With three mighty motors on offer, enough luxury available to make royalty blush, and plenty of high-tech smarts, the 2024 RAM 1500 is ready to take on any job and do it well. From two hybrid powertrains to an available multifunction tailgate, this year's RAM 1500 pushes the boundary of what it means to be a pickup truck.

Enough Muscle to Do the Job

Starting with an aggressive 3.6-liter, V-6 Pentastar power plant featuring eTorque hybrid technology, the Ram 1500 isn't playing around. Offering 305 horsepower at 6,400 RPM and 269 lb-ft of torque, RAM 1500s equipped with the entry-level engine can haul up to 8,110 pounds of trailer when properly configured, and support up to 2,370 pounds in the bed. But options only get beefier from here.

The Class-Exclusive V8 Hybrid motor is a stunner, clocking in at 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. Offering a Best-in-Class Hybrid towing capacity of up to 12,750 pounds when properly equipped, the 5.7-L HEMI V8 with eTorque can haul your boat, horse trailer or camper with ease. But there's even more growl to be had; the supercharged, 6.2-L HEMI V8 offers an astounding 702 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque, enough for the mightiest of tasks.

One Smart Cookie

The Ram 1500 offers plenty of hi-tech capability to make your drive smooth and enjoyable. The center console's Uconnect high-definition touchscreen spans up to 12 inches across and offers up to 5 driver profiles to let everyone in the crew set up their interface their way. The Uconnect system features Bluetooth compatibility and voice-activated commands, making control easier than ever.

An available 12" Driver Information Cluster Display and 7" Head-Up Display makes the RAM 1500 even easier to drive, letting motorists choose exactly what information they want to see and where they want it displayed.

Aerodynamically Optimized

The hood of the 2024 1500 has been elevated, tuning air deflection from the wiper area for clearer vision. The sculpted roof directs air to the rear spoiler. And when approaching 30 mph, the active air dam tucked under the front bumper automatically extends 2.5 inches toward the road surface, helping reduce drag and increase efficiency.

Configurations Galore

With Crew Cab and Quad Cab cabin offerings, boxes in both 5'7" and 6'2" configurations, and 4x2 and 4x4 drivetrains on offer, you can find the perfect RAM 1500 for any use case. And with options available like seating with Natura Plus with Axis II perforated leather, a 10-square-foot sunroof, and an available 900-watt, 19-speaker Harman Kardon Premium Audio System, it's no wonder this year's model is being called the most luxurious RAM 1500 ever.


There's no doubt about it: this truck is ready to tackle the toughest jobs in style. Test-drive the RAM 1500 today at Graff Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Rockford, MI, and discover just how comfortable capability can be.

5 Standout Features of the 2025 Jeep Gladiator

When you need a functional work truck or an off-road capable pickup, look no further than the 2025 Jeep Gladiator, which combines Jeep's legendary off-road abilities with extreme power and innovative features. We look at just a few reasons drivers can't wait to get their hands on the new Gladiator. more 1. Unrivalled Power At the heart of the 2025 Jeep Gladiator is the secret to its success: a four-wheel drive layout, a 3.6-liter V6 engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. This powerful combination guarantees quick acceleration, powerful performance, and nimble handling thanks to the 284 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque it produces. 2. Immense Strength Opening the easy-lower three-position tailgate gives you access to the 2025 Jeep Gladiator's five-foot truck bed. Capable of holding 35.5 cubic feet of cargo, this spacious bed has earned the title of the strongest in class with its 1,725-pound max payload. Need additional haulage ability? No problem, as the Gladiator lets you hitch a trailer weighing up to 6,000 pounds, or a class-leading 7,700 pounds when equipped with the available tow packages. 3. Fuel Efficiency Although the 2025 Jeep Gladiator is a powerful beast, it defies expectations in terms of fuel efficiency. Jeep has engineered its pickup using aluminum closures on the windshield, hood, doors, and tailgate to keep weight to a minimum. As a result, drivers can expect a respectable 22 mpg when cruising on the highway, helping you save money at the pump. 4. Trail Rated Badge Every 2025 Jeep Gladiator trim, from the Sport to the Rubicon, has been awarded the Trail Rated Badge for its outstanding off-road abilities. A high-strength steel frame, electronic locking differentials, and heavy-duty Dana 44 solid front and rear axles ensure this rugged pickup is ready to tackle even the roughest terrain. Excellent ground clearance and steel skid plates give you the confidence to drive over obstacles rather than around them. And, a high air intake and special water-tight sealing allow you to traverse creeks, streams, and puddles up to 31.5 inches deep. 5. Open-Air Adventures The 2025 Jeep Gladiator rules the roost in more than just strength and capability. It's also the only convertible pickup truck on the market, letting you enjoy the thrill of open-air adventures. Thanks to its Sunrider soft top, removable doors, and fold-down windshield, you can open up the cabin and experience the wind in your hair, whether driving around the city or exploring mountain trails. From its efficient V6 to its class-leading payload, the 2025 Jeep Gladiator has the power and capability drivers need for work and play.
