It's a 2009 dodge ram 1500 big horn edition. 12k miles on it. Flawlessly clean and has never been in a wreck. Black with tan interior 4x4. Infinity sound system, back up camera, park assist, etc. Questions, comments, concerns? What do ya'll think of the newer body style? I think I am going to take off work an hour or so early and go talk to them and see what they will give me for my old jeep. If they dont come down a little then I'm going to keep looking

Sorry for the crappy pictures, it was about to rain and my camera on my phone is not very good=P~
 
jeeps are not cheap they hold there value just to let u know
if the jeeps paid for sell it yourself and buy the truck
 
Yeah it's exactly what I want I just got to see if they have any incentive, would love it if they have 0% financing, not so much worried about rebate. But we shall see.

Jeep is paid for but I would rather trade it in and take away a downpayment. It's only worth about 4 grand at best, I had someone key the passenger side 1/4 in a parking lot for no reason and there is some scuffs on the bumpers, (my sister and mom drove it while I was gone in the marines and it got in rougher shape) Basically the real reason I am going to trade it in is I am tired of sinking money into it, I just put front brakes on it a few months ago and it needs tires as well. Jeeps are great but the 4.0L has little problems such as oil sending unit flooding with oil and fouling out ($75 my cost) water pumps go out, etc. Don't get me wrong I could drive to Cali and back with it and wouldnt think twice of it but I really could better use a truck to haul stuff and tow things. In my mind it makes since but I see what your saying as well. I just dont think anyone would want to buy it in the condition it has gottin in since I came home, it also has almost 160k miles on it. haha
 
nice trucks drive good a great for a 1/2 ton too..
 
We traded in a '07 Liberty (problems with the power windows) on a 2010 regular cab short bed Ram SLT. We love the truck and got a great deal on it.
 
looks good! I'm already looking at some parts for it once I get it, haha I think I need to stop that for now! haha I just like the way they look! Even if I dont get this one I think I will find one soon!
 
im on my second hemi ram. i got tired of the gas mileage and bought a cheap liberty which isnt great on gas but much better than the truck. i made a cheap rack for the roof and i havent had to use the truck in months. if i sell my trailer, the truck is going too. tired of wasting my cash on gas.
 
i have an 09 crew cab they ride nice and are a great truck
 
Great Truck. My brother-in-law just bought a 2010 Ram c/c Laraedo 4X4. He had bought a Lincoln pick-up in 2009, he was on the fence about the Ram. He is an white-collar guy & owns mostley imports thru the years.
He really liked the looks of the Ram, so he stopped in & took one on a test drive.
He was hooked & traded in his 8 month old Lincoln p/u. It rides better, better fuel milage, & more comfort than the Lincoln. All this from a guy that is 55 years old & this is only his second pick-up.
 
Well the "toy" ota dealership decided they wanted 34 grand and not a penny less cuz that's what they had in it and I walked out the door. Supposidly, they gave a good customer that for the trade in on a tundra or w/e yada yada yada. I found this truck near Atlanta, Ga (bout hour and a half from me) exact same truck as that one but is 2010 and isnt 4 wheel drive, here's whats funny, the sticker is 26 on it as they are offering 8 k off the msrp trying to get rid of the older models before the 2011 get there. Going to look at it Saturday. I like this color combo a little better as well!
