- The Ram Classic is an interesting pickup truck strategy that few people are talking about. Ram decided to continue building its last generation half-ton alongside its latest generation, creating the Ram Classic. Is this the smartest strategy for Ram? And is the Ram Classic the best cheap truck on the market? We find out.

Stephen and Howard, Andre is my favourite presenter on TFL. You should offer him a job as Truck King's official foreign correspondent 😁
I like Andre, he is the only watchable person on TFL. Ever since Tommy started there TFL went down the hole.
@@jlen82 I agree that Andre's great. But Tommy's fun to watch too. He brings youthful energy to the show as he discovers vehicles that I experienced back in my youth 50+ years ago.
@@sail72 Agreed. Tommy’s come a long way in a short time.
I recently bought a 2022 classic. It's a crew cab with a V8, side steps, 8 inch screen, steel bumpers, 20 inch rims, and heated seats and steering wheel. I added a leveling kit, larger Duratracs, and an aftermarket exhaust. Best bang for the buck truck you can get right now.
May I know how much you paid for the truck ?
@@zappurple8201 It was 50k Canadian after the rebates they had going on Rams. Not cheap by any means, but a lot better than the 65-70K alot of other trucks are going for now.
@@jcameron7453 so it’s 56k with taxes and on top whatever interest if you live in Ontario it’s prolly Peel Chrysler ? 3.49% interest rates on 6-7 years if I’m correct?
@@jcameron7453 thanks for the reply you are helping another potentially a ram owner
Honestly, people are sick of the ridiculous prices. The classic is a great value.
Love my 2020 Ram 1500 Classic Quad Cab Tradesman 5.7 Hemi, 2wd, 3.21 rear axle. Pulls our 7,500 lb trailer well, very smooth 8 speed transmission, easy to mod and maintain, and gets 23-25 mpg hwy cruising at 70 mph with mods on eco88. Was $37k msrp, got it for $34k and just finished paying it. No factory defects and one recall for the side mirror in 2 years of ownership.
23-25 mpg ? My 21 5.7 4wd 3.92 axle gets 17 city and hwy.
@@tumbleweedking5668 I love “UA-cam specs” that number is obviously silly
@@tumbleweedking5668 the 3.92 rear diff surely doesn’t help with fuel economy but it must be a hoot to drive around with that V8
@@tumbleweedking5668mine’s 2wd with the 3.21 with a few mods. Does well with eco88. It’s on TFL’s website if you want to check it out.
@@pryme2013 it’s on TFL’s website if you want to check it out. May sound silly, but it’s easy on my wallet.
Gents, thank you! We all can’t afford or want to spend 70k on a truck. Videos of trucks with all the bells and whistles are great but I don’t pay a lot of attention because that’s not in my budget range.
Just purchased a 23 Warlock 4x4 5.7 hemi. Better get one while you can. With 4 cyl Silverado and electric f 150s and new body style rams with etorque only ( with a hemi) the writing is on the wall for v8 powered trucks. Traveled 1400 miles round trip to get one equipped the way I wanted. Over 18mpg 1st tank. Absolutely love the truck. I own 2 other ram 1500s as well.
Thats the model I will be looking for. I have a 2018 Ram classic.
4x4 3.6L . Awesome. 75,000 trouble free miles. So smooth and nice riding. I just need more off road and tow capability. The Warlock or Rebel 5.7L and 3.55 or 3.92 gears would be perfect..
Ram still making them because people are buying them ..I fell in love with the DT in 19 so been driving them ever since ..RAM-1500 KING OF TRUCKS 👌
Cheers Ram King 👍👍👍🎄
You nailed it Andre. I had a job 30 years ago in my 20's making 40k ish per year. My son is a teacher and he makes 50k per year. 10k more 30 years later doesn't cover the increases in cost of living. I could buy a house for 100k and a new truck for under 12k back then. He obviously is paying 3x to 4x more for any of that now. It is a tough world.
For the same price, you can get a base 4 cylinder Colorado or Canyon with 2 wheel drive. Not near the same capability as the Classic. Ram has made an excellent move. Tool and die already paid for, so it's just money in their pocket. Ford and GM take note
Ford is on its way to 51st year best selling vehicle in Canada. If you want a cheap one you can order it.
@@51AB Technically you can, but the wait for that vehicle is quite long from what I hear. Also, for the same price as that ram, you'll get a 2 wheel drive F150 without coil suspension. It's a great truck don't get me wrong, but the value isn't there.
You can't get anything as cheap as a ram Classic, I just got a 4x4 crew cab classic for 37K when a Ford was going to be like 10k more.
I have a 2017 ccsb hemi bighorn..I love the fact ram keeps building the classic because that means I will have lots of newer used parts as my truck ages.
Had a 2016 slt quad cab 4x4 with the 5.7. Went 180,000kms. Was a bare bones truck, the dial shift sucks, never got used to it, was fairly reliable. Had top end done, $6500 at 160,000km.I used it for oilfield work.
Buy one but get 200,000km warranty on the engine. Tough truck. Buy a ready lift lift kit, I ran 34” tires, rough country bumper as the stock one doesn’t have tow hooks plus the off-road lights come with it. I had 3:23 rear end or whatever, get lower gear if you’re wanting bigger tires or tow a holiday trailer. If you keep it stock and don’t tow the 3:23 gears are the way to go. Highway speed I got 9-11L/100km before lift and bumper.
I payed $39,000 for mine traded off at 180,000kms not pretty condition and I got $15,000 in 2022 on trade.
I had a 2019 Classic Big Horn and loved it. Traded it in early 2022 for a Rebel because I do a lot of off-roading but the Ram Classic Big Horn was a great truck for the money and ZERO problems!
just bought the 2022 Rebel with the 3rd gen deisel 2WD.I have owned all brands but non ride like this thing. Wow
@@l8tapex The ride on my Rebel, Hemi, Diamond Black Crystal Pearlcoat, red and black interior with most of the bells and whistles, is as good as any average luxury car out there. I recently took a 4000 mile trip and didn't feel fatigued at all with stops every 4-6 hours. This is my second Ram, the first one was a 2019 Classic and that had a great ride too! Enjoy your Rebel.
Great work, great initiative to get these two guys on. Whatever the problems and pitfalls of buying a continuation of an older model, I like the possibility of getting a de-contented, bare-bones truck. Any truck you CAN afford beats every truck you CAN'T. Great video.
I LOVE THE RAM CLASSIC!!!! GREAT FOR WORK AND PLAY. A GREAT VALUE AS WELL.
I purchased a 2020 Chevy trail boss in April of 2020 . Did not abuse it and didn’t take it off road. I had 7,000 miles on it and needed a torque converter and a complete transmission. Wasn’t happy and it was in Chevy dealer for longer than a month with run around. I traded it in for a ram 2021 crew cab warlock blacked out and this truck is 10 times the truck, the trailboss was. Transmission is night and day . Options are great, inside is nice. Have almost had it 2 years 17,000 miles and no issues as of yet ( knock on wood 🪵). Very happy with my warlock would recommend to anyone. I paid 51,000 right when pandemic got going w all options it had. All pickups now 60,70,80 thousand. Crazy I couldn’t afford it . Good video guys . Thanks
Was going to buy a trail boss and I but a ram it was cheaper and nice ride quite well rounded pick up
I am the proud owner of a 2019 RAM Classic. It is probably THE best truck I have ever bought and owned. You guys are right on, the two tier strategy Stellantis is using is awesome, it gives MAX choice to the buying public. As for the RAM, I have the V6 pentastar and 3.55 gearing, which is a great combo for 95%+ of the public who will not be towing larger heavy trailers. I would encourage anyone looking for a awesome truck at a great price to check out the RAM Classic. Keep up the great work, TK's. I love your videos.
I got my 18 F150, 4 door, 4x4, 5.0 out the door w/ tax n title for $41k. At these current prices I'll be driving it until the sun burns out.
Good video. You see too many people purchasing oversized trucks that they will NEVER use to full capability. I, like most real men, love trucks. I bought the classic two years ago and use it as a truck on the weekends and use it as a commuter during the week. It is so comfortable that my wife insists we use it on longer trips. Holds way more too!
You have to imagine that Stellantis is “wasting” a manufacturing plant with the making of the classic 155 instead of shutting it down or retooling it for a different model. Perhaps they didn’t want to mess with unions.
Also, Stellantis doesn’t have a cheaper smaller truck like the Tacoma or the Ranger, etc.
so for Ranger money, they offer a full sized truck!
The plant that stuck at Classic production is the Mexico plant... you really think they care about the Mexican sweat shop plant?
@@Hydra360ci read the rest
@@Hydra360ci my Classic came out of the Warren, Michigan plant
Absolutely not a waste. The tooling for the classic has been paid for many times over. It's all profit
I build the Ram Classic as well as the Jeep Wagoneer at the Warren Truck Assembly plant. We love building the Ram here, would hate to see it go.
Dodge trucks have been the best looking trucks for decades, now. Since the 70's, really.
Yes they have robsolf. I always thought they were a great looking truck. I didn’t buy Ram because of reliability. But with this being said they have greatly improved there reliability in the 4th and 5 th gens. I love them now and bought a 2019
GREAT VIDEO AND THANKS FOR SHARING.
I want trucks to go back to mid to late 80’s with manual transmissions basic interiors and a lot cheaper price. Keep up the good work. Appreciate your videos
Especially that manual transmission !
And could take more of a beating and more reliable.
Ive had 3 Ram classics 2015, 2019, and 2022.. Two of which were the 2 door short bed 5.7s. One was a 2500. I love these trucks. What you failed to mention is the power these 5.7s put out in a small truck. I have recently got a white 2022 Ram 2door short bed with the chrome package and i love this truck.I have never lost a race on the street to any other truck so far.. They are sleepers. comfortable and fun to drive.
The 3.6L is no slouch either. Certainly not on par with the Hemi, but enough power to spank GM 5.3L equipped truck repeatedly; as one fellow morning commuter found out several times. I still regret not getting the Hemi.
@@staciecarverd8136 lmao Bro stop it. Either that didn't happen or that guy didn't know you were racing. Would the Hemi spank the 5.3? Probably. Your 3.6, though, would probably lose to the GM V6.
Why? Displacement
Source: My extensive experience driving various iterations of both trucks
Also if you ever ran into one of them Ford F150 3.5 Ecoboosts... God help you because Hemi or not, you're getting dusteddddd.
@@jbmazhar2000 I owned a GMC Sierra w/ 5.3L short bed, regular cab, two-wheel drive, with 3.42 gears. This current truck could easily match if not walk it.
Small truck?
I bought my 2022 Ram classic Crew cab Warlock 5.7 hemi 3 weeks ago .I got a 10k Ram canada discount and 4K dealer discount . Great price and great looking truck
Damn really
What’s your financing interest rate though?
@@pajamatime5750 5.99 on 6 years … i put a 15k cash down so its not that bad. And i will pay it in 2-3 years max. I live in Québec, im curious what kind of rates other province have .
@@luffy250t7 how much was total price of truck did you get after the discount I am looking to get one of this
I got mine in Ontario also a few weeks ago, I got 12K discounted off mine, I'm really happy with it.
As the owner of 2019 Big Horn, it's a great truck and still relevant and competitive.
I have an quad cab 2017 dodge Ram trademan v6 3.6 liter 305hp with 298 torque. It 6,700lbs and I like it and affordable and it good truck. I did pull car hauler trailer and it pulls very well. It Awsome truck. I thanks to tfl UA-cam and ur video too. Keep up good work. I like watch ur videos
305 horsepower is what v8 were put out 10 years ago and people are hung up on v8 but I like the v6 good power and you can turbo them and get 450 horsepower out of it
Always great videos from TK.
Ram is smart by making the classic, the price is great and the truck looks and performers great.
Thanks 👍
I just bought a 2023 Warlock 5.7 HEMI, Side steps, 8 inch screen uConnect4, tow hooks, powder coated steal front and rear bumpers, sprayed bed liner. For the price I got it for what other truck can provide those options. I always loved RAM 1500 classic body style. Love it and always will.
3 months ago. I picked up a 2019 v6 4x4 with 41,000miles for $30,000. It came leveled with original 20" rims on brand new 35x12.50 tires. Its never been off road and interior is like off the lot clean 4 door.
Ive had 2 Hemis before. I never needed that power but it was cool. On a Grand Cherokee and a 2005 SLT. This 6 is all I ever really needed. Its a very sharp all black inside and out truck and definitely affordable and best bang for the buck on how much todays new ones cost.
How are you liking the v6?
@Jay-ns5ub It's all the power or more really than I'll ever need. It's 305 hp. It's got 50,000 miles on it, 2019 and no problems except for it runs a little hotter than other engines and Dodge says it's normal. Get used to it being halfway on the temperature gage or hovering around it is the only issue I have, but it runs smooth and picks up enough for me.
I bought the v6 good power and I don't tow alot so good gas mileage too 😋
I think the warlock with 3.92 gears, LSD and and the crew cab is the sweet spot. For the earlier years you can get it with the sport leather seats. But they removed them as an option
I have a tradesman crew cab 4x4 with the hemi I love it it is a basic truck with a tow package.
I'm disappointed they stopped the standard cab/short cab version. I didn't find out about that until I started seriously considering buying one. Would love to get it 4x4 hemi, low volume color, black emblems, and swap on warlock grill and bumper.
Very cool that RAM product management gave their take.
👏👏 GREAT JOB ON THE INTERVIEWS 🙏🙏 HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY EVERYONE ✌️
Hey Guy's! Just wanted to say great channel and have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a FANTASTIC 2023! Bill from Linglestown, Pennsylvania.
I got a great deal on a 2022 GMC single cab 4x4. Base price was 40K and it had $6500 in options on the Pro model with 2.7 turbo. It had 2,000 off for the 2.7 motor then 2500 off for having owned a Gm prior. Then the dealer knocked off another 2500 and I had 2600 in GM money. So I paid right at 37K. it has 9000 lb trailer tow rating, apple car play, pro tail gate, bed liner, etc. The 2023 model base price is already up 3K from the 2022.
Great segment. I have a 2017 ram 1500 outdoorsman quad cab … so it’s the same design as the classic. Been worry free for me. I replaced the low beams with led’s due to the the dim halogens. The prices have sure made a few jumps in the build and price for all of the trucks. The classic can sure jump in price as well. The only things that might hold me back from buying a classic would be the old design crash safety and the absence of shift on the fly awd.
Just purchased a Warlock Classic after my 2013 Ram Express got totaled. I preferred the DS over the newer DTs because the classic is a no-frills hard-nose pickup. The DTs are nice but they feel and are priced like high-end GMC trucks. Dodged knocked it out of the park on these.
We are currently leasing to buy the 2022 RAM Classic V6 4x4 Quad Cab and couldn’t be happier. This thing has plenty of power and gets the 19 to 23 mpg as listed. I love driving it in the winter . It’s my first 4x4 and I don’t miss suffering in a 2nd.
What's your average mpg? Which axle ratio?
I bought the v6 too happy with the power and gas mileage and have the time the v8 goes in eco mode and it's a 4 banger anyway
@@Jay-ns5ub 20 mpg.. lots of back road driving / hills and I accelerate quickly. It’s the lighter of the gears.. I don’t tow anything though
I got one new last year. Was similarly priced to an almost entry level Tacoma, but much bigger and better. I didn’t realize until purchase that it had wireless CarPlay, and honestly its basic sound system sounds very good.
I got the warlock. V6, 6.4’ bed. Its mileage is hideous and it’s not fast, but everyone in the family likes driving it.
I love a show about the best deals. Thanks
Just bought a left over 2023 ram classic night edition a month ago with hemi and rare 3.92 gear option! The truck HAULS THE FRICKIN MAIL GUYS! Couldn't be happier, the dealer loaded it up more than most ram classics ive seen, we got it for 20k off the price as they're blowing out the 2023 with the 2025s arriving now. We got so lucky we found one that had everything we wanted and more except the sport hood😢. The truck looks so good in hydro blue with night edition. The truck woulda cost about 70k last year, a 2024 classic was 72k we got it for a hair under 50k(in Canada). there was a new style '24 ram in showroom upper middle class option wise and it was 104k!!! i cant imagine what the new 2025 rams will be, just a big horn will be 100k i bet. Glad we got ona the last "affordable" trucks youll ever see in north ameica. Its the only reason we did it, the price was too good and our 07 sierra 2500 6L clicked over half a million k last year, what a beast that thing has been. Worked hard pulling a gooseneck and construction equipment for half its life but it was well due time to get something more efficient. 13mpg hurts these days lol. That ram is averaging 22mpg back and forth 2 work saving us hundreds in fuel a month(lotsa driving). Dont hesitate people, get one while u still can!
I ordered my 2021ram1500 classic tradesman quad cab 4x4 v6 with lots of extras last may 2021 got it july 2021 great simple truck 🛻👍😊12,000 trouble free miles 😀
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I LOVE MY CANADIAN FAMILY!!!!
Love my 21’ ram warlock
I have an express 2 years old, 40,000 kilometres on it... still get compliments on this basic truck. I do keep it clean and maintained my car saleman buddy says he could get almost full price for it
Best value for the money. I love mine. Bought one with about 11000 miles on it for a 10000 discount.
I think the Ram Classic is probably going to have it's best year ever. With inflation and economic challenges it's price point makes it a great option and from a reliability standpoint it's hard to go wrong with vehicle that has had all the bugs worked out years ago.
literally signed papers today for a 22 warlock due to price point and interest rates. Wanted a tundra but got priced out with the size of the payments.
Rebates are now 15% off MSRP and up to $3,000 below-invoice on any new 2023 Classic leftover. I think 2023 will be its final model year.
I have a 2019 ram 1500 classic love it has a 2.5 inch leveling kit with 35 inch tires rides like a rolls lol
They just look so dang good. Nothing compares other than trx and raptor.
always out to get you give you a semi cheek truck and overcharge you for four-wheel-drive. The price be right back up there where the other trucks at you can’t win for losing.
I have a 2014 1500 Sport QC 5.7 and love it. My opinion is that not necessarily the other brands would be successful with having 2 models. They would need to have the sales to back it up. I think in the case of the RAM, there were some leaked images of the 5th gen, and there seemed to be quite a bit of negative feedback so they decided to keep the classic alive for 1 year. The thing they didn't expect was the superb sales of the Classic, so they kept it going. I wasn't a fan of the 5th Gen at first, but grew to like the look of it after a while. Just my opinion on the situation.
In other words.. the classic is rams mid size truck. I know it’s not mid size. But can be optioned at mid size truck pricing.
Local dealer has a warlock with a bunch of add ons marked down over 15grand. I may have to swing by there tomorrow and see if it’s still available
I think they learned from their vans. I picked up a Grand Caravan in 2017 and it was similarly equipped to the Pacifica at the time for more than $10,000 less. I drove the Pacifica and it was definitely a touch nicer but for the money it was a no brainer. I think this Classic is in a similar place. If you just want a truck it's basically priced the same as the small trucks other manufacturers have.
Great video
I bought my 2021 ram classic with the night edition and hemi and I’m very happy with it. This is the fourth ram since 2005 and they are dead reliable. The only thing I don’t like is they have crappy rotors that last maybe 50,000 kms.
I build the Ram 1500 Classic at the Warren Truck Assembly plant! It’s a great truck.
Will there be a 2024 model year for Classic?
People are talking about how "if I spec thos out on the website then it's the same price as the new one" which may be true, but the used prices are where it's at! You can find 2019's for like $25k.
Here in Alberta I see these ram classics probably at least 3:1 compared to the new body style rams. My buddy just bought one and is loving his.
We love the 4th gen!
Still a beautiful truck timeless design
Andre, thanks for your comment on inflation and salaries!!!! 😢
You need the Hemi in this truck. It's just a must for you guys!!
Ram classics are great trucks.
I dunno about that being the most affordable, I grabbed a 2022.5 (refreshed) Silverado 1500 LT, Texas Edition Crew, tow package (2500 in the cab and 9800 tow), 5.3 10 speed, spray bed liner, free accessory, for 39K…
Got a 2019 ram classic lone star edition, crew cab, 5.7 HEMI, 4x4, roll & lock bed cover, 55k miles but I only paid 28k for it from a dealer.
So when the 6 gen comes out does Ram keep making 4th Gen classics or does the 5th gen now become the classic?
I know things are more expensive now but I bought my 2019 Ram 1500 Bighorn with hemi 4x4 remote start and 8.4 touch screen radio. This isn't a classic and I paid 37K for it new. That's the same money for allot more truck. Prices are ridiculous these days. Good video though. Interesting to see where things are going in the truck world these days.
I just spoke to a Ram sales representative recently, he told me the Classic is on its way out.The only reason it's still around is because it's a cheap platform and some buyers want a cheaper trim Ram than what the latest generation Ram can offer
Is 2023 the final model year for Classic?
I wish Manufactures would make more 2 rear wheel drive trucks.
Hard to argue with the savings. If it's actually going to be used as a truck, it'll get used and abused, so might as well get one cheap and put it to work. No need for raptors that haven't gone over more than a pebble.
like it still can be had in a single cab ,short bed ,4x4 and a 5.7 hemi
no one mentions the style of the Classic, best looking full size truck on the mkt today
Will the rest of the truck line ever migrate out of Mexico? The HD’s were supposed to move to the USA, but I don’t know if that fell through or was never more than just wishful thinking. I think the classic 1500 will die off when the HD’s move or finally get updated to the 5th gen cab.
i do not care much for the modern tech.. silent cabin and a alright sound system is to me way more important than display sizes and touch screens.
While I love the Ram Classic- I would argue it's one of the worst values in trucks if you are getting anything other than a barebones tradesman. Just for fun I just built and priced one on Ram's site. It came out to over 59,000 to get a crew cab 4wd with a few options. To put that into perspective I had a 2013 Ram Outdoorsman Crew Cab that was as loaded as you could get, and I paid $33k. Nearly an identical truck is now almost double the price- absolutely insane when you consider they are using many of the identical parts and tooling from back in 2013! As a comparison my 2021 F150 Tremor 401A (mid level package) was 58k, and has far more modern features and tech than the more expensive Warlock I just built. When you consider the poor resale value, anything other than the most basic Ram Classic is a terrible value. Really brilliant on Ram's part- though all the mfg equipment etc... has been paid for many times over- I would guess their profit on a Ram Classic is higher than any other vehicle they build.
Used prices are much more reasonable.
In Ontario they have been discounting the Classic's by 10-14k, which puts them back into the bargain range. Hopefully they do that in other markets as well.
The gentleman from TFL trucks kept saying salaries haven’t gone up but I’m sure he means wages.
Seems like alot of Rams lately, are they the only ones you can get ? around here the dealers are full of them ,and their competitors have very few trucks .
So saying I can put turbo in my truck? How that work?
So does this mean they're bringing back the Dakota and possibly an even smaller "truck" like the Maverick?
“You heard from the guy who knows, and also from Andre” ouch
That truck must Feel like his car out of a solid chunk of steel. They’ve been manufacturing it since 2009. They must have it every single squeaks and rattles and quality issue worked out by now. The ride must be so solid. And it still has the coil rear suspension too. And the look is not that much different from the current generation. But you better get them while you can. They are on their way out.
Ram Classic is now rated more-reliable than Toyota Tundra by Consumer Reports, for the first time ever in history.
I have a 2020 ram classic SLT crew cab let me know if you want any content for your channel
8:43 the regular cab door is longer than other models?
Yes, it allows easier access to the space behind the seat.
Pretty sure you can get a Nissan Titan for less than the cost of that Classic Ram MSRP.
I optioned a Classic out and the price difference between one and what I am driving now was not that much of a difference. Plus the resale value on the Classic is not very good.
Except for the regular cab base with zero option.
Ram should do the same with the HDs
i like my ram 1500 classic
Who has bought a warlock. Hemi or pentastar in Canada…. What prices are people paying now in Canada.
Bought a Warlock Hemi several weeks ago, had a 10k manufacturer discount and then 2K discount from the dealer
Just signed for a 22 warlock hemi fully loaded minus leather for 55k. I wanted a tundra but am not paying 900-1000 a month payment for a 80k truck with 17k down. It is just not feasible. I had a 2014 ram and it was bullet proof but eventually after being beat to much it had some work to be done at 175km.
It's because the classic is the last truck you can order thays affordable and comes as a truck. Not some 95k luxury vehicle. Bought my 2017 ram for 20k used in 2020. Things a champ. Just hauls on and never let's me down. Could drive 5 of these into the ground before buying some Chevy RST Trail Boss blah blah blah for 94k
I wanted a warlock but the prices were too near the price of a quad cab 5th Gen.
These prices be whack man. I really wanted and tried to grab a '22 4x4 warlock quad cab with a 6'4 bed that my local dodge place had in stock that's been sitting there for over 3 months now. Sales manager would not budge below $51,000 otd. In the end drove to the next town and picked up a Bighorn crewcab 4wd and 6'4 bed for $50g OTD that's definitely more truck than the warlock. If that warlock had the hemi engine maybe I would've gotten it :/
@@DioxCarmine Not surprised. The dealers are trying to squeeze every last drop of blood.
RAM Canada is offering 15K off the 2022 classic now due to they are not selling. RAM as increased their price's to much. Saw a new 2022 Chev single cab WT 4x4 here at a local GM dealer. MSRP 54K. WTF. Us Canadian's are getting gouged.
Most trucks in Canada are cheaper than USA when you do the currency conversion today. For the money TFL paid for that base 2 door v6 you can get a nice crew cab V8 in Canada (converted $)
They have always been 15 % off and still selling strong in Canada
@@RAM-KINGOFTRUCKS they are not selling well.Lots are overflowing with them
RAM 1500 5,7 YESSS IRRR👍👍👍
I have one Ram 1500 classic 2021 i love this Truck tank Truck King for information
Why do vehicles have to cost more than some houses?
If they kept the 2500/3500 classic, I would’ve bought one. Such a solid truck! You knew exactly what you were getting. 1500 classic, not a fan. My buddy bought one for 70k. My 5th gen Laramie night edition was 74k. Why bother?
Wtf hahahahaha. Why did he do that?
@@FrameRot because now the truck I bought is about 88-90k
@@JasonP32 I meant why did your buddy buy a classic for 70k?
@@FrameRot lol the above is why. An affordable truck doesn’t exist anymore. The manufacturers know this and exploit ones need of a truck. (I bet most don’t need, but, want). They were never meant to be a luxury vehicle. Yes, I like cooled leather seats, but, I don’t need a truck to park for me or have trailer reverse guidance. My god, if one can’t back up a trailer, one probably shouldn’t tow a trailer to begin with.
@@JasonP32 you're right. Prices are so high right now it's ridiculous. Honestly I think they should discontinue the Classic trim, there's no point in buying those anymore this day in age.
i love my 2021 ram 1500 classic warlock quadcab. i bought it right at the worst time in the spike i got it for 50k. I've done some upgrading to it myself. what else could you want in a truck. has good payload, mine has a good towing capacity. it's gotnthe pentastar v6 engine. great truck.
Love my 21 v6 Warlock. The new design is lacking to me.
The funny thing is before Toyota updated their truck, all you could do is complain about how outdated the truck was. I don't get it?
Yea, but the outdated Tundra cost as much as trucks light years ahead of them. The whole point of the Ram Classic is it’s cheaper, for people who don’t care about options. To state the obvious.
Honestly, If my truck died tomorrow RAM Classic would be at the top of my list to replace it. It's just a good value.
