Here's the 2013 Dodge Ram Truck 1500 Specs everyone has been waiting for, this new award winning pick
up truck from Ram Trucks (formerly Dodge Ram) is absolutely the best truck ever built.
up truck from Ram Trucks (formerly Dodge Ram) is absolutely the best truck ever built.
The available power trains, class leading interiors, gorgeous exterior design, and real world capability never before seen in a pickup are yours for the taking in the 2013 Ram.
A 20-percent improvement in fuel economy might sound staggering, but
that's what the 2013 Ram 1500 delivers--along with a new V-6 engine, a
new eight-speed automatic transmission, a new air suspension, and a more car like interior, with Chrysler's latest Uconnect Touch interface and
much-improved materials and trims.
INFOTAINMENT
Chrysler's big 8.4-inch Uconnect Touch
screen-based system is available in the Ram, and it can incorporate
Uconnect Access, which tethers the truck to data services, adding
on a host of features including voice recognition, apps, and WiFi
hotspot capability.
The available navigation system offers
voice-activated features, new 3D terrain imagery, and lane guidance, as
well as fuel-price, weather, sports, and movie info through Sirius
Travel Link. There's also a new seven-inch reconfigurable gauge cluster
(in Sport, Laramie, and Laramie Longhorn models) that effectively
replaces a conventional gauge cluster and can quickly communicate
information depending on how it's customized, with up to three 'analog'
gauges at a time (when towing, an owner would configure the trans temp
gauge to be in the foreground, for instance).
The Ram comes with new
powered USB, SD card, and aux-in ports, as well as full iPod control via
USB, as well as expanded steering-wheel controls.
The Ram's redesigned suspension loses no ground, and its ride quality still stands above all its competition for on-road smoothness. Electric power steering is new, and it's about what you'd expect in a work-duty application--though on-center feel is more than acceptable, there's almost zero feedback beyond a few degrees off center. The Ram's new air suspension option enticed us on the preview tease, after driving it, we think it is in a word Awesome: of the five drive modes that allow best-in-class ground clearance, step-in height, and departure/break over angles, the "normal" mode is tuned to lower the truck at highway speeds for better gas mileage, 20% more which blows away Ford, GM, or anyone else for that matter. (The new eight-speed transmission helps here too)
Other new features for the Ram lineup are rain-sensing wipers, power-folding side mirrors, and a power-sliding rear window with defrost; and the innovative RamBox cargo management system is now locked and unlocked with the vehicle's central locking system.
Congratulations Ram Truck Lovers, you have the best truck available anywhere.
