I think it is real good considering it is a 2020 but is this across the board or just that dealership?
That was exactly the issue in my case. They double-dipped it. After I pointed it out, the salesman emailed back and said I could get it discounted off, but I decided to just leave dealers who played games (hoping you'd miss it) alone and never went up. It's fine if you scrutinize every line and double check to make sure you are not getting hit with any extra costs, fees or "asterisks" on rebates. I had gotten a bad taste in my mouth over the whole thing so I didn't care what they were offering for savings. If you are happy with them then that's great. I can recommend Kernersville RAM in Kernersville NC, salesman (older guy been there 24 years) named David.We bought my wife a Jeep Cherokee from Koons recently and had a good experience. The processing fee was the same as listed. I believe the issue/question on the delivery fee is to whether they are double dipping with it, but based on how it looked on our invoice it appears they don't, or didn't for us at least. They do remove it to show a lower price, then add it back in, but they didn't add it twice.
I'll be going back when they get 2020's with diesels in.
If I had let my head rule over the emotions (of getting pissed off) I could have paid a bit less and had a 33 gallon tank and 3.92’s, plus (supposedly) a tonneau cover. However I’d have had a difficult time convincing my wife (who detests car buying) that the additional options were worth it. In the end its are you happy. Theres a poster who loves to fight the dealer for every nickel, and if that floats your boat, fine. Since it was a truck for her, I decided she was more important.Yeah, I found it odd that the RAM dealers in my area (Washington, D.C.) all seem to do this - adding the destination fee back in. The Ford dealers don't do it (at least not when I've been shopping for one).
That said, the dealers were all comparably-priced, and I got a decent deal for May 2019, so I don't really care what they do with the numbers so long as the OTD price is what I'm happy paying. They can discount the truck $40,000 off and then add in the destination 23.5 times and it doesn't really bother me.

The Koons pricing is legit, or at least it was when I got mine there last fall. They're a high volume dealer, so they tend to offer larger discounts than other dealerships.I had asked Lara RAM outside of St Louis for a quote, they promptly gave me one and listed all costs. As they were still several thousand above the DC dealer, I asked if Lara would match. They said no, as they didnt believe the DC price was really going to happen (improper discounts and hidden fees). A least Lara appeared to be straight shooters.

This is on a basically loaded 2020 Limited. I however hate chrome and am trying to find a Sport package Laramie with similar options.
Thats great for you.The Koons pricing is legit, or at least it was when I got mine there last fall. They're a high volume dealer, so they tend to offer larger discounts than other dealerships.
what rebates are they ?So I contacted Criswell ram after seeing a post about them and I sent them the order sheet I got from a local dealer that has ordered my 2020 ram Laramie quad but have yet to talk price and these folks sent me an interesting price back right awaySticker is 56420 and they took off 13% and then told me I get 4K in rebates for a total of 45K. That is tempting but they are on east coast and I am in Omaha. Going to consider this hard if my dealer here is not close to that price. I did not think rebates would be out on 2020’s just yet let alone 4K worth

Carl wilhelmWhat salesperson did you deal with? It might've been me that mentioned them - that's where I bought my truck.
Most of the salespeople there are good and easy to work with, and they seem to know trucks more than most dealers I've been to.

I would think the military one would only apply to servicemembers and the conquest one would only apply to folks who have a non-Ram truck, so unless you fall into those two groups, it sounds like they're quoting all *available* incentives, not the ones you'd actually get.20CL1 2020 National Retail Consumer Cash 20CL1

My dealer ordered a truck for me yesterday and sent me the build sheet. Did you guys negotiate price before the order or afterwards? My dealer is saying we will meet once the order is confirmed. I made it clear I am not paying sticker and I plan on getting 5-10% off the invoice column on right side or I have no problem walking and then finding a 2020 on the lot. Just curious on some experiences here since I never ordered before. Thanks
