Stellantis 1st Q Sales

[Boris]

I would have to go with the Warlock w 6'4" bed and pretty much loaded for about $61k since you can not get a regular cab with the 6'4" bed anymore

I currently have a 2013 Ram 1500 Express regular cab 6'4" bed with 5.7L 4X4 that has 184,000 miles that I bought new. Which is still great but my son just hit a "deer" with it the other night. So upset, I love my truck and now it's been violated

I traded my 13 Express for the TRX
I regret that one.

Best fucking truck I've ever owned. 130k on the clock at the time

So they want 10k over msrp but going to knock off $1750, sounds like a deal

Last summer, I was toying with the idea (and even said as much on the other site) of getting a Jailbreak with no options because you couldn't get a redeye wb or super stock after March.

Found one dealer who would take the affiliates 1% under invoice deal but had no allocations.
Called another dealer up the road, they wanted 10k markup on the JB. I told them I'd pay it but they are adding it to the 1% under price. They passed. The next week, Dodge yanked the allocations and they didn't get the car.

Same dealer now has a 23 RE WB JB for about 3k over sticker that someone walked on. I called and asked about ordering and they want you to make an offer on their last allocations. That has to be some terrible sales tactics.

It's getting to the point where buying a new car is insane.

Well, I'll be paying below MSRP, but some money off still doesn't hurt.

You may be but most will be more then sticker

 

[Jimmy N.]

That's their problem, isn't it?

Sometimes I feel sorry for the dealers. Very soon they will have nothing that anyone wants to buy.

That doesn't give them the right to try and rip off anyone who walks through the door.
It's very insulting and I won't tolerate it.

 

[jroyk]

Depends on the dealer. Mine is pretty good. No major complaints. I'm treated well.

Some of the ones I've bought from in the past have really changed. They’ve picked up a FU attitude.

I have 184,500 on mine now and have only changed water pump and heater core as non standard maintenance items. Best truck I've ever had and I love my Regular cab Express although my son just hit a pole with it and now I need a new grill, hood and bumper cover! Just ordered a grill assembly I found in Montana today🤬. He’s paying for all the repairs and I can still drive it but man it chaps my ass that it got wrecked after 10 years of no issues!

I have purchased two cars in the last year, Cadillac and Challenger Redeye. I do not feel sorry for the dealers, as they have been royal dirt bags. Demon ADM and thousands over on Hellcats, especially the Redeye! I was one of lucky few, MSRP. When the crazies, try to force us to buy electric, we will keep our ICE vehicles. The dealers will get a dose of their own medicine. I won't feel sorry for them...

If its a gasser, no one may be able to order it. GM dealers seem to be having difficulties ordering anything with a 6.2L

Saving them for the high profit vehicles.

I don't blame dealers for being in the situation driven by the factory. Ford did the same crap with GT500's. The dealer making bank of the one Demon is the same one selling trucks with big discounts in a race to the bottom. I am glad the big discounts on trucks are back.

pro trim 3500 Reg cab dually

Updated exterior. Older style interior.
Low options 54k msrp.

dealers can’t get allocations for lower trims.
Parts going for higher trim levels.

What do they not want to order.

One dealer told me
That the truck I want to build
They would not even order for their lot.

They said they would rather order and use that slot for a Denali or something.
