<br />In another obvious sign of the times, Dodge is launching its brand new and totally redesigned 2009 Ram half-ton pickup truck with <a href="http://www.autonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080922/ANA06/809220389/1178/rss01&amp;rssfeed=rss01">incentives</a> right out of the gate. Purchasers who only need a regular cab will get $500 off the Ram's base price of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/13/2009-dodge-ram-priced-from-22-170/">$22,170</a> before options while those looking to get a quad cab or crew cab will get double that amount off their new truck. We're sure that potential buyers won't be complaining, but it's a far cry from the 40% savings being offered on '08 Rams. We verified these numbers by using <a href="http://www.dodge.com/en/2009/ram_1500">Dodge's</a> online configuration tool, which does not yet allow you to order up the innovative RamBox option. That lockable storage unit is built right into the bed rail of the pickup and will <a href="http://www.autonews.com/article/20080922/ANA06/809220373/1197/rss01&amp;rssfeed=rss01">reportedly</a> run you $1,850. That seems pretty reasonable considering that Dodge is the only brand offering this type of storage solution. Still not sold? Did you know that a RamBox is nearly big enough to <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/06/28/video-mike-levine-attemts-to-fit-himself-in-the-dodge-rambox/">fit an adult man</a>? Pretty cool, that. Expect to see the RamBox option come online in early November.<br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/">2009 Dodge Ram</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/04/09ds_std_cab_st_6ft_box_trx_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/01/dg009_002rm_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/01/dg009_003rm_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/01/dg009_004rm_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/01/dg009_005rm_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br />[Source: <a href="http://www.autonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080922/ANA06/809220389/1178/rss01&amp;rssfeed=rss01">Automotive News</a> - sub. req'd]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/09/22/2009-dodge-ram-launches-with-incentives-rambox-costs-1-895/">2009 Dodge Ram launches with incentives, 'RamBox' costs $1,895 </a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Mon, 22 Sep 2008 10:29:00 EST.

Though fuel prices have indeed dropped a bit in the last few weeks, consumers surely still have cash registers ringing in their heads when thinking of large V8 engines and four-wheel drive. So, to ease the newest Ram into the market, Dodge has decided to lower its price a bit compared to the outgoing model while also adding some unique and heretofore unavailable content to the mix. The dealings will start at $22,170 for base models with the regular cab, $26,225 for Quad Cab models and $32,530 for Dodge's first-ever Crew 1500 models. Opting for a top-end Laramie Ram Crew 1500 4x4 will cost you $44,140, which is on par with other top-of-the-line competitors from Ford and GM. Engine options include a revised 390-horse 5.7-liter HEMI, which will allow the quickest Ram to make it to 60 mph in less than six seconds, while a 310-horsepower 4.7-liter V8 and an anemic 3.7-liter V6 with just 215 horses on tap brings up the rear. See the full pricing breakdown after the break.<br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/">2009 Dodge Ram</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/04/09ds_std_cab_st_6ft_box_trx_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/01/dg009_002rm_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/01/dg009_003rm_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/01/dg009_004rm_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-dodge-ram-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/01/dg009_005rm_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br />[Source: Chrysler LLC]<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/13/2009-dodge-ram-priced-from-22-170/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>2009 Dodge Ram priced from $22,170</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/13/2009-dodge-ram-priced-from-22-170/">2009 Dodge Ram priced from $22,170</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Wed, 13 Aug 2008 12:59:00 EST.
