    2022 Orders

    FWIW, the Stellantis terminal at Port of Baltimore has no 1500's. There were several hundred a couple or three weeks ago. This doesn't necessarily mean they are running out. I have seen it this low several times in the past. Maybe just the end of 21's being shipped.

    2022 Orders

    Any word yet on when the Ram site will transition to 2022 builds? I know... it's a tool to direct you to current dealer inventory... so we don't need to go there.

    Sorry, MD is not the South

    BUT it's a very small state and both a waffle house AND an IHOP are less than 2 miles away. So you COULD drive your lawn tractor to either AND there are 3 liquor stores and a Dollar General on the way. Stick a fork in it.

    Sorry, MD is not the South

    Let's settle this once and for all. I live a mere 10 miles south of the Mason-Dixon. I can go 9 miles north to the Ballpark Diner and get served grits with a smile. Oh and wash it down with sweet tea.... nuff said, sho nuff SOUTH, discussion closed.

    Financing question

    Yeah that's what I want to do. Cut through the BS, agree on the numbers upfront before I ever walk through the door. Gotta watch that hiked up MSRP in the contract, they'll charge you more tax that way, pay the state on another number and pocket the diff. Slimeballs.

    Financing question

    How do dealerships get paid out of a loan? A onetime commission at the beginning of the term or over the term or at payoff/buyout? Do they split 50/50 with the banks or does it depend on referral number?

    Financing question

    Most of the sales contracts I've seen are convoluted messes. In my opinion it's on purpose to direct your attention from their add ons and interrupt a logical line of reasoning when adding costs. To their advantage. Jus sayin

    Financing question

    I'm playing with a spreadsheet and I have and will play around more with rate and term. I'd say the GM's and F&I people are able to easily extrapolate parts of a point to the whole deal in their head. Take it here adds it there. That's what I want to be able to do on the fly. Considering taking...

    Financing question

    Yep that's zactly what I needed. Was having a schizm visualizing it. That's what they do all day everyday. I hate being at a disadvantage so I'm trying to "get it" so I can hit their knuckleballs.

    Financing question

    Can someone tell me what the delta is between getting $500 off price of vehicle = what % of loan financing. I'm wondering incentive for dealer discounting vs adjusting APR and how they get paid (make their money). Would assume they'd rather have their money sooner than later and give up their...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I work near the car lots at the Port of Baltimore. Pretty sure it's the biggest on the East Coast. Most of the lots are FULL with trucks loading and waiting to load. Main players; MB all lots packed, some overflow on leased space. Mazda packed; predominately CX- 5's & 7's, lots of 3's too...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    You could make a case many things are at a 7X factor from back then (70's). An early 70's Merc 280 avg options $9500, Rolls $65,000, Dodge D 100 $2699.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    My first car a 67 Rambler Rebel was $50. I paid somewhere around $150 in insurance every qtr. Different day.... altogether different day.

    Any idea of when the Ram site will be updated to build 2022's?

    2022 RAM 1500

    The "coolest" feature would be an oscillating center vent. My wife's 83 Mazda GLC had that way back when. Haven't seen it in another car yet. It was fantastic on a hot day with the a/c on high. It really was a great little car.
