2023 Ram 3500 Review

When a regular Ram 2500 Heavy Duty won't do the trick, there's the brawnier 2023 Ram 3500. In addition to guaranteeing you one upmanship among your truck-owning buddies, the Ram 3500 is ready for just about any towing or hauling job you can throw at it. With its available high-output Cummins turbodiesel inline-six, the 3500 produces 420 horsepower and, most importantly, 1,075 lb-ft of torque. That's good enough for a maximum tow rating of 37,090 pounds when properly equipped.

The Ram 3500 belongs to the Ram pickup truck family, which means it benefits from a comfortable cabin and a relatively smooth ride on paved roads. It also comes with plenty of the latest tech features, which include a vertically oriented 12-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a new digital instrument panel display.

Though the 2023 Ram 3500 is still the truck to beat when it comes to most available torque, its heavy-duty rivals have closed the gap since the big Ram arrived on the scene. The Ford F-350 and F-450 Super Duty give the Ram 3500 a run for its money in the towing and hauling department, and they also offer decent available tech. Chevy's Silverado 3500HD is always in the mix, too. Picking among them often comes down to what brand you're loyal to or which one offers the best deal. We certainly think you'll do well by picking the Ram.
