2021 Ram 1500
The competition in the full-size pickup truck market is as hot as Phoenix in July, but the 2021 Ram 1500 stands out as a top choice for several compelling reasons. In addition to excellent performance, a luxurious ride, and unbeatable off-road capabilities, the Ram offers a fine selection of stylish and innovative trims. This year's model offers a few changes and upgrades, including an available snowplow preparation kit, standard forward collision warning, and the exciting TRX model. The addition of the TRX with its supercharged V8 engine is undoubtedly worthy of headline news. The Ram 1500 is off to a swift start, and it is already gaining points over the Ford F-150, which is of no surprise as the Ram is nearly flawless in every category. The Ram is a competent truck with plenty of power, performance, and a high-quality interior.
Performance
The Ram is offered with several engine choices, but all are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is standard across the board, and four-wheel drive is available as an option. The standard engine in the Ram 1500 is a 3.6-liter V6, which is supported by Ram's eTorque mild hybrid system for added off-the-line power. The standard engine offers 305 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque, and you can expect to get an estimated 20 MPG in the city and 25 MPG on the highway; those numbers are slightly lower on the four-wheel-drive models.
Features
The interior of the Ram 1500 is big, and you can expect outstanding luxury with all of the room you need to enjoy the ride. There is also a vast amount of storage space for all of the knick-knacks and electronics you bring along on your road adventures. Passengers are sure to appreciate the best-in-class legroom - all 45.2 inches of it.
The Uconnect infotainment system in the Ram is one of the best in the industry. A 5-inch touchscreen is standard, but you can also opt for the 8.4-inch touchscreen or the massive 12-inch HD display. The larger display screens come with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to enhance your driving experience in a safe manner. The 12-inch touchscreen boasts split-screen technology as well as a pinch and zoom feature.
