And this, I believe, is why some folks are so "brand" loyal.

Having been in the business for many years, I firmly believe the "dealer" is more important than the "vehicle" to keeping a driver in the same brand year after year. (Think IH 6.0 Litre SD's)

Congrats on the new truck and its great you have a dealer you like, and they seem to like you too.. :C

Actually, they didn't start selling Dodge/Ram trucks until 2010... I purchased various Jeeps from them, Mazda, Misubishi and Chryslers over those 20 years, until 2010 when I bought the first Dodge truck I had EVER owned.. Was a Chevy truck guy from 1975 thru 2010, last 4 being D/A's... Still love Chevys and would own them again, just thought I'd try something different with the Dodge/Ram Cummings and liked them... Haven't owned a Ram truck long enough to be fan loyal:)

Yeah, they do love me there and gave me a heck of a deal in return :)

Congrats. I'm on my fourth retirement truck. What that means is I bought the truck while my main vocation is retirement. It has nothing to do with it being my last truck. If I could just get my wife to understand that concept all would be good.

Congrats on the NEW truck!!!! Ha ha ha I wish I could buy as often as you do. You already know how nice the RAM is but you'll find out just nice that rear air is soon!

As stated earlier by the infamous Cummins 12V98 "you will really love the factory rear air ride". No sag, smooth ride, what's not to like about that right from the factory.

Good Luck.

Did the floor mats need washing in the 13? LOL :B

Congratulations; the monotone white will look fantastic with the chrome grille and bumpers. It is the color I wanted as well but I couldn't turn down the deal I got on mine. I will be keeping my 13 for a long time yet; hopefully!

Can't wait to see the pics.

I really liked the looks of the Pearl white, slightly different than the bright white, and with the chrome...I also have the front chrome Westin HDX brush guard they'll swap out for me...and they'll put my Companion hitch in the new truck.

"Brush Guard", watch out for it screwing up the front park sense!!!!! I would leave it on the old truck!!! Chris

First of all thank you for your service. And I would suggest whoever buys your old truck is going to get one heckuva nice truck. Wish you were closer I would look into it personally.

Congrats Jim. I'm jealous.
