This is pretty late but during the Employee Pricing event(12/17), I purchased a 2019 Ram 3500 SRW Laramie. MSRP was $74,995 with the sale price of $60,409.00. My OTD was $63,057.00 with NC taxes. I also got the 0% for 36 months.

Yesterday I bought a 2020 Ram crew cab, short bed, 4x4, HO Cummins & Aisin, plus several addons. The MSRP is 77,505.00.
I shopped several on line discounters and local dealers in Oregon and my San Diego area dealer where my grandson in law is the General Sales Manager.
Dillon was the best with a 16+% discount for in stock trucks and 11.53% or 12 .71% depending on the addons if ordered.
None would negotiate except Dave Smith was willing to negotiate. They had what I wanted and they started out at 8.22% off MSRP, then 10.5% the final deal is 17.55% if I would finance through them for it least 6 months. FYI, they will also ship . The rate to San Diego was 1100.00. I figure my expenses to go get will be approx 1,000.00.
I hope this helps someone

I'd say you got a great deal is that's 15.7 % off of MSRP
Well i do have to be honest. I'm retired an i started negotiating with this salesman 6 months ago on a 19 then when i heard about the 20s getting the 50 gal tank an i told him i would rather wait for the ultimate machine. There not used to buyers being as patient as we were. I'm also stoked about what we got on trade as well. I got them to give me more now than 6 months ago with fewer miles. Now i just hope the build goes smooth an don't take over 3 months to get here. Fingers crossed.
Ordered a 2020 3500 Limited 4x4 HO CC LWB.
Pretty much all options except sunroof.
11% off List $86,720. Price $77,294. Price was invoice less the full holdback. There's a $500 rebate for Feb/Mar coming as well.

I have to correct the Dave Smith 17.55% discount. Seems they made a bad error. The corrected discount is 12.1%, still a good discount, but the 17.55% was fantastic.
If you can get better financing elsewhere then take their deal and immediately refinance, regardless of their “6 month requirement“. They can’t legally require you to not refinance.

Thanks. that's good to know.
That's a pretty good deal. Plus you got about 500 off of the standard delivery charge of 1600. I was able to get 15.7 % of msrp but I'm retired an have nothing but time to wear em down as I negotiated for 6 months. Also on your financing, they normally get their rebate between 60-90 days after sale so my salesman told me to make the payments for 3 months then I can pay it off. Don't want to pay any interest any longer than possible as that's just more money thrown away. you did good.
When you are doing that, make sure there is not early termination fees. Some loans may have it for a short period of time, or longer. Those fees could ruin the deal. When I bought my truck, I was going to pay for it outright, but they were going to give me $1,000 off with financing, and that if I paid it off when the first payment was due, I would lose $200 (admin stuff) of that $1000 deal total. Made sure no additional early termination fees, and did the deal. Soon as I was contacted by the loan company, I asked them if I needed to wait the 3 months the dealer said I had to, they said no, I could pay it off now, dealer got there money already. I paid it off less than a month after buying. End result was I got an additional $800 off the truck.

Msrp $75,000 and bought for $62,000 before TTL. Had to travel to Utah to find the exact truck I wanted, dealers here wouldn’t go out that far for a dealer trade. I will say California takes you over the coals when it comes to TTL.
