Replying to: eltipo (May 01, 2008 5:54 am) Forget about edmunds TMV on new vehicles. It is many times optimistic (for the dealer) and grossly optimistic for trucks. (I wonder what it is on a new 08 42000 ram?-- worth 20000 wholesale in a 12 months) Check out my message 4681 on the hyundai sonata forum for useful info on how to buy a car. Forget about bringing in paperwork for negotiating. Get 10-20 + bids via email from dodge dealers last week of the month for 08s. Work the top 2-3 against one another, eventually via cell phone. If your leftover 07 dealer won't chop at least 2000-3000 off your best deal on a similar 08 forget about it. Good luck --jjf

Replying to: jfritsch (May 01, 2008 3:15 am) jfritsch, I wanted to ask if the wholesale price you are getting from KBB on the 2007 Truck is the OTD price or whether you then add TT&L??? It kind of sounds like you are saying the KBB price is the OTD price but I wanted to clairify. Thanks in advance! |

Replying to: sleukem (May 14, 2008 8:38 am) I think from my other post the 30k is inoperative. When I looked up the used wholesale price of an 07 41000 msrp ram (avg miles 14000) the 20000 figure was a bit surprising, but not much. Actually you may want to try for a much lower price as I see today I am paying $4.05 a gallon. Also don't forget to aggressively try for prices on the 08, (my msg #4681 in Hyundai Sonata prices paid forum) as people don't usually have much success (although they think they do) with demo's. Good Luck --jjf

Replying to: jfritsch (May 14, 2008 11:25 am) I am considering buying a 08 Dodge Ram 2500 4wd 6.7l 6-speed manual. MSRP on the trucks I am looking at is around $44,000. It will be my first pickup and am wondering what price I should be able to realistically bargain them down to. One dealer sent me an e-mail quote of 33,500 so I expect I can do better than this but I don't have a clue how low they can go hell thats 10,500 off MSRP by e-mail how are these trucks priced??. Any advice experience welcome. Thanks P

Can someone work with me on leasing a new Ram 1500?? I have a web page with a lease calculator, and here is what I'm working with. My trade is worth 2500 (or so but 2500 is a solid number) I don't want to put any money down, and I do have lease loyalty. I don't see anywhere in these posts a money factor or residual value. Does anyone know these?? Thanks, Steve |

The truck I'm looking at has a Msrp of 40000

Replying to: cynar10 (Jun 05, 2008 11:08 am) Your 40000 vehicle will have a trade in value of 18000 (probably less) in 12 months. ((look up an 07 on kbb.com or nada.com) Personally I would want something around 350/mo (preferably 300 or less with good credit) with no money down and 15000 miles/yr for 36 months with tax (7% in my state). Subtract 70/mo for your ttrade. I would prefer to sell it myself than prepay a lease with trade money down. If you put 5000 down to lower the payments and the vehicle is totalled I believe the insurance pays off the car and the remaining (lower) payments of the lease to the bank and you eat the 5000. 2500 is less than that but still. Good luck --jjf The truck I'm looking at has a Msrp of 40000 |

Replying to: sleukem (May 14, 2008 8:38 am) I was wondering if you have purchased the Dodge Ram and what your comments are if you have. We are currently looking at the Quad Cab, Diesel, it will be used to haul a stock trailer. I am also concerned about pricing, and this will be the first "new" vehicle we have purchased. If you have completed the purchase I would like to know your thoughts/comments, and if you are enjoying the new truck? Thanks. |
