Ram power wagon value?

[aer21]

I’d like to get one of these just like the one I have in the link. Is the pricing fair?

Seems a little high to me.

RAM won an unofficial award in 2024. The award was for being the slowest selling truck on the market in 2024.

I'd put money on it saying you could get that, or very close to it, by going to RAM dealers in your area and negotiating.

I recently (Dec.2024) helped a friend find a Power Wagon and a few BOLOs (be on the lookout) from that search.....
A lot of dealers will list Rams on the Cars.com/Autotrader/etc type websites as 'Power Wagon' and they are not. They just use that as clickbait. So go to the dealer's website to be sure (copy and search using the VIN gets the quickest results). If it is a 'diesel', not a Power Wagon, 'no winch' (easy to see in photos), not a Power Wagon, '1500', not a Power Wagon.

Unless you need/want all the bells and whistles that come with the Power Wagon level 2 package and want to save big bucks, you can get a Tradesman with the Power Wagon package (locking axles, sway bar disconnect, winch), as an apx. $8,000 option. I found a brand new 2024 Tradesman 2500 with that package in the color my friend wanted for $51,000 at a dealer in Phoenix, Arizona. Nothing against Power Wagons with level 2, that is what mine is and I love it, but my friend was looking for a 'basic' Power Wagon, and was happy to save $25,000 (he still owes me dinner )

The dealer we got his truck from was Bill Luke .. they have a new (10 miles) 2024 Tradesman (in Expo White) with the Power Wagon package for $52,289

And a bunch of 2024 'real' Power Wagons $64-70,000 range
Outstanding dealership, rock solid. I think they had a $475 'paperwork' fee.
FYI shipping from Phoenix to Southern Oregon was $1,200

This is what the Power Wagon Package adds:



Disclaimer - no relationship with Bill Luke dealership, vehicles listed, etc

That would be a nice first drive with the truck! Lots of cool things to see along the way.

Agreed. I drove my Ram home from Texas. A great trip, I got to know the truck real well and hit up a bunch of museum etc on the way home.



I even offer to drive my friends new Ram home from Phoenix (he can not spend too long driving due to med-issues), but since it was a dealer, sales tax gets to be an issue. While Oregon is sales tax free (well, 0.5% on new vehicles), there would have still been a 'city tax' in Phoenix that the dealer would have had to collect if picked up there. My Texas trip came out to $0.81 per mile (airfare out, fuel (I'm on 40s, so less for a 'normal' Ram), lodging, food) so the Phoenix trip would have been about $800. That plus the city tax made it about even to ship. But ya, road trips rule, especially in Power Wagons
