Hell Cat Ram 8/17?

[low_dakota94]

For a truck designed to go play in dirt I’d say hard pass. That’s one expensive mall crawler if I had it. Now if they drop a demon inspired reg cab short bed with a drag pack option!! Time to sell my house, need to free up some funds lol.

Frankly for about 20K less I'd rather get a Power Wagon...

Yeah, I was playing on the Ram Trucks website, sepc'd it out, it's only about $88,855.00 before taxes, licensing, dealer fees and the other stuff they do too jack up the price. Like was said before, it'll be over $90k plus to get one....LOL.

Too expensive. I understand why (the engine and suspension cost money).

If I’m being honest I’d go with the cheaper (never thought this would be the case) Raptor.

Or even a cheaper Power Wagon.
I understand this option is a different kind of truck, but it’s actually better for the type of off-roading I have around me anyways. I don’t plan on desert running anytime soon in my $100k truck lol.

Just built one for 80k.. I really can’t see spending that much on a truck that hauls less than my 19 PW.. It would be fun to drive tho! If I was single with stupid money I’d damn sure buy it, whoever gets one of these is going to have a hard time keeping tires on it.. because if it were me, I’d light them up at every red light.. haha

You could have a nice Power Wagon for like 30K less. They will sell...but this is really a niche market. The majority of us cannot afford one (new one).

Looking back at the builds I’ve done on my vette and the 7500+ I spend on a s/c kit for a 5.7 and that you really need a stronger drivetrain 30 k would be cheap.if they included an upgraded trans/rear end ect.that was strong enough to propel a 6600 lb slug with out grenading everything with a hellcat hemi Otherwise the spending has just begun.

All dealers suck with their add on’s. 18 k above sticker. They can all stick it.

 

[Lucy Girl]

Reached out to a few dealers locally. They are all charging an additional $30k market adjustment. F-ing ridiculous. Damn dealers and their ransom ADM. That would be $118k for build I’d want. No. Motherf*ckn. Way.

like I said before it’s all about the MONEY. Screw everyone that would like to have one.

 

[Nick@GotExhaust]

I do like it but I would of rather of seen them make a hell cat ram similar to what the SRT10's were.

You can go cheaper for Raptor but then you’d have a Ford. Take it from me, Ford doesn’t give a sh*t about it’s customers. I have a ‘19 Raptor that has been plagued with an issue for 10 of the 15 months I’ve owned it. Been in the shop 6 times for total of 9 weeks. I’ve been fighting FCS to get them to do a buyback but been denied twice. They can’t find the root source of issue so I’m stuck with a 75k truck that puts me in a bad mood every time I drive it (the truck is awesome if not for the issue and the knowledge that Ford is F-ing me). I’ve owned several Ram trucks and never had an issue. Bought Ford for the Raptor. Learned my lesson. I’ll never buy Ford again.

Bummer. What’s the issue with it?

Every make and model has this kind of case where the issue can’t be explained and it gets pushed aside by the automaker it seems. And I’m okay with vehicles having issues but they oughta take care of people who get these lemons.

That's the price you pay to be first on your block to own one. Shelby GT500's - you're gonna spend $100,000 +/-. Corvettes $100,000 +. These are $70,000-80,000 stickers.
Nothing new, been done for decades (remember the 1978 Corvette pace car?). Supply and demand.... There will be plenty that have the cash and are willing to pay that inflated price and until those buyers dry up, the trucks or whatever will be sold with ADP. Seems to be happening in the grocery stores with beef right now.
Y'all can ***** all you want.... Ain't gonna change. No point in getting everything in a ***.....

That’s my point. It’s only the price you pay if you give in to a dealers ransom. I’d rather do some leg work and find a dealer that doesn’t pull that type of BS, even if they are out of state

What an extremely helpful post. I’m so glad you decided to share your intelligent thoughts with us all [emoji849]

 

[Jus Cruisin]

Those saying they'll get a Raptor and save money..... Not now. The new Raptor is getting the 5.2l GT500 engine. Rumored to be 725hp. You'll be spending a "hun" to be the first.....

Ha! Right. Share a link to the reputable source you got that from.

So you're telling me that you have your truck for sale and you think it is an extraordinary piece and say you want $50,000 even though it books out at $40,000. And, I come along and am in love with the truck but I think it's fair to get a little off book and offer $38,000 and I say you are ripping people off at $50,000. You should be obliged to sell to me? At my price? No.... I'll be told to take a hike. You are going to try to get every dollar you can for it even if it means you pass on multiple lower offers. Right?

Literally every major outlet is reporting the same info...
