Why Should You Choose the Ram 1500 Instead of the Ford F-150?

The Ram 1500 is a tough, durable truck that can handle your toughest jobs and keep you comfortable along the way. We think it's a great option for all kinds of drivers, but we know that it has a lot of competition; with so many choices, it can be hard to decide which model is the best option. Here at Nielsen Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram we would be happy to help you make that decision.

Other trucks like the Ford F-150 might seem to offer similar benefits at first glance. Both light-duty trucks offer impressive towing/hauling abilities, comfortable interiors and great features that make your drive more enjoyable. But the Ram1500 does a lot of things better than the Ford F-150:

• Better fuel economy: The Ram 1500 offers 21 city MPG and 29 highway MPG which allows you to stay on the road longer than the Ford F-150 and its 18 city MPG and 24 highway MPG.
• Better transmission: The eight-speed automatic transmission in the Ram 1500 offers quicker acceleration and smoother shifting than the F-150's six-speed transmission.
• More torque: The 1500 offers 420 pound-feet of torque for a more powerful and energetic drive than the F-150 and its 305 pound-feet of torque.
• More towing power: You can tow up to 7,950 pounds in the 1500, and only 5,600 pounds in the F-150.
• More trim options: The Ram 1500 offers eight different trims, while the Ford F-150 offers six trims.
