Why it stands out

The 2015 RAM 3500 stands out as a heavy-duty truck that had already moved well beyond its roots as a basic workhorse. By this generation, Ram had put a clear emphasis on luxury and technology, while also strengthening the truck’s frame, suspension, and transmission. It could tow more than 35,000 pounds and carry almost 8,000 pounds of payload, which gives it the kind of capability buyers expect from a serious one-ton pickup. The interior also benefited from a major upgrade in materials and available amenities, making the truck feel more like a daily driver than a stripped-down utility vehicle.

For 2015, the RAM 3500’s appeal also came from its broad mix of equipment and configurations. It was offered with Regular-, Crew-, Mega- and Chassis cab setups, long and short bed availability, 2WD and 4WD drivetrains, and optional dual rear wheels. Available features included a 360-degree camera, adaptive cruise control, a 12-inch vertical infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a 750-watt Harman Kardon 17-speaker audio system. The truck also had lane keep assist, adaptive steering, blind-spot monitoring, and an optional 50-gallon fuel tank, all of which helped it feel unusually well equipped for a heavy-duty pickup.

Its strongest selling point remained the diesel powertrain. The High-Output 6.7-liter Cummins turbo diesel inline six delivered 1,000 pound-feet of torque when introduced in 2019, and the truck’s torque climbed to 1,075 lb-ft then 1,150 lb-ft in 2021 and 2024, respectively. That said, the truck’s gargantuan proportions can be difficult to manage in towns and cities, and the diesel engine is noisy. Used examples are also pricey, so while the 2015 RAM 3500 offers impressive capability and a long list of features, it is not the cheapest way into a heavy-duty truck.
