Most of the time, you'll never even know the hybrid system is working, which will be great news for some hybrid holdouts. Honestly, most of the time you won't even know the system is working, which is high praise for any mildly electrified vehicle. It also extends the engine's stop-start capability, which is smooth as warm butter in this iteration. A motor-generator and a small battery pack seek to boost usability, eschewing a desire for monster peak torque figures and instead working as a 130-pound-foot torque fill at low revs when you need to, for example, pull a boat out of the water. My tester rocks the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 mated to a 48-volt eTorque mild hybrid system, a $1,995 upgrade over the base 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and just a couple hundred bucks more than the 5.7-liter sans eTorque. But its current setup is more than ample. Pickup trucks boast oodles of capability right out of the box, so it's no surprise the Limited Longhorn doesn't add anything beyond aesthetics. Git along, little doggies (and big ponies) There's so much legroom in the back that you can splay all day, and if you need more (or drier) storage than the bed affords, the rear seats hinge upward, uncovering a flat floor with trays to keep things from rolling around.
There are cubbies, drawers and other hidey-holes for every occupant. In addition to the high-cost fripperies, this Ram 1500 crew cab proves solidly capable for workers and families.
