Car financing: the 2021 Ram 1500 TRX
No 2021 Ram 1500 TRX is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page helps you judge the 2021 Ram 1500 TRX before you buy one anywhere.
What to check on the 1500
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. There are 15 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Under the hood
The 6.2L 8-cylinder supercharged, paired with an 8-speed automatic, drives it. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Four-wheel drive helps on rough ground and deep snow; on dry roads it behaves like any other vehicle.
It is rated at 19.8 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 59 litres. Every 100 km costs about $34.65 in fuel at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$6,850 a year for 15,000 miles.
Inside and out
Being a pickup truck, it trades parking ease for a cargo bed.
Who it is for
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the 1500 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. If the 1500 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the 1500 for a week and see how it fits your life.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $346.50 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Narrowing it down
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
