I wouldn't bu


Just look at the invoice and find the ep price plus any rebates. Even then, they're overpriced.
Unfortunately...that money off invoice ...is not applicable to a lease....only a purchase

Not true.

A lower purchase price lowers payment along with residual value. Higher Residual = lower payments.

Lower Residual is better for you to purchase at lease end.

The Charger had a low Residual value because I insisted on 15K miles per year. It was initially just a daily driver.

Stelantis will NOT apply the discount to a lease...only an individual purchase...

You can always lease through a different company.

I leased the 2500 through allied because their lease deal was horrible.

Charger was through Chrysler and the lease deal had all the discounts in it.

Fuck Stellantis.

Last lease was 2021 for us. Not planning on leasing again. It was a very good write-off.

Sounds like the whole leasing game at Stellantis has turned to shit. I'm not planning on buying or leasing anything from them in the future.

It has...and the Chrysler Financial segment is @ odds with Stellantis in general...it's a real shit show...Even the dealers themselves are frustrated...I was one click away from a Tundra limited 1793 edition..till our materials handling people informed me I cant hang a plow on it...I will NEVER buy a Ford...so it was back to the Ram 1500...This non applicable discount has become an issue with me..this deal should have been done a wk. ago...:mad:

It's a shame you can't put a plow on the Tundra because we really like ours. My wife even likes to drive it.

How about a GMC with the 6.2?

I looked @ the Denali...gorgeous truck..not a fan of the Chestnut brown (only interior) and that big (Chrome) cheese grader grill...although it's still an option @ this point....usually rolling over to a new lease takes an hour or two at best...this thing is draggin on...and I'm not a patient person...

It's a damn shame that you can't even get the vehicle you want simply because the manufacturer is a greedy fuck.

I was happy with the Laramie trim on the 2 that I had. Neither 1 had air suspension.

I think air suspension is an option.
I'm a little different because I don't like the big screen. I prefer the buttons on the level 1 package.

The Tundra has the big screen and the buttons. Much easier to operate in my opinion.

Drives really well. We have the hybrid version. It generates its own electricity.
