Last of the regular cab short bed

[Lsujker]

Just curious, who has a last year model 2022 regular cab short bed? Ram ended the classics production of the short bed according to my dealer. We are the minority now. Would love some pics and stories on why this truck?

END OF AN ERA! Ram Looks To Discontinue Regular Cab, Short Box Offering In 2023!

For the past four model years, if you needed to purchase a Regular Cab pickup from Ram you had to look no further than the Ram 1500 Classic (DS). While the fifth-generation Ram 1500 (DT) pickups never offered a Regular Cab model, the fourth-generation version picked up the slack.

It appears that Regular Cabs will only be sold as a Fleet Vehicle, in other words Commercial trucks
Commercial Vehicles are all Long Beds

IN about 60 days, everything new about Ram will be garbage, to my way of thinking

Correct but with the 8' box only. My dealer was unable to order the shorter box for 2023 or center console.

60 days is very specific. What do you know?

It was posted in the spring by another forum member that RCSB's were [then] to be discontinued in '22. And the forum member bought one while he could. If you're looking for one, now might be a good time to pick up a low mile used one, perhaps still under warranty (then extend the warranty).

Young guys (teenagers) I've talked to lately, many of them seem to be snapping back to liking RC trucks. They're not buyers yet, but we'll see if that translates into a market movement down the road. I think the RCSB truck will definitely be back. It's going to increase the value of your though.

yeah, but if they ever bring it back, it will likely have a Lithium battery

I wrote 60 days, because that will be mid October

That is when the Texas State Fair
Fri, Sep 29, 2023 – Sun, Oct 22, 2023
will end & Rams will soon after be on the showroom floors

Well, if it's a big batt it should go like the dickens! LOL (at least for a couple miles )

In warm climates only

can you imagine, having an E vehicle, no garage -20°F
& you need the vehicle in a emergency

i guess you could call your neighbor to borrow their Sled Dogs
