Did you think Tommey would answer after all he sell them

Ive talked to some guys that really get bent on their new trucks. I paid $30,700 for a 04. 5 600 6spd, prem cloth , elec, am/fm/cd, rear slide window, yada yada yada.



My buddy wen to Corpus and paid $30,200 and thought he put one over on me. His turned out to be a 03 / 555.

 

[TowRig]

I thought the 3500 came standard with the Cummins and an option on the 2500? Your invoice shows a 3500 with a charge for a Cummins, is that correct?

 

[Texasrattler]

It must be the 10 gallons of fuel (YGM).

[DocDetonancour]

jnelson, he did! Ford anounced the "employee" deal also. Doc

 

[Yo Hoot]

Don't forget they are going to offer big discounts. Raise the prices before you offer price breaks... isn't the the American way?



I think they said they are offering employee prices to all soon.

Sorry about that, I thought I answered everyones ?'s, which one did I miss?

 

[Tim]

No thanks, I'll pay the extra to drive a cummins... .

You're not driving a Cummins. You're driving a Dodge.

Only short bed 3500's are standard with the cummins, the LB srw,drw, and the 2500's have the option of getting the hemi or cummins



(wow, a qc 4x4 dually hemi, yuck!)

OK, so your invoice example as a short bed would be 5,555. 00 (MSRP) cheaper?

Come to CA. I think they sell all the dually HEMIs here (to Raider fans... :-laf )

Crazy huh? I Never thought I'd see a $51k ram

I got the same feeling back in 1971 when I went to the Chevy dealership with Pop to buy his new truck. There was a new Corvette on the showroom floor with a $6000. 00 dollar window sticker on it. That seemed like all the money in the world at the time to me. :-laf Anyway Pop got his truck for $2800. 00

Tommy,



What are the chances of still finding a new truck with the nv5600 transmission??

 

[Carlsummers]

It might be time to make the move to a Chevy. It would be a lot cheeper and it has a Allison Trans.

I'd rather have the 48re w/Cummins.

 

[RGardner]

I am still waiting to see just what the employee pricing discount means. Sure seems to have worked for GM.

 

[Tomeygun]

You would think, But no, the cost of the engine is rolled in to the starting price - So the base price would be like 42k and some change on a Short 3500

 

[Tomeygun]

OHH and by the way, rebates are out and the diesel DO qualify for the EP plus program. and have a $1500 rebate... (lost $500, but picked up like $1000 discount)



So the deals are for sure better now... for those that did not already have EP purcahse ability

 

[Coyote556]

Tommy,



You think there are any 05's left with the nv5600 and not the g56?

 

[KNeeley]

I just got a 05 with the NV 5600 last week. There is a boat load of them still left here.

 

[Tomeygun]

Tommy,



You think there are any 05's left with the nv5600 and not the g56?

I would say about 35 within 150 miles of me... probably more If I looked



So yes, all we need :-laf
