I ordered a Limited with pretty much every option and got $11,500 off MSRP. Shopped several dealers and kept going until I got a couple that couldn’t beat the price I ended up at. The MSRP was around $68K USD
What dealer please?

Hi, thanks a lot. I looked at some of your past messages and I see what you bought.

I have a couple questions please -
1. How long did your truck take to arrive?
2. Would you please suggest how I might go about negotiating the type of good deal you got from him. I hate negotiating but I will do it if I must.

Heard there pretty aggressive with pricing so maybe just mention the deal and the forums . I believe they’ve gotten quite a bit of business from here .

Sadly you might not be able to get that great of a deal then. I’m not saying you can’t but if you are ONLY going by what you saw on a website and have yet to speak to someone in detail I wouldn’t hold my breathe.

A dealer by me LOVES to post their internet price with every rebate under God’s green earth knowing full well everyone won’t qualify. They do this just to make the price seem super low. On top of that they claim they are removing the destination fee out and try to charge for your it a second time. Hell they had 66k Limiteds claiming to be on sale for 52k.

To answer your question if you can seriously get 13,500 that’s an ABSURD deal compared to most. I got a little more than 11,000 and that was awesome and I shopped around a lot before I ordered. Like I said though if you have yet to talk to someone I’d take these internet prices with a grain of salt.
Hey where did you buy from?

On number 2 - there is no negotiating with Craig. You send him the truck build you want, he will price it. It will be 7% below invoice, plus any cash incentives from Ram, plus tax, tag and $699 dealer fee.

I ordered from Craig on 10/5 and he said likely 6-8 weeks for delivery.

Walked in to look at a Big Horn and walking out with a 2019 Laramie 4x4 Hemi eTorque.

MSRP $55,900
Dealer Discount $6,708
Selling Price $49,192
Rebates $3,750
Money Factor = .00009
Residual % = 57% or $31,863
Leasing at $0 down for 3 yrs./12k mi. for $520/mo.

We started negotiations at $610/mo and worked our way to $520. Was trying to get $510 for about an hour and wouldn’t budge. Happy with the deal especially with $0 out of pocket.

Need a little help deciding on these 2 offers @KJRam , factory order, Thanks in advance!

MSRP on a Limited 65405

Local dealer 53905 he keeps any incentives available at time of delivery but he is locking (included) 2500 now
Dealer 600 miles away (Koons) 54081 less any incentives available at delivery

Both said that the current 1500 consumer cash is protected on sold orders and included above. Processing fee and tag are virtually the same for both. I am wondering what the local dealer knows that has him insisting on keeping any incentives over 2500? Any thoughts appreciated.

Karmasoft, you were able to order etorque?
What was your order date?

Mike67, I was unable to order eTorque. I called six Ram dealers and heard, "end of November," to, "sometime in January," -- apparently the eTorque option is currently disabled on their electronic order form. Given the ambiguity, and given the dealer had a unit with eTorque and options close enough to what I wanted, I went for it.

Anybody know the hold up with the eTorque? Is it a shortage? I think they're both (6 and 8) being supplied by different third party manufacturers.

Just wondering if anybody heard of potential issues, or if simply a supply problem.

I was told that between the V6 eTorque kicking off and higher than expected orders for it, they’re having trouble getting enough supplies.

Does anyone have a dealership they could recommend in Southern California that'll sell their vehicle below invoice? I found a dealer in IL that's 9% below invoice but would like to save myself the 2k mile drive back.

I thought you had a guy in Temecula?
