Dodge Ram 1500 SPORT Tires

For years, the square-body RAM pickup has mostly stayed the same since its 1972 inception. That all changed in 1993. Introduced in the mid-90s, the Ram pickup has been a favorite of drivers for decades. With big rig-inspired styling and various drivetrains and body styles available, the Ram 1500 is the ½-ton rated iteration of this popular truck. The 5th-generation RAM is available with an extended cab or 4-door body (single cab was discontinued due to low demand) and trim levels that include Tradesman, HFE (High Fuel Efficiency), Big Horn-Lone Star, North Edition, Rebel, Laramie, and Limited. Upscale trim levels of the RAM 1500 are refined and sophisticated with amenities like leather seating, 19-speaker Harman-Kardon audio, a 12” touchscreen, full driver assistance, air suspension, and much more. The V6-powered HFE trim of the RAM 1500 is rated at 20 mpg city, 26 mpg highway, and 23 mpg combined, which is pretty remarkable fuel economy for a full-size pickup.
