Today’s competition is extremely heated in the full-size pickup truck class. The 2021 Ram 1500 is widely considered to be the segment’s best, leading the class in nearly every aspect. Not only does the all-new Ram 1500 deliver a genuinely luxurious ride, but it also provides efficient fuel ratings for a vehicle of this size. Its excellent towing and hauling abilities further add to the appeal of this pickup, as do the features that are found exclusively on this model.
1. Fuel-Efficient Performance Options
Large pickups aren’t typically known for returning good gas mileage. This is largely due to their size and high-performance capabilities. Fortunately, the Ram 1500 offers buyers quite a few fuel efficiency options when choosing their powertrain.
Drivers interested in saving money at the pump should consider the HFE model. The HFE (High Fuel Economy) is powered by a V6 engine that is rated to achieve an EPA estimated 20 miles per gallon in the city and 26 miles per gallon on the highway. The available EcoDiesel engine works hard to improve the truck’s fuel economy even further, achieving an EPA estimated 22 miles per gallon in the city and 32 miles per gallon on the highway.
2. Best-In-Class Handling and Ride Quality
The Ram 1500 has the best ride quality of any vehicle in its class. It absorbs the bumps and dips of the road more like a luxury sedan than a large truck. This truck feels smooth even when conquering more rugged trails, which is why this pickup is such a great option for traveling. Drivers also love the sharp driving dynamics that make it simple to maneuver in crowded parking lots or drive up winding roads.
3. Exclusive Active-Level Four-Corner Air Suspension
Ram’s exclusive Active-Level Four-Corner Air Suspension is only available on the Ram 1500. This suspension system helps to balance the extra weight of a hefty load by automatically adjusting itself. This innovative feature results in a payload that feels much more stable. Drivers are also able to lower the suspension with the simple touch of a button to make accessing the cargo on the truck-bed more convenient.
4. Exclusive RamBox Cargo Management System
Ram’s exclusive RamBox Cargo Management System further elevates the Ram 1500’s place at the head of the leaderboard. It consists of lockable storage containers that have been integrated into the truck-bed itself. Store valuables, work tools, or fishing supplies securely out of the way.
These storage containers are also insulated, turning them into ice chests to keep beverages and snacks cool while camping, tailgating at sporting events, or on the worksite. A conveniently located 115-volt outlet is also included, making this truck-bed the most versatile and practical on the market.
These features, and many more, are quickly making the Ram 1500 a driver-favorite. This pickup excels in passenger comfort, interior quality, and modern amenities. Its driving dynamics and performance are among the best. Contact us today at Ourisman Chrysler Jeep Dodge of Alexandria for a test drive.
