2020 Ram 2500
Just like with any other vehicle, if you are interested in a pickup, it is important to choose the right truck that has everything you need. If you want more power than you are likely to find in a standard full-size model, without going quite as far as the most powerful ones available, then the 2020 Ram 2500 is a fantastic choice. This is a heavy-duty pickup that is the perfect middle road for a full-size model, giving you more power than a standard 1500, without delivering quite as much as something like the Ram 3500.
Performance
You have two different engines to choose from with the 2020 Ram 2500. This gives you the perfect blend of flexibility without offering so many options that you can feel like you are missing out by not picking a particular engine. You have either a gas or a diesel engine to choose from, so it really comes down to what you are looking for. The engine you choose has a major impact on the maximum towing and payload you get, so keep that in mind as you consider all of your options. For maximum towing, you are going to want to choose the available 6.7L Cummins Turbo Diesel engine, which has a maximum towing capacity of up to 19,680 lbs, when paired with a regular cab and 4x2 drivetrain. The lowest available towing with this engine is 15,690 lbs if you get it with a mega cab. Even with the 6.4L HEMI V8 engine, you can still get up to 17,540 lbs of towing capacity with the proper configuration.
Interior
As you would expect, a number of features are standard or available depending on the trim level you choose. The starting trim, the Tradesman, includes standard air conditioning, a 3-inch driver information display, and a urethane steering wheel. It has a 5-inch infotainment display, a standard 4-speaker sound system, and includes a compass and temperature display in the radio system. The Tradesman has standard vinyl seating with manual adjust and keyless, push-button start functionality, perfect for a no-frills work truck.
Safety
Available safety features on the Ram 2500 include blind spot monitoring with rear cross-path detection, which helps keep you safe when backing up or if someone approaches you and likes to hide in your blind spot. There is also an available full-speed forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, which alerts you when a collision seems imminent and can apply the brakes to minimize damage or even avoid a collision. Adaptive cruise control is available so you can use it even in high-traffic situations where it will maintain a safe distance with other vehicles for you.
