When I purchased the base model Ram Classic pick-up in 2021, it cost $27K. It has the same engine and drive train as the $50K model, just not as pretty. A buddy of mine wanted to know why I did this and I told him both trucks do the same thing, but I have all that extra money in the bank. He just blinked at me and walked away, because he's an idiot.

I also needed the truck, he didn't need his, he just wanted to have what his other buddies had.

Out west where cars don't rust out from road salt, you see people still driving these 1970s trucks into job sites. A truck is a truck. Might as well get one from that era thats no taller than a sedan these days but still has a full bed and a big block thats probably going to keep on ticking another 50 years easy.
