2023 Gladiator Rubicon 3.0
Vlad is a white/black Rubicon 3.0 with lots of option packages and dealer installed tint and bedliner + all the associated dealer fees. Totally, completely overpriced! Knew a young man who moved to this dealer from another dealer - previous Ram purchases. Texted him and told him I was interested. The next work day he grabbed the keys, I went down made me a smoking deal. No trade, no finance. To the point sale and gone in 2 hours - good 2-way relationships do pay off.. Dealer ate the dealer installed items, threw a few $ in deal and Stelantis put enough $$$ in to make it a smoking deal. Like all other vehicles past and present, I will service properly, warm-up to operating temp (oil) and never abuse it and we should be good. From experiences past, this could be a great experience or a lemon law suit. Regards.

I quoted your last sentence because you seem to imply you are expecting one of two things...a great experience or a lemon law suit. Are you that pessimistic in everything? I was just curious why you are purchasing something fully expecting a possible bad experience, why purchase it?

What if you just have a good experience?
What if you lemon law it and they buy it back per the law?

OK - lot's of assumptions. 62 yo car dude - bought or leased 2 new vehicles every 3 years since 1988 (sometimes more, ie: lemon law) - sorry, math. Only lease the "flagship" vehicles but purchase all else. I many times sell my vehicles to F & F and those in the know - my recent 22 Ram 1500 Limited with 6K went to my BiL for example. Abuse, imo is cold oil and high revs/loads - think BMW S54 spun rods bearings. Lastly, pure experience of being a car guy and no other agenda or doom. Cheers.
