NEARLY FOURTEEN YEARS WITH ONE OWNER AND A HEMI THAT NEVER BROKE A SWEAT
Some trucks get used up. This one got looked after. This 2011 Ram 1500 Laramie Crew Cab 4x4 was sold new at Mid Valley Dodge in Grandview and stayed with its original owner for almost fourteen years, wandering no farther than Richland and averaging barely 7,000 easy miles a year. The CARFAX reads like a maintenance logbook: 36 service records covering clockwork oil changes, transmission fluid, front and rear differential service, coolant flushes, and spark plugs, right up through an oil change this spring under its second Tri-Cities owner. No accidents. No damage. A clean title guaranteed by CARFAX. Fifteen model years old, and it has only turned 107,124 miles.
The Laramie was the one you ordered when you wanted the ranch and the country club in the same truck. Heated leather bucket seats, a power sunroof, navigation, remote start for frosty Basin mornings, and the factory tow package for the boat or the trailer. Under the hood sits the engine that made believers out of everybody: the 5.7 liter HEMI V8 with variable valve timing and multi-displacement, wrapped in Deep Cherry Red Crystal Pearlcoat that still photographs like a truck half its age.
Climb in on a cold morning that the remote start has already handled, settle into heated leather, and point the HEMI at whatever needs doing. Gravel road to the duck blind, gooseneck full of hay, or just the long way home with the sunroof open, this is the era of Ram people hunt for, the proven 5.7 before everything went touchscreen, in the trim that spared nothing.
Low-mile HEMI Laramies with history like this surface once in a great while and leave fast. Come drive it at Archibald's in Kennewick while it is still here. A negotiable documentary service fee of $200.00 may apply to each purchase.
