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.

If your only argument against the 2025 Ram 1500 is it doesn’t have a Hemi, you’re missing out. I crave a V-8 burble as much as anyone, but after a week with the latest half-ton Ram and its high-output 3.0-liter Hurricane inline-six, I don’t miss the Hemi even a teeny bit. I absolutely love this truck.

The 2025 Ram 1500 Is Better Without the Hemi V-8

The Ram 1500 has the most power of any light-duty pickup truck, except Raptor R. Hooking up a 5,000-pound trailer to the Ram 1500 doesn’t phase the truck. The Ram instantly integrates its active safety tech with a trailer. The Ram 1500 may not have the highest towing rating,...

Ram 1200 makes its official debut in Mexico. The midsized truck is a rebadged Peugeot Landtrek/Fiat Titano. Just one gas-powered engine is available. Competitive pricing makes the Ram 1200 an attractive option, with pricing starting at the equivalent of $25,000. Earlier this year, the Ram 1200 leaked early, giving us...

On August 1, in a bit about impending Stellantis layoffs at the Warren Truck Plant that builds the Jeep Wagoneer, Grand Wagoneer, and Ram 1500 Classic, AutoForecast Solutions wrote "The Ram 1500 Classic is scheduled to end production in September, leaving just the large Jeep SUVs at the facility." The next day, Automotive News followed up with more layoff news, writing that a seating supplier for the new-old-stock pickup would permanently shed 63 workers, adding that Ram CEO Christine Feuell confirmed the end of the 15-year-old truck. A Ram spokesperson put the period at the end with, "The Ram 1500 Classic has been a great entry point pickup for Ram, and the Tradesman model has certainly represented the needs of our commercial truck customers. With the introduction of the Tradesman trim on the new Ram 1500 for 2024 model year, we bid farewell to the previous generation and remind customers that the HEMI-powered Ram 1500 Classic will sell into 2025."

Ram redesigned its pickup truck for the 2019 model year, which means it’s relatively old at this point. And yet, it’s not the oldest Ram you can still buy new. For whatever reason, Ram just kept selling the old 1500 alongside the new one. The Ram 1500 Classic as it is now known was originally introduced in 2009, and still refuses to die. Until now. Ram has confirmed to the Drive that it plans to take the Classic out behind the shed to give it the Old Yeller treatment.

It may seem surprising that truck-crazy North America didn’t get the previous generation Ranger Raptor.

First, mid-size...

It used to be that an inline four-cylinder was just slightly more powerful than a lawnmower, but modern performance technology, as well as super and turbocharging, has made them formidable engines. In fact, there are some high-output I-4s that rival V-6s and even V-8s, both in horsepower and torque. Gone are the days when four-cylinders were only for sensible compacts, as they now power some of the hottest rides around.

The Ford Explorer added the distinct, luxurious King Ranch trim to its lineup back in the 2021 model year, helping to celebrate 20 years of FoMoCo’s collaboration with the legendary South Texas cattle ranch, beginning with the 2001 Ford F-150 King Ranch. Since then, the King Ranch trim has been offered not only in the F-150, but also, the Ford Super Duty and the Ford Expedition. However, the King Ranch trim was somewhat surprisingly excluded from the 2025 Ford Explorer refresh.

The Ram 1500 Classic is being discontinued after the 2024 model year, the company confirmed.

Without the Classic on sale, Ram will no longer offer...

There are a lot of factors that determine how much power an internal combustion engine makes, but the biggest is simply how fast it can consume fuel. This is true in both turbocharged and naturally aspirated drivetrains. While turbo or supercharged engines can get away with smaller displacements, because they force the fuel into the combustion chambers, the best way to make more ponies with air-breathers is to increase the cubic inches.

Following its debut in early February, the 2025 Ford Explorer entered production at the Chicago Assembly plant in May, but due to the automaker’s new quality checks, the refreshed model just began hitting dealer lots late last month. The Explorer’s more luxurious counterpart – the 2025 Lincoln Aviator – was on a similar trajectory, and also entered production alongside its platform mate. Now, both of these revamped models are officially shipping to customers and dealers, according to The Blue Oval.

Discontinued some time ago, the high-performance Ford Focus RS remains a hot target on the used vehicle market, and more recently, the collector car space as well. In that regard, we’ve seen some nice Ford Focus RS models hit the auction block over the past few months, many of them commanding a premium in the process. That’s certainly likely to be true with this stellar 2016 Ford Focus RS as well, given how few miles it has on the odometer.
