2013 Ram 1500 - Long-Term Report: Part 1 of 4 - Four Wheeler Magazine

Ram Truck called it a refresh, but the improvements made to the ’13 Ram 1500 were no ordinary mid-cycle refresh with fancy new taillights or a fresh sticker package. With this refresh the Ram 1500 took home numerous awards for 2013, including our coveted Four Wheeler Pickup Truck of the Year. If you’re looking for a work truck that’s still fun and comfortable to drive, there’s a lot to love about our ’13 Ram 1500 Outdoorsman Crew Cab 4x4. Our base truck is priced at $37,300. We added the 395hp 5. 7L Hemi MDS VVT V-8 engine ($850),... We also added the Comfort Group ($395), Uconnect 8. 4AN Premium Nav/Radio ($500), 506-watt Alpine Surround speakers with subwoofer ($300), Active-Level 4-Corner Air Suspension System ($1,595), ParkSense Rear Park Assist System ($250), ParkView... Our original OTY tester came with the six-speed transmission in front of the 5. 7L Hemi V-8 because the eight-speed was unavailable at the time of testing. Source: www.fourwheeler.com
