2019 RAM 1500 Classic Warlock

The 2019 Ram 1500 Classic is the previous-generation pickup sold alongside the new model, offering a familiar, proven full-size truck with a lower starting price. It competes directly with the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Ford F-150, and GMC Sierra 1500, but stands apart with its coil-spring rear suspension for a smoother ride. The Classic drives with a composed, stable feel on the highway, and the available V8 provides confident passing power when loaded. Its coil-spring rear suspension delivers a noticeably more car-like ride than leaf-spring rivals, though heavy loads can make the rear feel a bit soft. Inside, the cabin is roomy and well-built, with a comfortable rear seat that makes it a practical family hauler as well as a work truck. The Warlock is the off-road-themed trim of the Classic line, giving you a tougher look and a factory lift over the Big Horn without stepping up to a more expensive model. Its 3.6L V6 makes 305 horsepower and pairs with four-wheel drive, which is enough for daily driving and light hauling, though you'll want the V8 if you tow often. The Warlock rides on unique wheels and all-terrain tires with a raised suspension, so expect a slightly firmer ride than other Classics in exchange for better off-road capability.
