Why The RAM 2500 Tradesman Is Right For You

Ram trucks have long been established as some of the sturdiest and most reliable pickups on the market. Whether you’re looking for an upgrade or shopping for your first pickup, a new Ram may be what you need. Rams offer a good driving experience relative to other pickups and are also some of the strongest vehicles available. Ram trucks can handle jobs of any shape and size, and that versatility is part of what makes them reliable.

With so many different Ram truck models available, you might be unsure which is right for you. The  Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 models all offer varying levels of power and towing capacity. Of the three, the 1500 has the lowest towing capacity, and the 3500 has the most. In the middle is the Ram 2500, which makes it arguably the best “all-purpose” Ram truck. While the 3500 might be the best for heavy-duty construction and towing jobs, the 2500 can handle nearly anything. The Ram 2500 itself comes in multiple trim levels: the Tradesman, Big Horn, Laramie, Power Wagon, and Longhorn. Here is everything you should know about the Ram 2500 Tradesman trim.

2022 Ram 2500 Tradesman

Strength and Towing Capacity

The 2022 Ram 2500 Tradesman is ideal for anybody looking for a dependable pickup that can handle tough jobs. While other models or trims may offer more in towing capacity, the 2500 has everything most drivers will ever need.

The 6.4-liter V8 engine offers up to 410 horsepower and 429 lb.-ft. of torque. That power gives the Tradesman a maximum towing capacity of 19,900 pounds and 3,530 pounds of payload capacity. That’s nearly 10 tons of towing capacity, which is exceptional for any pickup truck. That much strength should be more than enough to handle just about any task you can throw at the Tradesman. With so much strength at your fingertips, you can feel confident in your truck’s ability at all times.

Dimensions

The 2022 Ram 2500 Tradesman has multiple cabin models to choose from. The standard cab seats 3 passengers and offers additional bed length. With the crew cab model, you can seat six in your 2500 Tradesman, with reduced bed size. The larger bed size is 98.4 inches, 20.2 inches deep, and 66.4 inches wide. The smaller crew cab bed has the same width and depth and is 76.3 inches long. 

Your choice of cabin and bed size will likely depend on your needs. If you want your truck to double as a family vehicle, the crew cab model is likely right for you. But a crew cab is good for anyone who will regularly have passengers on board. The smaller cabin size is likely preferable if you don’t expect to be transporting many passengers.

Price

What really makes the Tradesman trim so appealing is its price relative to other pickups of similar quality. A brand new 2022 Ram 2500 Tradesman starts at just $44,865 with the smaller cabin size. This makes it the most affordable of all the 2500 trim options. For that price tag, you get all the strength and performance that have long placed Ram trucks among the industry leaders. Even as you add additional features, like larger cabin size, the 2500 Tradesman remains an exceptional value pickup truck.
