A RAM vehicle is the perfect companion if you need something practical, durable, and strong. These trucks are workhorses that people have sworn by for years, so a used RAM can serve you just as well as a new one.
How a Used RAM Can Be a Great Asset for Work and Play
Used Can Offer More Variety
Although there are a lot of great new RAM vehicles released each year, there are some fantastic ones that have been discontinued. For example, the RAM 1500 Classic was discontinued after the 2024 model year, but it’s a fantastic, capable truck that many drivers will still appreciate. That’s not the only discontinued RAM model, either.
If you’re interested in driving a discontinued model, then used is the only way to go. Despite the fact that they’re no longer being made, discontinued vehicles still offer fantastic features and great capability that’ll serve you well.
More Features for a Lower Price
Since used trucks cost less than new ones in most cases, you could get a truck with more features for a lower price. If you’re getting a vehicle that’s just a few years old, you could get one of the highest trims with lots of useful packages and add-ons. The same amount of money might have only gotten you the base trim of the current-year model.
The 2024 RAM 1500 has available features such as air suspension so you can change your ride height, a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 engine for a ton of power, an upscale cabin with extra comfort features, and lots of driver assistance technology. Add-ons like this do a lot to enhance your ride, and you’ll get them for less money when buying a used vehicle.
Used Trucks Remain Strong
Used trucks are no less strong than new ones a lot of the time. The 2024 RAM 1500 tows up to 12,750 pounds, while the 2025 model tows 11,580 pounds. The 2020 RAM 3500 can tow up to 35,100 pounds, and the 2025 version can tow up to 36,610 pounds.
These differences between model years are minimal, and some older models are actually stronger than their newer counterparts, meaning a used truck may be better for people who want a particular model but need a higher towing capacity than the current one offers.
Great Comfort and Technology
RAM trucks that are a few years old have a similar level of comfort and high-quality technology to newer models. For example, the 2025 RAM HD has a large infotainment touchscreen with Wi-Fi and smartphone connectivity. The cabin has luxury-level comfort and detailing. The 2020 version’s cabin rivals luxurious car brands, and it has Wi-Fi, smartphone integration, and an infotainment screen that’s only 0.4 inches smaller than the one in the 2025 model.
