thinkin of trading in my leased Jeep Rubicon 06' for a Nitro RT. the dealer let me have it for the weekend while they work the financial aspects to see the best deal is for me. it's a white rt loaded. my question is what are the best OTD prices some of you got? the sticker on it is $34K so i am just tryin to make sure i dont get burnt.

thanks much guys and so far i have put 50 miles on her and i like it a lot.

Welcome!

Good to have you join, The R/T is a real nice ride I wish I could have gotten one. I am sure someone will have some ideas for you on the financial end, Good Luck with a deal , take it out and have fun over the weekend! :Racing:

 

[sloppyjoe]

i will. i just am doing my best to not rack up the miles if i decide to not bite on the deal. it will be a bump in a monthly payment not to mention a stretch to put a down payment down at this moment in time. i got to have something with more room and better mileage. i drove on the highway last night with the cruise set at 60mph and was averaging 25-27mpg. much better then the 15mpg i see in the jeep and that is cruise set at 55mph and 12mpg i see in the city:shakehead:

sloppyjoe, to get invoice price for your R/T, go to Kelly Blue Book and enter the options of the vehicle that you are driving. This is kbb dot com. The retail price should match the window price sticker when you are done.

or you can also go to edmunds dot com and find the "true market value" or in other words the average price people are paying for it. i'm so glad we had a purchase plan thru work cause the true market value isnt that much less than the msrp. it saved me almost 3 grand. most dealers arent going down much on the nitro being that its the first model year.

R/T is nice but at what cost? What do you need?

HI , I have the R/T 2wd and drive it very conservatively and 20 mpg is all you are gonna get. The thing is made for towing a boat or something.
I really like the truck, but don't expect more than 20.
I would stay with what you have. You sound like you are going to make a lateral move for a big cash layout.

The Nitro R/T Is Too Exciting to Drive Conservatively

HI , I have the R/T 2wd and drive it very conservatively and 20 mpg is all you are gonna get.

I disagree. I have a 4-wheel-drive R/T and have been averaging 18.2 city and 21.9 highway. This is with 500 miles on the vehicle. Mileage has increased since it was new and continues to increase. On the highway, I set the cruise control at 65 mph. I do not drive particularly conservatively, however. The Nitro R/T is simply too exciting to drive conservatively!

i need a vehicle that will tow, i have to have more room. a small jeep simply does not have that. i have a small dog that goes everywhere with me and his crate takes up the entire rear of the jeep w/ the rear seat folded down. i looked into many of the small wagons on the market like the subarus and audi's but they simply were not big enough.

if we can agree on a deal that is not too much of a beating i can see myself being very happy in the long term with the nitro. as long as the math allows for it.

I don't know what the R/Ts go for, but I'll tell ya this, My R/T Charger didn't even cost me that much. And it had only 80 miles on it.

another idea is go to ************. they will show you the true market value AND what others in your area are paying.

oops it blanked it out, that was go to edmunds dot com
