The New Multi-function Tailgate
There are many ways in which the RAM 1500 stands apart from other trucks in its class. One of our favorites is the available multi-function tailgate! This tailgate features a 60/40 split swing-away door that open 88-degrees. This makes it easier to step up, load up, unload, and wash the bed of your truck. This tailgate is not only functional, but it's strong. You can put up to 2,000 pounds on it with ease.
More Luxury
The RAM 1500 knows how to work hard, but that doesn't mean you always have to. Once you step inside the interior, you'll be surrounded by luxurious details that are as good looking as they are functional. The available Uconnect® 12.0 with Navigation shows off the most advanced and largest-in-class 12-inch touchscreen. This touchscreen allows you to customize the home screen with split-screen capability, pinch-and-zoom like a smartphone and use physical controls for key features.
Above the steering wheel is an available premium seven-inch Driver Information Digital Cluster Display in full color, high definition 3-D graphics. The interior is calm and refined, thanks to the active noise cancellation. This system works to reduce ambient sound and give you a calm and quiet interior.
Long day on the job? Not to worry. Your devices will remain charged thanks to the available media center with standard ultra-fast USB charging ports and auxiliary ports. You'll also have all the entertainment you need to make the days fly by. SiriusXM® with 360L gives you personalized recommendations, complete voice control and smartphone integration.
All your favorite tunes will come through clear and loud thanks to the available Harman Kardon® Premium Sound System. The RAM 1500 boasts this available 900-watt system through 19 stainless steel speaker grilles. The RAM 1500 has pulled out all the stops where they matter most, so you can get the most out of your drives.

An Award-Winning Truck
Scranton drivers are getting a good value with the RAM 1500 TRX, but they are also getting an award-winning truck.
The RAM 1500 TRX model won the 2021 MotorTrend Truck of the Year. This is the first time an OEM has won three times in a row. The MotorTrend Truck of the Year is a 10-day evaluation of different model-year trucks and SUVs where the editors test vehicles out against six different criteria from design to value.
The 2021 RAM 1500 TRX won because of its versatility on and off the road. The powerful 6.2L V8 engine gives 702 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, making it perfect for off-roading and towing cargo. The high-strength steel frame is designed to keep you safe and the truck sturdy on any type of road in Vestal.
The towing and hauling capacities were a significant factor in the award and in buying the truck. The truck can tow up to 8,100 pounds off its hitch and haul 1,310 pounds in the bed. And towing your RV to Spruce Row Campsite in Ithaca is also easier with the Ram's rear camera.
Room is also a factor in its win. Cargo space is plenty with in-floor storage. Your passengers are also more comfortable with 45.1 inches of legroom in the rear seats.
But the 2021 RAM 1500 TRX shined the most for MotorTrend when tested as an off-road vehicle. The shocks on the truck help to absorb even the rockiest of roads and with 11.8 inches of ground clearance, you can go over most terrains in Vestal without damaging the underside.
A Truck for Every Profession
The RAM 1500 truck is synonymous with work. Our drivers look for trucks because they are heavy-duty to fit their busy lives. The standard RAM 1500 truck is equipped with anything our Vestal drivers need it to do. But as a professional, you need a more versatile truck. You need a vehicle that has the room in the cab you need, and that can also get your tools to and from your work sites.
Whether you are a plumber in Scranton or a construction worker in Ithaca, the 2021 RAM 1500 can be upfitted to take on the toughest of jobs.
The two most common ways to upfit your RAM 1500 are the Ram Chassis Cab and the Ram Heavy Duty.
The Chassis Cab is the perfect companion at any project site. It provides more cargo space for tools or equipment. Chassis Cabs can be dump uplifts making it easy to transport materials like rock or mulch to their intended location without shovels.
The Heavy Duty uplift is made for the storage of any cargo you might have. The Heavy Duty upfit can be customized as a plow for snowy areas or moving materials like rocks.
There are different options to choose from within the packages, like the bed's size, shape, and material. If you are in construction, you can choose between the Chassis Cab package or the Heavy Duty package. Then, within the Chassis Cab, you can choose from seven different packages like the MTE Zee Dump Body, 9' 2-3 yd, Mildsteel, Rigid Sides, 60" CA, and the Monroe MSSII Service Body, 11', Steel, DRW.
