If you want a bit more power, there's a hefty 6.4-liter HEMI V8 engine that charges the 2500 with 410 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque. For monumental torque output and impressive fuel economy, there's an available 6.7-liter Cummins EcoDiesel V6 engine.

What trim level of RAM 2500 is right for me?

With eight trim levels to pick from, it can be hard to choose the right trim level for you. The trim levels include Tradesman, SLT, Big Horn (known as the Lone Star in Texas), Outdoorsman, Laramie, Laramie Longhorn, Laramie Limited, and Power Wagon. If you want a two-door cab, you'll have to stick to the Tradesman and SLT. Tradesman models will hit all the basics for most buyers, offering a locking tailgate, automatic headlights, a stereo with six speakers, vinyl upholstery and flooring, and a tilt steering wheel. SLT models offer power accessories, Bluetooth, cloth upholstery with carpet flooring, power heated mirrors, keyless entry, and an integrated trailer brake controller. Big Horn models provide the 2500 with foglights, remote ignition, premium cloth upholstery, alloy wheels, a limited-slip rear differential, and a leather-coated steering wheel with integrated audio controls -- we think this is perfect for people who want a nice mix of modern features and affordability. Outdoorsman trim models provide a transfer case skid plate, auto-dimming and power-folding exterior mirrors, fender flares, a two-tone exterior, tow hooks, an 8.4-inch touchscreen, a 7-inch driver information display, Uconnect Access, satellite radio, and rubber floor mats. Laramie models use the Big Horn as a base and add two-tone paint, chrome exterior trim, leather upholstery, automatic dual-zone climate control, projector headlights, front and rear parking sensors, LED taillights, heated and ventilated bucket seats in the front row, 10 speakers in a surround-sound audio system, and more. The Laramie Longhorn equips a chrome mesh grille, a spray-in bedliner, a full center console, running boards, wood interior trim, a navigation system, heated rear seats, HD radio, upgraded leather upholstery, and remote ignition. For complete luxury, Laramie Limited models contain the RamBox cargo management system, keyless entry and ignition, unique black leather upholstery, 20-inch wheels, monotone paint, automatic wipers, extra chrome trim, and automatic high beams.
