Smile Ordered 2 08's

well i pulled the trigger yesterday. i ordered myself a "Laramie" white with tan interior 2500 mega cab with the 6.7l. i loaded it up to the gills. also ordered a Laramie white with tan quad cab with the 6.7l for our company superintendent. i test drove the 6.7l at least 5 times. each time i walk away amazed at the power and how quiet the engine is. dealer said about 6-8 weeks for delivery. pretty good deal also. 500 over dealer invoice minus the dealer/manufacturer rebate at the time of delivery. never thought i would say this........... goodbye GMC hello Dodge!

It's not too late to change'em up to a 3500 SRW. They certainly tow better with the additional spring packs in the rear.

have to agree. If i could have found a 3500 SRW i def would have bought it as that is what i was looking for. BUT if you choose not to, just drop some fireston airbags on that puppy and she will be good to go. That is my plan.

Eitherway you will be more than happy with your purchase. I know i am

I just bought two '08 3500 CTD's for me and my business partner. The hardest thing in the world is waiting for them to arrive. I don't know how many more sleepless nights I can handle. It's only been two days and it's already killing me. I'm really looking forward to aftermarket parts and mods.

OK guys .....your hired!!! our company superintendent is actually my uncle.
he has been with us for at least 25 years. i couldn't imagine the company without him. he's forgotten more than i know about the quarry,coal, and construction business. a truly irreplaceable individual.

i am also excited and oddly impatient about these new trucks. they can't arrive quick enough! my older brother purchased a diesel superduty 3500 today. obviously a man who hasn't seen the light!

the only thing i'm hoping for is that Dodge has the emissions figured out before they put these trucks together.
