Selling 2004.5 and buying new so a ?
In the process of selling our 2004.5 3500 4x4 SRW 6-speed and have found 2 different very possible trucks of what I want that being a 2018 Ram 2500 Mega cab, the dealer shows a discount of $9k and a $2,750 in rebates that I would quality for one is in transit and one is on the lot, just put my truck on CL and I do have the means for a down of $20 k without selling yet but always feel more comfortable knowing it is sold. So my question is since the "In-Transit" truck fits my criteria better what should i try and negotiate off of it and put a deposit down or do you think $9k plus rebates is good? Just not sure how much negotiation can be done without a truck sitting there.
Thanks,
Here is what I am selling, gonna be tough seeing it go after 14 years but need change and a AUTO!

Oh, and as with any Brand Spanking New vehicle you buy from anywhere but in Kalifornia, you will have to get it smogged before you will get a plate.

Thanks FMB, I have sent two co-workers to Dave Smith in years past and in fact have two trucks up there I am interested in that being they do have a couple 3500's up there in a MC with the Aisin and also the bucket seat option with full console which I like just wish they had the 20" wheel option but that being said I do plan on finding out the price off MSRP compared to the dealer down here that has pretty much what I want coming in. Would be nice to replace my SRW 3500 with another and the better Aisin trans. I am over here in Windsor about 2 hours from Sac and know the hassle that my co-workers got with smog and having to go weigh the truck total CAL BS for sure!

The 20's are going to yield a harsher ride and steep increase in price.
My Dave Smith truck in '06 just needed to be weighed which cost a big $10. At the time all Rams were 50 state certified but you still needed a California certification sticker. Moonbeam's regime sure makes things tougher. I don't know if Dave Smith gets California certified trucks in or if it's even possible. Enjoy that auto. I'm pretty sick of shifting too.
