Read on to learn more about how our new Ram 1500 stacks up to the competition.

The Ram 1500 vs. the Chevy Silverado 1500?
The new Ram 1500 and the Chevy Silverado 1500 are closely matched, but as you can clearly see from the table above, the new Ram 1500 has a clear edge when it comes to power. With more muscle under the hood, you can take on more challenging terrain around the greater Thousand Oaks area, and get up to highway speed with no hesitation, making the new Ram 1500 the superior daily driving pickup.
The Ram 1500 vs. the Ford F-150
While the Ford F-150 may have an edge on towing power, the new Ram 1500 more than holds its own with over 11,500 pounds of towing capacity, enabling it to move large travel trailers, utility trailers, livestock trailers, and more around the greater Ventura area.
Plus, while the new Ford F-150 may offer impressive ride quality with its adaptive suspension, it pales in comparison to the comfort and ride quality of the available adaptive air suspension of the Ram 1500, affording you unparalleled control over your travels in this stellar new pickup.


The Ram 1500 vs. the Toyota Tundra
The Toyota Tundra is a fantastic pickup in its own right, but with a payload capacity that falls well below 2,000 pounds, it's struggles to stand up to the Ram 1500 as a work truck. If you're in need of an enterprise pickup or something to add to your business fleet, the new Ram 1500 is the better workhorse overall.
