Ram 1500 vs Ford F-150: Compare Classic Pickup Trucks In Eureka, CA
The Ram 1500 has been competing successfully with the Ford F-150 for years, and both trucks have a tremendous amount of capability, appealing features and attractive design. What elevates the Ram 1500 above the F-150 and other full-size pickups is that Ram offers a combination of interior space, comfort and even luxury that competitors like the F-150 can't match. Here's a comparison of these classic pickups and why you'll want to test drive the new Ram 1500 at Eureka Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram FIAT in Eureka, CA.

If you review our new Ram 1500 inventory, you'll find the powertrain lineup starts with a standard 3.6-liter Pentastar® V6 engine that stacks up well against the Ford F-150 with a 2.7-liter V6. The Ram 1500 with the Pentastar V6 has an edge in terms of towing capacity, coming in at 7760 pounds vs. only 7500 pounds in the Ford F-150. The difference is greater when it comes to payload. The Ram 1500 with the same V6 engine can haul up to 2320 pounds compared with only 1675 pounds of maximum payload in the comparable V6-powered Ford F-150.

Another area where the Ram 1500 comes out ahead is when it comes to performing well off-road. The Ram 1500 RHO with the high-output Hurricane V6 engine delivers 540 horsepower. That makes a Ram 1500 from our new Ram inventory a more potent performer than the Ford F-150 Raptor that gives you only 450 horsepower. According to Car and Driver, the Ram 1500 RHO can take you from zero to 60 mph in about 4.7 seconds. That beats the F-150 Raptor that takes 5.2 seconds to reach the same milestone.
Both off-road trucks include 35-inch all-terrain tires, advanced shocks and locking differentials. But the Ram 1500 wins again with a Launch Control feature that's not available on the F-150. What's more, the Ram 1500 RHO offers Fortuna, CA buyers nine different drive modes while the F-150 Raptor comes with only seven drive modes.
