Used Ram 1500 for Sale

The Ram 1500 we know and love today has only technically been around since the 2011 model year, but its roots go much deeper than that within the landscape of the American auto industry. For decades before 2010, this legendary truck was known as the Dodge Ram pickup and it was developed and engineered by teams at Dodge, rather than being its own brand. The Dodge Ram was first introduced at the end of 1980 as a 1981 model and featured the iconic Ram hood ornament that has been a mainstay of Americana ever since.

Dodge’s legacy with trucks goes back even further with pickups like the Dodge D Series introduced in the 1960s, the C Series in the 1950s, and the B Series that dates back to just after World War II. You can even go much further and find Dodge trucks in the 1930s; the point is that these trucks are not simply the product of the last decade or two. These are powerful pickups that are part of a much greater legacy, and each one has to live up to the expectations of generations of truck owners and drivers. That seems like a lot of pressure to us, yet it is something the modern Ram 1500 does year after year.

The early Dodge Ram trucks were offered as a two-wheel drive Ram model or a four-wheel drive Power Ram and became an important part of the truck landscape in the 1980s and 1990s. These trucks went head-to-head with other legends like the Ford F-150 and held their own, demonstrating the remarkable power and sophistication they have been known for ever since. By the time the fourth generation of the Ram came around for the 2009 model year, it was overdue to establish itself as its own brand. This was the last time this iconic truck would be offered as the Dodge Ram; it has simply been the Ram 1500 since the 2011 model as Dodge has focused on performance cars and SUVs, with Ram solely providing powerful pickups.

Since then, the Ram 1500 has continued to evolve and remained at the forefront of the American truck market. Over the last decade or so, Ram has delivered incredible power and performance with their legendary HEMI V8 engines and stylish designs that include surprisingly luxurious interiors. Ram has pushed the envelope on the kinds of comfort and technology you find in a truck, leaving other brands like Ford and GM scurrying to try to keep up. Today, the Ram 1500 continues to be one of the most powerful and important trucks on (and off) the road, delivering remarkable capability and bold engineering few other trucks can hope to match.

Considering the legacy of the Ram 1500, it is easy to see why so many people choose it over other trucks out there. Finding a used Ram truck is relatively easy, but picking the right dealership makes it much easier to get the best one to meet your needs. As you look at various pre-owned Ram trucks, you will find a wide range of features across different model years and generations, so it helps to have someone by your side to answer your questions and guide you as you look for the right one.

You might go back to a 2011 model, but we suggest looking for a 2013 or later Ram 1500—it received a facelift and update for 2013, making it a great choice for a wide range of needs. If you are looking for the latest features and technology, consider a model from 2019, when Ram launched the fifth generation of this legendary truck. However, one thing to keep in mind is that the fourth-generation pickup remained available as the Ram 1500 Classic, so remember that as you look at different used Ram trucks from 2019 and later.
