Here's the cost for a 2019 Ram Heavy Duty truck


The 2019 Ram Heavy Duty pickup unveiled at this year’s Detroit auto show will launch with a starting price of $33,395.

The price, not including a $1,695 destination charge, for the Ram 2500 Tradesman regular cab 4×2 represents the low end of the spectrum for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles’ new trucks, which are expected to go on sale this spring. On the other end is the Ram 3500 Limited Mega Cab 4×4 with 12-inch Uconnect 4C touchscreen at $67,050, not including destination, according to a news release.

The company noted that pricing is for the standard 6.4-liter Hemi V8 with 8-speed automatic. Add $9,100 for the optional 6.7-liter Cummins turbo diesel with 6-speed automatic transmission or $11,795 for the Cummins High Output mated to the Aisin 6-speed — available in the Ram 3500 — to hit the 1,000 pound-feet of torque milestone.
