Be careful of too many credit checks. Banks/cu's watch that and get nervous if they see several credit checks. They figure you must be having a problem... I agree with Stanford: There are some really great after market items available. A good pickup is like a member of the family and I don't mind buying "presents" for it. I learned long ago that you really do get what you pay for..That doesn't mean to pay more for the same item at one place vs. another. Dodge wants $57 for side window vent shades. In their brochure it says they are made by Auto Vent Shade. They now stick on the outside,where they used to fit under the window rubber.Pep-Boys sells Auto Vent Shade brand for $30. Both prices are cash and carry. On the other hand, I paid several hundred dollars for the Remote start,engine kill,auto door lock/unlock security system. Because I wanted it installed by a real professional,with a lifetime warranty from the installer and the mfg. and 3yrs from Dodge. kip

Another place to save some bucks is the extended warranty. Dodge wanted $1800 for 7yr 70,000 mile warranty. It is not a chrysler backed warranty. It is backed by some ins. co..On the edmunds page you can get the same coverage for about half that. Hmmm... What can I buy "RED" for $900?? kip
