Light-Duty RAM Trucks vs. Heavy-Duty RAM Trucks in Nicholasville, KY

There’s nothing quite like the reputation of a RAM pickup. Our customers from all over Lexington, Danville, Versailles and Frankfort know the might of their RAM, and our team is thrilled to show off our pickups’ capabilities to curious enthusiasts during a test drive. When you think RAM, think about completed worksite jobs, stress-free weekend getaways and towing your biggest hauls without breaking a sweat. But which model is better for you? One question that frequents our salesroom is whether to choose a light-duty or heavy-duty model. The answer? It all depends on what you need. Let’s take a look below and figure this out together.

Powertrain and Capabilities

Ask yourself: What are my towing and hauling needs? How often do I travel? What does my worksite require of my vehicle? Answering these questions will help you decide if a fully capable, five-digit towing capacity pickup or a leaner, more reserved and efficient pickup is right for you. But one thing’s for sure. Stacked with multiple engine options — each one promising high horsepower without sacrificing efficiency — and drivetrains, our RAM trucks are hard to compete with. Take a look at the table to see each RAM model’s best available engine, maximum horsepower, torque and towing capacity.

Trim Differences within Models

Discovered the right RAM model for you? That’s great news! As you can see, there’s a big difference between the horsepower, torque and towing capacity between models that mostly rests on the type of engine you choose. But which trim within that model — like the 1500, 2500 and 3500 — is right for you? With your budget (whether personal or your company’s) in mind, take a look at the MSRP differences.
