Bed sizes are 5-foot-7-inches or six-foot-four-inches. Two cap sizes include the crew cab and the club cab. The crew cab can carry six people. Trim levels include Tradesman, HFE, Big Horn, Rebel, Laramie, Longhorn, and Limited.
The tradesman is the most basic truck, and the HFE adds a smaller engine. The Big Horn adds some features and capabilities for a nicer truck. The Rebel is the sporty off-road version. Laramie adds useful details, like electrical outlets and an 8.4-inch touchscreen. The Longhorn adds some luxuries. Limited is the fully loaded truck that provides all of the amenities of a full-size luxury sedan.
The 12-inch touchscreen for the infotainment center is very impressive. The standard 8.4-inch screen is very good, and the 12-inch one makes it amazing. Smartphone integration is standard now at top trims. It also has several USB ports. Android and Apple Carplay are now standard.
Blind Spot monitoring and cross traffic alert systems are available at the upper trim levels. Parking assist sensors, forward collision warning, and emergency braking are also available at the highest trim level. Lane departure warning is standard at the highest level and available on most trims. A voice control system can operate many functions inside the Ram.
This is where the Ram really shines. The Ram has a payload of between 1500 and 2300 pounds, depending on the configuration you get. That is better than any other truck in its class. It's towing capacity is also very impressive, going from 7,500 pounds up to as much as 12,000.
The base engine is a 3.6-liter V8 that cranks out 306 horsepower. There is a 5.7-liter V8 that utilizes a hemi to generate 395 horsepower. There is also a 5.7-liter V8 that has E-Torque that has even more towing capacity.
The hemi-equipped engine makes this truck a solid performer. In addition to strong towing and payload capacities, it can move fast. The Ram can get to 60 mph in 6.6 seconds and can stop from 60 mph in 132-feet not loaded. This truck can get 20-25 miles per gallon.
Dodge has a unique coil-spring suspension system that is different than most trucks. This gives it a smooth ride even with the lowest trim levels. It is one of the most comfortable trucks out there to ride or drive. This also allows the Ram to increase riding comfort without sacrificing power. There is plenty of room inside, so there is a lot of leg room and head room for most sizes of passengers.
You may get a two-tone or a single-tone. The two-tone combines silver metalic clear coat with various shades of green, blue, white and red. There are 11 single tone colors, which are variations of white, gray, green, blue and red. Leather seats are available at higher levels. There is also a fair amount of wood trim. The interior will be either black or indigo-frost at the highest trim level.
