Are dealers hurting right now? A local dealer by me is advertising 20% off some 22 1500's online. 14k off MSRP before incentives.
When I bought my truck nearly a year ago they wouldn't budge from MSRP.
Around here there are very few 22's left on the lots - we're seeing 10-12% off for the 22's. 23's are still close to MSRP with some discounts of 3-5% on the lower trims, and full MSRP on the higher models.
There’s a lot of lower trim “standard” options inventory left. Especially with the interest rates creeping up for over a year.Are dealers hurting right now? A local dealer by me is advertising 20% off some 22 1500's online. 14k off MSRP before incentives.

I think dealers are trying to move the remaining 22s they offering close to 13 grand off by me but you have to choose from whatever they have left in a 22Are dealers hurting right now? A local dealer by me is advertising 20% off some 22 1500's online. 14k off MSRP before incentives.

What modifications did they do for the over $20,000? The highest I could do a build and price on a 23 Big Horn, was just over $70,000. That was with the highest price wheels, which they have obviously replaced, but therefore they wouldn't have ordered those. I know you didn't pay that, but that is a ridiculous price for a Big Horn, no matter what they did to it.
That's why I was asking. A lot you can't see. Still an extremely high price, for what it includes. You could do it yourself for half the price, and still have the factory parts to resell. It would only be overpaying if you didn't get the deal.
That is true. But for some it's the benefit and ease of having the truck modified by a manufacturer approved 3rd party and with the truck being sold as new, you get to have the price of the modifications financed through your truck loan rather than pay for all the modifications after purchasing the truck. The Rocky Ridge trucks are not for me but if you are into lifted trucks, it's an easy way to get into one.
Just because it is sold at the dealer, doesn't mean it's manufacturer approved. Back in the day of custom vans, I was a mechanic at dealerships. We did not repair any modifications. The owner had to take it to the custom company that did the modifications. This may or may not be the case with this, but it is possible, that although it comes with a warranty, it probably is not covered by manufacturer warranty on anything modified. If there are any suspension problems, for example, the owner may have to take it directly to the mod shop, or take it to the dealer, who will send it out to the mod shop for repairs.
My understanding of Rocky Ridge, at least from their website, is that they buy directly from the manufacturer, do the modifications, and then send the truck to participating dealers to be sold as new by the dealership. It does carry a separate warranty from Rocky Ridge, but I'm not sure what parts of the factory warranty still do or don't apply.

That is the same was the custom van companies did it back then. If it involves a part installed at the factory, it is repaired under factory warranty. The dealer has access to parts. Any parts not factory installed, would have to be repaired by the modifier. If there was a problem, like a gap in the fender flare, we would not repair it, they would have to take it elsewhere. Some dealers may do some minor things as a courtesy.My understanding of Rocky Ridge, at least from their website, is that they buy directly from the manufacturer, do the modifications, and then send the truck to participating dealers to be sold as new by the dealership.

FAQ's — Rocky Ridge Trucks
How the upfitting process works, and frequently asked questions about Rocky Ridge Lifted trucks.
Everything that Rocky Ridge did to the truck is covered at any Ram dealership for 3years 36000k miles just like the bumper to bumper coverage. Yes I have done close to this same build on older ram trucks for about 12k but with these rebates was cheaper to buy this way and didn't void warranty. I have a friend that has the Black widow package and had 1 problem with his truck and was serviced at the dealership.
