Hello and who wants to take a guess?

Thanks!

For 2025s - correct no HO engine in the Rebel, and everything is TBD on the new RHO which will be, as far as we can tell, somewhere between a TRX and Rebel. Closer to Rebel. but we don't have pricing, configuration, or start date on that yet.

For 2024s the rebates for February just came out and are nothing to write home about. Generally $4500 off nationwide, plus a little extra on bighorns/laramies in SOME regions. A few regions got some bonus cash for financing with CCAP at market rates (not the promo rate).

The big news stories being screamed about for RAM inventory are mostly related to 2500s. 1500s you will actually see a pretty low supply of 2024s once we get to April/May. that may not help for rebates. Also keep in mind a Rebel rarely gets any special treatment, the way that Bighorn/Laramie do.

If you're seeing people talk about getting north of $15K off a Ram 1500 currently, it is MOST likely either a 2023 leftover (of which there is about 10% of the groundstock compared to 24s currently) OR they're in a Laramie and nailing all the available rebates (right region, have loyalty rebate too, etc). Dealers with big stock of 23's have 'em becuase they didn't discount worth much at all and are just now figuring it out with the help of Ram's 10% retail rebate on them.

Maybe. Specific example given above was for 2024 Laramie. Value off of sticker was dealer discounts only. Nothing from RAM. You nailed the region part as we have high inventory and low demand for some reason. They will be eating a POOP sandwich unless they start moving some chargers and challengers.

If that's the case, send me that buyers order to my inbox I'd love to see what dealer was doing 28% off MSRP with no rebates on a '24.
I'll cancel my Bighorn order with my own employer and buy a Laramie from them if that's the case!
Not saying that YOU'RE misleading, but perhaps your friend didn't tell ya the whole story. If it was, good on 'em!

Sure. Dealer is Matt Bowers in Louisiana. Last time I check they are showing 16k off MSRP online. Not sure how he negotiated to 20k off but I believe him as he is that kind of guy. Haggles for everything. Not sure what a buyers order is.

Purchased my classic from this same dealer over a year ago and got 6k off. Wanted more but my truck was a unique situation. Long story.

Bonus, they offer a lifetime powertrain but requires local service. Not my preferred choice.

Google and call them up. Maybe they can move some product. Need them to stay in business a long time to keep my warranty.

What you guys think about an extended warranty? Dealer tried to sell him on a $5,000 warranty in addition to the lifetime powertrain up to 100k miles. So essentially an electrical warranty past 36k miles excluding powertrain as that’s lifetime. Taking a risk past 36k. Worth it?

Think you need to check into the factory warrenty,i don't think it's been 100,000 miles for a few years now,i think it's only 60,000 now.

($25K more on msrp and $13K in financing, 5.5%)

I really think I’m going for a fully loaded Rebel, ram box, G/T package etc etc. I would wait for a 2025, but from what I’ve seen the 2025 Rebel is not getting the High Output I6 just yet. Unless anyone here has seen proof somewhere else saying otherwise….

My question for the group is do I buy the Rebel tomorrow or roll the dice and see if the rebates get a lot better on Feb 1st?

Every video and article I’ve watched and read says Ram has one of the highest inventory levels (in term of days) compared to others. Also with 2025 production beginning and these high inventory levels, it would make me think that rebates will only get better… what say you?

I would absolutely wait till the 2025 model comes out. This current trucks are definitely not going to be going up in price anyway. I would wait on this new hurricane motor to come out. If you’re desperate, I would just go with a 2024 2500 cummins 4x4. Can never go wrong with one of them. And they have great resale value (considering you’re not a buffoon paying a cent over msrp).

nlambert182 · Feb 2, 2024

Frankly... I'm in the opinion camp that you never buy a first model year of anything. Especially an engine. I like to let others play guinea pig for a few years before I jump on the bandwagon. Look at the 5.0 Cummins that was in the XD for a few years. Or the 6.0L/6.4L Powerstrokes. (I actually owned the 6.4 and it was a nightmare) Or the early years of the Ecoboost... etc.

If it were me I'd stick to what I know works for a couple more years. Give them time to work out the kinks that will inevitably be found in that engine.

Discount is $9500, it's the rebates and incentives from RAM that gets it to $16K. That make sense, and is a very strong deal!

i thought the factory warranty was 36K or 3 year?

nlambert182 · Feb 2, 2024

I thought diesels were 3/36 on the truck and 5 yr/60k on the diesel engine and gassers were 3/36 myself.

That is my understanding also.

Diesel is 5 year/100k
Gas is 5 year/60k

I was just at a dealer on Thursday looking at a 24 big horn. My 2018 Laramie was just totaled on Friday officially from a 23mph accident with a high school idiot who pulled out and hit my front pass wheel area, bent the frame and it’s done. 24 Laramie and limiteds were 10-11k off MSRP but the bighorn was like 5k off. I liked this 24 bighorn monster built for duty model and it was 64k MSRP down to 59k. When I got my 18 Laramie it was 54k down to 44k with incentives. The bighorn is a step down but also a 15k increase after discounts so monthly payments suck. That dealer also had 17 2500s on the lot but only 5 1500s and 4 of them were limiteds and they had zero Laramies.

I keep hearing that, too, but it most certainly isn't the case in my area.

They could probably order a new frame, but I'll bet there isn't one in stock, so they'd have to order one made. Getting it could take months. Hopefully no one was injured.

Oh, were you hit by a Buick by any chance?

you can always buy it back from the insurance company...usually at a really cheap price...unless the tow company already has done that. Good for parts on the next truck..or on ebay.

I’m no prognosticator, but Ram/Jeep inventory keeps climbing, meaning one thing…prices or other incentives will get better.

I watched TFL THIS WEEK. Ram was 4th on sales 2023 . Not even 500,000 units

Danny Phillips · Feb 5, 2024

I think I would rebuild it. Unless the insurance company want to pay you full value.

The drivers side must look alot worse,as it's hard to see where they'd write that off

Bent frame. it'll always carry a salvage title.

Bent frame doesn't mean it's a write off,especially on something like a relatively new TRX. But the fact a new frame is 6 months out,means the insurance company basically has to write it off.Now that they've written it off,it'll always have that salvage title monikor hung on it though.If you'd read another 1 or 2 of my posts,you'd see where i said the reason it's a write off was probably due to the unavailbilty of a new frame
