Price negotiated from MSRP

Thanks!

This is right down the street, i'll have to reach out and see what they can do

Caveat: that is on an ordered truck. Not many dealers are budging on in stock inventory, if they even have any.

Inventory will be low everywhere, aside from current market conditions, 2021s are no longer being built and 2022s haven't quite started yet AFAIK.

Mark Dodge will be your spot if you're willing to order, and don't want to waste any of your own time. You may find a comparable price elsewhere, but you'll have to actually work for it.

It seems like even with shipping from LA, you'll end up ahead with their pricing. But YMMV, I didn't purchase through them - just what I've seen many other users experience. Worth at least getting a quote if you're planning on ordering.

Not opposed to a 2022, just wanting to take advantage of the current trade in values, i'll reach out to them to see what they can make happen. Thanks for the information!

If you can swing it, you could just sell straight to Carvana, Carmax or Vroom. I’ve had top dollar offers from all three of them.

Airpark is the dealer i was looking at, they are giving about 8% off of their on lot trucks at the end of each month. Again, adding in dealer fees and requiring financing through their in house financing. I'm still trying to get them at the number I had in mind but keeping my options open.

When ordering a truck, I'm guessing dealers cannot give you any guaranteed trade in value, I'm assuming it would be calculated at the time of the actual transaction?

I have an offer from givemethevin, which say they work with dealers but this specific dealer said they only do their own in house arrangements. Im trying to trade in specifically for the tax break, i bought a 2021 1500 a few months back and just looking to move up to the 2500

8% off on the lot inventory is really good right now. You can finance with them and then just refi after it’s yours.

Mark Dodge will give you a trade in value that is good for 90days. Not sure about @AndreaChapmanScottsdale.

Was the trade in value from the dealer the same or higher than the others? The tax break ends up being an average of $600 per 10k depending on the state. If carvana is offering 2-3k more, it probably comes out to be the same in the end.

The offer i received from gmtv was 3k higher than what the dealer was offering, I'm trying to get them closer to that number, we'll see where they land but sounds like they might not be too far off.

Cool, not sure what gmtv is but sounds like you could sell it and basically come out the same. Makes it easy when you can just walk around into a dealer and not worry about trades.

Heads up Mark Dodge is dropping to 60 days for the trade quote duration. That is still very flexible and they are not being overly restrictive on mileage also. Very helpful.

Yup, that's what they told me too when I ordered my 2022 3500. Their 60 day offer was $3k less than a trading it in today offer of $48k for my 2019 1500 Limited that vroom offered $52k for.

Just wondering what dealer would pay the most for my 2019 ram 2500 limited, like writing me a check. My deal with mark dodge has no trade included to my purchase. Delivery of 22 expected 1st week October.

Did you speak to someone separately regarding the possible trade in, or your salesperson you ordered from?

That was directly from Sandi when I asked her if she could get them to give me a ballpark for my current truck so I knew if there was any point in looking to trade it in to them when my new truck arrives. I'm not bothered, I just sold a camper for $5500 more than I was offered for trade in, and within $3k of what we bought it for 4 years ago.

I'm hoping the market on used trucks doesn't soften too much between now and when I'm ready to sell my truck (for my sake, which I understand is a bit selfish), which will probably be listed once I know my new truck is built and on the train, October-ish. If so I'm hoping to get around $55k+/- depending on what comps are in the area at the time, which would also be within about $3k of what I bought my 2019 1500 Limited for.

They are hard to beat on pricing, huh?

They (Mark Dodge) beat the dealer I bought my 2019 1500 from by $5500, and promised to pass on any incentives at the time of delivery, which my local dealership never quite said yes to.

Not including any incentives it came to 11.5% off of MSRP. With the Penfed $1000 discount it's 12.5% off of MSRP, and that's on a pretty loaded up 2022 3500 Limited megacab.

MSRP: $93,135 USD
Cash Price: $82,485 USD
