The Ram 3500 is the ultimate tool for the most demanding jobs. Whether you’re hauling equipment to a work site or towing a massive toy hauler to the dunes, there is a trim level configured for your specific needs.
| Trim Level | Best For | Key Feature for Vegas Drivers |
|---|---|---|
| Tradesman® / Big Horn® | Maximum Capability & Value | Durable, work-grade interiors and the available High-Output Cummins® engine for ultimate, no-frills towing power. |
| Laramie® / Limited | Luxury Towing & Long Hauls | Cooled leather seats and advanced camera technology make towing a large fifth-wheel across the desert a comfortable, first-class experience. |
You need a dually (Dual Rear Wheel) if you prioritize maximum stability and towing capacity above all else. A dually is essential for safely towing the heaviest fifth-wheel and gooseneck trailers, as the wider stance and extra tires dramatically reduce trailer sway, especially in crosswinds on highways like I-15.
The standard 6.7L Cummins® is incredibly capable. The High-Output (H.O.) version, available only on the Ram 3500, is tuned for maximum performance, delivering over 1,000 lb-ft of torque. You should choose the High-Output engine if you plan to tow at or near the truck’s maximum capacity, especially on long, steep grades.
Yes, especially in the higher trims like Laramie® and Limited. While it’s a large truck, modern Ram 3500s offer remarkably smooth rides thanks to available air suspension. Features like 360° surround-view cameras make parking and navigating city traffic much easier than you might expect for a truck of this size.
