What are the Experts Saying?

If you want to hear it straight from the mouth of some of the best in the business, they can’t get enough of the powerful and comfortable RAM 1500. Just a few of the RAM 1500 reviews available say:

Car and Driver: “Inside, the Ram 1500 has supremely functional cubby stowage and cavernous passenger space. Higher trims add upscale materials and creature comforts that make the Ram feel more like a luxury vehicle than a pickup truck. Most models can be equipped with upscale features such as heated and ventilated seats and a panoramic sunroof, while the fanciest versions have premium leather surfaces and genuine wood accents. As with most full-size pickup trucks, the Ram 1500’s crew cab is supremely spacious.”

Kelly Blue Book: “Against the best-selling Ford F-150 and GM Silverado/Sierra twins, the 2021 Ram 1500 pickup more than holds its own. It’s a handsome pickup, and it’s far more modern (inside and out) than the Toyota Tundra or Nissan Titan … On a different performance planet entirely is the new-for-2021 Ram TRX. Ford’s Raptor had been the undisputed king of off-road pickups for more than a decade, but the Ram TRX sends it home with its tail between its fangs. Meet the world’s quickest and most powerful quarter-ton pickup. Ever. Under the hood is the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 from Dodge’s Hellcat muscle cars producing 702 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. The whine of its supercharger is as intoxicating as its V8 growl.”
