2019 Ram 1500 – The Perfect Truck? Quite Possibly!

There are tons of options in the market if you’re looking for a new full-size truck in Albuquerque. Some of the bestselling vehicles in America are pickup trucks and companies are consistently offering bigger and better trucks with new innovations, packages, options, and features. But if you take all those offers and consistent improvements, year after year, one truck still leads the pack. It’s Motor Trend’s 2019 Truck of the Year - the Ram 1500. In fact, it might even be the perfect truck! Ram took the unique features that made the truck great in previous years and improved upon them.
The biggest innovator in the Ram 1500’s design is the new eTorque system. The eTorque system is a light hybrid and it replaces a traditional alternator with a small electric motor. We know a smaller motor doesn’t sound like it would improve upon an imposing truck like the Ram 1500, but this smaller motor doesn’t change the Ram 1500’s top speed or horsepower. The eTorque system will make the truck accelerate faster by using the instant torque electric motor.
The 2019 Ram 1500 is also the only light-duty pickup truck to offer an air-suspension system! Air suspension systems use compressed air as springs to keep the road from rattling the frame. With an air-suspension system, you can even adjust your ride height meaning that you can load your Ram 1500 to capacity and then adjust it to keep the bed level! This is one feature you’ll have to come down to Melloy Dodge to check it out for yourself!
One of the older features from previous Ram 1500 models are the RamBoxes! The 2019 Ram 1500 is the only pickup truck to offer these lockable boxes that are built into the long sides of the truck bed. You can fit anything from large items like shovels and rakes to smaller items like your work gloves and tools. They’re useful for anything that you may not want to keep in an open bed. But what is the best use for the RamBoxes? They’re waterproof and drainable, so you can fill them with ice and use them to store drinks!
Upgrades for the interior of the 2019 Ram 1500 were implemented as well. The Ram 1500 now boasts a 12-inch touchscreen Uconnect®. This customizable touchscreen in the center console features pinch-and-zoom and a split-screen mode to see the trucks interior controls. Full navigation, voice control and a media center with Sirius XM® are just some of the additional features.
