Here at our Norwich, CT Ram truck dealership, we're constantly fielding questions from prospective Ram owners and lessees like this one. After all, when you're investing in a new heavy-duty pickup, you owe it to yourself to do your due diligence. Fortunately for you, we here at Falvey's Motors have done much of that research for you. In fact, when you compare the new Ram 2500 against rivals like the new Ford F-250 Super Duty, we think you'll discover that it's one of the most well-rounded pickup trucks for sale in Connecticut these days.
So, why should you choose the new Ram 2500 over the 2023 Ford F-250 Super Duty? Well, there's any number of reasons to do so, but one of the best reasons to consider it is fact that the new Ram 2500 is a lot more cost-effective than the 2023 Ford F-250 Super Duty. Not only does it often clock in at a more affordable price point than the Ford F-250 Super Duty in most cases, but it also has an edge on durability and long-term care costs.
You see, the new Ford F-250 Super Duty comes with an aluminum alloy body, as opposed to the conventional steel body of the new Ram 2500. While this aluminum body makes the Ford F-250 lighter, it can often be more costly in the long run as repairing dents and dings can be more costly with an aluminum body as opposed to conventional steel.
It's also worth noting that when it comes to towing power, the new Ram 2500 can move heavier payloads than its Ford F-250 Super Duty rival. When properly equipped with its CUMMINS® Turbo Diesel engine, the Ram 2500 can tow up to 20,000 pounds, so it's perfect for everything from boats and camper trailers to toy haulers and gooseneck trailers when properly outfitted. By comparison, even though the new Ford F-250 Super Duty has more overall horsepower and torque, it can only move up to 15,000 pounds when properly equipped.
Of course, there's one more way in which the new Ram 2500 outclasses the Ford F-250 Super Duty, and that's on interior sophistication. Now, both these new pickup trucks are well-equipped for work truck usage from their entry levels, with durable vinyl seating and easy-to-clean rubber flooring. However, when you look at higher range trims, you'll find that the new Ram 2500 offers more upscale features at a more competitive price point than the Ford F-250 Super Duty. From premium leather upholstery and wood interior trim to conveniences like ventilated front row seating, driver's seat memory settings, and even heated second row seating, the new Ram 2500 offers more for your money than a comparably priced Ford F-250 Super Duty trim.
