Wish I were ready to shop for that new RAM.

Trade in sucks so bad, that getting a new Red Eye would cost me as much as a new Ram!

I hate to think of how much money I could have saved by waiting on the purchase of my RE in 2018....

Missing out on the horsepower dollars alone, kills me...

No wonder we can buy a REWB for less than we paid for a '15 Hellcat! That is like a major penality to any trades or attempts to sell. Smells like they laid bovine excrement all over every current owner.

ABSOLUTELY!!!!!

Thanks for punctuating it for me. Hope my RE and my garage don't smell like bullshit when I get home tonight. But we have been shit on. Lots of old style new Corvettes sitting around for sale too I understand.

My lease is going back in a few months

Boy whom got screwed on this deal. 40 million trade commission penitently. A lot of cars. Man,, extra bottle of wine tonight salute you ass holes from Fiat. Thanks for the extra stroke. Why I waited 2 years and should have waited an other year. Pissed.

I sat here reading this thinking I'd seen it a week ago... went back and checked the published date and stopped panicking that I was having a Ground Hog Day moment.

Yeah. Vettes too. Only money. Don’t sweat it. Life is too short. Mash the gas... pull 1.15 geeeeeeeeeee’s in a corner.... you’ll forget it for a while.

 

[DGatzby]

I know @sad, glad I decided that this one is a keeper no matter what. I suppose when the upgraded Vettes appear in a year or two, no way we are going to get any "good deals". Your right, life is too short, I am definitely not sweating it, but they all have screwed a lot of people. Oh, well except the current buyers!

I remember the 2007/2008 days.. SRT's by the Tens at every dealer.... 300s, Chargers, Magnums..

But still mine was the ony Jeep SRT8 on the lot...

Canadians have been getting the FCA nuts for years on these things. We should have a cross-border pity party... we'll bring the beer.

Bought mine in 2018...power dollars sucked to see...but such is life.

 

[Hickster]

I am buying a Quizzzzzi board. God the crooked nesters you see every day. No wonder we don't have 5 cars and 3 trucks in the yard if these crooks keep getting away with it. Buy outs, sell outs, over produced, under produced, recalls. I am going to buy a Red Rider and get run over.

 

[OLDBAYCRAB]

Ahhh SH-T....

Now they are just rubbing it in... just got this in an email from the dealer I purchased my car from....

Trying to make me blow my top...

 

[Hickster]

Slap slap slap. I am about over the dealer's crap and the auction is worse. Going to Japan, purchase a car from Korea, and pick what is left up in Mexico. When the auto industry farts again, I hope it is crap instead.

You almost had me with the "we'll bring the beer.". Throw in a few strippers and I'm there.

My son worked as a detailer for a Dodge dealership a few years ago. They had a shitload of 200's they were forced to take. No idea how they got rid of them. That being said, unloading Rams, Challengers, and Chargers should be no problem.
