Ram: We've Thought About a Cheap Truck Like The Slate 'A Million Times'

Even for someone like me, who doesn’t want, let alone need, a pickup, the idea of a cheap electric truck is certainly compelling. The tiny EV workhorse from a new company partially funded by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos will start at around $25,000. Factoring in the federal tax credit, assuming…

The Ram 1500 Express Is Back, and It's Surprisingly Cheap

When Ram launched the updated 1500 for the 2025 model year, things didn't go according to plan. Lower-spec trims were hard to come by, leaving buyers to choose between $70,000 trucks or something on the used market. As a result, Ram CEO Tim Kuniskis said the company got its ass…

I know I’ve railed against too-big batteries in trucks in the past, and that includes the all-electric version of this very vehicle.
