Why the 2014 Ram 1500 is Motor Trend’s Truck of the Year

As a Dodge Ram dealership in Arizona, we are especially excited about the 2014 Dodge Ram 1500 being awarded Motor Trend’s Truck of the Year award— an award that in it’s 34 year history, has never been given to the same truck two years in a row—until now!

Our team lives, eats, sleeps, and breathes Dodge and Ram vehicles and our General Manager, Jonathan Anderson even had a chance to meet with an engineer from the Ram Trucks team to learn even more about this amazing truck and the diesel engine that makes it so special.

2014 Ram 1500 Features and Key Points:

V6 Turbodiesel 240 Horse Power…
· Diesel contains 15% more energy than gasoline.
· Diesel burns slower, which means lower RPM’s.

Better fuel mileage…
· MPG Estimates: City 19 MPG, Highway 26 MPG, Combined 21 MPG
· Compare to GMC Sierra at City 15 MPG, Highway 20 MPG, Combined 17 MPG

Motor Trend put the truck to the test of the worst owners…
· Our testing represents the type of hard driving to which the toughest of owners will subject their trucks. After these tests the Ram still returned 15 MPG while competitors were in single digits with one truck at 10 MPG.

2014 Ram 1500 Amenities include…
· Two touch screen options are available; 5 inches or 8.4 inches and the system and interface does a great job of controlling simple and complex tasks.
· Keyless entry and start.
· Adjustable pedals.
· Bluetooth and voice recognition.
· Smartphone app connectivity, and even a WiFi mobile hotspot.
· Ample legroom in both front and back.
· Laramie edition comes with wood grain trim and leather upholstery.
