Are RAM 3500 models reliable?

Owners and experts consistently point to the RAM 3500’s strong towing performance, comfortable cabins, and broad capability as major strengths.

• Owners rate the RAM 3500 between 4.0 and 5.0 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.

For used buyers, long-term ownership risk is most closely tied to the truck’s heavy-duty hardware and the costs that can come with maintaining a large, diesel-powered pickup.

What RAM 3500 do most buyers choose?

The RAM 3500 years with the most listings are 2023, 2024, and 2025.

These higher-volume years tend to attract more shoppers because they offer a strong mix of newer features, broad availability, and a wide spread of prices. That gives you more choice when comparing trims, equipment, and deal quality.

What is the RAM 3500's resale value?

Most model years in the table are down year over year, and several recent years show double-digit declines. That creates more room for used buyers to find value, especially among newer trucks that have already moved off their peak pricing. A few older years are steadier or rising, which shows that some well-equipped examples continue to command strong prices.

The 2016 model year is holding steady, with prices close to flat year-over-year.

The 2015, 2016, and 2018 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Should I buy a used RAM 3500 now or wait for the next model?
