The Dodge Ram 1500 is Chrysler's entry in the traditional American full-size pickup truck market. While it offers the expected full range of configurations, features, and options, in some important areas the Ram is significantly different from its competitors. Also, it no longer carries the Dodge nameplate, as one of the changes brought on by the reorganization of Chrysler is that the Dodge brand is now assigned to the passenger cars and the trucks are under the Ram brand name. So, from now on it is just Ram. Ram ST models are workhorses, with standard vinyl floor and manual windows, although they do include chrome bumpers and grille outline, air conditioning, ABS, CD player, variable intermittent wipers, locking tailgate, Sentry Key and, on 4WD, electric-shift. Everything on the Ram looks big, yet the truck takes up no more real estate than its competitors. The illusion comes from the shape, which has a definite presence. The seats are finished in a durable fabric that you won't stick to you in summer heat or be crusty and chilly in a blizzard. They offer good support and plenty of room. We'd rank the Ram cabin at or near the top of its class. The powerful Hemi V8, with variable intake valve timing, is rated at 390 horsepower and 407 pound-feet of torque, and delivers a wide powerband. Match the engine's power with the truck's clean aerodynamics and one result is that the Hemi's Multiple Displacement System (MDS) operates fairly often, enhancing fuel efficiency. The MDS essentially shuts off half the engine when not needed to save gas, and Chrysler says the Ram can be run past 70 mph with the MDS active. With the Hemi the Ram is among the most powerful of the full-size half-ton pickups. The Ram 1500 has the bold and brash style for which it is well known, and it's a refined package with loads of amenities for the occupants.
