Looking for a lightly optioned 801A crew cab at or very close to MSRP. Most I'm finding on dealer lots are hard loaded to the gills.

I really don't care about most of the other options. As for colors, I think I'm pretty set by now on lightning blue, but might consider others (except for white).

Starting to see these things pile up on lots. Hell, YouTube had about 15 new posts just yesterday alone from dealers with trucks. So, it looks like supply is starting to show up.

If you know of something, I'll shoot you a finders fee of a couple hundred bucks if I get the truck.

PM me if you know of something.

Thanks in advance,

Scott.

What happened Scott? Why the change of heart? You seemed pretty principled just a few days ago! :biggrin:

Did you call on these ones? Always worth a call.

I've called quite a few, but will go through that list again and double check that I'm not missing anyone. Thank you.

No change of heart. I'm still not willing to pay $5k or $10k ADM. If I can get something very close to MSRP (i.e. within $500), then I may bite if it has what I'm looking for. Anything more than that and it's worth it for me to wait.

Are you looking for one that's already on the lot or are you willing to wait on a build?
