    Price negotiated from MSRP

    1) The Ram incentives vary by vehicle & by trim. The Ram 3500 Diesel incentives are often less aggressive and seem to be less frequently available... though that is just a feeling as I don't track it. 2 & 3) Every year is different, but June & December have been the best times to purchase in...

    need help in decision 2019 Ram 2500 or 2020 ram 1500 limited

    Are dealerships able to push through actual Night Edition Pkg selections for Limiteds now? That would be excellent news if that's the case. I had thought only the Blk Appearance pkg was offered for Limited's.

    What's the best way to get offers from ram dealers?

    Every geographic region has its quirks that make the car buying sites/programs useful or useless... but perhaps you might consider using services like TrueCar or the Costco Auto Program? There are numerous others with solid reputations as well. Both TrueCar & the Costco Program proved their...

    Getting an error when hitting the view more tab on new posts

    Started happening to me this week using Safari. Reboots and refreshed cache not fixed. Forums tab doesn't function at all, just reloads 5thgenrams homepage. When I manually get into the forum through direct thread urls I can navigate around, but 'new posts' takes me back to homepage & out of the...

    December Incentives: What stacks & what does not? (0% financing, Employee Pricing, Rebates, etc)

    Sure did. Not interested in GMC's though. Including that was merely intended to give a relevant example of a non-stacking 0% financing incentive which eliminates the bulk of an aggressive discount. Back on the Ram front, to which I am interested.... the current employee pricing/non-contingent...

    December Incentives: What stacks & what does not? (0% financing, Employee Pricing, Rebates, etc)

    Given the variance of portrayed discounts used by dealership websites within the brand (and all brands for that matter), it would be great to have a clear understanding of what stacks and what doesn't before stepping onto the lot. Specifically with regard to the most universal scenario relating...

    AC from defrost in all modes

    Saying good luck feels trite in this situation, but good luck. You've really taken some lumps in this process... not to mention the parasitic nature of it on your personal time.

    Recall alert

    Are you voicing this from a perspective of hope or direct awareness?

    Does FCA include the blend door as a component of the HVAC box assembly?

    Air conditioning performance

    Sheesh, that conversation sounds maddening. So now we have Ram Dealership GM's accusing Ram Customer Service folks of lying!?! That certainly puts actual customers in a pickle.

    Ordered the Off Road Package. Needed to do more than just pull off the driveway into the back yard.

    Infrared & UV are quite strong up there. Latitude in that area is ~37/38'ish, so the sun angle this time of year is helping too. In the absence of wind, you will definitely feel warm on sunny days even when ambient temp is low. I have a house in that area and often sit on the deck in shorts &...

    Another Raptor for a Rebel

    With a nod to Ford with regard to late-model Raptors, the trade in values for them are consistently phenomenal.... in all regions. Most vehicles that sell for north of $60k depreciate $8k the moment you drive them off the lot. You got 25,000 miles and 1.5 years, nice work. Congrats on the new truck!
