    Default Upgraded today to a 2015 RT-S

    We'd been planning to buy a 2016 in the spring, but Clem's had a nice red 2015 RT-S, priced to move out, so we picked her up today. Got a trailer too, so we can start taking the long hauls. We traded in our first Spyder, a 2011 RT-S with a few added bells and whistles. Now we need to add said bells and whistles again on the new ride, lol.

    What did you get for your trade in 2011? I'm seriously considering a Spyder but I want to know if a new one will hold its value if things don't work out. Or if a used one is a better way to go.

    Congrats on the new 2015! I'm still getting used to the different handling compared to my 2010 RT. I did upgrade to Ron's sway bar and installed a K&N air filter I got from Baja Ron.
    The trailer hitch and round trailer module was transferred over from my 2010 RT. All is good now.

    Thank you!

    And... we have the trailer hitch installed now, and we've brought home our Freedom Trailer, which we've named Lemming.
