5thGenRams has used Rams build and price tool to build comparably equipped Laramie, Longhorn and Limited models to see where the pricing stacks up. The results are definitely interesting. All trucks were equipped with the 4×4 Off-road package which excluded the 22″ wheel option on all models, this also excluded the black package on the Laramie but still allowed for the Sport package. All trucks were also equipped with the 5.7 Hemi with eTorque, Tow package, 3.92 axle ratios, 33 gallon tank, air suspensions 12 inch UConnect systems and block heaters.

The Longhorn was the surprise of the group to me as it technically sits below the Limited. We started with a Crew Cab 4×4 with the 6’4 bed (Starting MSRP of $56,835 with destination) and added: 4×4 off road package, 5.7 Hemi with eTorque, Tow package, 3.92 axle ratio, 33 gallon tank, air suspension, block heater, level 1 equipment group, advanced safety group, bed utility group, Ivory tri coat paint, tri fold tonneau cover and the panoramic sunroof. This brought the options total to $13,195 bringing total MSRP to $68,775 or $1,790 more than the Laramie Limited.

An optioned out 2018 Sierra Denali can reach an MSRP of $68,080 before any factory accessories.
