    All this back order stuff will stop faster than it ramped up. I don’t know when but at some point there will be articles about canceled order by Megas and layoffs of factory workers.

    Looked at their new inventory, as you can see they only have three trucks left. At least two have driver lounges, that's an 6,000 (list) option, and it looks like they have the Elite ####pit (or at least some elements to it). These are AMAZING options, but these truck won't go below 150,000. However, if you were to talk to a sales associate, and they build you a truck, you could get one (depending on their margin and concession) for around 141,000 with similar specs.*

    If anyone is REALLY interested in buying a truck, here are some tools to help you:

    If you have great credit, and able to put down 20% on a new truck, then in my humble opinion, it's worth it. You can get Extended Warranties that'll cover anything you want on the truck. Our most popular one is a five year, 500,000 engine and after treatment warranty. However, there are TONS of options and other warranties.

    Just my 2 cents.

    * Extremely dependent on the dealer.

    The only new trucks available in the Chattanooga area right now are Macks. The Volvo dealer here told us it'd be 6-8 months for a Volvo but they get us all the Macks we could handle.

    The anthem looks like a cool truck. Something diffrent.. mp8 and m-drive pretty much same thing as d13 and I-shift.. from what I’ve read there is only a few tweaks between the 2... I’d sport one..
