RAM Work Trucks

RAM trucks stand out for the sheer volume of useful features on the vehicle. Recent models incorporate innovative storage solutions, such as the RAMBOX cargo system and in-floor RAM Bins. Other available features include gooseneck tow rigs and 115-volt power outlets. RAM work trucks also offer cutting-edge technologies making maneuvers such as towing and reversing easier. The most popular RAM trucks are the 1500 and 2500. The 1500 is the best all-around vehicle, with a luxurious interior and a maximum towing capacity of 12,750 pounds when properly equipped. It also has a maximum payload of 2,320 pounds. There are many different engine options available, with the EcoDiesel three-liter V6 making as many as 32 miles per gallon. As a heavy duty vehicle, the RAM 2500 has more extensive performance capabilities. This vehicle can tow just under 20,000 pounds with its 6.7-liter inline-six engine. It also boasts a maximum payload exceeding 4,000 pounds when equipped with the 6.4-liter V8. Top-level trims offer an interior far more quiet and elaborate than anything else offered in the class.

RAM Incentives

Iowa contractors and small businesses looking for a pickup truck can benefit from the broad array of RAM commercial incentives available to them. Perhaps the most useful is the BusinessLink program. BusinessLink connects fleet owners with commercial dealers and trusted upfitters who can help Ames residents manage their automotive needs. With perks such as extended service hours, a dedicated account manager and next-bay service, BusinessLink helps Iowa businesses stay on the road. BusinessLink is also free to join, requiring only proof of business status. RAM also offers On The Job allowances, allowing businesses to take advantage of discounts on equipment, upfits or graphics. Though exact details vary depending on vehicle, On The Job benefits let Iowa businesses keep ahead of their competition.
