Ram 2500 Dealer in Graham, Texas: Gas or Cummins Diesel

Buying | Graham, TX The choices you make when you order a Ram heavy duty, in the order that makes them easy. Heavy duty buyers tend to know exactly what they want and rarely find it parked in one spot. Cab, engine, axle ratio, trim and color add up to a lot of combinations, and the one in front of you might miss on a single detail. Ordering fixes that. Holiday Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram has a preorder form for exactly this, and this post explains the choices you will face and how to settle them before you talk to a sales specialist. Quick answer: If a Ram 2500 or 3500 on the lot misses on engine, axle, cab or trim, ask about ordering one. Submit the preorder form on the Holiday CDJR site and a sales specialist will contact you to start the process. Decide on the job first, then pick the build that matches. At a glance Start Preorder form on the website Next A sales specialist contacts you Decide Cab, engine, axle, trim, color In this post When does ordering beat buying off the lot? What choices do you make when you order? What should you know before you place an order? How does ordering compare with waiting for the right truck on the lot? What to bring when you start When does ordering beat buying off the lot? Ordering makes sense when a small difference matters a lot. A gooseneck hauler that needs a certain axle ratio, a crew cab that must have a specific bed length or a work truck that needs a bare bones trim are examples. Buying off the lot makes sense when a truck close to your list is available and you need it soon. Ordering takes patience, so be honest about your timeline. Ordering works well when you aren't under pressure. Think about the calendar too. Hay season, hunting season and a busy trailer schedule all make a bad time to be without a truck, so start the conversation before the busy stretch begins. Graham tip: If your old truck is limping along, deal with that first. What choices do you make when you order? The big ones are the engine, the cab and bed, the axle ratio, the trim and the package. After that come color, wheels and options like a fifth wheel prep package, running boards or a bed liner. Start with the work. Write down the heaviest trailer, the heaviest load and the miles you drive in a year. Those answers pick the engine and axle for you. Be careful with options that you can add later. Running boards, a bed liner and many Mopar accessories can be installed after delivery, while the engine, axle and cab can't be changed once the truck is built. 1 Job. List your heaviest trailer, load and yearly miles. 2 Build. Pick the engine, cab, bed and axle that match the job. 3 Trim. Choose the comfort level, then color and options. What should you know before you place an order? Ask how long the process typically takes and what changes between the order and the delivery. Ask what is required to start and what happens if you change your mind. Details like deposits and timing are decided between you and the sales team, so get them clear in writing. Ask about pricing and incentives as well. Offers change over time, so find out which ones apply to an ordered truck. Ask what to do with your current truck while you wait. Some people keep driving it, and some trade it at delivery. Either way, get the plan clear before the order goes in. Get it in writing: the build you chose, the timing the team gives you and what happens if the order changes. How does ordering compare with waiting for the right truck on the lot? Waiting means you take what shows up. Ordering means you choose, and you wait for it to be built. The first is faster if a good match appears, and the second is better if your needs are precise. You can do both at once. Keep watching the new inventory while the order is in process, and tell the sales team if a better match arrives. Some buyers also ask whether they can change the order after it is placed. The answer depends on where the truck is in the process, so ask early and ask the sales specialist directly. Ordering works well when you aren't under pressure. What to bring when you start Bring your numbers: trailer weight, hitch type, yearly miles and budget. If you have a trade, bring that too, and use the Value Your Trade form so the team has a place to start. Bring a list of questions about warranty, service and accessories. The parts department offers Mopar accessories you can add after delivery. Bring a second opinion if you can. A spouse, a partner in the business or a friend who tows the same trailer can catch a detail you missed.

Heavy Duty | Graham, TX Two off road Ram 2500 trims, and a plain way to choose before hunting season fills the calendar. Late summer in North Texas is when people start thinking about leases, feeders and the two track road that goes to a deer stand. A half ton gets you there on a good day. A heavy duty truck with real off road hardware gets you there on a bad one. Ram builds the Ram 2500 with a couple of trims aimed at that kind of use, the Rebel and the Power Wagon. Holiday Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram can show you both, and this post sorts out who each one is for. Quick answer: The Ram 2500 Power Wagon is the hardcore trail trim, with locking differentials, a disconnecting sway bar and a winch built for recovery. The Rebel gives a heavy duty truck a more off road look and feel with less specialized gear. Choose by how rough your roads really are. At a glance Power Wagon Trail focused, winch equipped Rebel Off road style, easier daily use Platform Ram 2500 heavy duty In this post What is the Ram 2500 Power Wagon built for? What does the Rebel add to a heavy duty truck? Which trim fits Graham roads and ranch land? What are the trade offs of an off road heavy duty? Making the call What is the Ram 2500 Power Wagon built for? The Power Wagon is a Ram 2500 set up as a working off road machine. It brings locking differentials, a disconnecting front sway bar, specialized suspension and a front winch, which together let it go places a standard 2500 would struggle. The winch is the practical part. Getting unstuck in a wet pasture or a washed out creek crossing by yourself is a different day with a winch than without one. Equipment varies by model year, so check the sticker on the truck in front of you. One more thing to consider is how often you'd use it. A winch you never touch is expensive weight, and a winch you need once can be worth the whole price. Graham tip: Ask to see the winch and the sway bar controls in person. A feature you can touch is easier to value. What does the Rebel add to a heavy duty truck? The Rebel is the trim for owners who want an off road attitude and a few trail upgrades without committing to the Power Wagon. It typically brings an aggressive appearance, tires with more bite and suspension tuned for rougher ground. It's easier to live with day to day. The ride is closer to a regular 2500, and it carries the same heavy duty frame under the skin. Inside, it's still a Ram. Seats, screens and driver assistance depend on the model year and the package, and the cab is as roomy as other 2500 crew cabs. You aren't giving up comfort to get the attitude. Which trim fits Graham roads and ranch land? Be honest about the road. Caliche two tracks, washboard gravel and dry creek crossings are fine for a Rebel in most weather. Deep mud, rocky draws and places where you could be stuck far from help are Power Wagon territory. If the truck also tows a large trailer every week, remember that off road gear changes the numbers. The tow and payload ratings on a Power Wagon aren't the same as on a standard 2500, so read the sticker. A Power Wagon fits you if You work remote ground, recover your own vehicle and want the most trail ready 2500 Ram builds. A Rebel fits you if You drive rough roads some of the time, tow some of the time and want a heavy duty truck that still feels comfortable. What are the trade offs of an off road heavy duty? Size is the big one. These trucks are long and wide, so tight lots and narrow gates take planning. Tires and suspension add noise and a firmer ride on the highway, and fuel economy won't impress anyone. Aftermarket tires and lifts also affect warranty and service conversations. Talk to the Holiday CDJR team before you modify anything. Think about insurance and parking too. A tall truck with a winch and a big tire can cost more to insure and may not fit under a covered spot at work. Ask your agent before you sign. Be honest about the road. Making the call Drive both over the same rough patch. If you can't feel the difference, the Rebel may be all you need. If you want the winch and the extra capability in your back pocket, the Power Wagon is the one to ask about. Then check the new vehicle inventory. Not every trim is on the lot at once, and a sales specialist can help you find or order the one you want. Bring your real gear to the lot. A recovery kit, a feeder bucket or the cooler you carry to the lease will show you how much room you have and where it all goes.

Can a Rebel tow? + Yes, but check the rating on the exact truck. Is the Rebel more comfortable day to day? + It's closer to a regular 2500, so many people find it easier to drive every day.

Service | Graham, TX A short checklist for keeping a Jeep Wrangler dependable through the first freeze of the year. North Texas falls into winter in a hurry. One week you're driving with the doors off, and the next a north wind drops the temperature thirty degrees overnight. A Jeep Wrangler handles a cold morning fine if the basics are ready. This post covers what a freeze does to a Wrangler, which items deserve a look in the last weeks of October and how Holiday Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Graham can help. Quick answer: Before the first freeze, test the battery, check tire pressure, look at fluids and wiper blades, and inspect the door and roof seals. Four wheel drive helps you go, not stop, so tires and speed matter on ice. The Express Lane at Holiday CDJR covers a battery test and a multipoint check. At a glance Battery Test before the first freeze Tires Pressure drops as it gets cold Seals Doors and roof panels keep the heater working In this post What does a cold snap do to a Wrangler? Should you test the battery before winter? How do tires and four wheel drive handle ice? Which fluids and wipers matter most? What if you still take the doors off in fall? What does a cold snap do to a Wrangler? Cold makes everything a little harder. A weak battery that started fine in September struggles at 20 degrees. Tire pressure falls, fluids get thicker and rubber seals stiffen. A Wrangler adds one more variable, its removable parts. Doors, panels and fabric roofs all seal against air, and a seal that has been stored or flexed all summer may leak when the wind turns north. Pack for it, too. A blanket, a flashlight, a phone charger and a small shovel live in the back of a smart Wrangler from November through February, and they take up almost no room. Graham tip: Put the roof panels or fabric roof back on before the first cold night, not after. Seals that sit sealed for a few days settle in better than ones forced into place on a freezing morning. Should you test the battery before winter? Yes. Batteries lose strength in the cold, and a battery that is a few years old can fail on the first freezing morning without warning. A test takes a few minutes. The Holiday CDJR Express Lane lists a battery test and replacement, with the note that replacement is for non warranty batteries. Pair it with an oil change and the whole thing is one stop. The service department can also look at the charging system. If the battery tests weak, replace it before the freeze, not after. A dead battery in a cold parking lot on a Monday morning is a worse bargain than a new one in October. Slow crank: the engine turns over slowly on a cold start. Dim lights at idle: a sign the battery or charging system is weak. How do tires and four wheel drive handle ice? Four wheel drive helps a Wrangler accelerate, but it doesn't help it stop or turn on ice. Tires and speed do that work. Drive slower than you think you need to and leave extra distance. Tire pressure drops as temperatures fall, so check it again when the cold arrives. Look at the tread as well. The Express Lane lists a tire wear and pressure check, which covers both. Four wheel drive helps a Wrangler accelerate, but it doesn't help it stop or turn on ice. Which fluids and wipers matter most? Check the washer fluid first, since road spray in cold weather can blind you in seconds. Use a fluid rated for freezing temperatures, and replace worn wiper blades before the first ice storm. Coolant protection matters too. The Express Lane lists coolant and fluid level checks, and a quick test shows whether the mix will survive a hard freeze. Heater and defroster performance also deserve a quick test. Run both on a cool evening and confirm warm air and a clear windshield, since you don't want to find a problem on the first freezing morning. What if you still take the doors off in fall? Plenty of Wrangler owners do, and October can be a great month for it. Just keep the doors and roof close and know how long it takes to put them back. A cold snap can arrive faster than the forecast says. If the Wrangler sits outside, consider a cover and check the interior for moisture after a wet cold spell. Water in the floor can freeze and cause more trouble. One last habit pays off. Walk around the Wrangler once a week in winter, looking at the tires, the lights and the wipers. Ninety seconds of looking prevents most of the surprises.

Tell the advisor you want a pre freeze check. Go to the Express Lane Battery and starting How long does a car battery last? + It varies with heat, use and the battery itself. Texas summers are hard on batteries, so test one that's a few years old before winter. Does the Express Lane test batteries? + Yes. It lists a battery test and replacement, with replacement for non warranty batteries. Why is my Wrangler slow to start when it's cold? + Cold weakens a battery and thickens oil. A battery test is the first step. Tires and traction Does cold weather lower tire pressure? + Yes. Pressure drops as the air cools, so check it when the weather changes. Is four wheel drive enough on ice? + It helps you go, not stop. Slow down and leave extra distance. Should I carry anything in the Wrangler for winter? + A blanket, a flashlight, water, a phone charger and gloves are smart. Add a small shovel if you drive back roads. Doors, roof and heat Can I leave the doors off in cold weather? + You can, but expect a cold ride. Put them on before the first freeze. How do I stop a roof panel from leaking? + Check the seals and the fit. A shop can look at it if the leak continues.
