20 MPG! HIGHWAY......
Filling it is not going to be cheap, BUT if thats not a concern then I say get it, cause there is no sense in making a car payment on a car you dont like.
I'm in the market as well. I'm currently looking at the R/T model with plans of lowering it. I really want to locate an SRT-10 model but that won't be practical due to the amount of driving I do, at least 30,000 miles per year. You have my vote 100% on this one :).
*Edit - Just built an Express model with similar options but $5,000 less. If I plan to lower the truck then I don't need to worry about the R/T suspension since most of it will be removed. I need to check into this, thanks BobbyG!
I have a 2010 Laramie. I love it!
Yeah I would love to have the R/T version but the price tag is a little too much for me. The Express model does look very similar to the R/T model minus the 22" Wheels, Fake Hood Scoops, Sport Tuned Suspension and the color matched side Mirrors. I would be happy with the 20" wheels and the same Hemi motor for a much cheaper payment.
I don't know why I put BobbyG, sorry about that. For basically $5k less you can have a very similar truck. I've been going back and forth and it's just not worth it for the extra money. What do you plan to do with your Colorado? Is it auto or 5 speed? Which motor?
My husband has the 08 and loves it. I like the looks of the chrome grill, but this looks quite cool.
Yeah I went and looked at the R/T model last night while the dealership was closed. Wow what a beautiful looking truck but they wanted $33K for it. I think the Express model is very nice looking for around $23K I like the fact that it is a very simple truck with a lot of power. I just want to trade the Colorado in towards the new truck. The Colorado had the Inline 5 motor Automatic and it has 130k miles.
