2027 RAM 2500: Built to Tow Big and Work Hard

The 2027 RAM 2500 is built around a genuinely massive torque number, the kind that turns towing into an afterthought. This heavy-duty truck backs that muscle with a chassis built for construction equipment and grain trailers across central Iowa. At Deery Brothers Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Waukee, we keep this heavy-duty lineup ready for whatever central Iowa throws at it.

Performance Features

The standard 6.4-liter HEMI® V8 covers everyday duty with 405 horsepower and 429 lb-ft of torque, more than enough for most trailers and job loads. Available upgrades top out with the 6.7-liter Cummins® High-Output turbo-diesel inline-six, rated at 430 horsepower and that massive 1,075 lb-ft of torque for the heaviest towing jobs. Both engines route power through a standard TorqueFlite® HD eight-speed automatic built to handle serious weight without hesitation. Confident control matters as much as raw output. A standard electronic on-demand transfer case shifts smoothly between two-wheel and four-wheel drive, and drivers hauling heavy loads regularly can add the available auto-leveling rear air suspension to keep the truck level no matter the weight in the bed.

Safety Features

A rear backup camera and adaptive cruise control come standard on every one of these new RAM trucks, no upgrades required. The available Safety Group adds more peace of mind on top of that with Blind-spot Monitoring with Trailer Tow Detection, Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking, and LaneSense® Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist, all watching the road so you're never doing it alone. An available digital rearview mirror with tow mode adds a clear line of sight behind even the biggest trailers.

Towing Features

The standard 6.4-liter HEMI® V8 tows up to 17,740 lbs and carries a maximum payload of 4,580 lbs with the available Payload Upgrade Package, more than enough muscle for most job sites. Step up to the available Cummins® High-Output turbo-diesel and towing climbs to 20,000 lbs, while payload settles at 3,990 lbs for drivers who prioritize pulling power over bed capacity. The available Tow Technology Group rounds things out with a 360-degree surround view camera, trailer reverse guidance, and a Fifth-wheel/Gooseneck Prep Group, built for drivers who hitch up heavier trailers on a regular basis.
