今年秋天,卡车销售的持续放缓已经开始带来年终的储蓄,为购物者提供了寻找交易的机会。尽管在巨大的皮卡上找到一个不错的价格似乎很愚蠢,例如,我们最近测试的杂货店已经满载的双重轮撞RAM 3500,但这并非不可能。

对于需要拖曳,拖拉和移动的用户,这么大的卡车成本是如此之大。我们的2016 RAM 3500以56,825美元的基本价格到达,其中包括机组驾驶室,长盒子和四轮驱动。这款巨大的皮卡的窗户贴纸为76,090美元,还配备了6.7升康明斯涡轮柴油机(8,995美元),并带有该发动机,是重型艾森六速自动变速器(2,595美元)。双后轮胎增加了$ 1,200。

操纵了这种方式,Ram 3500 provides a large range of power: The diesel engine sports up to 385 horsepower and 900 lb-ft of torque, while the payload capacity of 7,390 lb and tow rating of 31,210 lb offer plenty to the imagination.

Off the road, this vehicle moves around without difficulty, though, naturally, its long wheelbase needs some space to effect tight turns. Even with very little towing or hauling, the Ram proved to be a very capable highway truck, as well, with interior comfort and technology that rival most passenger vehicles on the road.

在燃油经济性方面,制造商不需要估计这么大的卡车消耗量。但是,在我们为期一周的测试驱动器中,我们在1,168英里的高速公路旅行中计算了每加仑16.1英里。

A basic model of this truck—part of Ram’s Tradesman series—starts at $32,285, with dealers offering up to 12% off list price on many 3500s. If this one-ton workhorse appeals to your company’s stable, look for such incentives, as they are likely to stick around this year.
