The Ram 2500 is one of the most popular trucks on our forum, with recent offerings including this 1999, 2005 SLT, and 2021 Prospector XL. It’s a full-size synonymous with longevity, durability, and capability, and enjoys extensive aftermarket support from the likes of industry giant American Expedition Vehicles (AEV). It’s for these reasons and more that it is increasingly the platform of choice for serious travelers, providing the payload for a fully equipped camper or habitation box. It’s a favorite with our team and was subsequently featured in Overland Journal’s Full-size Truck of the Year and chosen as a Project Vehicle. If you’d like a better idea of how this chassis can be upfitted for exploration, check out inspiring builds from Rebel Outdoors, Trail Recon, and Epic Adventure Outfitters. Cue today’s low-mileage 2021 Ram 2500 Crew Cab (33,400 miles), which boasts a plethora of desirable upgrades and is topped with an Alum-Line flatbed.

From the Seller:
“Well cared for and clean. It was used to haul a flatbed camper. No accident history or damage with a clean title. The negatives: the tires are at about 50 percent tread, and the TPMS (“tire pressure monitor sensors”) dash light is on due to aftermarket sensors that don’t communicate with the truck. Otherwise, this truck is clean and ready to go.”
