Ram Launches 2015 Heavy Duty Models with Trifecta of Claims

The RAM 2015 Heavy Duty Models include the best-in-class diesel for torque and towing as well as the best-in-class gas powertrain model for fuel economy, towing and payload. As if those choices weren’t enough, Ram offers other diesel and gas options with impressive capacities and unique Ram engineering features. For business managers, these industrial-grade trucks offer a good investment with the promise of high performance and long working lives.

THE RAM HEAVY DUTY DIESELS
A trio of diesel engines offer the nearly indestructible design of Cummins top tier engineering. These hard-workers offer torque levels that would make Hercules jealous. The key to their success is not just the high number, but the ability of the truck to utilize that torque even at low speeds. This low-speed torque offers incredible pushing and pulling power. The 370-horsepower Cummins churns out 800 lb-ft of torque. A proven automatic transmission, the 68RFE six-speed, adds to the overall durability of the package.

Best-in-Class Diesel Towing and Torque
With the ability to tow 30,000 pounds, rival trucks will have to take a back seat to the RAM 2015 Heavy Duty Models with the 385-horsepower Cummins High Output Turbo. The keys to its success are the high-strength durable truck body, a remarkably strong and versatile transmission, and best-in-class torque. With 865 lb.-ft. of torque, tough worksite challenges can be met more easily and with less stress on the vehicle.

Class Exclusive Manual Transmission
The G56 6-speed manual transmission has been lauded for its exceptional control, especially when the trucker is hauling or towing a heavy load. This is paired with a 350-horsepower Cummins diesel that cranks out 660 lb.-ft. of torque.

Best-in-Class Oil Change Intervals
To help business managers keep their costs down, the RAM 3500 offers a diesel with the longest oil change interval available today. These Ram 2015 Heavy Duty Models are designed to go 15,000 miles between oil changes.

THE RAM HEAVY DUTY GAS MODELS
The two V8 HEMIs offer smart fuel management and terrific load-moving power. The heavy duty 6-speed automatic can adapt to a driver’s shifting habits. There’s an independent lubrication cooler that can alter pressure for speed, differently weighted loads, and changing road conditions.

Class-Leading Deceleration Fuel Shut-off
The 5.7-liter HEMI V8 is first and foremost a hard-working truck. It offers a high standard of power and torque for the worksite. The 2015 Ram 3500 SRW Hemi has added an interactive Deceleration Fuel Shut-off system. This iDFSO is made to save gas by cutting the fuel flow during deceleration. The driver won’t notice the change except when fueling less frequently thanks to the improvement in fuel efficiency.

Best-in-Class Horsepower, Torque, Towing, Payload, Fuel Economy
RAM is offering the Best-in-Class gas powertrain. This class superlative leads in every way that counts. The industrious 6.4-liter HEMI V8 has 410 horsepower and 429 lb.-ft. of torque, making it better than every other gas rival in its class. The DRW models can tow up to 16,520 pounds. The payload capacity is rated at 7,390 pounds! Again, both of these figures are best-in-class. Last, but not least, the MDS/Fuel Saver Technology makes this V8 the most efficient in its class. While cruising at highway speeds, the engine can reduce from eight cylinders to four, sipping fuel while the driver enjoys uncompromising performance.

RAM INNOVATIONS
Like no other truck before it, the RAM won Motor Trend's Truck of the Year for two years in a row. One win was spurred by its diesel prowess, and the other was for its remarkable suspension. RAM has further adapted the suspension to suit heavy duty applications. The RAM 2015 Heavy Duty Models now offer the unique Auto-Level Rear Air Suspension, which can't be beat by rival pickups.

Class-Leading Auto-Level Rear Air Suspension
This air suspension works to correct imbalances created by uneven road surfaces and load-shifting. A level load results in better handling, improved fuel efficiency, and greater long term durability. The Alternate Ride Height Mode lets the driver create an alignment between the trailer tongue and truck hitch. This levels the load, improving handling for even the heaviest tows.

Class Exclusive Active Air Technology
Ram's Active Air system can draw cooler air during times of engine stress. This helps maintain capability even when the load is stressing out the engine or summer heat is a problem.

Special Radiator Design
The Cummins diesel utilizes a dual radiator system. This intelligent design reduces heat by 25 percent compared to the previous model. With less heat, the dual radiators ensure a more efficient operation.

New 6-speed Automatic
The AISIN is an extra-heavy duty version of a 6-speed automatic. It can be packaged with the High Output Turbo Diesel for maximum control and versatility. The AISIN offers a sophisticated Transmission Control Module. This smart device can turn off the exhaust brake momentarily to grab extra capability at a key moment. The Tow/Haul mode is calibrated for more aggressive downshifts, protecting the transmission even as it improves handling.

Advanced Dash Tech
RAM offers a high resolution tablet-like dash screen. Infotainment options can improve work productivity through navigational aids, traffic delay warnings, and weather advisories. The Cargo Bed Camera is a RAM exclusive that allows you to monitor your payload.

With so many options and innovations, the RAM 2015 Heavy Duty Models offer budget-minded, dynamic choices that are sure to appeal to individual owners and fleet managers.
