Dodge/Ram 1500 – the US pickup with HEMI V8 and TRX flagship: 5.7 to 6.2-litre displacement, kerb weights 2,358 to 2,960 kg, gross vehicle weight up to 3.5 tonnes
The Dodge/Ram 1500 is the half-ton class pickup that Chrysler, and since 2010 the standalone Ram brand, builds in North America; the range replaced the Dodge D-series pickup in 1981. Model names such as Laramie, Limited, Rebel and Sport denote trim lines, TRX the high-performance version with a supercharged engine; E-Torque denotes the mild-hybrid version of the HEMI V8. Chrysler was founded in Detroit in 1925 and has belonged to the Stellantis group since 2021; the Ram range has traditionally denoted the brand's half-ton to three-quarter-ton pickup.

The register lists 12 versions here with eight-cylinder engines of 5,654 to 6,166 cc, kerb weights of 2,358 to 2,960 kg, gross vehicle weights of 3,040 to 3,500 kg, lengths of 5,850 to 5,920 mm and widths of 1,930 to 2,240 mm.
The Ram 1500 ranks among the best-selling vehicles of any kind in the US and competes there directly with the Ford F-150 and the Chevrolet Silverado; in Europe it is offered in small numbers through independent importers. The Ram 1500 has traditionally been offered with straight-six and V8 engines; the models captured in the register all carry the V8 units.
When buying a used Ram 1500, key points are the condition of the HEMI V8 (lifter noise, operation of the MDS cylinder deactivation system), corrosion on the frame and load bed, and, on air suspension, the tightness of the compressor; parts are available through the Ram/Dodge trade and US import parts dealers.
