Three Reasons to Buy a 2020 Ram 1500 Instead of a 2020 Ford F-150

The Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 alone account for a significant portion of auto sales each year. They are the best-selling vehicles in the country and are ahead of other full-size pickups in the segment by several thousand units. They, therefore, both offer a lot of reasons to look into them. Here are three ways the 2020 Ram 1500 stands out from the 2020 Ford F-150. 

The Ram 1500 is More Luxurious and Refined

It only takes a few seconds to see how more refined and luxurious the Ram 1500 is in the cabin compared to the Ford F-150. It offers an optional 12-inch screen that gives the interior a look reminiscent of Tesla which you don’t expect to see in a truck. 

More Powerful Engines in the Ram 1500

We buy a truck because we need power. Power to tow, the power to transport everything we need, and the power to move with confidence.  In this area, the Ram 1500 has the advantage over the Ford F-150 with its powerful V8 HEMI engine that delivers 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. The latter can tow up to 12,750 lbs and offers 2,300 lbs of payload capacity. The Ford F-150 offers a V8 engine that delivers 395 horsepower too, but with only 400 lb-ft of torque that tows only 11,500 lb. The V6 engine in the 2020 Ram 1500 is the only one to offer more than 300 horsepower in the truck segment with 305 hp compared to 295 horsepower for the 3.3-liter V6 in the Ford F-150.

ETorque Technology

ETorque technology uses a 48-volt battery to reduce fuel consumption without compromising performance. This exclusive system for the 2020 Ram 1500 injects additional torque at low speed to facilitate departures and towing in addition to optimizing the stop/start system. This unobtrusive system helps dramatically lower the fuel consumption of your truck without affective performance.
