    Poor gas mileage

    Insane man, again more power to you but I don't think I could survive driving how I had to to get over 22-23 haha. It wasn't highway for me, a lot of stop signs and such. I guess we know it is possible. I was able to average 31-33 in a cross country trip with my 2019 Mustang GT I used to have.

    Poor gas mileage

    Alright so I have to admit that initially I thought you were playing with us and only counting the downhill average. I live in Florida and there are some "hills" where I am that ruin the mpg on the computer. Today I set out to match, or get close to what you're getting. Man I did it, but you...

    Poor gas mileage

    I have to ask, what speed are you averaging on the highway drive? Must be 50-55 ish.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Florida dealers will not deal over the phone because there are no high volume dealers here. There are a ton of shady ones also that will advertise a low price, only to tack on dealer addons. I don't understand these dealers tinting windows automatically with the crappy tint. On a side note I...

    Holy cow. Your buddy may need to learn how to stay out of the gas a little better :LOL:. I have etorque with 3.92 and 4x4 and average what you do. Although, once I put exhaust on I will probably drop in mpg. lol In all seriousness there is a certain way you have to drive to get the best MPG. It...

    You should also check when the warranty was put in service. Depending on how long it was used by management, you could be 8 months to a year down on the warranty. Just a thought, but some don't care about a warranty. Personally I like to have the warranty for as long as possible when I am still...

    Awesome thanks. Didn't think to check the app after it was gone from the website. Appreciate it. Correction, apparently they just shifted it around on their website from its normal place, and I was just blind to it. smh

    How did you get the USAA certificate? They've stopped their car buying service. I tried to find it before I did the deal on my truck.

    Standard vs Premium LED Lighting Group

    The LEDs are the same with exception to being the red or black ones, as far as I know. I'm just not sure of the specific PN for the specific tail lights.

    Standard vs Premium LED Lighting Group

    I think these are the actual LED ones though? Unless the website has some weird stuff going on with charging two different prices. I'd have to cross reference the PN's with RAM...

    Rough Downshifting Coming to a Stop

    Interestingly enough I took my truck in today for the same issue. Mind you I only purchased it in June, but it was used with a little less than 21k miles on it. So I get in talk to the service advisor about the flash, which he didn't see initially for whatever reason. But he was forthcoming with...

    Poor gas mileage

    Hey brother I just recently picked up a used 2019 1500 4x4 5.7 with etorque. I verified it today that at highway speed ie 65 mph cruise control, the computer is reading 22-23 mpg. I do have the air suspension so it does lower at highway speeds and the ac was running. I will say at 80 mph I...

    They are one of the most expensive in the area. In fact I would avoid South Florida altogether, as their pricing is anything but competitive. If anything check out Joey Accardi as they will show the actual dealership discount and depending on circumstances, I've seen them in excess of $5000...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I agree with you and I tell the dealer the same thing. They can make money on the next guy who falls for all of their bologna. They tried to show me a purchase order for the used truck I bought that said they paid $34k at auction. In my mind they were way to eager to show that number, so I...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I don't have any input on the incentive based financing, but that $500 hardly seemed worth it. Depending on who you refinance with you may have to pay doc fees again. Some places offset this by offering a $200 "free" deposit into a checking or savings account, if you open one with them. Overall...

    Best place to purchase Mopar official Mopar warranty- dont buy from local dealer!

    Ok so what is the deal with living in Florida and trying to purchase these plans? These companies insist you have to pay over $3000 for the 8y/100k plan because it's "restricted" by the state. But when you go on Florida CFO website and read the statute, it specifically states the statute does...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    So I've been stalking this forum since March to try and get the best idea for a good deal on a Ram 1500. A little back story, due to personal/life issues I was forced to trade in a 2019 Ford Mustang because of insufficient seating. Well I didn't want just another boring car or SUV, so I settled...
