2006 Dodge Ram 2500 news, pictures, and information

A heavy-duty truck needs to handle a tough, heavy-duty workload. You won't have to worry about the Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 Heavy Duty trucks living up to your expectations wîth their combination of horsepower, torque, towing, and payload capacity.

- Available 610 lb-ft of torque
- Limited slip differential

Whether you choose the short (6-foot, 4-inch) box or the long (8-foot) box, you can haul a lot wîth Ram heavy-duty trucks. How much can it carry? Try up to 5,110 pounds when properly equipped.

You need the most power possible when tackling those giant snowdrifts, icy driveways, snow-covered parking lots, and rugged back roads. So having a heavy-duty truck wîth an available 350 horsepower makes perfect sense.

Transform horsepower into braking power wîth an available Jacobs Exhaust Brake;the only exhaust brake approved by Cummins. Get additional diesel engine braking power, extended brake pad and rotor life, faster engine warm-up times, and more.

Ram Power Wagon returns to the Dodge lineup ready for severe off-road work conditions. It comes loaded wîth essential factory-engineered off-road components, including electronically locking differentials, 4.56 axle ratio, Bilstein® shocks, 12,000-lb Warn® winch, and more. And the standard 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 produces a rock-crushing 345 horsepower and 375 lb-ft of torque. Ram Power Wagon is poised to demolish the competition's 4x4 capability—and everything else that stands in its way.

We've limited traditional stamping and welding on our truck frames—hydroforming is here. This means that Ram's bones are molded wîth highly pressurized water, a revolutionary manufacturing process that reduces weight by eliminating the welds needed to assemble a conventional stamped boxed frame section.

Whether you choose the 6-foot, 4-inch box or the 8-foot version you still get features like four nautical-style cleat tie-downs, two-tier loading, and compartmentalization.

The Dodge Ram 2500 or 3500 heavy duty isn't your neighbor's truck. You don't get one to move small stuff; you get it to move big stuff. And you can do it safely thanks to the great features available on the all-new Ram heavy-duty trucks. Remember to properly secure all cargo.
- Optional supplemental side-curtain air bags*
- Available power-adjustable pedals
- LATCH child seat lower anchors and upper tethers
- Rack-and-pinion §teering on 4x2 models
- Available Sentry Key® engine immobilizer
- Four-wheel-drive systems

Ram's big brakes mean increased stopping power, which is especially handy when towing or hauling heavy loads. Plus, the brake modules include electronic variable brake proportioning that automatically adjusts the brake force applied to each wheel depending on its traction.

The Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 heavy duty trucks feature optional supplemental side-curtain air bags* (the only heavy-duty pickups wîth this feature), child seat anchors, crush zones, and high-strength steel door beams for all four doors.
