Space Inside the Ram 2500
Depending on whether you buy your 2020 Ram 2500 with a regular cab or a crew cab, you will be getting plenty of space for you and your passengers. As I said, this is not one of those old heavy-duty trucks. The Ram 2500 gives you the power and ruggedness you need in a heavy-duty truck with the creature comforts you want to make driving more fun.
The Tradesman and Big Horn with regular cab seat up to three passengers, and provide 62 cubic feet of passenger space. The Regular Cab has one row of seats, with you and your passengers enjoying 39.8 inches of headroom, 40.9 inches of legroom, 62.9 inches of hip room, and 65.9 inches of shoulder room.
The Ram 2500 with a crew cab has even more passenger space. With 125 cubic feet of passenger room, there is enough space for six to be seated in the truck's two rows. Front-row passengers will enjoy 40.9 inches of headroom, 40.9 inches of legroom, 62.9 inches of hip room, and 65.9 inches of shoulder room, while rear-seat passengers appreciate 39.8 inches of headroom, 40.2 inches of legroom, 62.7 inches of hip room, and 65.6 inches of shoulder room. With that much space, you won't have to worry about your passengers fighting over the shotgun seat because every seat will provide comfort.
Infotainment for Entertainment
The 2020 Ram 2500 features the exceptional Uconnect infotainment system. This combines the truck's information systems with several entertainment features in one easy-to-use color touchscreen. These features include Bluetooth connectivity, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, Siri Eyes Free, 4G Wi-Fi Hotspot, and SiriusXM Satellite Radio. There are also two USB ports. The standard screen size on the Ram 2500 is 8.4 inches, with an optional 12-inch screen available on certain trims. This is the largest available screen size available for any full-size truck.
Adding to the premium driving experience, the Tradesman trim has a 4-speaker sound system. This goes up to 6-speakers on the Big Horn, and Power Wagon trims. The Laramie, Laramie Longhorn, and Limited have a full 10-speaker sound system. And lastly, a 17-speaker Harmon Kardon Premium Audio System available on the Limited trim. This is the highest number of speakers on any truck in the 2020 Ram 2500's class. With all these features, it won't be long before you and your passengers have so much fun, you forget you're supposed to be doing work in your heavy-duty truck.
Loading Up Cargo
If part of your motivation to buy a heavy-duty truck is its cargo capacity, then a great deal will depend on the Ram 2500 truck's payload box in deciding which trim level to choose. The Tradesman, Big Horn, and Limited all come equipped with an 8-foot box, which provides 74.7 cubic feet of storage space. In addition, the Tradesman has a cargo capacity of 4,010 pounds, the largest of the trims, while the Big Horn has a cargo capacity of 3,940 pounds, and the Limited has a capacity of 3,100 pounds.
The smaller 6-foot 4-inch box on the Laramie, Laramie Limited and Power Wagon provides 61.5 cubic feet of space for cargo. As a result, the maximum cargo capacity is 3,530 pounds on the Laramie, 3,350 on the Laramie Limited, and 1,500 on the Power Wagon. All of these numbers are sufficient, but as with towing, the numbers vary, so it will be important to pay specific attention to trim if cargo space and weight capacities are essential to your purchase.
