2022 Ram 1500 Review

Is it time to upgrade your workday around Richmond, New Baltimore, and Detroit, MI? Then it may be time to find a new truck, and the 2022 Ram 1500 is ready to ignite your drives.
To find out more about this commanding pickup, check out this overview put together by your friends at Dick Huvaere’s Richmond Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. Let’s get started!
Rule the Road
The second your tires hit the pavement, you want to feel like you own the entire road before you. In order to have this commanding ride you crave, you need a bold powertrain. The 2022 Ram 1500 has four options to entice you:
|
Engine Option |
Horsepower |
Torque (lb-ft) |
|
3.6-liter Pentastar® V6 with eTorque |
305 |
269 |
|
5.7-liter HEMI® V8 |
410 |
395 |
|
3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 |
260 |
480 |
|
Supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI® V8 |
702 |
650 |
As you can see, each of these motors has something different to offer you. For example, the available supercharged engine delivers breathtaking power to achieve a top speed of 118 MPH.
The available EcoDiesel, on the other hand, is built for efficiency. Diesel fuel is denser than traditional gas, causing it to burn slower and last longer. The result is an EPA-estimated 33 MPG on the highway that keeps you away from the pump from longer.
However, if you’re looking for the maximum towing capability, you’ll want to choose a different motor. The choice is yours!
Haul with Ease and Confidence

2020 Ram 1500 Limited EcoDiesel
If towing is a top priority for you, then you’ll want to select the available 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 engine. When properly equipped with eTorque, you’ll be able to take on hauls up to 12,750 pounds. This means you can carry a two-horse trailer to a show out of town or bring your family’s large RV to a campsite with complete ease.
To ensure even your toughest towing jobs go smoothly, the 2022 Ram 1500 is packed with technology. Back in and out of spaces with ease thanks to an available 360-degree Surround View Camera that provides a clear, bird’s-eye view of your surroundings.
Add on the Reverse Steering Control as well to be able to control the direction of your trailer through a simple Trailer Steering Knob located in the center stack.
Designed to Fit all Your Essentials
In addition to towing, you need a truck that you can toss your tools and heavy machinery into the back of and head to your construction site. The 2022 Ram 1500 makes this easier with the help of an available multifunction tailgate.
It folds down like a traditional tailgate but can also be opened like a set of doors so you can easily reach your cargo, even when a trailer is attached. Plus, with a maximum loading weight of 2,000 pounds, loading up your ATVs or table saw is sure to be a breeze.
