Our Best Pickup Truck, a repeat winner, is the Dodge Ram. The latest Ram looks even more big-rig tough than before, and backs it up with the strongest engine lineup in the segment. Chief among them are the new Heavy Duty model's inspired 5.7-liter Hemi V8, with 345 horsepower, and a redesigned Cummins turbo diesel, that pumps out a stump-pulling 555 pound- feet of torque!

But the Ram story isn't only about brute strength. The redesigned chassis and suspension deliver best-in-class ride and handling. While the cabin, which is available in both 2- and 4-door configurations, offers SUV-size room with a wide range of comfort and convenience features, plus the first side-curtain airbags ever available in a pickup truck.

Prices start at $19,125 for the Ram 1500, while the Heavy Duty 2500 and 3500 models start at $23,810. A lot of big, tough truck for the money!
