Ram 1500
The Ram 1500 is known for its class-leading ride quality, thanks to a standard coil-spring rear suspension. While many serve as daily workhorses, the 702 hp supercharged TRX has become a modern performance collectible commanding high prices.

Ram 1500 Submodels
The Ram 1500 became a standalone brand separate from Dodge for the 2010 model year, quickly establishing its own identity. A key innovation was the standard multi-link, coil-spring rear suspension on the fourth-generation model (DS/DJ), introduced in 2009. This design provided a significantly better unladen ride quality than traditional leaf springs and became a brand hallmark that competitors later followed.
Collector interest is overwhelmingly focused on high-performance and limited-edition models, especially the Ram 1500 TRX. Introduced for the 2021 model year, the TRX features a 702 hp supercharged 6.2L Hemi V8, making it a direct competitor to the Ford F-150 Raptor. Its extreme performance and limited production run have made it an instant collectible with strong resale values.
The market for the Ram 1500 is broad, spanning from basic work trucks to luxurious Limited trims and the aforementioned TRX. While older, higher-mileage examples can be found for under $15,000, recent sales show the market's peak is dominated by TRX models, which often sell for well over their original sticker price. The average sale price of over $66,000 reflects the strong influence of these high-end variants.
Buying Tips
- Check the Uconnect infotainment screen for bubbling, delamination, or unresponsiveness, which are known issues.
- On models with the 5.7L Hemi V8, listen carefully for the 'Hemi tick,' a sign of potential lifter and camshaft failure.
- If equipped with the optional four-corner air suspension, cycle the truck through all its ride height settings to ensure the system functions correctly and doesn't leak.
- Inspect the undercarriage and suspension components of any TRX or off-road model for signs of hard use or damage.
Prices for traded examples range from around $10,000 for older work trucks to over $120,000 for late-model TRX variants.
