2017 Ram 1500: Which Trim Level is Best for You?

2017 Ram 1500: Which Trim Level is Best for You?

Let's get straight to the point, the 2017 RAM 1500 is an amazing long-lasting pickup that is a fantastic combination of strength, efficiency, and style. But here's the thing, the 2017 RAM 1500 isn't just one pickup truck, it is actually 11 different trucks - even more if you consider that there are three different cab and box sizes to choose from. We can't cover all the trim levels in one blog, but the team at North York Chrysler thought we'd highlight the ones that might best match up with your unique needs.

2017 RAM 1500 ST

If you are looking for a tough but economical truck, the RAM 1500 ST is the way to go. Just because it is the base trim, doesn't mean you don't have choices. There are 11 different exterior colours available, three box lengths, and 4x2 and 4x4 drive. You get a standard 5.7-liter HEMI VVT V8 with FuelSaver MDS that produces 395 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 410 lb.-ft. of torque at 3,950 rpm. Drivers also get a great deal of control thanks to the six-speed automatic transmission and the P265/70R17 BSW All-Season tires. 2017 RAM 1500 ST also gives you a firm but smooth ride thanks to the front suspension with upper and lower control arms and a rear suspension with multilink coil spring and heavy-duty shock absorbers. Unlike other vehicles in its class, the RAM 1500 ST comes standard with Electronic Stability Control with Hill Start Assist, Trailer Sway Control, Electronic Roll Mitigation, Rain Brake Support, Ready Alert Braking, and Traction Control. You and your passengers will enjoy the Radio 3.0 multimedia centre with six speakers, Media Hub with remote USB port and auxiliary input jack, and the 3.5-inch Electronic Vehicle Information Centre.
