Looking to buy a new 2025 off the lot if I can snag a deal or order a new 2026 if I can’t get where I want to be. If I order, can I choose if my tailgate has the RAM head or the RAM lettering? I had a 2021 Limited and it was the RAM head. Now all the Limiteds seems to have the lettering. Any ideas?
 
Idk about the 2026 but on the 25’ the Ram head only comes on the multi function tailgate. The Ram lettering is on everything else. I’m not a fan of the lettering which is why I went with a black truck. It doesn’t stand out as much.
 
Well, that’s too bad because I don’t like the letters either. I wonder if they’ll change it for 2026. I’m getting black anyhow so I guess that will help if I do end up with the lettering. Maybe I can find one with MFT.
 
This is actually a full half the reason I’m looking for the MFT option (other half being the utility of course).

The alternative is adding the words
“Please do not”
Just above the giant emblem.
 
Is it specifically the word "RAM" that is the problem? Truck makers have been putting the brand name on the tailgate for decades. CHEVROLET, FORD, and DODGE have been plastered across the tailgates of many trucks over the years. I will agree that the chrome version is ugly as hell but if it's black I'm fine with it.

Thanks for the input. I just prefer the logo over the letters. I like the logo actually. Feel it gives a meaner more menacing look that I would be trying to achieve.

I have no problem with black lettering. The chrome is a bit too much for me. I thought the RAM head logo was a perfect alternative. Much cleaner looking. I liked it better on the front grill as well in place of the RAM letters like on the 4th gens.

Get the one with the letters, remove the letters, have the setting holes filled, repaint. Now that’s perfection. I personally hate the fact that the Ram lettering, and or logo, is found on about 30 places on these trucks. It’s just too much. When you really look and see how many times it’s there, it’s quite ridiculous.
