2016 models on dealer lot's in Texas

[Deleted member 995608]

Searching the web, I found some 2016's 2500's. All I saw were Tradesman models and I didn't see any changes to the interior or exterior. Maybe the rumors about possible minor upgrades are for models above the Tradesman?

Are you sure they weren't marked "This Vehicle Is In Transit" ??? The only 16's I see on local dealer lots near me are Jeep Cherokees.

I saw two '16s this morning at the local dealer. Both were Big Horn's.

Vin and window sticker verified "2016". I checked. Forum XXX has a pretty good list of guys who costumed ordered 2016's of various size trucks and are expecting delivery this week or next week.

The train that brings these trucks up from the assembly line in Mexico run right through Texas state. I started searching Texas dealers and sure enough, a few 2016 models are sitting there.

Can you verify any changes when you get the chance? Models above the Tradesmen are rumored to get new wheels, possible center console and newly designed fold flat rear seats;not fold up like we're used to.

The 2018's will be out before you decide on what to buy!!!

Off the top of my head, all I really remember is they had the 8.4 screen and what appeared to be an all one color bottom of the line interior. Maybe I expected too much, but I really wasn't impressed.

I have a 2016 on order. Hopefully this means it might be showing up soon!!

Our local dealer has a '16 Ram 3500 Ram Laramie CTD dually in transit. (No, it isn't mine since it isn't equipped the way I would order my truck.) Several '16 Ram 2500 CTD Tradesman models have already arrived.

Do you have one of these waiting to drop in at home?

 

[BaldwinScott]

I am going to order a Curt Q24 tomorrow for the new truck.

I am going to order a Curt Q24 tomorrow for the new truck.

I guess I would ask why? Have you compared to a B&W?

 

[BaldwinScott]

Yes I have. I can get the Curt for a few dollars less, That makes the wife Very happy! I have been talking with a lot of folks who own both and the Curt got higher marks. I am sure that would be a debate that would go on forever!!

 

[Cummins12V98]

Well it's your money for sure but Im have to say I have NEVER heard anyone say Curt is better then B&W. I should have said compared side by side.

No matter, good luck with what you buy.

Picked up my new 2016 Ram yesterday and all I can say is......WOW!! This truck does everything except serve you coffee and donuts on the hour and it might even do that too!! Still reading the manual and figuring everything out. Rides like a dream and can't wait to try pulling my 5th wheel with it!!

I heard/read the 2016 Laramie has a fold flat back seat......any truth to that?

The rear seat is the same as the previous years. They are still researching this for future changes.
