Guide to Buying a RAM Truck as a Work Truck

Choose the Right Model For Your Business

First, you should determine which truck is perfect for your business. RAM offers three heavy-duty models: the 3500, 4500, and 5500.
While each has similar powertrains and features, these models have unique capabilities to dominate various jobs. The 2024 Dodge RAM 3500 is best for lighter commercial use, as it offers a perfect balance of payload and towing capabilities.

The 3500 truck is a famous model that offers an entry into the world of RAM heavy-duty pickups; the 2024 RAM 3500 Big Horn provides features identical to the 1500 and 2500 models and powerful engines to give you the strength you need.

The 2024 Dodge RAM 4500 enhances your trucks when jobs need more strength to get the task done. The 2024 Dodge RAM 5500 is the ultimate beast for conquering any demanding job. Its powertrain is built for maximum strength and is built to handle anything.

While these models come with regular beds like the RAM 1500 or 3500, the heavy-duty lineup offers Chassis Cabs. A Chassis Cab removes the bed from your truck, allowing you to uplift your pickup with whatever equipment you need for your business or job.

How do you get behind the wheel of these trucks for a test drive or to pass your gold-standard inspection? Instead of searching for "RAMs in Waxahachie," head over to Brinson CDJR, as we have heavy-duty RAMs on our lot—it's that easy!

Understanding Powertrains, Strength, and Trims

RAM loves to keep it simple with its heavy-duty lineup, and each model has similar trims. While the 3500 Regular/Crew Cab has a longer list, the 3500, 4500, and 5500 Chassis Cab models have the same four.

 The trims for the 3500 are:

Tradesman

Big Horn

Laramie

Limited Longhorn

Limited

The trims for the 3500, 4500, 5500 Chassis Cabs are:

Tradesman

SLT

Laramie

Limited

The powertrain options for the 3500 are the 5.7-liter turbodiesel Standard Output and a High Output version.

The powertrain options for the Chassis Cab models are:

6.4-liter V-8

6.7-liter turbodiesel

With multiple trims and engine options, you must consider towing and payload capabilities to ensure they perfectly suit your business.

 Each trim gives you unique strength, but the model is crucial. The 3500s provide light to medium might, while the 4500s upgrade your capabilities. The 5500s offer the pinnacle of power with the highest capabilities to ensure you can tackle any job.

Explore Tech and Safety Features

RAM is no stranger to advanced tech, and its heavy-duty lineup blends modern features and safety to enhance convenience while on the job.

Lower trims excel at keeping the frills to a minimum, as a RAM 5500 Tradesman will give you a smaller touchscreen with basic features, but higher up the models, you can get heated and ventilated seats, upgrade your infotainment screen, and more so, you can stay connected to your business.

Driver assistance is also crucial for RAMs in Waxahachie, Corsicana, and nationwide. Hence, RAM lets you opt into their Safety Group Package, which unlocks available features like adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, and more to keep you safe no matter where the job takes you.
