    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Great job and great deal, but 30% off a 70k truck should be everyone's goal. I'd say shoot for 20% off a 40k truck and expect more discounts as the MSRP goes up. I'm not knocking your deal, but these trucks aren't worth 70k. Everything a dealership or manufacturer sells is marked up, and if...

    Pressure washer & Foam Cannon

    Electric pressure washers have the convenience of less maintenance but lack the versatility of projects to use them for. If you are going to spray your house or driveway, you will likely want the power of a gas pressure washer. Electric will take care of car washing, though. Cheap foam cannons...

    When are they gonna start building new trucks?

    There are also supplier questions. I was recently in for service and in need of a replacement trailer brake controller. They said the parts are on backorder until September.

    2019 vs 2020 Price Difference on Ramtrucks Inventory Seach

    Right and I'm curious if anyone knows what those changes are. $1,300 is a decent amount and I'm surprised the starting price went down from 2019 to 2020. It seems like everything gets more expensive with time.

    2019 vs 2020 Price Difference on Ramtrucks Inventory Seach

    I'm looking on Ramtrucks.com inventory search and prices start at 33,440 for 2019s and 32,145 for 2020s. What gives?

    Did some sound deadening to my doors

    Looks good! When you reinstalled the door panel, how did you get the clips do reconnect, specifically at the bottom? When I reinstalled my door panel, the clips line up at the bottom but don't hold the door tight anymore.

    Slight vibration

    The vibration seems to occur with wheels and tires of all kinds. Many have had their wheels balanced and tires replaced without a fix. The cause of the vibration may not be the tires.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Understand that it's current incentives OR the financing deal. I originally thought about doing the same thing with my 2019 but when I did the either/or math, it no longer made sense for me.

    Slight vibration

    You are post #849 without a fix yet. Buy the Ford.

    Proactive re-torquing of Exhaust Manifold bolts?

    I'm also interested in this. Maybe even replacing the bolts with stronger ones? Replacing one at a time shouldn't be too much work.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I think educated buyers willing to negotiate are the minority going into dealerships. They don't push things like fabric protection because the average consumer is informed. For every buyer like you, I bet there's at least one other buyer ready to get taken advantage of on their trade...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    American MSRP's are just a marketing game. Look into trade-in values to find out how much the trucks are really worth. I like my Ram, but I would say a more accurate "MSRP" is around 20% off for a middle of the road model. If you're looking at a 70k Ram, maybe closer to 25% or even 30%. It's...

    Loud Clunk in Rear of the truck

    My truck has a similar noise over bumps but I always thought it was a normal truck noise, but this is my first truck.

    Slight vibration

    I'm at the dealership for something else and asked about this new TSB as I have the vibration. This TSB does not apply to my truck based on manufacture date. I hope it's the fix for others though!

    Cleaning rebel dash pad

    It doesn't leave a shine and doesn't cause glare. It says it smells like "new car." I don't think so, but it does smell nice.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Another article says trade in values are down about 10% but used car prices are only down 1%. Jalopnik: No One Knows What's Happening With The Used Car Market. https://jalopnik.com/no-one-knows-whats-happening-with-the-used-car-market-1842961124

    Used prices tanking according to this article. I have to imagine this will affect trade in values. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-04-20/gm-and-ford-face-billions-in-losses-from-historic-car-price-drop

    2020 ram 1500 vs 2020 toyota tundra

    I agree that the 5.7 and 8 speed should be fine. The only place you'll see someone saying FCA is more reliable than Toyota is on an FCA forum, though. FCA reliability has improved lately, but pre 2008 all American cars were less reliable than Japanese cars. To me, a recall is a manufacturer...
