RAM Trucks introduced a new facelift for the 2500 lineup in 2015 as a 2016 model and further improved the pickup in all areas.
While the 2010 model was a completely new vehicle, the 2016 version expanded the customers’ options for the big 2500. Unlike other competitors, the four-door Crew-Cab was not the biggest in its family. That award went to the Mega Cab version, which provided a lunge-sized rear seat area. But the Crew Cab was fit for a family and could tow more than any other pickup in its class.

The exterior looked different depending on the trim level and options. While the base models featured black bumpers and were only available in white, the top-spec model featured chromed front fascia and bumper. It sported more chrome on the front than many regular cars on the entire bodywork. From its sides, the grille and the headlights looked raked-forward due to the turn signals shape. On top of its class was the Power Wagon, which was built for difficult off-road situations. It sported 32” BF Goodrich tires, a 12.000 lbs (5.4 tons) electric winch, and two-tone paint.

Inside, the base model was the Tradesman, which featured cranked windows and vinyl seats both front and back. That was the workhorse of the family, but for the higher trim levels, such as the Laramie, Big Horn, or Lone Star, featured heated steering wheels, Uconnect 8.4” touch-screen, and power everything. RAM built those for work and personal use as well.

Under the hood, the Crew Cab received a wide engine choice starting with a 5.6-liter V-8 and going up to a 6.4-liter Hemi. The diesel versions sported towing hooks at the front, and Cummins provided the 6.7-liter inline-six engines.

For 2016, the RAM 2500 gets a slight update, both in terms of design and performance, while also creating a new top-end Laramie Limited trim.
Visual changes include slight adjustments to the bumpers, grille, headlights and taillights, while the interior gets a new center console and a trim shuffle. Functionally, the RAM 2500 gets optional factory CNG engines across the whole range, new rear camera, bed lighting, front park assist and more. The 2500 Regular Cab here is mostly aimed at active workmen, being specially designed to be sturdy, simple and offer increased cargo space.

RAM 2500 was the only pickup on the market which offered a bigger cabin than a double-cab version and named it Mega Cab.
The carmaker introduced a new generation in 2010, and it took it six years to get an updated version. It was the kind of vehicle where the owner didn’t even need a tent if it went camping. The Mega Cab version was large enough to be considered a motorhome.

RAM offered different looks for different trim levels, but the Mega Cab was not available in the base levels with black bumpers. Most customers went for the Limited version, which sported a new crosshair styling with the bold RAM lettering. The full-options version wore a chromed mesh as well, while on the lower versions, it was black. Its extended cabin featured a thicker C-pillar.

Inside, the carmaker installed an interior fit for up to five adults. Behind the rear bench, the Mega Cab featured a storage area ideal for fishing rods, rifles, or tools for a job. For the Laramie, Big Horn, or Lone Star trim level, RAM installed heated steering wheel, the Uconnect 8.4” touch-screen infotainment system, and power seats.

Oriented towards the working men of the nation, RAM upgraded its heavy-duty lineup for 2014 to match their needs.
Aesthetically, the new RAM 2500/3500 uphold a bold presence, building up on the previous design, while retaining comfort and styling. The two models are offered with a choice of 18- or 20-inch wheels and a selection of 12 different colors. Mechanically, RAM’s big trucks now come with improved suspension, including the classic Hotchkiss leaf spring system and new rear air suspension, dual alternator systems for additional power supply and refined Cummins diesel engines.

A big pickup-truck with a Heavy Duty rating on it is always good for carrying heavy stuff around and will tow a boat without tearing up a sweat.
If it offers a large cabin, then it is even better.

The pickup-truck market in the U.S. is big and it is contested by more car-manufactures. The FCA offered the RAM, a brand that lost the name Dodge and used only the model name RAM for the commercial vehicles. Like the other two American car giants, GM and Ford, it offered the RAM in heavy-duty version, but with a cab fit for travel long distances with the whole family.

Not all the heavy-duty pickup-trucks were built to be used as daily drivers, but the 2500 RAM Crew Cab was designed to do that. The four-door version was offered for both family and work use. Due to its long wheelbase, the Crew Cab offered enough room inside the cabin for up to six passengers, depending on the seat layout and trim level.

Inside, there was not only luxury but also tons of utility features. A 115 volts power outlet was available in the center stack, a bench designed for three big adults was placed in the back. The legroom was big and if two passengers were there a wide center armrest with cupholders offered more comfort.

Under the bodywork, there was a newly developed chassis with 8 hydroformed cross-members and high-strength steel. In the rear portion of the frame, the structure included fully boxed rear rails and a factory-installed rear axle cross-member with provisions for 5th wheel and gooseneck hitches. A new conventional trailer hitch system was upgraded to Class 5 with a 17,000-lb. load capability.

It was reclining too, so the passengers could take a nap on a long journey. Behind that, there was a small storage area for some fishing rods or other small tools. The center armrest between the front seats was huge.
