This is likely an unpopular topic, but an elder family member is not a fan of the new “RAM” grills. And so, as he seeks a new 5th gen truck, he’s hoping to find one with the classic crosshairs and ram head logo.

There seemed to be a lot of posts about people trying to put 5th gen grills on 4th gen, but not the other way around.

Is this even possible? Has anyone seen a 5th gen trim that still carries that grill? Has anyone seen OEM crosshairs grills that would fit the 5th gen trucks?(Shopping from Canada)

Cheers

Buy a 2024 classic if that's what they want, if they special order they can still get most of the convenience features such as heated seats, moon roof, 12 inch display even though it is a Tradesman. No 5th gens have crosshair grills and to my knowledge there are no aftermarket ones available.

I'm with you here - picking up a steal of a 2022 big horn, but love the cross hairs and hate the new grill. looking to see if there is one out there.

Haha no there are no 5th gen models which have the cross hair grille. The cross hair grille is a Dodge thing. These Ram trucks haven't been Dodges since 2009.

I've never seen an aftermarket cross hair grille for a 5th gen 1500. If you really want a cross hair grille you'll need to do what was already suggested and go with a 1500 Classic.
