We here at McKinney Dodge Ram Chrysler Jeep are happy to inform you that Consumer Reports recently settled the score for large pickup trucks and named the new RAM 1500 "Best Big Truck." In addition to sitting atop the publication's rankings for full-sized pickups, the vehicle has also earned a "Recommended" rating due to its exceptional crash tests ratings and ability to offer above average reliability.
Jake Fisher, director of Consumer Reports Auto Test Center in East Haddam, Connecticut, talks of the new RAM 1500, declaring, "The Ram 1500 is surprisingly luxurious and refined - but still fully capable of doing hard work when needed. Continued interior and powertrain improvements make the Ram a particularly well-rounded choice."1
The 1500 is also regarded for its 5.7-liter Hemi V8 engine options, four-wheel drive system, and its new eight-speed automatic transmission. Even with its large size and ample power, the pickup still managed to achieve class-leading fuel economy ratings of 15 mpg combined in the magazine's own field tests.
Features we also find to be rather impressive are its innovative coil spring rear suspension, its optional UConnect infotainment touch screen system and its spacious and very comfortable cabin.
