Looking to go from my 2wd to 4wd. A local dealer has an '18 4wd big horn crew cab loaded w nav for 31k. Brand new. Or should I wait a little and get a 5th gen? I like both, I love my 4th gen. Other option is wait until 5th gen 2500 is out and get a deal on a 4th gen 2500 power wagon.

Thoughts?

Do you need a 2500? If not, and you really really really want a 5th gen truck, get the 1500.

Need is so subjective lol. Be nice to have the towing capability but currently my 1500 has enough to tow what I need.

That is an *astounding* deal for the '18! How many miles did it have on it? (prolly less than 5k, maybe even less than 1k? I had to ask. )

At the sale price of the new one I'd expect the trade $ to be way low. They have no $ in the deal on that side.
