Ram takes $500 off select current-model-year vehicles for police officers, firefighters, EMTs and paramedics. You request an authorization number on Ram’s first responder page, then show the code at a franchised dealer when you buy or lease. The $500 comes off at the dealership, so nothing happens online beyond getting the code.
Ram calls it a Bonus Cash Allowance, and it applies to the purchase or the lease. It only covers the models Ram lists, so check your truck or van against that list before you drive to the dealer.
How To Get The Ram First Responder Discount
- Open Ram’s first responder page and click Get Authorization Number.
- Enter the basic eligibility details the third-party verification service asks for.
- Copy the authorization number you’re given.
- Take it to a franchised dealer in the United States and show it when you buy or lease an eligible vehicle.
Who Qualifies
Ram names police and law enforcement officers, firefighters and EMT workers. On the law enforcement side that includes police officers, sheriffs and their deputies, correctional officers, state troopers, federal law enforcement officers and 911 operators and dispatchers. Firefighters can be career or volunteer, and the medical group is EMTs and paramedics. Ram adds that in certain cases spouses of first responders are also eligible, but it doesn’t spell out which cases, so if you’re applying as a spouse, ask a dealer or the verification service before you count on it.
Which Vehicles Count
The offer is valid on the current-model-year Ram 1500 DT including RHO, the Ram ProMaster including the electric version, the Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups and the Ram 3500, 4500 and 5500 chassis cabs. A vehicle that isn’t on that list isn’t covered, and neither is an older model year than the ones Ram names. The code has to be shown at the time of the retail purchase or lease, so get it before you sign, not after.
Ram’s sister brands have their own first responder pages here too: Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep. Each brand’s page lists its own models and terms, so read the one for the vehicle you’re shopping.
