October 9, 2012 | by | 2 Comments

“The 2013 Ram 1500 is by far the most significant and important truck we have ever launched in the history of not only the Ram Truck brand, but also the corporation.”

-Fred Diaz, President and CEO
Ram Truck Brand and Chrysler de Mexico, Chrysler Group LLC

This statement, which kicks off the video below, is true thanks in no small part to the incredible technology showcased by the new 2013 Ram 1500. With advanced features like Uconnect and the 7-inch vehicle information center, the Ram Truck brand moves into the future to stay well ahead of the competition.

    Great updates to an already great truck. Not too sure the rotary dial shifter is a
    good idea though with respect to durability.
    Electric shift in large trucks with automated manual transmissions have
    plenty of reliability issues as do the electric shift 4wd transfercases in just
    about every brand of truck. Now an
    electric shift automatic transmission??
    No thank you! Hope to see Ram
    offer the 8 speed transmission with a traditional lever shifter with a cable
    attached to a selector shaft on the transmission. Some things just don’t need
    to be over technical!
