I saw someone post about a dealership running 20k off msrp and thought that was an awesome deal. I am in the market for a new truck ( and others during this buyer window ) was curious if everyone could post local dealers that are running amazing deals. Thanks

BE AN AWESOME DEAL IF THEY HADN'T UPPED THE MSRP $30 K BEFORE HAND.
We have dealers here in Toronto that advertise 30% off pretty much year round.

Mine, too. My new 2020 2500 just arrived at my dealer last week. But I can't pick it up until they open again :(

Just got an offer in So Cal. 1500 Limited Crew Cab 4x4. MSRP $67,930, offered price $60,170 0% 84 months. That is before tax/title and lic. I was told that price is dealer cost and refunded all the holdbacks. Fair, Good Excellent?

They can usually knock more off BUT they usually aren’t doing that in conjunction with 0% financing.........especially for 7 years.

that’s an ok deal, they aren’t hurting too bad yet!


This is based on how things run in the Atlanta area, not too sure how the truck market is out West.


Edit: so to answer your question, IMO it’s fair

seems very loaded, have them throw in some free tint, etc and you may have a heck of a loaded new truck!

That’s an excellent deal. That’s 11.5% off MSRP. Normally you can get around 22% off MSRP, so that price at 0 interest is about $3000 better than getting one at 22% off for 72 months with 4% interest- give or take depending on taxes.

The 2 options were the $60,170 + Tax etc. at 0% for 84 months or $55,670 (-$4,500 rebates) at 3.09% for 72 months.

Assuming you wouldn’t pay off the loan early with the 3.09% route, you would make out ~$1000 ahead in the long run with the 84mo/0% route- depending on taxes.

I just bought my 2020 Rebel with everything I wanted in it for 57k 0% 84 months. The price is ok, but the financing saves SO much. If I financed 52k on a regular loan, it would come out to what I'm paying. So basically got the truck for 52.

Just bought a Laramie yesterday. Sticker showed $57k but after all incentives and rebates they had it at $45k. Of course, I didn't qualify for all the Ram incentives so they added the $6,500 I didn't qualify for to the $45k and wanted me to finance $51,500 (plus taxes, fees, etc) at 0% for 84 months. They did offer me $33,500 for my paid off trade but I still would've ended up financing over $20k.

I left and they called back the next day and had somehow managed to get me the $6500 in incentives and upped the trade offer to $35,500. I took the offer and financed $11,078 for 60 months at 3.45%. If I go the full 60 months I will have paid $12,094 vs the $20k if I had taken their first offer.

So I guess I got it for $47,600 all in if you consider the $35,500 for my trade plus the $12,100 I will pay over the life of the loan.

I would hope that with the destruction of the US economy with our do nothing president that people would be smart enough to hold onto their cash and not buying anything that is not essential for their continued income. I have a 2011 2500 diesel that I was planning to sell but now I will hold onto it for another 2-3 years.

Between the Trump taxes on imported goods and his encouragement of the Covid-19 viral spread my company's sales are down by more than 50%. But I have no business or personal debts and so can weather the next couple years or longer (it took more than 7 years after the 2008 Great Recession to have sales recover).

If your income stopped next month what will you do? The time to think about this was in January when the problem was first evident. But better very late than never.

It'll be alright. Only 4 more years and another Supreme Court appointee and President Trump will be out of office. Can't wait to see what he does during his "lame duck" 4 year term with a majority in the House and Senate and another Conservative Supreme Court Justice to replace Ginsburg. It will be a great time to be an American!

Politics aside, I'm somewhat in the market for a new truck but am standing pat. Too much volatility and craziness. And between what my current (paid for) truck is worth and cash I have, I could have very low (or even no) payments but it just doesn't seem like a smart time to throw down 50K+ on a depreciating asset.

You guys in here talking about trade-ins, payments, interest rates kill me. Just can't wait to jump on a new hampster wheel with bigger payments, more interest and more debt? Save your money for a rainy day. Life isn't a monthly payment.

I just paid mine off. However, if I had a deal like Bryan28 to drive a new truck for $200 / month I might be tempted.
