2025 Ram 1500

If you're considering investing in a 2025 Ram 1500 for its towing properties, we can assure you that that's the right route to go! With relentless power and dominating design, we at Wabash Valley Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram would like to make your shopping trip an easier experience. To do this, our team has put together a towing guide that can help you make a better decision when you reach our location.

3.6L Pentastar® V6 Engine

The best way to go about deciding which Ram 1500 best suits you is by going over the muscle of each engine. Standard on this model is a 3.6L Pentastar® V6 powertrain, which is capable of producing 305 horsepower and 269 lb.-ft. of torque, so you won't have a problem passing up your competition as you make your way out onto Covington Road. For bigger loads, this motor is prepared to assist in the form of an 8,110-lb. towing capacity1 or a 2,370-lb. payload rating2. Then, when equipped with standard RWD, you can enjoy an estimated 20/25 MPG city/hwy3 fuel economy rating.

3.0L Hurricane V6 Engine

Gaining more force is possible when you upgrade to the available 3.0L Hurricane V6 powertrain. When the 2025 Ram 1500 is employed with this setup, you'll be able to wield 420 horsepower and 469 lb.-ft. of torque. Along with that, you will be provided with a 1,980-lb. payload capacity2 for when you want to bring additional gear to your family get-together at Towpath Trailhead. While that number is a little less than the previous engine option, the 11,570-lb. maximum towing capacity1 undoubtedly makes up for it. You'll also have a choice between standard RWD and optional 4WD, so you won't be without the necessary traction you desire.

3.0L High-Output Hurricane V6 Engine

The Ram 1500 takes your need for thrills seriously, which is why you can choose the optional 3.0L High-Output V6 motor. Upgrading to this will deliver a vivacious 540 horsepower and 521 lb.-ft. of torque. Accompanying this engine is a standard 8-speed automatic transmission, so accelerating will undoubtedly get your adrenaline pumping! 4WD is standard on this model as well, which can make venturing off the beaten path in Fort Wayne an exciting time. This is the engine choice you'll want to utilize more verve than muscle, because it has a 1,520-lb. payload capacity2 and a 9,920-lb. towing rate1. Visit us during our open hours to check out the various trim levels we have in stock. After that, you can speak to our skilled Finance Department to discuss leasing and buying options.

Our #1 place to go when we are looking to buy a vehicle is Wabash Valley Chrysler. Travis and I were in desperate need of a 4 wheel drive vehicle with the winter we are having and we found a 2016 Jeep Wrangler that we fell in love with. We called Garry Texeira and he made the Jeep ours that day. We got the Jeep right in time for the winter storm. We couldn’t be happier with our Jeep and we always get the best care from Wabash Valley Chrysler! We always look forward to seeing everyone there! Thank you Garry Texeira for always taking good care of us!!! We appreciate you greatly!! Garry Texeira deserves all the stars possible!!! Thanks again!
