I saw this posted somewhere, the 2018’s style will be produced in 2019 as ‘classic’

Yes, you are correct, just was not aware they were going to do it so soon. Wonder what badging changes they will do

Makes me wonder if they undersold so many 2018’s they missed projections and now have a parts surplus!

2019 Classics get this fender badge.

There was a good write up about it on Moparinsiders too: https://moparinsiders.com/ram-trucks-adds-classic-name-to-out-going-trucks-for-2019/

Yep, they are right on time. Just surprised me

That is an awful build...

ST Express with a V6.

Yeah they're going to be sitting on that for awhile.

I've found several aftermarket sites don't distinguish between the New 1500 and the Classic 1500. In researching running board, one site (I believe it was CARiD--but could be someone else) went from no "2019 Quad Cab" compatible boards to about 15 overnight due to adding the Classic model. Confirming fitment will be challenging for another year or so.

We have been getting many of the classics in lately. V6's shipped in first just now starting to get the hemi's. As stated the only change is the classic badge. When we get repair orders to do PDI's its hard to tell if we are going to find a 5th gen or a classic until we get the key.

I'm currently driving a 2019 Classic Edition Bighorn I think... its pretty much the same truck, but the AC is rather weak... noticeably so compared to the wife's '16 Sport lemon... wonder if they went with a new blower manufacturer on the 2019s...

If yours is a loaner...::firmly puts on a conspiracy hat:: they could have purposely degraded the loaner A/C, so that the new 2019’s with decent but not great A/C’s suddenly feel much better in comparison, and present the illusion of working great in perspective.
