2026 Ram 3500 FAQs

Tradesman, Big Horn/Lone Star, Laramie, Longhorn, and Limited are typical. SRW and DRW availability varies by trim and options—tell us your trailer and we’ll spec the right setup.

Opt for the 6.4L HEMI® gas if your loads are moderate and upfront cost matters. Choose the 6.7L Cummins® turbo diesel for frequent heavy towing, long grades, and high pin weights. We’ll map your trailer weight and routes to the optimal gearing and cooling.

Start with DRW for higher pin‑weight margin, specify the factory fifth‑wheel/gooseneck prep, integrated trailer brake controller, tow mirrors, and consider rear auto‑level air suspension for consistent ride height.

Regular and Crew Cab are common; Mega Cab availability varies by model year/market. Beds are typically 6'4" or 8'. Your trailer type and parking constraints will guide the choice.

Available features include adaptive cruise with stop & go, lane‑keep assist, 360° camera with Trailer Surround View, blind‑spot with trailer coverage, parking assist, and trailer tire‑pressure monitoring (availability varies by trim).
