Every so often, our team at Lithia Chrysler Jeep Dodge of Billings selects two features of our favorite rides to spotlight. The Ram 1500, a highly capable light-duty pickup, has many durability features to recommend it. This truck handles like a pro, tows a bunch, takes off-road beatings and still leads the competition. Here are two durability features for your info.
Ingenious Cargo Management
The Ram 1500 tows a total of 12,750 pounds and hauls up to 2,300. Its cargo bed hauls up to 2,000 pounds on its own, thanks to an extremely crashworthy, high-strength steel body.A pair of 60/40-split doors let you access the Ram 1500 cargo bed, but the lateral RamBox Cargo Management System takes the cake. The system entails two cutout boxes situated on cargo bed's lateral sides. The empty boxes reduce curbside weight and drag while offering storage and organization for tools, supplies and gear.
Monster Wheels
You never have to worry about owning even the worst terrain in Billings when you drive the Ram 1500. An automatic transmission and a HEMI-driven powertrain propel 12 standard and available wheels choices. The wheels are all aluminum to make them lightweight yet tough, with chrome cladding for structural reinforcement and aesthetic appeal. Sizes range from 18 to 22 inches.
