However, all good things come to an end and we learned yesterday that the Ram Classic adventure would soon end in Canada. Ram announced that it had recently stopped building examples for the country. Their sale continues in the United States and Mexico, but it is not known for how long.
The success of the model was strong initially. Automotive News and JD Power report that the vehicle accounted for nearly a third of the brand’s pickup truck sales in 2019. However, the regular Ram 1500 benefits from tweaks for 2025, and the gap with the previous generation model is growing. is growing more and more. Then, it’s also time to move on, especially since Ram is due to start assembling electric variants soon. We must make the current platform profitable, too.
For those who still want to be able to get their hands on a full-size pickup truck at a slightly more reasonable price, you’ll need to act quickly to take advantage of the versions that remain in stock.
