South Chicago Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram

The 2011 Ram 1500 is the rich harvest of a four-year deep-dive into what a truck should be, and what a truck has never been. Every line, curve and plane is the result of an exhaustive campaign to rethink and out-class every truck out there. Ram design features:

• Class-exclusive^[1]integrated dual exhaust
• Bold hood bulge
• Wraparound full chrome bumpers
• Aggressive forward-leaning grille
• Six-passenger crew cab.Yeah, we built more than a truck here. We built a case for full-blown truck envy.

Ram 1500's incredibly smooth ride should come as no surprise. The multi-coil suspension increases the truck's ride quality, comfort and handling. It also reduces rear-end "hop" when driving on the highway.

• Balanced front and rear spring rates
• Fully boxed hydroformed frame
• Front springs and tubular stabilizer bar

Simply put, Ram gives you comfort and control, from front to back.

The 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 with Fuel Saver Technology isn' t just strong, it's also remarkably efficient^[1]. It gives the Ram 1500 up to 10,450 pounds of towing capacity^[2]. It also becomes a fuel-sipping four-cylinder when the conditions are right.^[1]

• Multi-Displacement System (MDS) seamlessly deactivates half of the engine's cylinders in fuel saver mode when less power is needed.
• Variable Valve Timing (VVT) delivers increased torque and efficiency.
• Stronger hemispherical cylinder heads produce more power, while a short runner valve active intake manifold increases fuel efficiency^[1].

Available 4.7-liter SOHC V8 two-valve engine is powerful and durable.

• Single overhead camshafts provide excellent performance.
• Valve train and combustion chamber allow low-speed torque, smooth idle and reduced engine noise.

The 3.7-liter V6 engine delivers durability and fuel-economy^[3].

• Single overhead camshafts deliver outstanding performance while maintaining fuel economy.^[3]
