Forget Cadillac and Acura. The very best execution of a true modern day American luxury vehicle comes from the highly favored Ram. It will set you back as much as a BMW X5, will provide you with more legroom than a Mercedes S-class would, and it carries enough leather to dress Led Zeppelin for a whole tour. Most importantly, it manages to cleverly combine a pickup’s can-do traits and the convenience of a sedan.

2019 welcomed the fifth generation Dodge Ram 1500. This motor adopted a slightly lighter frame, 48-volt hybrid system and an optional 12-inch touchscreen was made available. These features seem like mere modernizing updates when compared to the mega suspension change that continues to give the Ram 1500 an edge over the likes of the Chevy Silverado 150 and the Ford F-150. The motor company replaced the traditional rear-axle leaf springs with coils (or air springs if you’re feeling extra boujee), tamed the jostle and bounce that usually acts as a disadvantage to an unloaded pickup. It was certainly the correct move to make when considering a society that often treats trucks like cars.

Amazingly, each of the 10 Ram trims come with its own unique look, meaning that there will certainly be one to suit your liking! The work-orientated Tradesman’s edition features unpainted bumpers and steel wheels, which won’t raise an eyebrow when it pulls up on a job site. The Big Horn/Lone Star trims are definitely flashier, with luxury chrome trims, which adds a touch of class to the motor.

The 2019 Dodge Ram 1500: 200 Mopar Parts To Choose From

One of the greatest features of the 2019 Dodge Ram 1500 was that it was introduced alongside a line of over 200 Mopar parts, so that their buyers could customize their pickup to within an inch of its life.

To showcase a very small selection of those parts, Dodge brought out a clever system which allows purchasers to combine trim levels - cool, we know! Sitting side-by-side to the Ram 1500 are mega 35-inch tires, 18-inch Beadlock wheels, black aluminum running boards and sleep black fender flares. An extra 2-inch lift kit also comes handy, which will lift the frame enough to fit all of those clever components without having the wheels rub.

If you think that’s interesting, get ready to take a look in the truck’s bed. Dodge can fit your pickup with an adjustable ‘Ram Rack’, which is a mean looking frame that you can attach, well, whatever the heck you want to. Be it camping equipment or even kayaks, they’ll be sure to fit up there quite comfortably.

The great features don’t just stop at the cosmetic parts, either. Mopar were keen to create a set of impressive performance upgrades. One of those being the cold-air intake for either the 3.6-liter V-6 or the 5.7-liter Hemi V-8, which is working to its full potential, thanks to the new hood. The giant engine offers the motor a whopping 395-horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. Sitting nicely within the bumper are a couple of five-inch exhaust tips and a bed step which can fold out, if you require the extra help. Both of these engines attach to an eight-speed automatic transmission, and the 2019 Ram 1500 has adopted the popular hybridization way.

Taking a look inside the beast, you’ll find what is arguably the most eye-opening feature of the 2019 Ram 150, a 12-inch touchscreen Uconnect 4 infotainment system. This mega screen is available on the high-end trims, such as the Laramie and Longhorn editions, and it is compatible with both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, with the ability to display information in full or split screen formats.

The newest Dodge Ram 150 added active-safety and convenience features, which include a 360-degree camera system, blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping assist, automated emergency braking, cruise control and automatic high-beam headlights. These impressive features give the impression that Ram have really considered the driver throughout its production.
