I bought my 2020 Limited Fully Loaded in November 2020 for 63k, 2021 was when the car market went insane. The EXACT same optioned truck today is 87k. A 38% increase in 3 years is absolutely stupid.
I bought a 2018 1500 ltz 4x4 brand new, it was under $50k. Its got a 6.2l double cab regular bed. Just rolled 100k miles. Only things the truck doesn't have is a sun roof and adaptive cruise. Pretty much fully loaded.

There are a lot of pluses to this truck. 1) better ride because the easy to clean steel wheels, ride comfort from 18in wheels mean more sidewall for absorption. Tough basic seats, you don't need all that luxury garbage to just tack on price. Less things to go wrong. Price is just stupid maybe $31k.
