First off, thanks for all the advice here......some pretty funny I might add, and all of it good regarding my hunt for a 4x4 Laramie. About wore my ass out looking. I tried locally, but once again the run around. Atlanta came through with the closest equipment and best price. Rebates will change tomorrow, maybe bigger maybe not, so I went for the deal. Also really wanted this color.

Traded my 2015 Sport 2WD, leather, 3.92 anti-spin, Nav 8.4, CD but no roof for a pretty loaded out Max Steel 2017 Laramie 4x4, $12,440 difference + tax and doc. Should be around $14,350 out the door. I'm keeping my black chromed factory Sport wheels and new Hankooks. Don't want the Good Years or the chrome plastic wheels, lol. Picking it up tomorrow and I'm excited.

Pretty decent deal, considering the list of stuff I wanted on it. Didn't have the tow mirrors, but at least I got the factory controller, 3.92 anti-spin, bed lights, FCA "Line-x", Alpine, park sense, 8.4, step bars, sunroof, convenience group, protection group, remote start and a few other things I can't remember, but mostly I wanted this color. Two tone delmonico red would have been my next choice, although any color looks good on these 4th gen.

Congrat's on the new truck. One request---PLEASE don't let the dealer detail your truck. In all probability they will scratch the paint because they don't know how to properly detail nor do they have the proper equipment to detail the truck. They will probably run it through a car wash(tunnel of destruction) then wipe it down with a rag from God only knows where, with God only knows what on it. There are some exceptions---but not many.

Shottenkirk. They used to be Cherokee when I bought my Sport there back in 2015.

Thanks Jay. I will definitely avoid that. In fact if there's any marks or dings on the truck, or if it doesn't feel right, I'll be looking at an identically equipped black and silver Laramie.
