Dodge Ram Submodels
The Dodge Ram pickup line, which began in 1981, established a reputation for toughness that was cemented with the introduction of the Cummins turbodiesel engine in 1989. The second-generation truck's debut in 1994 was a major turning point, introducing a revolutionary "big-rig" exterior design that influenced truck styling for decades. Ram was later spun off from Dodge as its own brand in 2010, but the legacy of the original Dodge-branded trucks remains strong.
Collectors prize specific eras and models. The first-generation trucks with the 12-valve 5.9L Cummins are legendary for their simple, million-mile durability. Second-generation models are iconic for their styling, while the Viper-powered SRT-10 (2004-2006) represents the peak of factory muscle trucks and is a blue-chip collectible. These trucks appeal to those who value mechanical simplicity, towing capability, or outright V10 performance.
The market for Dodge Rams is incredibly diverse, with 1,427 recent sales reflecting its wide appeal. While high-mileage work trucks make up the low end, the average price of $27,753 shows a healthy demand for clean, well-maintained examples. The market's high point is defined by low-mileage specialty models like the SRT-10 and exceptionally preserved first-generation Cummins trucks, which can sell for significant premiums.
Buying Tips
- Check for rust in the rocker panels, cab corners, and bed, and inspect the frame for any signs of corrosion, especially on trucks from northern climates.
- On 1989-1998 Cummins models, ask for proof of the "Killer Dowel Pin" (KDP) fix to prevent a common and catastrophic engine failure.
- For performance SRT-10 models, carefully test the T-56 manual transmission for smooth engagement and listen for bearing noise, as repairs can be expensive.
- Automatic transmissions, especially on older, high-torque diesel models, are a known weak point. Check for firm shifts and review maintenance history.
- Inspect front-end components like ball joints and track bars, as the truck's heavy front end causes these parts to wear out frequently.
