soo i did a thing...

I ordered a 2019 Ram 1500, Laramie, crew cab, short bed, sport package, with 22"s. white on black.

pretty much have my silverado for just under 4 years, got bored, owe some money on it still, trading it in , leasing a new ram 1500.

I actually was going to lease the new denali 1500 but, the prices are crazy , their money factor is terrible i got them down to 700 from 980 a month but thats 13% off MSRP and pretty much cant get them any lower, so figured I would try a ram.

its only a lease, under warranty and will dump it before it expires.

Only other mopar I ever had was a viper SRT10. most of my cars have been GM or BMW or Infiniti.

10-12 week wait for build out, but dont wanna settle for a color i dont like or options i dont need (that raise the price)

i have 0 , and i mean 0 patience sooo this shall be interesting. waited 8 weeks for my 2014 stingray and i was freaking out and 6 months for an m3 I almost had an actual breakdown. lol

na didnt get the e-torque , did get the 5.7 obvi lol I dont trust any of that stuff... im a mechanic, I like regular functioning engines, anything involving more than 12v i dislike lol , im anti electric car, anti hybrid.

the truth is with proper build a car can get killer gas mileage as a regualr gas, v8 engine, my stingray was gettign 30+mpg (before I procharged it)

Cool. Not a huge ram fan but they redid them nicely and they drive real nice. Bigger back seats comparable to the tundra and dodge practically gives them away.

they do drive real nice, drive them at my shop all the time, they have 5 link rear suspension.

ill be honest, its a lease so IDC ill try it i like it i keep it , dont like it lease swap it.

the only turn off is that stupid knob shifter but there is nothing you can do about it. not trying to pay an extra 200-300 a month to lease a new denali so i can have a column shifter
