Which 1500 is the Best?

If you're pulling heavy loads, there is just no substitute for the power and torque of the 5.7-liter V8. We'd get it in the Sport or Laramie editions, which are nicely equipped and reasonably priced. If your truck use is on the lighter side (just moving Jet Skis or mountain bikes), an SLT equipped with the 3.6-liter V6 is hard to argue with. It has plenty of power, delivers impressive fuel economy and can be equipped with most of the most-desirable options in the Ram inventory. But we suggest driving the diesel first to see if it matches your expectations for acceleration and passing power.  Find a Ram 1500 for sale

How Much Does a 2016 RAM 1500 Cost?

The Ram 1500 is offered in a complex array of body styles, trim levels, engine sizes and drivetrain options. We've summarized the trims here, but note that there may be some variation in features and pricing depending on the truck you choose. At the bottom of the Ram lineup is the commercial-oriented Tradesman ($27,000), which comes with only the basics: steel wheels, vinyl floor coverings and seats, air conditioning and a locking tailgate. You won't even get features such as keyless entry, power locks or power mirrors, though those items are optional. Next up in the Ram world is the HFE model ($31,700), which stands for High Fuel Economy. Only offered with 2-wheel drive, the Ram 1500 HFE includes a 3.21:1 axle ratio, a start/stop engine that shuts off when idling and a tonneau cover -- all geared toward improving gas mileage. It also includes cloth upholstery and power accessories as standard equipment. Above the HFE in the Ram lineup is the SLT, which starts at $32,400. It adds alloy wheels, chrome exterior trim and dual glove boxes. This is the Ram's volume trim level, as shoppers can add many options to equip it in just about any way they desire. Topping the SLT is the Ram 1500 Sport ($36,900), which adds power-folding mirrors, integrated mirror turn signals, an overhead console with a garage door opener, 20-inch alloy wheels, dual-zone automatic climate control, an 8.4-in touchscreen with Chrysler's Uconnect infotainment system, wireless hot spot capability, voice control, power adjustable pedals, heated front seats and a power driver's seat. Next up is the Ram 1500 Laramie ($40,400), which is essentially a luxury pickup truck. It adds leather upholstery, driver-seat memory, a power passenger seat, an upgraded audio system, wood trim and chrome bumpers. Topping the range is the crew-cab-only Longhorn ($49,600), which adds a remote starter, park assist, a navigation system with traffic updates, a larger fuel tank and tow hooks. An available Limited package boasts automatic wipers, keyless ignition, heated rear seats, ventilated front seats and a rear air suspension. An even pricier Limited ($53,200) version of the Longhorn trim adds improved trim, automatic wipers and automatic high beams. The Ram 1500 offers many options. Several of the truck's lower trim levels, for instance, offer optional features from high-end Ram models. And there are even a few available option packages, such as the feature-heavy Lone Star (for Texas truck shoppers) and Big Horn (for shoppers elsewhere) editions, which are available on the Ram 1500 SLT; the adventure-oriented Outdoorsman, which offers skid plates and all-terrain tires; and the Rebel, which adds even more off-road-ready equipment.
