Your RAM Dealer Debunks Three Common Truck Myths

At Bernard’s Northtown Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM, buyers often come to our New Richmond RAM dealership with misconceptions. If you’ve heard any of these truck myths, read on to find out why you shouldn’t believe them.

Pickup Trucks Don’t Make Good City Vehicles

One common myth new car buyers believe is that pickup trucks don’t perform well in urban environments. In reality, the added height of a pickup truck can make city driving easier, and new pickups like the 2023 RAM 1500 deliver advanced performance that can handle city traffic just as easily as highway driving. Plus, the extra space always comes in handy on moving day!

The Bigger, The Better

Truck buyers often assume they should get the largest model they can afford. However, a smaller model may be a better fit, depending on how you plan to use a truck.

Unless you regularly need a heavy-duty truck’s towing and hauling capabilities, you will likely appreciate the efficiency and handling of something smaller. Of course, we also suggest considering your parking situation with any purchase.

Trucks Are a Bad Investment

Trucks can be as strong of an investment as a new car. Not only do RAM trucks hold their value, but they can also earn their keep in ways that a car or SUV can’t match. If your work or leisure time call for power, it’s easy to see how a pickup is the wiser investment.
