We just bought a 2013 ram Laramie longhorn and there isn't a CD player. Can a factory CD still be installed?

The CD player is an option from the factory on these trucks. Mine is in the bottom glovebox in the center of the 2 front bucket seats.

A less expensive option would be to buy a 64 GB SD card or USB key, and rip your CD's to it. Pop it into your center console, and you're good to go. You'll fit at least 2500 CDs in 64GB.

I just have a subscription to Google Music All-Access. All the songs I want available pretty much anywhere I am.

As mentiuoned above, I think the CD is remote.
If I bought a Laramie Longhorn package and it did not have a CD player, I would be having a talk with the person that sold it to me.

CD's are dead technology. The amount of music you can get on a thumb drive has pretty much killed it.

I have a thumbdrive and hate it. Is there one i can buy that i can search thru by artist , song, etc..?? I have to scroll thru in alphabetical order thru each artist and each of the songs in order.. example it takes FOREVER to get from alan jackson to merle haggard. So is there a drive that works with the trucks menu buttons??

I absolutly demanded my truck have a CD player or NO SALE!! After two days I havent touched the cd player. I loaded an SD card with about 800 songs and I havent looked back. I agree with the list starting in alphabetical order sucking. But once I start it I select shuffle and Im happy.

I also cant believe a Long Horn package left this simple option out.
My Big horn has it as mentioned in the lower section of the center console. If you have the 6 passenger truck if you have the 5 passenger then its in the upper section of the ceter console. Either way Mine is never used and I HAD TO HAVE IT!!!.

I didn't realize I had a CD player till I found it under that middle seat storage in the front bench seat. Also if you put in a thumb drive and it is recognized in the memory you can use the voice activated stuff and say play AWOLNATION.
