Goodbye, old gal. Here’s a cabin that will, in no uncertain terms, wow drivers and passengers at first blush and on close inspection, as it glistens before you like the bacon-wrapped turkey on the cover of the Chatelaine Christmas issue. As I write this, there’s an all-new, next-generation, totally redone 2019 Ram 1500 heading to mark

Vehicle Type Many owners like the Ram’s tough but comfortable ride, a commanding driving position, numerous thoughtful feature and storage touches, and the availability of several fuel-efficient engine options. Pickup History/Description If you’re after a used pickup, the fourth-generation Ram 1500, also known as the Dodge Ram,

If you’re the sort of person who loads heavy loads, tows heavy tows – if you’re a truck fiend, I want you to stop now. Stop reading. Click on this Ram 1500 review from Justin Pritchard instead. This review will only make you angry. I want a truck. Not because my work requires it – it doesn’t. And not because I sometimes need it – I don’t.

If you’re shopping for a full-size pick-up truck and have visited the Ram Canada website recently, you might be surprised to see two different Ram 1500s front and centre at the same time. It’s the parts under the skin that make a difference here It’s not unusual for automakers to have two different model years available at once, even th

Column shifters are majestic, manly, and create more space for your truck-guy things on board. Take one part simple Ram 1500 pickup, add one all-black appearance package with blacked-out everything, value-bundle a list of must-have options, and keep the price reasonable, and you’ve got the RAM 1500 Express: a truck aimed squarely at first-tim

The Canadian auto market is just a sliver compared to how many vehicles Americans buy, but there are times when we can still throw our weight around. The monochromatic 2019 Ram 1500 Sport wasn’t part of the schedule at Michigan’s Sterling Heights plant, where the all-new 2019 truck is being built, until the folks at FCA Canada raised the roof.

SCOTTSDALE, Arizona – “Yeeehaw!” A final blip of the throttle tipped us over the brink of the gully, and we were airborne. There’s an intangible delight in that instant of weightlessness, suspended in time until the wheels touch down and you’re snapped back to reality. It’s an enormous, boxy beast, but the Ram 1500 lands with a coiled grace not unl

Trucks sure have come a long way over the years. I can recall my Dad’s dismay at the idea that his new truck had heated seats back in 1998. “Who the hell needs heated seats in a truck?” He scoffed. Interesting post-script to that story is that he loved the new feature so much and used it so often that he actually developed a heat rash. Funny how we

Brace yourselves, Ram haters, because this review is going to come off like a commercial. The Ram 1500 was already a very good truck. But the 2019 version? This is a great truck. I spent two weeks and more than 4,000 km in the 2019 Ram 1500 Limited , towing a trailer to boot, on my family’s recent road trip to the Saguenay fjord and

The 2019 Ram 1500 Limited might not be your long-distance road tripper of choice, even if purely from a fuel efficiency perspective. Beyond the big engine / big curb weight combo, for some the idea of taking a full-size pickup anywhere but the feed lot or the farm is a non-starter (unless they’ve hitched up a boat or a camper, in which case a wee

Limited-edition pickups are almost more common than the "regular" editions these days, but Ram is hoping that crowds will be abuzz, and swarming to showrooms later this month, when the new limited-edition Stinger Yellow Sport 1500 pickup arrives and goes on sale at your local Ram hive...I mean dealer. Ok, now that I've gotten all of the puns out of

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) has expanded a 2018 tailgate recall on Ram pickups to cover an additional 220,000 trucks in Canada. In the original recall issued in July 2018, FCA Canada contacted the owners of more than 260,000 Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 pickups sold between 2015 and 2017 to fix power-locking tailgates that could fall open unex

Ram has unveiled their new 2019 1500 pickup. The new truck is lighter and stiffer, with better aerodynamics and the ability to haul and tow more than before. It's also adding a hybrid system for better economy. It's an all-new truck this year, starting from the frame up. The new frame is 99 percent high strength steel, and it trims 45 kg off of

The Ram 1500 is getting a new badge for 2019, to make sure buyers know which 2019 is which. Ram has introduced an all-new 1500 pickup for 2019, but until all the trims roll out they're going to keep selling the old truck. To help you know which one you're looking at, or talking about, Ram is pulling out an old trick. The pickup you know as the

It’s said the truck wars, despite being alive and well, are all but unwinnable given the strong brand loyalty that so many buyers bring to the table. If your dad – or mom, for that matter – bought a Dodge, it’s all but a foregone conclusion that you’ll likely do the same thing. That hasn’t stopped automakers from doing their damndest to try and
