Performance

The Ram HD trucks stand out for their exceptional blend of power and efficiency, directed by a selection of potent engines tailored to various needs and preferences. At the heart of every model lies the robust 410-horsepower 6.4L V8 engine, delivering 429 pound-feet of torque, coupled with an outstanding eight-speed automatic transmission that enhances its performance credentials. This engine remains the exclusive choice for the Power Wagon model, known for its dedicated four-wheel drive prowess.

• Standard 410-horsepower 6.4L V8 with 429 pound-feet torque and eight-speed automatic 
• Optional 6.7L Cummins diesel inline-six, in two versions for different needs around La Porte, IN 
• Regular output: 370 horsepower, 850 pound-feet of torque (available in 2500 and 3500) 
• High-output version: 400 horsepower, a whopping 1075 pound-feet torque (exclusive to 3500)

While the Power Wagon strictly embraces the V8 setup, other models offer versatility with the 6.7L Cummins diesel inline-six engine in either rear- or four-wheel drive configurations. The diesel variant comes in two forms - a standard output suitable for both the 2500 and 3500 models and a high-output version exclusive to the 3500, pushing the limits with 1075 pound-feet of torque. Despite rivals moving towards more modern 10-speed transmissions, Ram trusts in its six-speed automatic to manage the immense power and torque efficiently, affirming its commitment to delivering sturdy and dependable performance across its heavy-duty truck lineup.

Equipped with the formidable high-output Cummins engine delivering 1075 pound-feet of torque, the Ram 3500 boasts impressive capabilities, with a towing limit of 37,090 pounds and a maximum payload capacity of 7,680 pounds.

Additionally, the 2500 4x4 Crew Cab equipped with the 370-horsepower Cummins variant achieves a payload capacity of 3,240 pounds and a towing capability of 16,870 pounds.

• Premium materials across various trim levels
• Exclusive striped wood and gold accents adorn the dashboard, doors, and gauges in the top-tier Longhorn trim 
• A distinct Longhorn logo, meticulously hand-branded onto the wood of the truck's upper glovebox door

The cabin's thoughtful design isn't just about looks; it integrates user-friendly controls and an abundance of storage solutions. A highlight is the multilevel center console, spacious enough to house a 15.0-inch laptop. To enhance the cabin's tranquility, every Ram HD model is equipped with standard acoustic glass and active noise cancellation integrated with the audio system. This innovative feature ensures that even the diesel variants achieve a level of quietude that one would expect from a luxury car, setting a new standard for truck interiors.

Technology

Ram HD trucks impress with their advanced in-cabin technologies, easily rivaling the offerings found in high-end luxury vehicles. The trucks are equipped with an intuitive infotainment system that stands out for its simplicity and quick response to inputs. Standard is an 8.0-inch touchscreen, perfectly positioned for ease of use, with the option to upgrade to a striking 12.0-inch reconfigurable touchscreen that elevates the cabin's futuristic ambiance when driving around Valparaiso.
