3/4 ton vs. 1 ton

To be honest, there's no way I'd spend $37k for a truck that's almost 4 years old. Especially for one that's a work truck package. You can buy a new truck all day long for not a lot more than that. Low to mid 40s will get you in one especially with it being the end of the year.

And what a dealer doesn't have, they can get from any other dealer as far away as you want to look. I have had vehicle brought in from out of state that met exactly what I wanted by the dealership I was talking with. I can test drive anything they already have, and have them get the one that more closely matches all the spec's I want. Even doing that, negotiation is still on the table.

Well.....I finally made a decision. I looked at lots of used trucks that were set up like I wanted, but ended up going with a new one. I'm getting a 9'4" CM bed put on it tomorrow. I hope I made the right decision.....

Just a little more info.... I had been looking at a few trucks like this one. 214 DODGE RAM 35 TRADESMAN 4X4 DAULLY DIESEL FLATBED at Texas Direct Auto

The deal I made on the new truck worked out to be about $7500 more than a 2014 model with 14,000 miles on it. Mine will have a little more chrome on it, and a backup camera, and a nicer radio. And I can set up the bed with tool boxes exactly how I want it.

What did you end up giving for her if you don't mind sharing?

Sticker price was just over 53,000. The price ended up at about 45,000 and they gave me 22,000 for my trade. Taxes and title were about 3000.

I ended up giving my truck which was paid off, and financing 26,000 for 48 months at 2.39%.

Nice looking truck and sounds like a very fair deal.
