While the 2018 Ram 1500 has a unique rear suspension design that sets it apart from the competition, it fundamentally follows a familiar full-size truck recipe: Offer a plethora of body styles, engine options, bed lengths and features. From fleet use to near-luxury spec cruisers, the Ram 1500 can be configured the way you need it.
Many of the Ram 1500 variants comes with a 3.6-liter V6 (305 hp, 269 lb-ft) as standard equipment, although a 3.0-liter turbodiesel (240 hp, 420 lb-ft) and a 5.7-liter V8 (395 hp, 410 lb-ft) are also available.
All Ram 1500s come with an eight-speed automatic transmission and are available in either rear-wheel or four-wheel drive. Like other trucks in the segment, you can order your truck with different gear ratios, and some models offer locking differentials.
The Tradesman and Express represent your traditional worker's truck, while the Lone Star and Big Horn variants add a few more features. The Sport model features full body-colored front and rear fascias, dual-zone climate control, power-adjustable pedals, heated bucket seats and steering wheel, and a larger 8.4-inch Uconnect system. The Night model follows suit, except it comes with gloss black 20-inch wheels and a black honeycomb grille.
Harvest models come in colors matching industrial farm machines from Case IH and New Holland. An additional inch of ride hight, all-terrain tires, skid plates and tow hooks increase usability over rough terrain.
Laramie and Laramie Longhorn models are luxury-oriented trucks, with the Longhorn offering the 5.7-liter V8, a spray-in bedliner, a 32-gallon fuel tank (vs 26), body-colored fascias, a chrome Ram logo on the tailgate, running boards, 20-inch polished aluminum wheels, full-size floor console, and heated and ventilated 10-way power-adjustable bucket seats wrapped in leather. At the top, the Limited is equipped like the Laramie Longhorn, but it adds an active air suspension and 20-inch polished aluminum wheels with gray inserts.
The Ram 1500 Rebel is an off-road-oriented truck that comes standard with a shorter final drive, locking rear differential and off-road Bilstein shocks. Front and rear bumpers are powder-coated in black, and black fender flares set off 17-inch aluminum wheels shod with all-terrain tires.
No matter which variant you choose, make sure to visit Edmunds to ensure you build the right 2018 Ram 1500 for your needs.
