The register lists here 14 versions from eight-cylinders of 5,653 to 6,166 cm³, unladen weights from 2,298 to 2,972 kg, gross weights from 3,017 to 3,500 kg, lengths from 5,850 to 5,920 mm and widths from 1,970 to 2,240 mm; one version is recorded at 257 kW.
The Ram 1500 is one of North America's best-selling pickups and competes with the Ford F-150 and Chevrolet Silverado 1500; it serves as a work vehicle for trades and farming as well as a leisure and family vehicle in Crew Cab bodywork.
On used examples, rust on the frame and brake lines, the condition of the eight-speed automatic and transfer case on 4x4 models, air suspension on equipped versions, lifters and cylinder deactivation on the Hemi V8, and the mileage of the belt-driven starter-generator on E-Torque models all count; parts run through the Stellantis network.
