After an impressive run that began back in 2009, the Ram 1500 Classic will soon be put out to pasture. As confirmed by Automotive News, there will no longer be any place for the entry-level pickup in the Ram lineup in 2025 because there's something newer to take its place.

Ram's Most Affordable Full-Size Pickup Is Dead

If you drive anywhere in America today, you know there's no shortage of huge pickup trucks. The basic "full-size" pickups including the Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra, and Nissan Titan have been growing for decades. If you look a little closer, it's easy to see that many people don't really need a truck that big. They might even be happier with a more affordable and more fuel-efficient truck.

The pickup truck is synonymous with blue-collar Americans as a vehicle doing double duty as both a mode of transport and a means of carrying out hard work. The latter is a trait that would seem to perfectly line up with the concept of a manual gearbox, as both the pickup truck and the stick shift are signs that the operator is not afraid to put in the effort. The manual gearbox is simple, robust, and hard-working, as are America's pickups. So why, then, have their numbers dwindled?

For Ford fans, the performance years of the 1960s brought one advancement after another, and that time line begins with Ford’s assault at Indy in 1963 with its DOHC V-8 based on the small-block Windsor. Meanwhile, Ford’s “big-block”—the FE engine family—which began modestly in 1958 at 332-, 352-, and 360-cubic-inch displacements—had by the time of this story grown to 427 cubes and would power Ford to wins at Le Mans in 1966 and 1967. The subject of Eric Dahlquist’s original story, the 427-ci SOHC “Cammer,” was based on the FE and showed what could be done quickly within the warrens of Ford powertrain. At the time, it was unknown whether the engine would see production in factory-built cars (it wouldn’t), but for a short time the hemi-headed cammer would please crowds in A/FX cars built by Holman & Moody and Bill Stroppe Engineering before becoming a darling in the nitro-fueled ranks in front of drivers like Don Prudhomme, Connie Kalitta, Jack Chrisman, and Don Nicholson. —Johnny Hunkins.

Ever since the Tesla Cybertruck landed in owner's hands, the unique and borderline contentious pickup truck has been subject to a plethora of experiments and tests. Not too long ago, we chronicled the trials of a dual-motor Cybertruck that was taken to a tractor pull, and ended up losing pretty miserably to a diesel-powered 6.7-litre RAM Cummins. However, with the Cybertruck's latest off-road update, the tables appear to have turned quite dramatically in the Cybertruck's favor.
