Ram 1500 vs Chevy Silverado
When it comes to having a truck that offers a smooth ride along the roads of Willard, Port Clinton, and Fremont, Ohio, can tow large equipment like a boat around Avon Lake, and makes sure you enjoy all the modern comforts inside your vehicle, there are two standouts.
Those would be the 2023 Ram 1500 and 2023 Chevy Silverado. After taking a closer look at the 2023 Ram 1500 vs. Chevy Silverado, our Firelands Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (CDJR) team found a few things that separate these two trucks. Keep reading below to discover more about these trucks below and determine which one you’d prefer to drive around the Sandusky, Ohio, area!
Tow Like a Pro
Each of these trucks comes with the ability to tow a range of equipment. With their similar maximum towing capacities, they can pull along your boat to the lake, bring your camper out for some family summer vacations, or just tow trailers loaded with tools or furniture.
Where some things differ is in the tech they offer, specifically the tech you can use to easily maneuver your truck and trailer. While both trucks have backup cameras to help when hitching, the 2023 Ram 1500 also has a system that can help you reverse everything in the direction you need to go.
You can even tailor its performance to match the current driving conditions, thanks to the various driving modes a part of the Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System.
Whether you arrive at the campground and need to back in your camper to your designated space or you want to lower your boat down the ramp and into the lake, available Trailer Reverse Steering Control is ready to step up and help. Just turn the knob in your Ram 1500 left or right and this system will make sure that the steering is adjusted so that your trailer turns that way.

Cabin Space in the 2023 Ram 1500 vs Silverado
From being able to control your entertainment options with your voice to having various color options and seating materials to choose from, the Ram 1500 and Silverado each have premium cabins to offer.
They both have various cabin configurations you can pick among, with the ability to maximize space with two rows of seating in either truck. While the Chevy Silverado has up to 43.4 inches of rear legroom, the Ram 1500 offers a maximum of 45.2 inches of rear legroom. Combine that with its available reclining rear seats and your kids or friends will surely enjoy the ride in your Ram 1500 for trips both near and far!

Practical Utility
You’ll notice that each of these trucks has a durable bed that has a great deal of space for tools, supplies, and even larger items you need to transport. While the Silverado has the optional Multi-Flex Tailgate, only the Ram 1500 has split swing-away doors available.
That means even with your boat still hitched, you can open up the doors to the tailgate and grab the cooler, lifejackets, and other items out of the bed. Plus, the 2023 Ram 1500 has the optional RamBox® Cargo Management System. This weatherproof storage area is great for securing tools and other supplies you always want to keep with you. It even is drainable, so you can turn it into a cooler for your next tailgate party!
