Dodge Heavy-Duty Pickups

First and foremost, the new 2010 Dodge Ram is about capability. In fact, its many features — including powertrain, towing and payload capacities, driving dynamics, amenities and styling – truly make it the ultimate heavy-duty pickup truck.

‘This is the continuation of the reinvention of our Dodge Ram lineup,’ said Mike Accavitti, Director – Dodge, Chrysler and Jeep Brands. ‘Over the past five years, Dodge has gained market share in the heavy-duty pickup segment, and to stay on that track, Dodge keeps innovating. Our new 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups will continue to build on our momentum.’

The backbone of 2010 Dodge Ram Heavy-Duty pickups is a hydro-formed, fully boxed frame with advanced torsional rigidity and stiffness. A coil-spring suspension setup is used up front, while the multi-leaf spring design is maintained in the rear for heavy-duty capability. Front and rear shocks and springs are tuned for optimum ride quality and capability.

In addition, new 2010 Dodge Ram transmissions include Electronic Range Select, which enables the driver to manually limit the highest available transmission gear, allowing manual upshifts and downshifts based on road speed and engine speed. A tow/haul mode switch enhances tow capability while towing. Tow/haul mode is available on both five-speed and six-speed automatic transmissions.
