If you’re looking for a new truck this year, there are several Ram models worth considering. Each one is powerful, capable, and stylish. Each of Ram’s three truck offerings adds a bit more capability, and there are also a few commercial vehicle options for those who may have different requirements. Here’s a quick guide to help you decide which 2019 Ram vehicle is right for you.

Ram 1500

The Ram 1500 is the base model for 2019’s truck options. However, don’t let the fact that it’s lower on the totem pole distract you from how powerful and capable it actually is. All Ram trucks are built for heavy-duty use and have the capability features to prove it.

When it comes to performance, the 2019 Ram 1500 can handle almost anything you throw at it. It has a maximum payload capacity of 1,920 pounds. In regards to towing capacity, a properly equipped 1500 has a max limit of 10,700 pounds.

Three engines are available for the Ram 1500. The 3.0-liter eco-deisel engine offers up 240 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. The second option provides 305 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque. To get the most out of the Ram 1500, opt for trims with the 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 engine that produces 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque.

Ram 2500

The 2019 Ram 2500 is the mid-level truck in this year’s lineup. If you’re a hardcore DIYer or someone who finds themselves at construction sites often, the 2500 might be a good fit. It’s also an excellent option for those who look to do more heavy-duty recreational towing such as large boats and campers.

In regards to capability, the 2500 has nearly double the strength and capabilities of the 1500. A properly-equipped 2500 can tow just shy of 20,000 pounds and has a payload capacity of 4,050 pounds. The 19,780 pound towing capacity is more than any other 2500 model in the segment.

Its capability features are hard to match. With a towing capacity of 35,100 pounds, there’s nothing you won’t be able to haul. Three engines are available for the 2019 Ram 3500. The first option is a 410-horsepower 6.4-liter Hemi engine. The second option is the 6.7-liter Cummins engine that’s also available on the Ram 2500.
