The Dodge Ram 1500 has been named the 2019 MotorTrend Truck of the Year, and for good reason. Automotive reviewers rave about the smooth dynamic driving and luxurious cabin of this truck. Also, the solid fuel economy feature gives you more incentive to love this light-duty truck.

Specs on Efficiency and Fuel Economy

The 2020 Ram 1500 features a legendary 395-horsepower 5.7-liter Hemi V8 that creates a huge 410 pound-feet of torque. Since it is armed with the 5.7-liter Hemi and an eight-speed automatic transmission, the front-wheel drive Ram 1500 will make 15mpg in city and 22mpg on highway. The extra muscle can be used for towing up to 12,750 pounds.

The Ram 1500 will return up to 26mpg when fitted with a V6 engine. EcoDiesel engine choice further enhances performance. And the combined average of some car journalists is a 26mpg during mixed driving. The V8-equipped models don’t need to produce more than 23 mpg.

No other truck in the segment has the load-leveling air suspension provided by Ram. This feature makes cargo a breeze to bring. This gives the Ram 1500 in particular a surprisingly solid feel at highway speeds.

Entertainment, Interior and Safety Features

The 2020 Ram 1500 invites you into one of the segment’s most spacious cabins. There are also luxury upgrades, including rear seats with heated and ventilated reclining seats.

While the base model comes nicely fitted, there are plenty of premium options. Most people would be interested in the split-screen 12inch touch panel. It promises to leave you impressed with its impressive graphics and high-resolution navigation charts. In addition, a Harman Kardon 900-watt sound system is offered.

The Ram 1500 no longer suffers from a lack of accident-avoidance technology. Some of the highlights include automatic emergency braking, blind-spot warning and the signal for lane departure. The Ram 1500 provides a surround-view camera and self-parking feature for drivers who hate the parking car mission.

Recently Dodge has revamped the heavy-duty Ram 2500 to keep up with the competition.
You’ll observe a more muscular body immediately. Plus, new headlights help add a more futuristic look to the current 2500.

Specs on Efficiency and Fuel Economy

The 2020 Ram 2500 features two engines. A 6.4-liter, 410-horsepower, Hemi V8 engine comes standard. However though the EPA does not mention figures of fuel economy for heavy duty trucks, the new eight-speed automatic transmission from Ram 2500 aims to increase performance.

If you need superior performance in towing and transporting, upgrade to the Cummings diesel engine. A powerful 370 horsepower and 850lb-ft torque is rated to crank out. The diesel-powered Ram 2500 would be able to pull nearly 20,000 pounds if called up.

This truck is impressive on the road with its effortless acceleration and smooth handling. The heavy-duty workhouse can withstand rugged terrain as well. Adventure seekers will enjoy the Power Wagon model which is ready for the road. It comes fitted with a lot of off-road equipment including improved shock absorbers and additional protection against underbody.

Entertainment, Interior and Safety Features

Unlike the light-duty Ram 1500, the Ram 2500 provides plenty of space to spread out. Unique black leather upholstery makes Small range-topping trim look especially luxurious.

Also the base model comes loaded with common features such as a 5-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth and a 3.5-inch display of driver detail. In addition to these basic features several updates are available. Those include a 17-speaker sound system, and impressive Uconnect infotainment monitor of 12inches.

The Ram 2500 now provides active safety features, as opposed to previous versions. Blind-spot detection reduces the stress of driving on busy highways, forward collision alert prepares you to brake for obstacles. A 360-degree parking camera is also available, in addition to these features.

The 2020 Ram 3500 is basically a version of the Ram 2500, but more powerful. Unlike her sister, she now brings more elegance and a larger range of luxury features. While the Ram 3500 can perform an off-road trip, its lineup does not include an ultra-rugged Power Wagon package.

Specs on Efficiency and Fuel Economy

The new Ram 3500 comes standard with a familiar 6.4-liter, Hemi V8 engine. This generates a powerful 410 horsepower and a torque of 429 pound-feet.

Unlike the Ram 2500, the Ram 3500 provides a variant of the Cummings diesel engine with high performance. Dodge personally tuned it to pump out 400 horsepower and a crushing torque of 1,000lb-ft. You can trust to tow over 35,000 pounds on this beast.

A more stable suspension and optional dual rear wheels help the Ram 3500 handle the extra weight.

Entertainment, Indoor and Safety Feature

Although the Ram 3500 is constructed for carrying huge loads, driving is still a pleasure. You’ll love its quiet ride and its easy seats. Wide windows also facilitate great access to the outside. Great passenger and cargo capacity make the Ram 3500 a vehicle for the work crew even more satisfying.

Drivers searching for a truck to operate consistently, would be more than satisfied with the optional equipment list of the Ram 3500. Upper trims, however, look more like a luxury sedan than a heavy-duty pickup. Upgrades, such as seat ventilation and a large-screen infotainment system, make you really enjoy your on-road time.

In addition, the Ram 3500 gives you access to innovative safety features such as adaptive cruise control and blind-spot surveillance.

Only Feelings

As you can see, the new lineup of pickups from Dodge Ram is bringing a great deal to the table. Although you can be saving more time at the pump by the light-duty Ram 1500, the heavy-duty versions are designed to work much harder. Take your pick.
