Overview
Part of the fullsize pickup truck segment, the 2013 RAM 2500 Regular Cab competes with the Ford F-250 SuperDuty Regular Cab, the GMC Sierra 2500HD Regular Cab, and the Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD Regular Cab. A base price of MSRP $29,420 gets you a 5.7L V8 and a 6-speed automatic transmission. Despite the price going up to $36,115, this single powertrain is found in all 2 trims. This engine produces 383 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque, achieving a 0-60 of 8.1 seconds, and is offered as both an RWD and 4WD. The RAM 2500 Regular Cab offers a single 8.1 feet cab with a payload capacity of 2,630 pounds. It also offers a healthy towing capacity of 17,780 pounds.
Buying Advice
We recommend sticking with the 4WD Regular Cab 140.5” SLT trim, which offers sufficient performance and plenty of color options to choose from. Standard features on this trim include cruise control, power mirrors, a power driver seat, and much more. The Luxury Group Package ($680) would complete the experience as it has features like auto-dimming exterior mirrors, electroluminescent instrument cluster, glove box lamp, and much more.
