Price negotiated from MSRP

[RAM1500_SoCal]

If you don’t mind me asking... did you get the oc e price or did they go lower? If so how much lower? Thanks.

We started negotiations at the OC e-price and then worked our way from there. Was able to get about 4% more discounted from the e-price. Ended up doing a 3 yr. lease with 12k miles per year and $0 down. Made it very hard for me to walk away from the deal with no money out of pocket. Signed for the truck and drove it home

To echo an earlier question, when you guys are talking about your price under invoice, that includes rebates, correct?

How many have used the affiliate program through Tread Lightly or their business to get the automatic 1% under plus rebates and cash back? I'm trying to decide if that is likely a better deal and it's the rebates that you are all including to calculate your percent under invoice paid.

Thanks

What discounts are included in Koons price as shown? ONLY the $1500 consumer money all the rest is their discount . What other rebates might you qualify for? Usaa, penfed, conquest etc. Penfed only.

Without knowing the details I'd lean towards Koons and buy the call vs the put. Discounts more often go up with time.

I found a good deal in San Diego. The dealer was asking $39k, MSRP $52k, so I flew to SoCal the next day! After taxes+registration fees I paid $45k out the door and drove it 560 miles back home!

What made you sell your raptor. I've seen you over on the raptor forums. Been debating a gen1 but still leaning towards a ram at this point

 

[19Jake]

Took a Rebel for a ride on a day off. Really impressed & swung a killer deal. With sales tax savings figured in I basically got what I paid for the Raptor in Dec '16. If not for the Rebel 12 package, it wouldn'ta happened! Phenomenal deal all around. Also took a '19 Sierra At4 out that day...it came dead last.

Well, congratulations on the new purchase.

@T_Strey5 I bought from Winter Haven Dodge @ 299 Cypress Gardens Blvd. My sales guy was Mike Pereira. Ferman New Port Richey first quoted me 8% below invoice and Winter Haven matched it and I went with them based on the truck's options. These were the only two dealers that anything close to what I was looking for. I worked everything over the phone/text/email before driving over to finalize the purchase. I had also worked with Saul at Thunder in Bartow. I really wanted to buy from him ... great customer service (and I never even met him). I was originally looking at a Bighorn from them, but changed to the Laramie. They called me the last day of October to throw me a great deal on the Bighorn, but it was too late.

Good luck!

Shoutout to Saul @ Thunder! I had the same great experience with him, but like you, ended up buying elsewhere.

All,

New to the forum here, and glad to be a new RAM owner as of last Saturday! My last new Ram was a Quad Cab I bought in 1999, and have had 3 Chevy Avalanches since.

I had to search forever to find the package I wanted, nobody locally in Southeastern VA had it. Here's what I bought:
2019 Laramie 4 X 4, with the following options:

1. 6'-4" Bed
2. Diamond Black Crystal Pearl Coat
3. Black Appearance Package
4. 5.7L Hemi w/Etorque engine
5. 4 Corner Air Suspension
6. Level 2 Equipment Group
7. Uconnect 12" Display
8. Tri-fold Tonneau Cover
9. 22" Polished and Painted Wheels (which I don't want)
10. Trailer Tow Group
11. Panoramic Sunroof
12. 33 Gallon Fuel Tank
13. Black Leather Trimmed Bucket Seats
14. Rear Wheelhouse Liners
15. Power Running Boards
16. Single Disc Remote CD Player
17. Rear Underseat Compartment Storage
18. Bed Utility Group

After a ton of searching for what I wanted, I found almost exactly it - the only things missing from the above that I wanted are Rambox and the Advanced Safety Group. Here's the deal I negotiated directly with the sales manager in New Jersey:

MSRP - $66,635
Sell price - $59,455 ($7,180 off)
Rebates - $5,000 (USAA Member certificate $1k, Truck Owner Conquest -$1k, Retail Consumer Cash $3k)
= $12,180 off MSRP.

Trade in Value 2013 Chevy Avalanche - $23,500

+$1,492.14 New Jersey SALES TAX (4.15%)
+$153.75 MOTOR VEHICLE
+$399.00 DEALER DOC FEE
$32,999.89 TOTAL OUT THE DOOR

This is the 2013 Chevy Avalanche that I offered as trade in (very good shape, (86k miles) which we agreed at $23,500.

Delivery - $200 to my driveway (about 300 miles each way)

After all that, the dealer called ( I was now turned over to a salesman) the next day and said he had bad news, that the truck had been used as a demo and the sales manager wasn't aware of that. I asked why they would use the most expensive Ram on the lot as a demo, and he replied that the owner was the one driving it and that he owned 17 dealerships, LOL. So I asked how many miles and how long it had been driven, he said 2 weeks and 1800 miles. I asked about a discount for that. After talking with the sales manager, he said they had discounted as much as they could. So I told him I thought they were low on my trade in and could go up $1k, which they did, it went up to $24,500. I ended up paying $31,958.39 with trade in.

Here's what this beautiful beast looks like! That said, I am changing out the rims - anyone interested in them please make me an offer.

Great info, thanks a lot!

Anybody price out or use Costco to buy your truck? Wondering if it’s worth while or are you better off just negotiating straight w/ the dealer.

I used TrueCar through Sam’s and Costco but got a better price direct from the dealers.
