Analysis
Nothing wrong with the truck; everything wrong with the price. This 2024 Ram 1500 Tradesman crew cab 4×4 lists at $35,256 with 15,420 miles — squarely at market for a new-generation Tradesman, not a dollar under it. New 2024 Tradesmans were advertised with $10k+ discounts off MSRP, so the used market has barely any daylight under new pricing. The truck itself is fine: the DT platform, 3.6L V6 with eTorque, and the crew/4×4 combo that holds value best. But buy-or-moosed is about the deal, and there is no deal here — just a fair price. MOOSED: shop it against discounted new inventory or wait for a real markdown.
