What should I look for when buying a used 2022 RAM 1500?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The 2022 RAM 1500 is available in Quad Cab and Crew Cab body styles, with a standard 6-foot, 4-inch cargo box and an available 5-foot, 7-inch box on Crew Cab models. The base Tradesman is the entry point, while higher trims add more luxury, technology, and equipment; the Sport grade also marks where 4WD becomes standard in Canada.
• Powertrain: You can find a standard 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 with eTorque, an available 5.7-litre Hemi V8 with or without eTorque, and the EcoDiesel turbocharged 3.0-litre diesel V6. The diesel is the efficiency-focused choice, but it comes at a premium.
• Safety package: Blind-spot monitoring with trailer coverage and rear cross-traffic alert start on Big Horn trims. Higher trims can add automatic high-beam headlights, forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability through the Advanced Safety Group.
• Infotainment: Uconnect 5 is optional on lower trims and standard from Sport upward. Screen size is 8.4 inches on lower trims and 12 inches on higher trims, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included. OTA capability is not stated.
• Fuel efficiency: The EcoDiesel is rated at 9.7 L/100 km in combined driving, and the test truck averaged 9.5 L/100 km on a testing loop.

Which 2022 RAM 1500 trim should I buy?

The 2022 RAM 1500 is offered in 8 trim levels: Tradesman, Big Horn, Sport, Rebel, Laramie, Limited Longhorn, Limited, TRX.

Here's the short version:

• Tradesman: This is the most affordable starting point, but you should expect the fewest standard features. It makes sense if you want a work-focused truck and plan to add equipment selectively.
• Big Horn: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds more everyday comfort and is the first trim tied to the available blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert package.
• Sport: This is a strong choice if you want a better-equipped truck with 4WD standard in Canada and access to more advanced tech.
• Rebel: Choose this if you want a more rugged personality and a trim that leans toward capability and attitude.
• Laramie: This is the right middle ground if you want a more premium cabin and a richer feature set without jumping all the way to the luxury trims.
• Limited Longhorn: This suits you if you want upscale materials and a more distinctive premium-truck feel.
• Limited: This is the luxury pick, with the most polished cabin presentation and the kind of equipment that makes the Ram feel especially refined.
• TRX: This is the performance flagship, aimed at buyers who want the most extreme version of the truck.

The safety-package trim note is that the most advanced driver-assistance features are reserved for higher trims and the Advanced Safety Group.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 RAM 1500?

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 31.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,388 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 9.23% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $41,067 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 RAM 1500's resale value?

The current average of $41,067 CAD sits slightly below last year's $45,245 CAD.

That softer pricing can help you buy in more favourably now, but it also means future sellers may face a more competitive market if values continue to ease. If you own one, strong condition, desirable equipment, and a well-kept service history should matter more when it comes time to resell.

Because the model has strong owner satisfaction, demand should remain healthy for clean examples. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.78/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 RAM 1500 safe?

The 2022 RAM 1500 earns a Top Safety Pick rating from IIHS when equipped with all of its driver aids, and it earns a five-star overall rating from NHTSA, with four-star frontal-impact ratings for the driver and front passenger.

It earns a 6/10 safety score from our experts.

Available driver-assist features on Big Horn trims include blind-spot monitoring with trailer coverage and rear cross-traffic alert. Higher trims can add automatic high-beam headlights, forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability. The Advanced Safety Group also adds the head-up display, surround-view camera, rain-sensing wipers, and a parking-assistance system.

A key caveat is that some important safety features are not standard, which matches owner feedback about missing standard safety equipment.

Should I buy a 2022 RAM 1500 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 31.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 9.23% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.78/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 brings Uconnect 5 and a broader mix of comfort, tech, and refinement.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $33,478 CAD, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $41,067 CAD average.
• It adds a performance-focused TRX edge.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $42,211 CAD, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $41,067 CAD average.
• It leans further into upscale comfort and premium interior materials.

The bottom line: If you want the best balance of price, satisfaction, and modern features, the 2022 is the primary path to consider. If your budget is tighter, the 2021 can save you money, while the 2023 is worth a look if you want a slightly newer truck and are willing to pay more.
