  1. Great chose Kalvin, kudos on the GMC, great rides. I bought my Silverado at John Bear on Upper James, probably you as well. Poor service, I have to warn you. 6 big screens, WIFI and 5 service reps and 1.5 hours for an oil change COME ON MAN!!! 20 or more bucks less at other garages on the mountain. You don't have to deal with GM services. The body shop manager had to actually get on the asphalt to look under my rig and he was dressed like he was going to a wedding not a body shop and complained he got dirty. COME ON MAN!!

    No John... Bad dealing with John Bear..over trade in on old truck... got my best deal at Queenston Chev on Rymal Rd great price on truck and best deal on my trade in ....

  3. Congrats! Best part is the free license that comes with the kid. Finally tax dollars going to good use!

  4. Thanks everyone for the great response... Got back up there this day and the nurses asked if l was moving in :dunno: why do you have extra space for me to be with my daughter and grandson :whistling::angel::D:w00t: sorry could not resist :rofl2:

  5. I have no regrets buying my Ram Diesel (forget the Eco part - that is just marketing...lol). It is the best riding vehicle (for its size) I have had, and is great for short runs, or for long distance driving. The low end grunt is awesome for towing - particularly pulling the boat of the water.

     

    A couple of years ago we did a Golf Trip down to Mrytle Beach - and took my Truck. The guys loved it so much, that the next year, there was a request that we take it again. On the 2nd Trip my Brother In-Law who was driving a Ford Eco-Lie-Boost (See what I did there) came with me. He loved it so much, that when we got back, he went to the Ram Dealer on a Tuesday, and had his new Truck on a Wednesday.

     

    The issue for him was Gas Mileage. The Ford was a great truck (I love the size of the interior) - but it drank fuel like crazy.

     

    I think for anyone looking for a Truck, forget Brand Loyalty (they are not loyal to you). Try them all (I checked out all the Trucks before I bought), and buy what is right for you.

    ​However I will buy another Ram Diesel - no question on that. I have had zero regret on it.

    What motor & transmission do you have

  7. Just a joke. I drove all makes and models in the oilfield and dodge would absolutely be my last choice.

     

    BUT.... We drove trucks hard. But still, dodges spent more time in the shop than not.

     

    If ya could, I'd look Toyota and chevy second

     

    Dodges look nice at least

     

    *Also, I haven't drove one in 5 years so maybe they have dramatically improved

    No Problem... LOL and thank you for your Honest Opinion :clapping::thumbsup_anim:

  8. Are you sure you can't do better overall getting a new Ram with all the deals they have now? Unless you are paying cash it would have to be almost a give away for me to look at a used Ram given the current deals available on new ones... As the monthly payments could easily be less for a new vehicle, with full warranty and hopefully a higher resale value in the future.

     

    If you can find the trim you want that is.

     

    Some dealerships are offering 30%+ off new. Up from 25% off in the last few months so the selection might be slim now.

     

    Check out redflagdeals.com for a thread about dealers who are willing to save you some money.

    depending on when l decide it might be new just un decided right now
