Your looking at MSRP prices. No one pays that. a couple of months ago I test drove a 2016 1500 4x4 with the new eco diesel. MSRP was 47,560.00. I got it down to 38,000.00 plus tax. I still couldn't pull the trigger. Decided to keep my old 2007 2500 4x4 CTD quad cab with 243,000 miles. Still runs like a top!
