4 Reasons to Buy a New Dodge Truck Dodge is one of the biggest names in trucks across the country. That’s because it has a long history of making some of the best trucks available. Dodge has vehicles that meet a wide variety of needs from work needs to recreational needs. Every year, there are new changes made to each truck in the lineup to make it a better fit for drivers and to give it a bit of added appeal. Here is why you should buy a new Dodge truck.  

Classic and Modern Designs 

While Dodge Ram is pushing to make trucks as advanced and forward-thinking as possible, it brought back many of its classic designs. Essentially, you can get a new version of an older truck design that you love. From the wheels to the paint, everything is designed to look like an older Ram truck, but you get all of the most up-to-date technologies and hardware to make sure that it will last a long time. Ram also has many new truck designs that look more modern, if that’s more of what you are into.  

Specialty Packages 

Ram often develops specialty packages that combine new functional features with design aesthetics to make something that looks very different from other trucks. These packages rotate per year and per truck so that each truck year stands out. There’s a new Night Edition alongside the well-known Laramie, BigHorn, Rebel, and Tradesman Editions. Each has its own look and special features that make it far different from the others.  

Towing Capacity 

Every Ram truck is designed to tow things well above what other vehicles can. In many work and fun situations, you need the ability to tow. While most drivers won’t reach the maximum weight load, it’s good to know that you can get a Dodge truck that can tow more than 12,000 lbs. That’s enough for a very large camping trailer, a race car trailer, a horse trailer, or a large boat. There’s practically no limit to what that truck can handle. They also have high payload capacities of up to 2,300 lbs, which is more than a ton of bricks. This makes work or recreational travel easy.  

eTorque 

Even trucks are making a move toward electric engines. Ram has made steady progress with the eTorque system. It exchanges the truck’s alternator with a 48-volt generator. Having the ability to produce its own power on demand improves your truck’s overall performance and reliability. This, piled on top of Ram’s other design innovations, makes any of its trucks highly dependable.  

There are many more reasons to check out Dodge trucks. To find the one that is right for you, check them out in person. There are many subtle differences in their designs that will make you want each truck. Plus, it can be a lot of fun test driving each one to see just how well they can hold up to or exceed your expectations.
