2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
2019 Ram 1500 vs. 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
It’s hard to avoid comparing Ram 1500 vs. Chevrolet Silverado 1500 when you’re looking for half-ton trucks. It’s just as hard to justify buying a Chevy after you compare the two. Only the Ram 1500 offers:
- Best-in-Class V8 Towing Rating of 12,750 Pounds
- Class-Exclusive Standard TorqueFlite 8-Speed Automatic Transmission
- Class-Exclusive Active-Level Four Corner Air Suspension
- Best-in-Class Interior Storage Volume
- Best-in-Class Rear Legroom
Capability
You pick up a pick-up because your demands go beyond those of the average driver. Not content with regular performance, you need the capability to tow heavy and carry plenty. The Ram 1500 outpaces the Chevy Silverado in both regards:
- Towing: The Ram 1500 offers a best-in-class V8 towing rating of 12,750 pounds. The Chevy manages up to 12,500 pounds
- Payload: The Ram 1500 carries up to 2,300 pounds. The Chevy carries up to 2,250 pounds.
Are these differences major? No — but why would you settle for second-best?
Performance
Both the 2019 Ram 1500 and the 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 offer three engine options, but only the Ram enhances performance through:
- Class-Exclusive Standard TorqueFlite 8-Speed Automatic Transmission: Optimizes shift changes to ensure faultless performance regardless of driving speed or tow load.
- Class-Exclusive Active-Level Four Corner Air Suspension: As you drive, your suspension will automatically adjust to the changing terrain beneath to ensure exceptional traction.
Interior
Modern trucks should prioritize on comfort just as much as capability, and the
new Ram 1500 is leading the pack. It offers:
- Class-Exclusive Available Reclining Rear Seat
- Class-Exclusive Rear Seat Fold-Down Center Console
- Class-Exclusive Reconfigurable Center Console
- Class-Exclusive In-Floor Storage
Those interior versatility features aren’t just unavailable with the Chevy Silverado — they’re unavailable with every other Ram 1500 rival. Better yet, the Ram delivers:
- Best-in-Class Interior Storage Volume
- Best-in-Class Rear Legroom
Whether arranging all your cargo while working between Round Rock and Cedar Park or taking the whole family on a trip into Austin, you’ll never run short of space.
