Hello everyone, I emailed Aaron via [email protected] this morning looking for a quote but haven't heard back. Can anyone tell me if this is his right email? and if it is should I resend another email ?

Thanks

I'd give it some more time. I also emailed him this morning for a quote and have not heard back. I used the same email address. I imagine he's been busy and hasn't been able to respond to us yet...or he may have taken the day off. Of the 4 dealers I emailed this morning, I haven't heard back from any of them yet.

I made a mistake and activated my $1000 Penfed offer. I doubt I’ll be buying within 60 days but likely will in 3-6 months. Can it be re-activated upon expiration?
I am a penned member, how can I get $1000 offer?

I just received a response from Sandi with pricing for my order. If you haven't received a response yet, you should get one soon.

Yes. You submit for another code.

Have you ever heard of dealers being unable to use the Pen Fed when 0% financing has been locked in? Bud Clary is claiming I can't used the Pen Fed if I use the financing rate that was locked in at my time of order.

As far as I know, That is actually correct. Sold order protection requires all incentives to be locked in at order. You cannot add incentives at delivery unless you take the current incentives. In normal times you might very well score better incentives when the vehicle is delivered. Not so much in this crazy market.

When I worked the deal on my nephews Ram order, I locked in the $500 TrueCar rebate as a hedge if the $1000 PenFed (those two rebates could not stack and there was no wait period for TrueCar vs 60 days for new account with PenFed) was a bust due to lesser available incentives at delivery.

I wonder why Phillip Olson specifically told me I could add the Pen Fed code at time of delivery? He told me the 0% was locked in, and the Pen Fed plus any other available incentives would be added at time of delivery.

People make mistakes. It was clearly defined to me how sold order protection worked by Aaron at Mark CDJR. I was trying to work every angle when putting the order together.

I wasn't aware that you could buy one with the 8HP70 transmission. I thought they all came with 8HP75?

But to answer your question, it's not a spectacular deal. But for in-stock inventory, you might consider yourself lucky if you're not paying MORE than MSRP. If it's the truck you want at the price point you can live with, then the only person's opinion that matters is yours.

Hard to tell without knowing the tax and Dmv fees. Are dealerships still honoring the 1% below invoice with tread lightly membership does anyone know?

My vote is YES, good deal/fair deal. I would say something like 57k would be a great deal, but 5k at this level isn't a significant difference. That is a really nice truck.

New User Here, i'm looking to put in my deposit on a ram build today, Ram 1500 EcoDiesel Crew cab short bed With the southwest package, off-road package, 33Gal tank and the level A tech group. I Live in NY and travelling to Arkansas to get the southwest package with the right color and interior configuration. best dealer (Frank Fletcher CJDR) is negotiating @ predicted MSRP of 61700 with a 6-9 week expected delivery. My Question is i'm looking for a more concise listing of any coupons and offers. i will be making a PenFed account today and have seen mention here of an fca brochure that involves another coupon. i have a supplier discount as well that should take it to below invoice but I'm hoping to put together a to-do list of coupons or discounts i can gather prior to the truck being ready to maximize the discounts I will take at delivery. any help from the collective knowledge would be great, Thanks All!

I cannot, i called every dealer Within 60 miles. Southwest package is Only sold in Texas+Surrounding States, and a build optioned with the same features as the southwest up here came in at just around 67k for a Laramie. Crazier Still i could not order Olive green+brown interior+sport package and that is the combination the wife and i Decided on. and the wife and i were meaning to take a trip to Nashville anyway, so Arkansas is the natural pick because its a few hours drive to Nashville.
