Nice looking truck. Congrats on the 30% off. I’ve been to two dealers. Best discount I had was 25% off. One place would only go 20% off. I’m going to try one more dealer and just stick with my f150 for now.
I was going back and forth on different trim levels with multiple dealers. Two of the dealers were at 25.8% off MSRP and wouldn't budge. At this 3rd dealer, I just planted my *** in the seat and just wore them out. We were at $46,720 (27.5%) for the longest time, which would have been 27.5% and I said I was going to think about it overnight and got up ready to leave. He then said what it would take to finish it, and I said $45,121 (30%) (which is what I originally opened with several hours earlier!!). After 10 minutes, to my actual surprise, he came back and said we had a deal. Had to take a deep breath, and then shook his hand and the rest is history......... My final advice, if you really want the best price, you have to be persistent. I don't get emotional about it. At the end of the day, it's a business transaction. My time is money, but every $$ counts, and I felt that the effort put in was worth the ultimate savings I got.

Recently picked up my 4X2 Laramie, Delmonico Red Pearl, sport appearance package, 12" display. MSRP $52,705, got it for $36,600 plus TT&L. Fort Worth, TX. Super pumped about this truck.

That 4 digit number on the sticker for the rebel I’m looking at is 0521... not sure that makes sense for my sticker, gonna try n post a pic of it for some assistance

So my truck I got yesterday was built 12/18 and I did get 30% off, which is good. Is this still considered an early build? Should I too be prepared to spend a lot of time with the service department?
No Dec is not early. Early is more like up through maybe September. You may not even have the issues some are reporting, mine is a Jan build and I haven't had any of the reported issues other than a slight bump on down or upshifts, however it’s not that noticeable.

Just picked up a Rebel at 21% off MSRP. May 2019 build for 46800. How’d I do? Thinking it was a good deal for my dream truck. 28701

^ If I'm doing the math correctly, this may be the best discount I've heard/seen for this round of deals. 31.6%!
It was a deal I couldn't say no too. I spent an extra day trying to beat it and couldn't get anywhere close.

I just picked up mine this week. Msrp of 59940, Got it for. 44k, but I worked into my deal to have the dealer pay the taxes and also buy and install my wheels which I got 18” Fuel Zephyr wheels in candy red. And then had in my trade in. I only financed $34k. I think I made out pretty good. What do y’all think.

Hi everyone, new member from Virginia here! Picked up my unit 2 weeks ago, MSRP $52,440. Selling price $34,800 plus tax and fees. Only thing that wasn’t my preference was the white color. But given this price and this unit having all of the other specs I wanted (except Air suspension), I’ll make it work :)

After narrowing things down to three dealers I saw to have great pricing I watched things for 8 months. Finally last week one of the dealers started to discount Ram's heavily, to include the Limited. Today I picked up a fully loaded Limited that sticker for $68,890 for $50,571. Here is the dealer and the deal https://www.temperam.com/inventory/new/Ram/
Even I am amazed at this price and because I waited for so long and kept my eye on the ball, it paid off. Ficken LOVE the truck, absolutely amazing.

Everyone seems to be getting solid deals. Ram is really aggressive and smartly so. I saw very little flexibility on the Denali and LTZ trucks and even less on SUV's.

MSRP $68,595 Sale Price $54,000 included tinted front windows, slush mats and 5x100k B2B Warranty incl Appearance, Roadside, etc. Lifetime car washes should I ever be over that way haha. As importantly, got them up to $31,500 on my trade which is near the high end of the KBB range (and the vehicle was throwing 2 codes, needed big $$$ rear mag ride air shocks and a few other decent repairs). Rate at 3.39%. If you put the warranty, windows and mats in the MSRP it's a bit over 24% below sticker. I'm more than satisfied considering I searched for maybe 2 weeks and this dealer ended up being the closest, negotiation and all paperwork was prepared through text or email and it really was a painless process. Test drove and returned the following day to sign. I won't do the 12 hours of badgering and another 8 hours with the finance guy with them trying to get money back. Even got my $50 Amazon Gift Card. They are about identical on the 5x100k Warranty then Zeigler on the 8x125k so I wish I had done a bit more research and known that pricing before, but it would be unusual for me to keep the vehicle that long so I'll live.

You did well, especially your trade needing the repairs. Bet they didn't know what that will end up costing, if they even fix. Note to self, don’t buy a used GM from that dealer! :unsure:

Just picked up my first Ram this weekend here in Missouri, switching over from a Ford F-150. I've been so unimpressed with Ford the last couple years and had a lot of issues with my 2018 F-150 so decided to sell it to Carvana (which was extremely painless and they offered me 1.7k more than any dealer).
I got the Laramie Sport 4x4 sticker price of $56,425 and finally settled with the dealer at $41,700 including wheel locks and pinstrips (which the truck already had on) and their dealer fee. Everything included, puts it just over $15,000 off (26.6% off). It looks like some other got a little better deal but I'm extremely happy with the Ram! Glad I switched - It runs better, shifts better, and has a much more classy interior. I keep finding new features on the truck every time I drive it...excited to be driving this for a long time.

Congrats! Fellow new member from Virginia. That's one hell of a deal! Nearly 34% off MSRP. Which dealer did you go through? I went through Lindsay in Manassas.

Would like to thank everyone for posting their negotiated prices. It's been a big help since I've been looking for a new Ram 1500 for the last couple of months. I ended up purchasing one this past week in Wisconsin. Build date in March 2019. Metallic Steel, non e-torque, Limited 4x4. MSRP of $67,440. Purchase price of $47,619 +TTL.
