July 22, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. – The first 2016 Ram 3500 Heavy Duty with a ground-stomping, best-in-class 900 lb.-ft. of torque rolls off the line at FCA’s Saltillo Truck Assembly Plant. Of course it’s a Mega Cab Laramie Longhorn.

All 2016 Ram 3500 dually configurations with a 6.7-liter Cummins and Aisin transmission have the capability to tow 30,000 pounds or more using SAE J2807 criteria. The 2016 Ram 3500 Reg Cab 2WD holds the pickup towing capability title at 31,210 pounds. Ram 3500 HDs also are payload-hauling champs at 7,390 pounds.

Creating a distinct identity for Ram Trucks has allowed the brand to concentrate on core customers and features they find valuable.

  • Best-in-class towing capability – 30,000 pounds with Ram 3500
  • Best-in-class payload – 7,390 pounds with Ram 3500
