Look what I test drove today...

[Mr_Nacho]

I was riding by my local Dodge dealer and I saw this thing sitting out on the lot. I started looking at it and the salesman, (which I know since its a small town) came out and handed my the keys, so I took it for s spin. Its a brand new truck, when I parked it it was showing 199 miles. Sticker is 45k, after the 10k worth of extras that was added by Rocky Ridge Trucks in Franklin Springs, Georgia. The tires are Nitto Trail Grapplers, I think they were 37x12.50 on 20" Moto Metals. I also test drove one of the limited editon Mopar Chargers while he worked on the trade value of my 06. Don't think I'm going to trade though. He said I could get this new truck for 28,000 if I were to trade mine in.

I can relate about the SRT-10. They had a new one in about '05, a RCSB, dad drove, i rode shotgun though, we hit a squirrel on the way back to the dealership, haha

 

[BlackedOutHemi]

Aha. Nice. The one I drove was quad cab. Didn't think you could test drive at 17? But I did. Lol.

is the front bumper and grille flat black?

 

[Mr_Nacho]

Yeah both bumpers and grille are flat black, I think it is an ST or express maybe?, don't all SLTs and up trims get the chrome? It did have the Hemi and power windows, locks, and factory brake controller in it though.

 

[BlackedOutHemi]

Was it an express?

I don't think it was though because I saw the original window sticker in the office, and it didn't have express across the top of it, just Ram 1500 quadcab 4x4

 

[0212353]

thats not an express.

 

[Musclemckeester]

Looks like an ST with chrome upgrade to me.

 

[bigbadram1500]

not bad, prolly an ST with some bells and whistles

 

[The Assassin]

Don't think it's worth 45k either. You could have yourself a really nice Cummins for that much.

Thats what I was thinking. Even if I did get it for 28 grand after my trade, it would be cheaper to do a 6" lift, wheels/tires, and a re-gear to 4:56s for my truck than it would be to buy that one.

 

[The Assassin]

^^^Agreed.

 

[quietpeen]

If it was a sport model it would be worth it

Agreed, I wouldn't pay $45,000 or even $28,000 for that, you could pick up a fully loaded truck for that much or even a 2500 Cummings and put the wheels and tires on yourself.

No G! Cummins.

I agree. They took a base model truck, and made it 'big and pretty'. Not worth the $$ IMO

4th gens ren't cheap. I have a big horn and mine stickered at 42k. I wouldn't doubt the price at all. To get one cheap it would have to be a base model with no options

So true I saw a longhorn crew dully at the dealer for just over 60k it was sweet though.
