2023 Ram 2500

The entry-level Tradesman trim comes with 17-inch steel wheels and a class V receiver hitch, making it perfect for those who need a reliable work truck. The Big Horn adds 18-inch wheels and heated and power-folding exterior mirrors, while the Laramie trim offers a dampened tailgate and power-telescoping exterior mirrors. Consider choosing the Power Wagon trim to get heated exterior side mirrors, remote keyless power door locks, 17-inch painted alloy wheels, and all-terrain tires. The Rebel trim boasts impressive off-road capabilities with 20-inch wheels and all-terrain tires, underbody protective skid plates, recovery hooks, LED headlights and fog lights, cab clearance lighting, a sport hood design, fender flares, and black exterior badging. Finally, the Limited Longhorn and Limited trims offer the most luxurious experience. For those who want the 2500 to feel more customized, Sport and Night special editions are available upgrades.

Under the hood, the RAM 2500 offers two engine options to choose from. The entry-level option is a 6.4-liter V-8 engine that generates 410 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque. This is a boastful amount of strength that is suitable for daily drives, work loads, and off-roading adventures. However, it may not be enough torque for what you're looking for. To get even more strength out of your 2023 Ram 2500, select the optional diesel engine. The 6.7-liter turbocharged diesel six-cylinder engine produces 850 pound-feet of torque and 370 horsepower.

The entry-level engine option pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission with automatic cylinder deactivation to save fuel, while the diesel engine options link to a six-speed automatic transmission. Both selections are smooth and easy to use, allowing drivers to focus on the path ahead rather than switching gears. Additionally, four-wheel drive is available as an optional upgrade for all trims, providing maximum traction and control.

Inside the RAM 2500, buyers can choose from three cab styles: the regular cab, the crew cab, and the mega cab. The regular cab accommodates three people with a front-row bench seat and 40.9 inches of legroom. The crew cab adds a second row with 40.2 inches of legroom, while the mega cab offers a more spacious second row with 43.1 inches of legroom. The entry-level display for the RAM 2500 features a 5-inch screen and a six-speaker stereo system. However, higher trims include a larger 12-inch tablet-style touchscreen, a 10-speaker stereo system, and a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, providing a premium audio and visual experience.

The Safety Group package offers advanced safety features such as blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning, lane-departure mitigation, forward collision mitigation, and adaptive cruise control. Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning helps ensure safer lane changes, while lane-departure mitigation helps drivers stay in their lane. Forward collision mitigation reduces the risk of a head-on crash, and adaptive cruise control allows drivers to operate the vehicle at a set speed while braking and accelerating with traffic, providing a more comfortable and stress-free driving experience.
