It’s the southwest package “value” that kills it for me. It’s absolutely one of the best deals in loading out a Laramie, but you end up with the body paint grill surround and that only narrowly avoids looking cheap in a few colors. Give me chrome or black or I’ll just get a Sierra with lesser options but nicer leather.

I think the only way to get it at the moment is with the advanced safety package - I still see surround view camera system in there.
It is a confusing naming system - the advanced safety package includes the 360 surround view camera for the truck but does not include the additional camera and wire harness for adding a trailer. When I ordered 4 weeks ago you could add the trailer 360 surround view camera as a stand-alone option (at least on the build site) but now that is gone. I've noticed the build and price site changes frequently so the only way to actually know what can be ordered on a given day is to talk with a dealer to actually look in their order system. Even if you place an order with options it seems that isn't a gurantee the truck they deliver will have everything you ordered as they sometimes make changes and sometimes show a 'credit' on the final build.

I was actually in contact with corporate about the system. I ordered a limited, and when it came in it was missing it, so I didn't purchase it. It's still sitting at the dealer. I had to go through a half dozen people there. They told me finally that it would be available again in mid April. To this day it's not. It still shows available on certain models on the build and price, but I don't think it is actually available on any models.

I just got an email for $1,750 bonus cash allowance. Probably won't end up using it, but let's see. Good through 6/30.

Was this in response to the pop-up add on the ram site? I had received a code from that ad back in April when I was ordering that expired May 2nd so I just submitted the info again today and got a new code good until 6/10/23 but it is still only for $1,000

Yes, related to the pop up, but initially I received the $1k code for the pop up. But since they have my email, they occasionally send me a $1,750 code offer. I got one a few months back also, I think it was in December.

good to know - maybe I'll get a similar offer just before the truck is delivered!

Interesting- that is much more restrictive than the $1,000 bonus cash code I got from Ram from the website pop-up. The one I got is good for lease or purchase and for 2022 or 2023.

I still have a $1k bonus cash that's unexpired. But yeah, looks like the $1,750 is good for purchasing only on a 2023. Seems it could be applied to any Ram 1500 model other than TRX.

It says lower in the document Laramie only I thought?

….and probably doesn’t stack with the 10% deal.

That's true. But my understanding is the $1k bonus cash is not stackable either. So either way, if you take the 10%, you are losing those.

Like I said in an earlier post, it will probably go unused. If it's not stackable, it's of very limited use and its value is greatly diminished. If I have to give something else up to use it, what's the benefit?

I really want to order the Laramie with that 10% off but as of last night, still can't get the Hemi with the 5' 7" box.
