    Negotiating a used ram 2019

    Yes, this is a bighorn. I’ll check KBB and NADA when I get a chance.

    Negotiating a used ram 2019

    He mentioned $38K which only includes doc and processing. I told him I wanted $38K to include all taxes and fees and he said that’s another $3K and offered me $40K OTD with everything included. I’d be saving around $6K going with this used truck over similarly optioned NEW vehicles. This one...

    Is $38K OTD decent?

    Gearing and tire size

    What are the weights of the standard 275/55r20 tires and the 275/65r18 tires that come with the 1500 bighorn package? I can’t seem to find the exact 20” tire or the 18” either I

    Gearing and tire size

    His explanation states that the 3.21 would still have lower rpms at 70MPH with the 33” tires. Doesn’t that equate to better MPG? I’m clueless at this so I’m trying to learn prior to purchasing. Keep in mind towing as of now is not a factor. Just 33” tires

    Gearing and tire size

    So with the 3.21 gears and 33” tires, I will still have lower RPMs at freeway speeds, therefore better fuel economy than the 3.92?

    Gearing and tire size

    If no trailer is involved in the mix, strictly commuting. 33” tires and 2” level. I’ve got a vote for 3.21 and a vote for 3.92. Anyone else? 50/50 cit/hwy.

    Gearing and tire size

    Down the road, hwy driving might increase as I will likely have to travel further for work.

    Gearing and tire size

    I’m looking for a CC standard box with either anti slip or e-locker. I want to keep decent mpg so I won’t go above a 33” AT tire or bigger than a 2” level. I do a mix 50/50 city/hwy. Down the road, I’d like to get a liteweight travel trailer, around 20’. But this isn’t a factor as I won’t be...

    Gearing and tire size

    Based off the numerous threads I’ve read regarding gearing, 3.21 will yield better fuel economy than the 3.92 assuming all is kept stock. If I were to put on a level and 33” AT tires (maybe wildpeaks or similar), would 3.21 gearing still be the way to go? I know these tires are only an inch...

    Bumpershellz?

    These are fairly inexpensive and from reviews I’ve read they hold up very well

    Bumpershellz?

    Does anyone know if these are available for 5th gen rams? I emailed the company and haven’t heard anything back. For those who don’t know, they are color matched or black covers for your bumper and secure with 3M tape. They cover the chrome. They can give the appearance of the sport package

    Looking at this truck, good deal?

    I transferred a truck into my name this morning to get the truck conquest incentive ($1000) that was initially part of the deal. Turns out after I transferred the title the dealer let me know that the truck needs to be in my name for at least 30 days to qualify (which he did not tell me...

    Negotiating add ons with dealer

    It has tow mirrors. Is it realistic to ask him to swap them out for the standard color matched mirrors?

    Negotiating add ons with dealer

    So I’ve got an OTD price on a bighorn CC from a dealer that prior to taxes and licensing is roughly 25% below msrp. I’m planning on calling him back today to go over the next steps of the purchase (this is my first new truck purchase). What add ons should I ask to throw in? Bed liner, and I’m...

    Looking at this truck, good deal?

    Should I let him know the already negotiated price with the other dealer? Or should I see if he can beat it himself for the Business?

    Looking at this truck, good deal?

    Ok so this truck is located around 500 miles away from me. I contacted my local dealer to see if they can make a trade to get the truck down here and avoid me taking a trip. He just asked me what my agreed upon price is with that dealer. Do I tell him? Or do I see what he can offer first?
