I was told Big Horns got the biggest discounts so that’s what I was dealing on when I bought my Laramie in Sep last year, I got a Laramie at a 30% discount. I was shocked and felt like I robbed the place. If you’re patient, you’ll find a decent deal. The only issue is that coronavirus has really...

I came from a 2017 Silverado, with the 5.3, which is an almost anemic engine compared to the 5.7 Hemi. As far as interior, the Sierra doesn’t compare, even remotely. The Sierra, in my opinion, is drastically overpriced. GM has been having serious issues with their transmissions as well as...

Not a good deal. My truck, exactly like that one but black, stickered for $54,995, I got it OTD under $43K. I’d walk away.

This isn’t entirely accurate. Ford still makes passenger cars, the Mustang for example. These things are somewhat cyclical, oil prices being one of the main drivers of the market as well as technology. Yes, a lot of pick-ups are sold in the U.S., however, I wouldn’t be writing the obituary on...

Why...would anyone pay that for a Jeep? The Gladiators are overpriced, as-is. I would never go from my nice, cushy Ram to what is basically an off-road capable mini-truck. Moreover, why is it posted in this section for discussion?

Makes sense but by that logic, why do you have a truck? A truck has an engine that could fail. Why not a horse and a cart? Technology advances and is refined through trial, error and time. I have a Laramie with lots of bells/whistles and only had one minor issue that I corrected quickly.

Today my screen in my 2019 Laramie froze after a call. I gave it about 25 minutes after parking and it stayed frozen despite starting again and trying to turn it off manually. I was concerned about the battery going dead, so disconnected the negative terminal for about 30 seconds, reconnected...

I would be willing to wager that the vast majority of Rebel drivers, much like Wrangler drivers, aren’t taking their trucks off road regularly. I got a 4x4 Laramie, sometimes wish I would have went with a Rebel but not a fan of the Rebel grill. Get what you like.

Hold them to the “we owe” sheet. The first Ram I bought in July, they hastily promised to add the LED Package as a condition of the sale. Two weeks later, they tried to add LED aftermarket bulbs to my new truck for the $900 they charged me. I held firm and between that and another issue with bed...

I understand that...but I wouldn’t get a V6, period. No way in Hell, not on a full-sized pick-up. The fuel savings is negligible, resale is horrible and performance is well-below acceptable.

The MPG sucks...at 1600 miles and I still haven’t broken 16MPG on the interstate. Of course, I expected this, but from what I have read the eTorque isn’t much better. I read somewhere MPG will increase around 5000 miles.

i chose not to buy an eTorque based on reviews and my own test drive. What amounts to about *maybe 1 extra MPG was not worth the investment and having an eTorque Badge in my mind is almost like having a Pentastar badge on the hood.

I don’t understand why anyone would want an eTorque emblem. It doesn’t add power or anything to the engine and just more to clutter the truck. ETorque is nothing to brag about, from everything I have read and all the reviews I have seen.

I agree, you’re overpaying for that truck. I’d say you shouldn’t be paying more than $52k. Granted, I have a ‘19 Laramie that stickered for $54,990 and paid around $40k. That price seems awfully high for a Laramie, while mine isn’t a night edition, I have a lot of great options. If you feel like...

Okay... Sticker price $54,990 Price after rebate $40,687 Sales Tax $3398 Price OTD $44,109 After redoing the math, that’s actually 27% off before sales tax ...thanks for bringing that to my attention! There ya go!
