Why should I drive a diesel-powered truck?

  • Engine longevity: Do you want a truck that will be able to last on the road for as long as possible? Diesel engines have long been known for the longevity they offer, thanks to heavier components, robust construction, and more efficient combustion processes that allow these engines to handle heavier workloads. You can guarantee that your Ram diesel truck isn't about to kick the bucket anytime soon.
  • Lower depreciation: Anyone who wants to make a smart investment, not only for right now, but for the future, should consider a diesel truck. Due to the longevity, which we've discussed, any truck that boasts a diesel engine tends to depreciate more slowly than any other type of truck, allowing for a high demand to settle in, which is great if you ever intend on selling your truck in the future.
  • Towing capacity: If you want power, then you've come to the right place! Diesel engines, due to the high-compression combustion process, allow you to enjoy low-end torque, which can provide for an increased pulling power, which leads to the kind of towing capacity you will want to brag about. Whether the towing is for work or play, your Ram diesel truck can do it all.
  • Fuel efficiency: This may not have immediately come to mind when shopping for a truck with a diesel engine, but you had better believe that these engines are more fuel efficient! This means not only do you get great amounts of power, but you'll be able to skip out on gas stations more often, and keep on driving to your next destination.

What is the Ram diesel lineup available at Star Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram?

Are you interested in learning more about some of the top diesel models we have available at our dealership? We know you want the best, and we couldn't be more excited about the Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 models that you can choose from. These are diesel pickup trucks that you will be able to count on to give you the power you have been waiting for. 
  • Ram 2500: This pickup truck can boast a 6.7-liter High-Output Cummins turbo diesel engine, which can get you around 430 horsepower and up to 1,075 pound-feet of torque. The maximum payload sits at about 3,600 pounds, with the maximum towing coming in at an astonishing 20,000 pounds. You will never feel like your ride is lacking power at any point! This is helped with the heavy-duty four-wheel disc antilock brakes, the largest available fuel tank capacity in class, and even a class-exclusive available auto-level rear air suspension.
  • Ram 3500: Another option you can find on our lot is the Ram 3500, which is another heavy-duty Ram truck that flexes with the High-Output 6.7-liter Cummins turbo diesel that we mentioned previously, with more payload and towing capacity! That means that while you'll find 1,075 pound-feet of torque, you'll instead get 36,610 pounds of towing capacity and 6,050 pounds of payload. Power is the name of the game with these trucks; there's no doubt about it.

Can you tell me about the 2027 Ram Power Wagon?

The newest addition to the Ram diesel lineup is the Ram Power Wagon! We couldn't be more excited about this inclusion, as the 2027 model year is sure to bring about some of the most exciting improvements to power that we have ever seen. This is the first time that a Ram Power Wagon has gained the Cummins 6.7-liter High-Output diesel engine, with 1,075 pound-feet of torque at its disposal. How else will the Power Wagon impress? You'll find this highly capable off-roading truck with front and rear electronic-locking differentials, extensive underbody protection, Mopar accessory rock rails, a class-exclusive five-link coil rear suspension, Bilstein shocks, hill descent control, and a class-exclusive disconnecting front stabilizer bar. That doesn't even mention the 3.42 rear axle ratio or the fifth-wheel gooseneck preparation. All of the ways you could enjoy a powerful pickup truck are located right here with the 2027 Ram Power Wagon.
