This one goes out to all the faithful Ram Truck owners from state of Texas. We know you’re loyal to your truck, and we know how hard you put them to work. So just for you, here’s the 2014 Ram 1500 Lone Star:

2014 The Ram 1500 Lone Star

The Ram 1500 Lone Star was the first truck designed with the Texas terrain specifically in mind. Built for the people who like to dig in and get dirty, we knew the hard-working folks of Texas would find it appealing. You’re always going the extra mile and  pulling the extra weight. You work full days, and you need a truck that can keep up.

Well, you’ve enjoyed the Ram 1500 Lone Star … that’s for sure. So much, in fact, that the Texas Auto Writers Association have named it Truck of Texas™ two years in a row. The fabled 5.7-liter HEMI® V-8 with 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque keeps this truck moving and working at a pace worthy of Texas, and the eight-speed auto transmission is a welcome complement. You can rest assured in its durability, as well, with the 5-year/100,000 mile powertrain limited warranty that comes with all Ram Trucks.

Sound like a truck you could put to use? You can schedule a test drive any time and pay a visit to your dealer. When you get behind the wheel of a Ram Truck, you’ll feel right at home in a spacious, well-connected, luxurious interior. Stay rugged on the road and comfortable in your mobile office. Go check it out, and let us know what you think.

Tailgating at Summer Concerts in Your Ram Truck

Summer is a time for warm nights and good music, and while tailgating is often seen as a fall football pastime, it shouldn’t be overlooked for the summer concert season. There’s nothing quite like putting down the gate of your Ram Truck, cranking tunes and sharing some fun and food with friends, and when it’s in preparation for a live music event, it’s just that much more fun.

2014 Ram 2500 Heavy Duty

Maybe you’re going to see Ram Truck’s friend Easton Corbin on a Friday night in July. Load your friends into the cab of your Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, where you and four others will fit comfortably. The available RamBox feature makes for a great cooler you can load with ice and dozens of cans of your favorite tailgating beverage. With the space you save there, take advantage of the 6-foot, 4-inch bed to bring a compact grill, coolers of food, lawn chairs and a tailgating game of your choice. Make sure you show up early, with plenty of time to spare, so you can enjoy your mobile party.

Don’t forget that each Ram Truck comes with an innovative UConnect system that will not only help you find the perfect tailgating location, but also give you access to over 100 Sirius Radio stations and Bluetooth connectivity. Now you can crank your favorite songs to get you in the mood for a night of live music.

When you drive a Ram Truck, you’re opening yourself up to a world of open roads and adventure. There are a lot of roads out there, and a lot of live music along the way. See and hear it all from a highly capable, reliably durable Ram Truck.
