Signed! - 2019 RAM 1500 Bighorn $231/mo. 24m/10k. 985 Total OOP

Pulled the trigger on a new RAM truck. Originally looking at the toyota truck deals. Found a good deal on RAM and liked the Uconnect/Apple CarPlay and redesign.

Props to leasehacker community for all the knowledge and tips!

Now I need a sweet luxury lease deal :grinning:

That’s how you hack! Good work.

Now imagine the poor bastard purchasing and paying $600-700/mo for this…

Thanks! That’s what the finance guy said - you’d be crazy to buy.

He added that now a days they make their big profit from monthly manufacturer quota incentives.

Did you go through FCA? Also, I assume you were able to get the 15-20% off manufacturer rebate on top of dealer discount?

Details…Had to fudge some stuff on the calc to get the 231 payment with only 985 OOP.

It’s all in his calculator link. 12% off dealer discount and another $7450 in incentives(16%).

With a residual of 61% and 28% off(discount+incentive) that’s only 11% depreciation.

Sweet hack OP!

29.99 paid proceeds? Not sure where that came from but I had no other trade and didn’t give them $30 lol…

It is through FCA

Great deal. Enjoy the truck. What market and can you break down the incentives? [When I was hacking trucks last fall my incentives were always crap.]

Midwest - Ohio. I don’t have a detailed breakdown of the incentives other than there were manufacturer rebates. I did give them proof of Honda lease for conquest. I started with a competitor ad for a base Ram 1500 and asked different dealers to beat price. I added an option package and went with lowest price. Some dealers were not willing to entertain discussion on ~ $200 / month RAM truck deal over phone/email.

Great deal! Would be interesting to know the breakdown of incentives.

Great job Meximoney! That’s a nice hack! A 0.68% deal by my calcs.

Now I want that incentives. I can’t find that incentives here is California. Congrats

I thought the 15 to 20% off was a nationwide promo and the rest is up to the dealer.

I wonder what would happen if FCA just priced their cars what they’re actually worth.

All these insane incentives seem to do is allow dealers a chance at playing keep-away with the hood cash on the off chance you get a sticker sucker on the lot…well that or get people you wouldn’t lend a popsicle to approved for a new car…

15-20% is only for purchase not when you lease it. @Electric FCA=Kohl’s lol

Purchase an FCA product. Right. :sunny:

I suppose if I wanted a project car that was fairly easy to mod to hoon around in i’d be looking at a Hemi Magnum to throw a blower on, heheh. Glad those days are past me!

What dealership? I’m in ohio and have fca ep.

You win OP! I got a similar 12% discount on my black appearance package level 2 Big Horn, but I was only able to get $3750 in rebates. My Leasehackr score was still around 11 or 12, so I am happy but you should be charged with grand theft auto lol
