2013 Ram 1500 surprises

The brand new 2013 Ram1500 Express Quad Cab 4X4 with the HEMI 5.7 liter engine offers a lot of value for just over $36,000. USD. This is an unexpected price that gives you some of the most popular components consumers desire while removing any fluff from the package. Simply put,  you get a quad-cab, 4X4 with a HEMI for single cab,  2WD pricing.

We have had the good fortune to sample other Ram 1500s at various events sponsored by Ram.

We spend a week driving and getting to know the vehicles that we review and sometimes we discover some unexpected surprises.

Here are the top three unexpected surprises of the new 2013 Ram1500.

Editor’s note: We used the 2013 Ram1500 Express Quad Cab 4X4 as a grocery runner, taxi cab and used it to haul a motorcycle. It did everything we asked it to do with aplomb and we were impressed at its overall capability.
