    Diesel even worth it still?

    Currently looking around at prices from 5.80- 5.95 per gallon in upstate NY. and I’ve had diesel trucks for years, this is insanity. a tank of gas is 200 dollars in my ram. that’s damn near a full days work after tax just to pay the damn fuel bill and it was half of that when certain “entities”...

    No, I quoted a bunch of dealers and was on the phone all week for my truck, md send me a quote 10k under MSRP AND had a grand deposit(had other quotes as high as 6k) The “shut up and take my money” meme was never more appropriate. I felt it was only fair to accept the offer and save the PILE of...

    sweet Spot in flights is Two weeks, If i were you, start looking at booking a flight once its at the port to time it best, but i can also see good justification for paying a little extra to fly down as soon as it hits the parking lot

    yea i drove through that corridor both to get the truck and on the way home. super cool highway, most of it is elevated over the swamps and provides a pretty cool drive if you're not from the area

    Just trying to have some fun

    very much same, i live in upstate NY, a 2X4 up here is pretty much non existent. unless you just need a farm truck beater for moving feed or hay, a 2X4 is pretty much considered useless up here.

    Pretty sure that’s the bridge crossing the Mississippi in Baton Rouge, if that’s the case the rail depot is just AFTER that camera and the trucks on-ramp right in that spot Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It works Well enough, it’s not a Fast charger but it works better on iPhones for sure, when I brought the truck home had a galaxy note ten plus and was too big for it with a case. and it was only marginally better than maintaining a charge, the iPhone 13 pro I have now I see about 15% charge an...

    had them install the Wireless Phone Charger in mine, just sent the parts manager the part and they did the rest, they charged @ market rate i didnt notice any discount but it was set up before i arrived and that was worth the price to me

    you could do some extrapolation, i distinctly recall their earnings reports including information on product margin. id look for that by segment (i/e Pickup trucks) im pretty sure its close to 40%. pick three time periods, one with normal market conditions pre 2020, one in early 2020 when their...

    yes, If you like a little shameless Fun, shop a MD quote around and watch sales managers and reps get real Butthurt at how much money they would lose matching it. it is offending to them because its so low it demolishes any ability for them to grab your cash

    2022 TIRES?

    Depends on wheel size, standard on most trucks are the Bridgestone Duelers, the aforementioned Pirellis Come on the 22" shoes, And the Falken Wildpeaks for the Off road package. depends on the rim size and some configurations

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    too many Confounding variables, this Excludes continued exaggerated inflation, rate hikes from the fed that may artificially lower demand but also continued strain to the supply chain for chips. to assume incentives get better, you have to also assume inflation wont be eating their margins if...

    Ram for plowing?

    Agreed, find a beater or a towable for snow removal, My grandfather still uses his 2021 1500 for plowing, they had to do A LOT to equip the truck for it and even then it beats the S*** out of it, i plow my property with my yanmar with skids mounted to the bucket, that works pretty well with a...

    Wireless carplay

    You have the uconnect4, Wireless Carplay was added only in UC5, So for model year 2022 only so far. others can correct me if I'm wrong but i do believe you need the wired Connection for Carplay on a 2019-2021.
