2019 Dodge Ram 1500 (Quick Overview)

This post is part of a sponsored series. All opinions are my own. 

Last month after giving birth to my daughter, my husband decided his old truck just wasn’t going to cut it when it came to hauling two kids and a pup around. After considering the options out there for what he was looking for, he ultimately decided on the 2019 Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie. After speaking to the Illinois Dodge dealer, we found he’s not alone when it comes to choosing this vehicle over it’s competition.

TOUCHSCREEN

One of the standout features when it comes to the new 2019 Dodge Ram is the large touchscreen options up to 12 inches. You can split the screen to show navigation, media, climate controls and more – or leave it as the full screen to whichever control you want to display.

ENGINE & TOWING

Engine options range from a 3.6-Liter V6 to a 5.7-Liter V8, which offers a big kick down if you ever need. Plus for towing options, standard towing capacity is 6730 lbs while maximum towing capacity ranges up to 11610 lbs. 

TECH FEATURES

Some of our favorite tech features in this vehicle include the wireless charging (just place your phone in the designated area and it charges without any cords or programs), and bluetooth capacities. Talk to your contacts on the phone via the bluetooth speaker/mic, play your music or podcasts through Apple CarPlay and more. These are also just icing on the cake when it comes to new technology in these vehicles.

TRIM OPTIONS

When it comes to the Dodge Ram 1500 trim options, you have six different models available. In order from base to most luxury option, you have:

1. Tradesman
2. Big Horn
3. Rebel
4. Laramie
5. Laramie Longhorn
6. Limited

To compare the different options, you can visit the Ram website where they have all the specifications lined up in comparison to one another.

Of course when it comes to winter roads, he’s loving his choice. We even used the 4-wheel drive this winter to pull a car out of the ditch when he kept sliding back in due to the ice and snow. You never know when you’ll need that capability!

I’ll update you as we learn more about the Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie over the course of the next few months. If you have any personal experience with this vehicle, feel free to leave a comment below and share!
