How much does the 2023 RAM 2500 cost?

Prices have softened 7.53% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 5,670 listings available, which suggests you have a healthy amount of inventory to compare.

If you find a listing below $49,135.80, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2023 RAM 2500 a good car?

Generally — the 2023 RAM 2500 earns 4.2/5 from owners and 7.5/10 from our experts. The standout strength is Performance at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise its power and comfort, and many describe it as a solid value for towing and utility features. The user feedback also points to technology and luxury touches as positives, while the overview frames it as a spacious, comfortable heavy-duty truck that still feels usable day to day.

The trade-offs are real, though: the expert notes call out a column shifter that feels flimsy and difficult entry and exit. The overview also makes clear that this is still a rugged work-first truck, even if it is more livable than some extreme off-road heavy-duty rivals.

With 27.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, the market gives you some room to shop carefully without rushing.

Is the 2023 RAM 2500 reliable?

Owners rate it 4.2/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction.

The user feedback points to a truck that owners generally find dependable for the jobs they need it to do, with repeated praise for power, comfort, towing, and utility. That kind of satisfaction usually matters in a heavy-duty pickup, because buyers tend to keep these trucks for demanding work and long ownership cycles.

The expert notes also describe it as a solid, refined truck that feels well suited to hard use, and the cost-effectiveness commentary suggests the package is competitive for what you get. The available maintenance perk language is not present here, so the ownership story rests more on capability and owner approval than on extra service incentives.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that heavy-duty trucks can hide expensive wear if they have been worked hard, so condition and service history matter a lot.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 RAM 2500?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 87.9% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully, because a clean listing percentage does not replace a proper records review. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection that focuses on signs of hard towing, off-road use, and wear in the cabin and controls. Pay close attention to how the truck enters, exits, and drives at low speed, since those are the kinds of details that can reveal whether it has been used and maintained well.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Rebel’s aggressive appearance is built around a crew-cab layout with a 6-foot, 4-inch bed, plus a Rebel-specific grille, 20-inch wheels, and a cleaner look than the Power Wagon’s graphics, winch, and 17-inch wheels. The base setup also leaves out some of the more specialized hardware found on the Power Wagon, so you should decide whether you want the Rebel’s more livable balance or a more extreme off-road setup.
• Powertrain: You get a standard 6.4-liter V8 with 410 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque, plus an available 6.7-liter Cummins turbodiesel inline-six with 370 hp and 850 lb-ft. The V8 is the better choice if you want maximum towing and payload, while the diesel is the torque-heavy option if you value effortless pulling and better efficiency.
• Safety package: Ram offers automatic high-beam headlights, forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, blind
