When will the heavy-duty trucks have a complete redesign?

When will the heavy-duty trucks have a complete redesign? I saw a post somewhere that it could be as late as 2027. Does anyone have any further information on this? Thanks!

2027 is a lifetime away in car time. This is a highly competitive market featuring high margin products, you can bet that RAM isn’t going to wait 5 years. They won’t make it public until they want to promote a redesigned model, so anyone who says they know is really speculating.

Covid and supply chain drama has pushed off a lot of confirmed redesigns in cars and trucks.

I’ve read somewhere 2025 may be it. However, we are in interesting times with shortages predicted to run through 2023

They'll get redesigned about the time they get all the bugs worked out of the current design and we will do all the recalls and TSB's all over again.

If they put on the Ford style mirrors in 2023, I'll be ordering. @brv10

This summer I was starting to regret not ordering a 22. Then with all the issues, recall, and some unknowns on the UC5, I'm kinda glad I didn't.

I fear that the next gen shares the squashed front end of the current 1500. Front end is fugly.

I'm just speculating.

Hope not. This big burly front end is what makes the Rams look tough. I do agree that "euro" type styling is definitely becoming more common place.

I would be surprised to see the squashed front end, it would never clear the Cummins

It will clear the electric motor!

Ugh, I'm not looking forward to that

Likely Wont happen, they keep making the grills bigger to clear bigger rads….

 

[brv10]

We'll see!

under normal times i'd expect an interior redesign like they did for 19 to last around 5 years, which would put us at 23 for a new generation design. With Covid and shortages I think it is unlikely to see anything major til 25. JMO though.

Part of the reason I went with a 2500.

Front end just looks better, plain and simple.

I saw somewhere on Facebook or on a forum that a guy was asking about tonneau covers for his HD and the sales rep mentioned that they are already got the word to design covers for 2024 HD Rams. Did anyone come across this?
