Anyone trade in a 2018 towards their new 2019?

[RamGuy84]

Just wondering what people have been getting on trade in for their 2018s....thanks

Mine has 6000 miles on it, Laramie, cummins, sport, fully loaded and the best I can get is 53k on trade because there are so many new ones still out there on lots heavily discounted.

I did. I traded in a 2018 RAM 3500 SRW Crew Cab 6'4" bed (Laramie Longhorn) and HO Cummins with Aisin and aftermarket 4.10 gears for a 2019 3500 HO Cummins Laramie Longhorn. Mine had 15k miles on it (list price of 74,500). I paid $64k for it and received 54k in trade.

what did you end up paying for the 2019 then?
My 2018 has an MSRP of 71,330, I paid 59k for it.

Mine listed for $83,415 and I paid $77k for it. Since they had to transfer it from a different dealership 250 miles away they were not willing to deal like they would have with one on their lot. They had a 2019 Laramie Dually that listed for $86k and I could have gotten it for $75k with the same trade, but my wife would not go for the dually.

That's unfortunate.

That's OK, I got the truck I wanted and if I paid a little extra I don't mind. I believe every good business should make a profit - so that they can stay in business.
