Hastings Ram – Why Heavy-Duty Drivers Around York, NE Choose RAM 2500 Towing Tech and Cabin Comfort
When your day swings from hauling equipment to heading out of town, the right heavy-duty truck becomes more than a tool. It becomes an all-day workspace, a trailering guide, and a quiet place to think between jobs. That is where the latest RAM 2500 shines, blending big-rig strength with useful technology like the available High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6, the TorqueFlite® HD eight-speed automatic, a Largest-in-Class available 14.5-inch infotainment touchscreen, and a Class-Exclusive available 10.25-inch Passenger Interactive Display. For drivers who value dependable towing and a stress-reducing cabin, this platform gets the details right.
At Hastings Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, our customers often ask which features truly make a difference over thousands of miles. Two stand out: trailering tech that anticipates real-world needs and interior systems that keep the crew informed and comfortable without distraction. Below is a quick guide to the upgrades that help you work smarter and arrive fresher.
- Towing muscle you can feel: the available High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 serves up 430 maximum horsepower and 1,075 pound-feet of torque for confident launches, grades, and merges.
- Smart-shifting strength: the TorqueFlite® HD eight-speed automatic is tuned for heavy loads, delivering crisp, well-spaced ratios and reassuring control when descending with a trailer.
- Trailering awareness built in: available 360-degree Surround View, trailer camera integrations, and Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring streamline setup and oversight.
- Cabin command center: the available 14.5-inch touchscreen and the available 10.25-inch Passenger Interactive Display let the driver and co-pilot divide tasks, keeping eyes forward and routes updated.
- Comfort for long days: available heated and ventilated seats, supportive bolstering, and quiet cabin tuning reduce fatigue between sites or across state lines.
Drivers also want to understand how this tech helps on a regular Tuesday. Picture backing a loaded trailer into a tight lot with the camera views split across the main display while your co-driver uses the Passenger Display to zoom a side view for obstacle checks. Or think about cresting an overpass and rolling down the far side, where the transmission’s shift logic helps hold speed without constant braking. These are the little moments that sum to safer, smoother days.
Trim choice is another frequent question. TRADESMAN® and BIG HORN® offer unbeatable foundations for upfits and fleet use. POWER WAGON® adds off-road gear like locking differentials and protective hardware for job sites that start where pavement ends. LARAMIE® and LIMITED LONGHORN™ step into premium materials and added tech, while LIMITED goes full luxury. No matter the trim, the platform’s structure, cooling systems, and stout axles are tuned for the long haul.
