my buddy at work says the same thing. He has a 08 ram 2500 Cummins I believe it is and he has had it for years with no issues and almost 300k miles. Says he could never see himself paying upwards of 70-80k for a new diesel. Another buddy just bought a used 2019 2500 with a Cummins and paid like $70k for it. too much for a used truck IMO
I know right!
Here's a thread on another forum describing the oil change on the 3rd gen diesel. It doesn't seem that mysterious really! This thread doesn't cover the fuel filter though.
Sorry for delay. It was Smooth as silk. Was able to track it on ram apps and they showed up right on time. I’m actually in south Houston as well (Pearland).
Thanks for the reply and the tip on casino bus. i will look into that. I am in League City, patiently waiting the call from MD. Train was due in on the 8th, so hopefully this week!
Absolutely. I want to say mine was like 5 days from train getting in to getting to the lot. Here's the bus I was looking at, they leave from Gulfgate mall. Ultimately, I decided not to spend a total of 5 hours of driving when I could have it on my doorstep for free. Initially I was worried about some teenager ripping my baby down I-10 but it was a really nice senior who drove it. Probably does it as a retirement gig.
Most likely a phone call from Aaron. You will get an email as well from Aaron that tells you "Whats Next". You will discuss final price and any rebates etc. Then you will do a zoom call with finance. They will discuss your payment options and extended warranty. They have a good warranty that you can negotiate to a good price, but max is 6 years. At 5 years and change, you can add another year, but they could not give price now. Main reason why I stuck with Ziegler Mopar warranty. There's is better in that you can see whatever mechanic you choose. They will pay the mechanic at time of service via credit card over the phone. Since the plan is to keep longer than that, I did not fit the profile for their warranty.
Mine was due in on the 8th on the train as well. We gave family in Lake Charles so we decided to roll the dice and take a spring break trip from the 13th -18th to pick up the new RAM. Stopped into Mark yesterday and it sounded like the truck still hadn't been off loaded from the train after 5 days. Really hoping it gets delivered in the next few four days...
Did something change since late December? I definitely have an 8 year LDS Ultimate.
That was not offered to me. And I told him that the 6 years and unknown price beyond was a problem for me. I have to assume that they do not go 8 years any longer as he was aware that was a major point for me. He was making a point that most people don't keep truck beyond 5 to 6 years so no need to go beyond that with warranty.
Yep, can't blame you. I'd have gone with the Mopar warranty as well if I didn't get 8 years.
Mine was in the safe.
Omg. Didn’t think to open the safe. I just assumed it was locked LOL. Thank you!
