You can’t go wrong with a RAM truck as the legendary lineup is known for delivering strong specs and impressive capability. But between the light-duty RAM 1500 and heavy-duty RAM 2500, which one should you choose for your needs in Forney? The 2023 RAM 1500 starts things off with a kick, but if your job or outdoor adventures require more power, then you’ll want to consider upgrading to the RAM 2500 HD. Keep in mind that each model’s specs have a range depending on the exact configuration. However, to begin your research, you should see the maximum towing and payload capacities here:
