Showing results 1 - 24 of 474
474 Dodge Ram lots for sale across 171+ Copart locations – model years 1994–2015, avg. mileage 191,000 mi. 32% clean title, 63% salvage; Front End is the top damage (39%). Bids start at $200, and recent Dodges sold for a median winning bid around $2,100 before fees across the make.
This listing covers the Dodge-badged Ram – the pickups built before Ram split off as its own brand in 2010, so think 3rd-generation trucks from the early 2000s through the last Dodge-badged 2010 models. Across the make a recent Dodge sold for a median winning bid near $2,100 before fees, most between $1,200 and $4,750 before fees, but a Ram with a good Cummins diesel or a straight 4x4 frame regularly clears well above that – the pool here is small and skews toward buyers who know exactly what they're bidding on. Front-end damage leads at 26% make-wide, and on a heavy truck like this, mechanical and undercarriage damage turn up more than they would on a car. Most stay in the US with rebuilders and tow-rig buyers, picked up locally or shipped in-country.
These are body-on-frame trucks, so the frame rails come first – check for rust-through and kinks before you even look at the cab, especially on trucks that spent winters up north. Under the hood, the 5.9 Cummins turbo-diesel in the 2500 and 3500 is the engine most buyers are chasing; it's a tough motor, but check the injectors and lift pump on higher-mileage examples and confirm the VIN matches an unmolested emissions setup. The gas 4.7 V8 sludges up fast on a neglected oil-change schedule, so an unclear service history is a real red flag; the 5.7 HEMI, introduced partway through this generation, is the safer gas pick. Watch for a worn rear axle and sagging leaf springs on trucks that hauled or towed hard for years. If the cab or bed is too far gone, a good Cummins or HEMI drivetrain alone can justify the bid on a non-repairable Ram lot.
Buying is quick: register free – no dealer license – set a maximum bid and the system bids for you up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then arrange pickup, US delivery or export; we handle the paperwork.

FAQ
What condition are these Rams in?
About 474 lots, 63% on a salvage title and the rest clean or rebuilt. Front End is the most common damage, and mileage averages 191,000 on these Dodge-badged trucks from before the 2010 Ram brand split.
Is a salvage Dodge Ram worth buying?
Often yes if the frame is straight and the drivetrain checks out – Cummins diesel trucks especially hold value even wrecked. Across the make a recent Dodge sold for a median winning bid near $2,100 before fees, but a good Ram can clear well above that. A rusted-through frame or a diesel with unknown injector history is where the math stops working.
What should I check before bidding?
Frame rails first, for rust and kinks. Then the drivetrain: injectors and lift pump on the 5.9 Cummins, sludge history on the 4.7 V8, and the rear axle and leaf springs on any truck that towed hard. Cross-check the title brand against the damage photos.
Can I insure and register a salvage Ram?
Not while it's still salvage. You register and insure it only after it's rebuilt and passes a state inspection; once re-titled rebuilt, most insurers will write it – just not the company that totaled it. Check with your insurer before you bid.
How does the auction work?
Register free, no dealer license needed. Set a maximum bid and the system bids for you up to that cap, or take a truck at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
How do I check a Ram's history before bidding?
Every lot lists the VIN, damage type and title brand. Run the VIN through a vehicle-history report for prior accidents, commercial use and title events before you commit.
What are good alternatives to the Ram?
The current Ram 1500 is the direct descendant once the brand split off, and the Chevy Silverado and Ford F-150 cover the same half-ton class.
