My 2011 ram had 4auto 4hi 4lo and it's works exactly the way as my 21 new body style ram

How about the less expensive, better value trucks instead of lower end? I have a 2018 2500 Tradesman that is worth a tuck under what I paid for it brand new in 2019 and don't have $800 payments (actually no payment). Plus it has every option I wanted and tows much more than the "higher end" trucks.
I have a tradesman as well for the price cant beat it these days. Not paying $70,000 + on a ram
I'm not understanding your comment. A Tradesman is a RAM.
I wanted a crew cab standard box truck without E torque. There was no standard box crew cab trucks anywhere on lots by me unless you went into the 2500 / 3500 territory. I originally was going to get a 5th gen bighorn but only 2023 orders were open and e torque and auto start stop was mandatory. Went with the tradesman classic and ended up saving a lot of money and still got a truck with a regular v8 and no auto start stop and a ‘key’ I like my leather seats and full center console but am happy with what I got.
If I could have added 4x4 to mine and got it for $45k, I'd have done that in a heartbeat.
That’s all that matters man is that you are happy. Just to be clear with my prior post, it was in no way a dig at anyone. Dude honestly all I cared about was getting a hemi, crew cab, heated seats for wife and kids, and the upgraded radio. You can keep the rest of the **** I have in the 1500 sport. Is it cool to use but I really can do
No offense taken on my end, I did get the heated seats on the cloth bench seat set up with the cold climate package I think it was but they are the weakest s h y t t i e s t seats I ever experienced.
I am not happy with how much I spent on a tradesman, but at the same time it is a 4x4 and crew cab which made the price jump high, and I added pretty much every option I could get with it. I have a $50,000 tradesman LOL. Still a better looking, more powerful and optioned truck vs the other 2 big names though for what you get. So I am happy in the end. Just lost a lot of money as soon as I pulled off the lot. This was a build and wait truck for me. Nothing on the lots came close.
I had a little sticker shock too, and I purposely ordered mine with almost no options because I need the towing and cargo capacity. I had a Silverado, which I was very happy with, and I was going to go with their 2500 but neither Chevy or Ford would let me order a truck. I had to take what was available on the lot, and everything was way more truck - bells and whistles-wise - than I needed or wanted to pay for. RAM was the only one that would let me order what I wanted, so that's the reason I went with them. Not that I don't think RAM is fine, it just wasn't my #1 choice. The only options I got were tow hooks, the spray-in bedliner, anti-spin rear end, and 5th-wheel prep package and I still had to pay more than $45k.
