The exterior styling of the Ram 3500 features enhancements such as new grille designs, new projector headlamps that improve light spread and distance, as well as new LED tail lamps. For drivers interested in experiencing the ultimate towing capacity, a new class-exclusive 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Tow Prep Package is available that allows for ease in fifth wheel attachment or in mating to a gooseneck trailer. Also available in regards to towing is the optional power folding outside mirrors that aid the driver’s view of the payload as well as providing better vision of traffic and obstacles along the side of the vehicle.
