2024 Ram 1500 — 50,000-mile ownership report: what actually broke?

I would not stare at the monthly. I would not wire money until I've seen the 2024 Ram 1500 and the title situation in person or via a trusted PPI. Then the comparison gets honest. This is from a 2024 Ram 1500 in New Jersey with 19,500 miles. No need to make it theatrical. That's coming from doing this as an owner, not a shop. If the VIN lookup is clean I'm still doing PPI.

If I were shopping this, if they're pushing term length to shrink the payment, the 2024 Ram 1500 price probably got worse. Screenshot the worksheet if you can. Just my two cents from doing this recently. Doc fee is the line I'm watching.

OP update: I got two written quotes on the 2024 Ram 1500 and the out-the-door gap is bigger than the ads made it look. Wrote this up on my lunch break.

Update from me: I finally have sale price, fees, and trade on separate lines for the 2024 Ram 1500. Sleeping on the number either way.

I'd want competing paper, not competing stories. Ask for out-the-door on the 2024 Ram 1500 with fees, add-ons, and rate on separate lines. I'd rather lose the car than buy a foggy deal. Just my two cents from doing this recently. I'd sleep better after that step, even if it finds nothing. This is the version I'd tell a friend.
