There’s always plenty to talk about regarding Ram trucks here at Landmark Dodge of Morrow! Ram was an “outperformer” at the top of the list once again, with the J.D. Power 2024 U.S. Initial Quality Study providing the mojo. Ram outperformed EVERY brand and remained the only truck-exclusive marquee to accomplish this. Ram has consistently ranked among the industry’s 3 leading brands four times in the last five years.
2021 brought about a first-place standing and was the first time this was achieved during the study’s entire duration. The Ram 1500 claimed a win in the Full-size Light-Duty pickup segment, along with a third-place finish in the heavy-duty category for the Ram 2500/3500. Ram customers have a long list of demands, and we have always set out to rise far above every other brand in the industry. This is an incredible testament to our engineers and designers’ incredible skill level!
This study’s results mark an exciting new beginning for us here at Landmark, where our past successes will be a benchmark for a stellar future. The Ram brand remains intensely focused on meeting the demands of truck buyers and delivering the world’s best-quality vehicles to lots nationwide. Ram is known for building trucks that eagerly get the hard work done and safely transporting families daily. We are proud of our ability to outperform the competition, offering the best-in-class standard horsepower consistently. Another first for Ram is in the highly sought-after torque department, where the Cummins Turbo Diesel shows up for duty brandishing 1,000 lb-ft.
The Ram 1500 Tungsten also boasts real metal and leather elements, along with a sweet new 14.5-inch Uconnect touchscreen. It’s doubled down concerning comfort with the BEST ride and handling, courtesy of the hard-workin’ double-wishbone front suspension. Demands for ample rear legroom are common among those who frequently travel long distances, and here the Ram is once again the leader of the pack. The Ram brand also has the highest owner loyalty of any half-ton pickup, remaining solid and steadfast in a constantly changing market.
The Car and Driver review crew heavily praised the Ram for “one slick interior, lavish ride and handling, and great looks even while not hard at work.” They also highly recommend the Safety and Convenience Package. This adds awesome extras such as automatic high-beam headlights, lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise, and the useful multifunction tailgate. Models equipped with air suspension also have the cool added benefit of an adjustable ride height.
The Ram 1500 can tow up to 12,750 lbs and carry a payload of up to 2320 pounds. The 1500 Rebel with the gas V6 returned 24 mpg on the 75-mph real-world economy route. Higher trim levels add upscale materials and other nice comforts. This has rendered Ram #1 for those looking for a premium luxury touch. The Edmunds.com team claimed that “the Ram’s appeal is undeniable” and praised its comfortable ride and quiet cabin. The top-spec Tungsten is as luxurious as a pickup can get, with steering that never feels half-committed while cornering.
