A Powerful Workhorse

The Ram 1500 is one of the best vehicles for work because it's built to last. It has an impressive towing capacity, and many features make it easy to use on a job site.

The Ram 1500 comes with a 3.6-liter V6 gas engine that produces 305 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque. This engine comes with an 8-speed automatic transmission that improves fuel economy with higher MPG compared to previous models.

You can also opt for the 5.7-liter HEMI V8 engine, which delivers 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque and helps increase payload capacity by up to 1,000 pounds over the V6 engine option.

Ram 1500 models are available in various load-carrying configurations, including the Tradesman, SLT, Big Horn/Lone Star, Laramie/Laramie Longhorn, and the Limited Edition. Each trim level has a unique set of standard features and available options.

The Ram 1500 is equipped with air suspension, which automatically adjusts the height of the truck's wheels for optimal driving. This technology benefits off-roading and everyday driving on rough terrain and uneven surfaces.

You can raise or lower your truck's ride height with air suspension at a button. You can also set your vehicle to adjust tire pressure based on conditions and terrain, which minimizes rolling resistance and improves fuel economy.

Dependable Safety and Security for Any Job

The Ram 1500 offers high-quality safety and security features. The truck comes standard with advanced safety features such as forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, trailer sway control, and blind spot monitoring.

Your Ram 1500 can be equipped with an array of driver assistance technologies that work together to provide a safe driving environment. These include adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning with lane keep assist, and front and rear park assist.

These systems are designed to help drivers stay focused on the road ahead by reducing the need to glance away from the road to perform simple tasks like changing lanes or parking.

The available rear view camera with trailer hitch assist is an excellent feature for any driver who tows a trailer. The backup camera shows you what's behind you while you're backing up, and the trailer hitch assist helps you stay straight while towing.

The Roll Stability Control feature uses wheel speed sensors, a yaw sensor, and other sensors to detect when it begins to slide sideways, at which point it applies brakes to individual wheels to correct this behavior before it becomes dangerous.

Comfortable Interior for Your Workday

The Ram 1500 has a refined cabin that's well-suited to long days on the road. The front seats are comfortable, and the rear bench seat is spacious. The Ram 1500 has a rubber floor mat in the cargo area to protect your cargo from dirt and scratches.

The dashboard is simple and clean, with a handsome wood trim that adds to the upscale feel of the cabin. There are plenty of storage compartments, including a large center console, to keep your belongings organized.

The Ram 1500 offers a well-appointed cabin with plenty of amenities that make long workdays more comfortable. This truck has excellent sound insulation, so you won't be distracted by outside noise while driving on busy highways.

You can also get a ton of tech in your Ram. You can get an 8-inch touchscreen display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 7-inch digital cluster display, and dual-zone automatic climate control.

Rugged Design with Towing and Cargo Space

The Ram 1500 is the best truck for towing and hauling in its class. The truck can tow up to 9,200 pounds and has 25.6 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seat, and 57.1 cubic feet with the seat folded down.

All Ram 1500 models get a heavy-duty rear axle with locking differentials for added traction on slippery surfaces like snow or mud. And all trucks come with front tow hooks to help stabilize your vehicle when pulling something heavy behind it.

From the bold front fascia with signature crosshair grille to the muscular rear fenders, the Ram 1500 is ready to do the job. Engineered to handle the most demanding terrain, you'll find strength and durability in every vehicle.

The Ram 1500 is available in three cab styles: Regular Cab, Crew Cab, or Quad Cab. Regular Cabs feature two full-size doors and offer seating for up to three passengers.

Crew Cabs feature four full-size doors, seating for up to five passengers, and more interior space than Regular Cabs. With Quad Cabs, you get four full-size doors and extra headroom and legroom for rear passengers compared with Crew Cab models.
