Ram 1500
2024 Ram 1500 Review New Light Duty Full Size Truck is A New Breed
The 2024 Ram 1500 is a new breed of the award-winning full size light duty truck. A JD Power APEAL Study named the 2023 Ram 1500 as best in its full size, light duty class.
Is the truck a good fit for your lifestyle, trade or business? This review aims to answer questions about Ram 1500 capabilities.
Class Exclusives
The 2024 Ram 1500 continues the tradition of offering a long list of class exclusive features and best-in-class capability.
The 6.2-liter HEMI supercharged V8 is the most powerful mass-produced pickup. The Active Level air suspension is an award-winning, class-exclusive feature that provides unique four-corner operation.
Ram 1500s can claim best-in-class rear legroom. Even better, they are the only truck to offer available power-cooled reclining rear seats. That’s a nice idea for our hot Arizona summers. A rear seat center console is another class exclusive feature.
Utility is definitely an area where this truck excels. It’s also the only one in its class to have in-floor storage. Rams can claim best-in-class towing and best-in-class payload numbers, too.
Of course, RamBox remains the brand’s exclusive cargo management system. Probably the best pickup bed today, it has a center bed step, moveable anchor points, a cargo divider, and multifunction tailgate.
Final Edition for the Ram 1500 TRX 6.2L Supercharged V8
2024 will be the last year for an off-roading champion. The Ram 1500 TRX Supercharged V8 Final Edition is limited to 4,000 trucks. It comes in 8 exterior colors including the exclusive Harvest Sunrise, racy Delmonico Red, and the really cool Night Edge Blue.
Paired with a TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission, Supercharged V8 engines produce 702 horsepower and 650 pound feet of torque.
This turns the Ram TRX into a racing truck with a 0 to 60 mph speed of just 4.5 seconds. It can achieve a top speed of 118 mph. This engine is the most powerful in its class, and its power output is best in class.
The unique interior wears Patina stitching on its soft-touch dashboard and Triaxle-suede on its door panels. Matte carbon fiber dresses the instrument panel, steering wheels, console and doors. The top Harman Kardon audio system and a long list of driver assistance are valuable standards.
Warlocks and Rebels
Ram 1500 Tradesman Warlock trims are enhanced off-roaders. These trucks are essentially customized straight from the factory. They have 1-inch raised ride height and skid plates to keep them out of trouble.
To stop jostling and bouncing, the Warlock has Bilstein performance tuned-shock absorbers. An electronic rear-locking differential and 33-inch Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac tires ensure enough traction.
The 2024 Ram 1500 Rebel slots between the Big Horn and Laramie. It is offered with the Crew Cab and the smaller box. Off-road standards include skid plates for the power steering, fuel tank, front suspension and transfer case.
All-terrain tires and a rear electronic locking axle are standard. It has off-road calibrated shocks for the front and rear. Rebels are offered with 4x2 or 4x4 drivetrains.
If you like those skid plates, you can get the protection group for any 4x4 model. This adds all four skid plates and tow hooks. If you want the maximum height, the Active Level air suspension has two off-road modes. This increases ground clearance to 9.9 or 10.7 inches.
eTorque Performance
The 3.6-liter eTorque Pentastar V-6 is a mild hybrid engine. This electric power gives it a boost, helping it produce 305 horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque.
Likewise, the 5.7-liter eTorque HEMI VI utilizes its electric boost to achieve 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. It is the only hybrid V8 in its class. These two eTorque powertrains improve fuel efficiency without sacrificing power.
The standard rear-wheel drive can be exchanged for one of three 4x4 systems. The main two are a part-time two-speed 4WD or an on-demand two-speed 4WD. Four-wheel drive increases ground clearance from 8.4 to 8.7 inches.
TRX models have full-time four-wheel drive. This off-roading tool includes special modes for Snow, Baja, Mud-Sand, and Rock.

Towing and Payload
These full size trucks have the power and capability you need to get the job done. The entry level 3.6L V6 is quite strong. It can handle payload capacities of 1,990 or even 2,300 pounds in its 6-foot, 4-inch bed. It can handle 2,030 pounds in the 5-foot, 7-inch bed.
The 5.7L V8 Hemi can tow 11,310 lbs, 11,340 lbs, 11,520 lbs, or 11,540 lbs. The amount depends on cab size, bed size, and front or four wheel drivetrain. Best-in-class ratings include 12,750 pounds for towing and 2,300 lbs of payload.
Available across the lineup, Ram now offers Trailer Reverse Steering Control. This takes the guesswork out of parking your tandem camper or trailer.
With its four-corner Active Level suspension, the Ram 1500 can be lowered for easier loading. On the road, it can level the payload for safer and more fuel efficient travel. This air suspension improves off-road capability and improves on-road ride quality.

Trim Levels and Exterior Colors
Ram 1500 Tradesman trucks are offered with a Quad Cab and a 6-foot, 4-inch bed. This is also offered on the HFE and Big Horn trim levels. Quad Cabs have 35.6 inches of second-row legroom.
On the Tradesman, Big Horn and Laramie, Crew Cabs are offered with this bed or a 5-foot, 7-inch bed. Longhorn, Limited and TRX Crew Cabs are only paired with the smaller bed. Second-row legroom is 45.2 inches, leading the class.
Most exterior colors are available in a two-tone combination. Pearls are offered in Delmonico Red, Diamond Black Crystal, Patriot Blue, and Hydro Blue. Clear Coats are offered in Flame Red or Bright White.
Metallics come in Granite Crystal or Billet Silver. Additional exterior colors include Night Edge Blue, Ivory White Tri-Coat, and the TRX-only Harvest Sunrise.
A GT package adds a black grille and a sport performance hood to the Rebel or Laramie trim levels. Exterior features include a cold air intake and cold end exhaust.
