Ram 1500 Classic keeps an estimated 67% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #192 of 684 cars VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Ram 1500 Classic retains an estimated 67% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #192 of 684 cars we track. That is 4 points above the 63% five-year average for Sedan in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Ram 1500 Classic sheds about 10% of its original MSRP in year one alone. From roughly $38,705 it falls to around $25,932 by year five — a five-year loss near $12,773, about $7.00 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Ram 1500 Classic bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
