The 2020 Ram 2500 has plenty of high-tech features, a stout towing capability, and one of the nicest interiors on the market for a heavy-duty truck. There are a couple of minor downsides, such as a suboptimal driving position and a noisy diesel engine. In the end, though, the Ram 2500 is one of our favorite trucks on the market, and we'd absolutely recommend a test drive.

Overview
The 2020 Ram 2500 stakes out a middle ground between the light-duty Ram 1500 and the extra-strength Ram 3500. It's available in a wide variety of cab, bed, engine and drivetrain configurations, meaning that if you're in the market for a heavy-duty truck, there's likely a Ram 2500 for you. Updates for 2020 are minor, but the truck was redesigned last year and still feels plenty fresh.

Major upgrades for this generation include more high-strength steel in the frame and aluminum body panels to reduce weight and improve fuel economy, higher towing and hauling capabilities, and an improved set of standard and optional safety features. The 2500 also borrowed the interior from the recently updated Ram 1500, which we've found to be the nicest in the class. Power comes from either a 6.4-liter gasoline V8 or a turbocharged 6.7-liter inline-six diesel engine.
Of course, the Ram 2500 has some competition. The Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD (and related GMC Sierra 2500HD) is all-new this year, and Ford has made a bunch of updates to its F-250 Super Duty. You won't go wrong with any of them, yet it's easy to recommend the Ram given its appealing mix of capability and refinement.
Edmunds Expert Rating
edmunds TESTED
by the Edmunds Experts
Good
7.9
out of 10
We drove the 2020 Ram 2500 on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.
Performance
7.5/10
How does the 2500 drive? For such a massive rig, the Ram 2500 accelerates, handles and stops reasonably well. Full-throttle acceleration is gradual but totally adequate. Our 4WD test truck needed 8.3 seconds to cover 0-60 mph at the Edmunds test track, which is respectable for the segment. A simulated-panic stop from 60 mph took 140 feet — which is also an average distance for a heavy-duty truck.
Around corners, the steering feels appropriately light, but the handling limits are low. If you ignore the 2500's size, it's actually pretty drivable in the city. For off-road use, the available Power Wagon model has some serious off-road capability that most other heavy-duty trucks don't offer.

Comfort
8/10
How comfortable is the 2500? Both the front and back seats of the Ram 2500 are extremely comfortable. The seats are well padded and well bolstered, and they have lots of adjustments. Soft-touch surfaces are nice for hands and elbows. And the ride on the highway is as good as you can expect in a 2500 — which is to say bumpy but not disturbing.
Climate control is operated via touchscreen and some button controls, but the touchscreen functions are hard to find. With the optional diesel powertrain, there's a lot of vibration coming up through the pedals and steering wheel as well as a constant drone on the highway — that's not completely unheard of for the class but still annoying.

Interior
8/10
How’s the interior? From the basic, no-frills Tradesman to the top-trim Limited, the Ram 2500 has an appealing interior. The buttons and interior controls are laid out in a logical and easy-to-use manner, and there's enough space in every seating position for adults. Getting in and out isn't an issue thanks to the optional power-deployable side steps and big openings from all four doors. The only minor downside is the driving position, which some drivers might find too elevated.
Technology
8.5/10
How’s the tech? The Ram's top-end 12.3-inch touchscreen is only rivaled by much more expensive luxury systems from Mercedes and Audi. The crisp, clear screen has an easy-to-learn organizational structure. But we also like the less expensive 8.4-inch touchscreen. Both of them offer easy access to your connected smartphone and voice controls that work well.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration operates seamlessly, and you'll find all the USB ports you could ask for. Those willing to spend extra for great sound can opt for an excellent 17-speaker premium stereo. Driver aids such as adaptive cruise control and blind-spot monitoring are effective without being intrusive.

Towing and Storage
8.5/10
How are the towing and storage? As you'd expect from a truck such as the Ram 2500, towing and hauling capability is massive. The available rear air suspension's exclusive kneeling function makes loading and trailer hookups easy. The Ram's maximum payload and towing capacities are impressive, even among the admittedly strong competition.
The Ram 2500's center console storage bin is huge, and the rear half of the cab has cavernous cargo capacity as well. If you're carrying kids, the ultra-wide back seat can easily hold three child seats, and the seat anchors are accessible.

Fuel Economy
7.5/10
How’s the fuel economy? The EPA exempts heavy-duty trucks from fuel economy ratings. Depending on conditions and driving style, our test truck with the diesel engine ranged between 15 and 20 mpg, which is pretty respectable for a truck this big and capable.
Value
7.5/10
Is the 2500 a good value? Ram is really leading the way, with impressive controls and high-quality materials that feel worthy of the price tag. The exterior body panels and add-on extras such as the bed cover are well put together, too. The Ram 2500 has similar warranty coverage to its main rivals from Chevy and Ford.
In this class, the sky's the limit when it comes to pricing. A Ram 2500 can easily crest $70,000, but so can a heavy-duty Ford or Chevy. Don't get too carried away with the options list and you should be fine.

Wildcard
7.5/10
The Ram 2500 is a big truck with a big personality. It's one of the classiest trucks in the segment, yet it's still somehow intimidating as you see it driving down the road. But like other heavy-duty trucks, it's not exactly fun to drive on a daily basis, especially if you're on anything other than wide-open country roads.
2020 Ram 2500 trim level differences
Whatever your needs, a heavy-duty truck such as the 2020 Ram 2500 probably has a configuration that will fit them. There are three cab styles, two bed lengths, and two powertrains to choose from. The Ram 2500 also comes in six trim levels: Tradesman, Big Horn/Lone Star, Laramie, Longhorn, Limited and Power Wagon. Compare the 2020 Ram 2500 trim levels in-depth.
Which 2500 trim does Edmunds recommend?
It's hard to recommend one model given the number of configurations and the wide range of needs among heavy-duty truck shoppers. That said, the Big Horn/Lone Star trim comes with a good number of additional standard features for not much more money than the entry-level Tradesman.

2020 Ram 2500 Tradesman 2dr Regular Cab 4WD LB (6.4L 8cyl 8A)
I bought a single cab 2020 ram because I liked my 2018 ram so much, but they are NOT the same. I started have electric problems after 30 days( the fuel gauge stopped working). Took it it for repairs and they found nothing wrong with it, they had it for 3 days. 2 days later the problem came back this time they fixed in 9 days. Next the shifter started acting up along with the radio. 19 … days later they had it fixed. Now the back up sensor will not stop beeping when you have it turned off with a trailer on. So it has to go back again. I called the Ram Care Center to try and work out a Swap for this truck because it's a lemon and they told me they would keep fixing it as long as it's under warranty but now do anything else. She suggested I buy a longer warranty. I've owned the truck sent 8/14/20 and it's been in there shop for 30 days so far and has to go back. I will not being buying a Ram ever again if this is how they stand behind there trucks.

2020 Ram 2500 Tradesman 4dr Crew Cab SB (6.4L 8cyl 8A)
I bought a brand new 2020 Ram with the 6.7 diesel. The truck ran great for the first 9,000 miles. Then I noticed a noise in the drivetrain when going from drive to coast. I took the truck to the dealership and they couldn’t find anything wrong. By the time the truck had 15,000 miles on it there was a noise all the time. I went back to the dealership and this time they agreed there was a … problem. First they replaced the transfer case, that didn’t fix it. Next they re-flashed the computer, that didn’t fix it. Now they have the transmission out of the truck. The truck has been down for 40 days so far and they have no idea when it will be fixed. I contacted Ram customer care, complete waste of my time. Ram customer care is telling me 6-8 weeks before they will do anything about it. So much for customer service. Currently 4 of the 5 vehicles sitting in my driveway are Chrysler products. This is the last Chrysler product I will ever buy. The quality is absolutely terrible and the customer service from Ram is even worse.

2019 Ram 2500 Tradesman 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (6.4L 8cyl 8A)
I bought the first Ram of it's kind to hit the state and so far so good. We are a Mopar family and this is my 3rd consecutive Ram since 2007 (born in raised in a GM home and that's who put food on the table). My last truck was a 2014 Ram 4x4 1500 5.7/8spd. QC Black Edition, so I have prior experience with the beauty that is the 8 speed. I'll preface this by stating I had been actively … shopping (actually building) 2018 Tradesman similarly opted. I had went to 3 dealers to look, but just couldn't settle for the 6 speed transmission. The 6 speed and 373 is a terrible combo in Ram and the 4:10s are hard to find. I ended up seeing this exact model at the last dealer I went to. I while there aren't many rebates, I do get supplier pricing and qualified for 0% so I decided to take it for a drive. First thing I noticed is that the 1st 3 gears pulled substantially harder than the 6 speed. 4th, while low, seems to be a good mid-range gearing. On the highway this truck sings along at 70 moh and appx 1800rpm. I am averaging (only 200 miles on it) appx 15mpg, with mixed driving. I pull a boat,firewood,ATVs etc, and maybe a TT from time to time. I cannot justify the added expense of the CTD. FCA did right with this setup as the 8 speed can handle almost 600ftlbs of torque. I refuse to get caught up in this numbers game the makers are doing. The ride is quiet but firm, but it's a heavy duty. If you want plush, buy a car or spend $80k. I buy trucks for trucks. This setup is the perfect blend of function over form. The work grade vinyl is better feeling than most leathers and if I didn't tell you it was vinyl, you'd assume it was leather. This truck is carpet deleted, because who wants to clean carpet in a truck? If this gets dirty I can wipe the seats with a wet rag and spray out the floors. No more freaking out because mud was left in your $46k truck. Technology wise, I have no use for the 12" screen or climate control. They are neat, but wholly unnecessary, as phones can take care of everything I need and then some. But to each there own. This truck does have, park sense, rear camera, puddle lights, skid plates, On/Off tires/ Bilstein Shocks, Hill Descent control, Factory break controller, 220amp alternator, 6 aux switches, clearance lamps, and overhead night light (weirdly my favorite feature in my last truck too. It's the simple things) It's a well refined beast. There are a few things I don't care for: The ugly SXM antenna (I didn't get SXM nor do I want it), No flares on this year Off Road (it's an upgrade that usually results in rust anyway). Floor storage is only available on the Big Horn. If you can get over your stigma of owning a gas powered HD, this truck is a game changer. I know Ford and GM are coming to market with their answer, but I don't see that this race will ever stop, so pick a spot in the line and cut in.

2019 Ram 2500 Tradesman 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (6.4L 8cyl 8A)
This is about my tenth ram and is so far the best. Its the tradesman crew cab. Like the restyled black interior and finally no more grey. I had the seat covers changed by a local upfitter to black leather. Impressed with the fuel mileage at 20 to 23 mpg empty and 12 pulling a loaded trailer.
Ordering the trailer prep package was a big help and cost less than installing later. Wished I … could of ordered it and the side tool boxes together but you can’t. Like the pull down step for easy box access.
Was disappointed that the steering wheel is tilt only and that they know longer offer the in floor storage on the tradesmen like my last one.
