Drive to H-town and bought a goat

Or a Ram... Or a Dodge. Not sure what they are called these days. This was a huge change for me, been a Ford guy for many years, but after the issues with the last 2 trucks I decided to give a Cummins a try. Hit the road at 630am and pulled into dealers lot at 11am. 30 minute test drive, 20 minutes of haggling, 30 minutes with finance and I was back in the road in the new truck.

She managed 23.6mpg driving 75-80, I could get use to that.

I like your choice of color!!!

Just need some Rock Star rims.

Nice truck bud!

Good looking truck BP..Take it by R noe and have them clean the windshield for ya.

I approve of this message.

Specs on the truck?

2014 Laramie with 15,015 miles. Black leather with heated/cooled seats, power seats, and gobs of power. It amazing how much better this drives over my 2008 Powerstroke

Nice ride!

My condolences.

Nice. I'm really thinking about the canyon brown/beige interior. Congrats.

And check the tire pressure...Great looking rig right there

Has anyone on the forum looked at or bought the 1/2 ton dodge with the diesel?

Those are sexy, I like looking at those but can't own anything other than silver. Way to easy to clean and very forgiving when scratched.

Thx guys, mama approved of this truck last night when she got to drive it. Although she was a little upset that I got it cheaper than her Ford Edge and it gets better mileage

Beautiful truck and glad you were able to find one.

I'm talking lighter color interior as I hate a black interior. Too hot and shows too much dirt. I had a black exterior 2000 Z71 and while it was beautiful when shined up, it was very hard to keep that way.

Both of our vehicles are currently silver (both 11 years old). However, I'm thinking of going white on my next truck.

What did you pay, if you don't mind me asking?

on my fifth Dodge, been good so far

Good Looking Truck

I've test driven one before. They are really nice. If you think though you're gonna be able to save money on one over the gas version think again. Maintenance is killer on that truck. I think Ram charges $190 for an oil change.

To the OP nice truck. That will likely be my next choice.

A buddy of mine traded his 7.3 Superduty for one. Fuel mileage is way below stated. Gets about the same as my power stroke.

I gotcha. I told myself this time time that I was going to buy something different then what I always buy, which is silver exterior and black leather, well that didn't work out I really wanted the Laramie Longhorn with saddle brown leather but wanted to get away from the center console because I needed more leg room due to a bad hip.

I'm currently deciding on the console thing myself. I think I really like the bench, same as what's in my 04 Cummins.

You paid less than $30k for a year old 2500 Laramie Cummins?

Congrats nice truck.

Awesome!

That is a pretty dang good deal. Especially with only 15k miles.



Walter

Congrats, nice truck

Thank you Tres

BP,that sure is a nice truck,congrats

Thanks John2.

And thanks to everybody else, in liking her. So far she's exceeded my expectations. I know it's only been 2 days but the fuel mileage is better than expected and the towing is great.

Yea, how'd you do that?

Somebody on my Randall Noe rant said I must be and a..hole to deal with. Maybe I am, but I got what I wanted for my trade, the interest rate and the term, and paid what I felt was a fair price. Maybe I am an a..hole to deal with

Lol. That's the best price I have ever heard of!

If you can find me another one like yours for 30k I will give you a 3k finders fee.

My wife said I should start a company finding and buying vehicles for people since I have a knack for it, that sound too much like work

Or just buy and sell. The cheapest 2014 Cummins quad on eBay right now is $39k and its a Tradesman.

I'd have to say I do like the color too.
