Found a 2007 with 29k miles listed for $22k. I kinda like this one too:

The newest bod style 09, 10 and 11 are actually doing fairly decent on fuel economy. Most guys seem to average 18-20ish with them. My 08 Hemi averaged 15ish which from what I gather from other guys is about right for those trucks. I wouldn't hesitate to get one if it's what you want. Only reason I'm not driving one is they don't look right in a regular cab long bed. I love the looks of the 09+ trucks.

Can't you get a new 2010 for that much with the discounts going on right now?

I would think so. The one I originally posted is a 2010 ST QC 4x4 Hemi and it stickers at $33,260. I would bet that I can get them to around $26k on it. The 2009 is a fully loaded SLT which has some nice additional features on it, but also has the 26k miles. I drove the 2009 I posted, and it is what got me started wanting one bad. I should know to stay out of the dealership lots! I went in looking for something to commute in, came out wanting a new fullsize which is even less practical as a commuter, but meets my other needs much better than what I have.
I am just kind of internet shopping right now, but plan to make a trip to the dealership that has the new 2010 soon.
The 2007 I posted is sold, I called and asked this morning. Too bad because I really like the looks of that truck, although I like the new body style MUCH better.
I have a 2010 with the Hemi. It averages 22/23 mpg highway - with ODI & cruise control engaged. Around town, if we can stay out of the gas pedal, 15/16 mpg's.
My 2007 FX4..... it should be ashamed of itself!! 12 mpg's highway and 7/8 mpg's around town
The interior on the 2010 Ram's is very well laid out. Not a bunch of useless buttons, like on most new trucks.
As for the ride. It is awesome. MUCH different suspension with the springs and the ride is like a caddy's ride.
I would say get yourself a new one! Get all the discounts you can get. If you still don't like their price, walk away. If they want to rid themselves of a 2010, they will
They did with mine. Bought it 12/11/09. Got one heck of a price on it. It just turned 3900 miles

The 2010 I am interested in is an ST package, which is probably a little harder to sell than the loaded SLT models. I really like this style much better than the older ones, and although the ST doesn't have some of the nice features of the higher models, I think it would suit my needs fine. Hopefully they will deal on it.
I am glad to hear you are able to get 20+ mpg on the hwy Shanin. That was one of my big concerns with the length of my commute, so hearing it is possible is good. I have generally been able to average a little higher than what the window stickers predict, so I would hope the Ram would be the same.

Shanin, what gears does yours have in it? The one I am looking at has 3.92 LS. BTW, your Ram is definitely one of my favorite trucks on this site!
