were fully transparent and very fair. I...

    Website Pricing Up for 5 Days not Honored by Dealer: What Would You Do?

    it certainly appears disingenuous, doesn’t it? And I tried to go through the internet sales rep. She refereed me to the other sales rep who would “take care of it.” Yet, when I arrived, he again said I couldn’t get that deal. Oh, and after I have insisted I will talk to the GM, the rep insisted...

    Yes, yet that specific number is below this same vehicle and not others, which have a different amount of discount. For example, see the pic below I just took a screenshot of.

    Website Pricing Up for 5 Days not Honored by Dealer: What Would You Do?

    Two weeks ago, I looked at a 2019 RAM 2500 Mega Cab diesel. It had a $75k MSRP and was marked down to $63k before any qualifying rebates. The dealer was willing to come down to $62k, but no further. Though the truck had been on the lot over 90 days, I wasn’t convinced it was needed, so I didn’t...
