Dec. 13, 2012 - PRLog -- The pickup truck is available to test drive and to purchase at Jackson Dodge Chrysler Jeep.
Jackson Dodge is pleased to announce that the 2013 Ram 1500 (http://www.jacksondodge.com/2013-dodge-ram-1500.htm) has been named the  Truck of the Year for 2013 by Motor Trend. The vehicle has been quite popular at the Medicine Hat, Alberta dealership since its release earlier this year with all types of drivers. To date, the Ram 1500 is the longest running truck in Canada.

The 2013 Ram exceeds in the pickup truck segment with best-in-class fuel economy (7.8L/100km), thoroughly modern technology tailored to assisting the working driver, luxury interior, performance, exceptional design, and incredible value.

The new 1500 pickup truck offers drivers three different powertrain options. The standard is a 3.6L V6 engine offering 305 hp, which has been improved from the 215 hp V6 offered for the 2012 model year. It comes paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission controlled by a revolutionary e-shift knob rather than a gearshift lever, allowing increased storage space in the front. When equipped with this powertrain, the Ram 1500 can tow up to 2948 kilograms.

There are also two different V8 options. The first is a 4.7L V8 with an output of 310 hp while the other is a 5.7L V8 capable of producing 395 hp. Towing capacity is up to 4740 kilograms with the 5.7L engine variant.

While the new Ram pickup (http://www.jacksondodge.com/new-inventory/index.htm?reset...) is very adept as a work truck, it also offers one of the best interiors available in a modern pickup truck featuring wood grain trim and leather upholstery at its highest trim level. Seats are quite comfortable even in the back row, which features spacious legroom.

For drivers needing storage inside the cabin, the Ram 1500 offers a large center console, storage compartments under the rear part of the car that are watertight, bins underneath the backseat, and also features the lockable RamBox in the truck bed above the rear fenders.

Drivers can choose between six different trim levels and several different body styles. There are regular, extended, and crew cab choices alongside different bed options to go with each cab.

The 2013 Ram 1500 is available to test drive at Jackson Dodge Chrysler Jeep located at 1500 Strachan Road in Medicine Hat.
