Five Things Your RAM Dealer Wished You Knew About Buying a Truck

Finding a truck can feel overwhelming, but it’s easy with a RAM dealer guiding you through the great selection at Bernard’s Northtown Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM. We’ll help you weigh your options so you find the perfect fit. Let’s discuss a few critical considerations before you visit us for your next truck.

#1: Full-Size or Heavy Duty?

New RAM trucks cover several weight classes, but not everyone wants a bigger vehicle. Knowing the applications for which you’ll use your truck will help you pick the right size and to work through some of the items that follow.

#2: Cab Size

Beyond the size of the truck bed, you also need to know what kind of cab you’re looking for. For instance, you’d only need a regular cab if you’re only buying it for yourself. However, a crew cab allows you to ferry up to four or five passengers in the truck, a benefit for productivity or bringing the family.

#3: Towing Capacity

Towing capacity can help with anything from a camper to a load of lumber. An idea of the kinds and weights of payload you need to tow will guide you to specific powertrains and option packages for your truck.

#4: New vs. Used

Depending on your situation, you might not need a brand-new truck. Keep Certified Pre-Owned RAM trucks in mind when shopping since they’re a smart way to save without sacrificing the features you want and need.

#5: Safety

Modern trucks have several safety features to protect you on the road. You can eliminate specific trim levels if you know which standard safety features you want.
