Used 2022 Ram 1500 Crew Cab Trims Comparison

Two cab configurations are available: quad cab or crew cab. Both include four doors and a back seat, but the quad cab has less rear legroom. Crew cabs come with a short bed (5 feet 7 inches) or a long bed (6 feet 4 inches), while all quad cabs have the long bed.

Four engines are available depending on the trim level and configuration. They all use an eight-speed automatic that powers the rear wheels. Four-wheel-drive is available as an option on all but the Ram TRX, where it is standard. The engine lineup includes:

• 3.6-liter V6 engine (305 horsepower, 269 lb-ft). It comes with Ram's eTorque system, which is a mild hybrid system that slightly improves fuel economy, power and smoothness.
• 5.7-liter V8 (395 hp, 410 lb-ft) with or without eTorque
• Diesel-powered turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 (260 hp, 480 lb-ft)
• Supercharged 6.2-liter V8 (702 hp, 650 lb-ft; TRX only)

Big Horn/Lone Star
Moving up to the Big Horn or its Texas-only Lone Star variant equips the Ram with:

• Foglights
• Body-colored door handles
• Floor carpeting
• Cloth seats
• Leather-wrapped steering wheel
• Added interior storage
• 60/40-split folding rear seat

While the Ram Rebel is more capable than other Rams when it comes to off-roading, the TRX is a dedicated off-road performance truck. It builds on the Limited with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine, full-time four-wheel drive and these features:

Finally, several safety features are available for the Rebel, Laramie, Longhorn, Limited and TRX. Depending on the trim level, they include:

• Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Ram 1500 and the car in front)
