What Are the Best RAM Trucks for Towing?

When it comes to power, there’s no better option than RAM trucks. Whether you’re looking for a basic half-ton truck or a dominant full-size model with all the bells and whistles, Twin Lakes Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM has what you need.

Many drivers choose RAM trucks solely for their towing capabilities. While the brand has certainly upgraded other facets such as its interior and technology to match its rugged ability, it remains a stalwart in the world of towing. Here’s a breakdown of the best RAM trucks for towing, excluding commercial models.

2021 RAM 1500

Probably the most well-known of the RAM truck models is the RAM 1500. Its classic brand has only been elevated throughout the years, with nine trim levels and an expansive list of drivetrains to choose from, including V6 and V8 gas engines with hybrid assists, as well as a diesel 3.0-liter V6.

Base models of the 2021 RAM 1500 will put your tow capacity at 6,760 pounds, which is nothing to sneeze at. But the most powerful models max out around 12,000 pounds, an impressive figure for this truck’s size.

2021 RAM 2500

A step up to RAM’s three-quarter ton truck brings us to the 2500 model. With the same updated interior and a choice between six trims, the RAM 2500 only increases in power from its little sister. Base models will allow their drivers to tow 17,350 pounds, maxing out at a massive 20,000 pounds for the most powerful drivetrain.

2021 RAM 3500

When it comes to full-ton trucks, few models can compete with the beast that is the RAM 3500. Just five trim levels are available for this truck, and not a single one disappoints. Tow capacity starts at a whopping 18,000 pounds, and the top end of the range hits an astounding 37,100 pounds, making for almost endless hauling possibilities.
