2014 Ram 1500 Laramie Limited Edition Crew Cab review notes - AutoWeek

Ram 1500 is made even better with a diesel. ASSOCIATE EDITOR GRAHAM KOZAK: We’ve had loaded Ram 1500 s in our test fleet before and had generally favorable things to say about them. Launched with a great deal of fanfare, I know Ram moved a lot of them early on. Not sure if sales have been sustained, but if America is ever going to warm up to diesel, it’ll probably be because of trucks like this. And, for the moment, trucks like this are where this EcoDiesel should stay. Sticker price is high, but unlike the Jeep (which cost about $1,200 more than the Ram) you can get the diesel without springing for an uplevel trim: You can apparently option the workaday Ram 1500 Tradesman with the EcoDiesel and that’ll only set... EDITORIAL INTERN BRAD WILEY: The Ram 1500 is the comfiest truck on the road. I’ve driven dozens of trucks, both big and small, in one capacity or another, but I have never ridden/driven in a truck that carries its weight so gracefully. Now, I wouldn’t call this truck the fastest thing through a slalom course, but it is darn comfortable. Source: autoweek.com
