Best Truck For Off Road

I like being out doors, camping, mountain biking, hiking etc. This truck meets all my needs and I should’ve gotten a pick up truck a long time ago

Really large, heavier than competitors,

Easy to drive despite its size, the 2020 Ram 1500 is versatile and competitively capable. Redesigned for 2019, this half-ton pickup now wears sleek bodywork and can be equipped with an interior that rivals many luxury-brand SUVs for plushness, without compromising its ability to do real work. The smooth-riding coil-spring suspension tops all rivals, and optional air springs at all four corners do even better regardless of load. The choices of drivetrains and equipment make it easy to find a version suited to weekend household chores, off-road fun, or serious towing and hauling.

Very sharp Ram, 3rd and best Ram I’ve owned!

I love it. The interior leather, trim, dash, and center console are the best I’ve seen for the price and even better than some more expensive competitors! Exterior styling is really sharp and mean looking and the power is ALL there.

Comfort, Reliability, and Great Towing Capacity!

I've been towing my race car with a Dakota for the last four years, and since I've started to travel farther from home, I decided to step up to a full-size truck. The 2016 RAM 1500 Rebel has the 5.7L Hemi V8, an 8-speed transmission, a towing package, and a really nice interior that's unique to the Rebel model. Between the car and the trailer, I'm typically towing around 5,200 pounds, and with the Hemi, this truck does a great job at it. It has a factory trailer brake controller and a Tow/Haul mode that makes pulling the trailer stress-free. The seats are comfortable and with the adjustable ride height, the pneumatic suspension system is practical and comfortable. You can choose between Off-Road, Standard, Aero, and Entry/Exit heights and the rear suspension automatically levels itself when you haul things or tow a trailer. I was concerned about driving something as large as a full-size truck, but with the integrated back up camera, it's actually easier to hook up to the trailer than the Dakota was, and it even gets better mileage!

very nice all around truck

Truck runs good, handles well, and fits my needs. The Ram 1500 has plenty of storage spaces. I would definitely pay another , but I am hopping this will last me for along time.

The first truck I’ve ever purchased

I’ve driven a lot of vehicles being in the vehicle transport industry. By far this is the best truck I’ve ever been behind the wheel of. The style and comfort is excellent, but having the power and sound of that awesome 5.7L HEMI pull this monster down the street is 2nd to NONE!!!
