Russ Darrow RAM of West Bend – What to Know About the 2027 RAM 2500

The 2027 RAM 2500 is built for drivers who expect serious capability, refined comfort, and modern technology in one heavy-duty pickup. Whether you are comparing towing numbers, researching diesel versus gas power, or looking for a truck that can support business needs, the RAM 2500 stands out as a confident choice. It brings together proven strength, advanced trailering features, upscale cabin options, and work-ready engineering designed to make demanding tasks feel more manageable.

At Russ Darrow Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM of West Bend, we know heavy-duty truck shoppers want clear answers before choosing a pickup, and we are proud to help local drivers explore the RAM lineup while serving Plymouth, Richfield, and Oostburg. The 2027 RAM 2500 offers a compelling mix of capability and comfort, making it a strong fit for contractors, fleet operators, RV owners, agricultural professionals, and anyone who needs a truck that can handle more than the average daily drive.

Heavy-Duty Power That Means Business

The 2027 RAM 2500 continues to focus on what heavy-duty truck buyers value most: torque, towing strength, payload confidence, and long-term durability. One of the headline powertrain options is the available High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 engine. With up to 430 horsepower and 1,075 pound-feet of diesel torque, this engine is engineered for drivers who regularly tow, haul, and operate under demanding conditions.

Paired with the TorqueFlite® HD eight-speed automatic transmission, the available Cummins diesel setup gives the RAM 2500 smooth, controlled power delivery. That matters when pulling a large trailer, accelerating with cargo, or navigating changing road grades. The truck is also available with the 6.4L HEMI® V8 engine, which remains a strong gas-powered option for shoppers who prioritize payload capacity, responsive everyday performance, and a simpler ownership experience compared to diesel.

  • Available diesel strength: The High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 delivers up to 1,075 pound-feet of torque.
  • Maximum available diesel towing: When properly equipped, the 2027 RAM 2500 can tow up to 20,000 pounds.
  • Best-in-class gas payload: The RAM 2500 offers up to 4,580 pounds of payload capacity when properly equipped.
  • Transmission confidence: Available TorqueFlite® automatic transmissions help manage power smoothly and efficiently.

Towing and Hauling Features Designed for Real Use

Power is only part of the story. A great heavy-duty truck also needs the right systems to help drivers connect, control, monitor, and maneuver trailers with confidence. The 2027 RAM 2500 offers a thoughtful collection of available towing technologies, including Trailer Reverse Steering Control, available Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring, and an available Fifth-Wheel/Gooseneck Prep Package. These features are especially valuable for drivers who tow campers, equipment trailers, horse trailers, enclosed cargo trailers, or commercial loads.

The available Class-Exclusive Rear Auto-Level Air Suspension is another standout feature. It can raise or lower the rear of the truck to help align the hitch and trailer, making hookup easier and helping the truck maintain a more composed stance when loaded. For drivers who tow frequently, this kind of convenience can make a noticeable difference over time.

  • Trailer Reverse Steering Control: This available system helps guide trailer direction while backing up.
  • Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring: Available live pressure readings can be displayed digitally for up to four trailers.
  • Fifth-Wheel/Gooseneck Prep Package: This available setup adds factory-installed hardware support for serious towing needs.
  • Digital Rearview Mirror: Available camera views can help improve visibility behind the truck or trailer.

A Cabin Built for Comfort, Space, and Productivity

Heavy-duty trucks are often judged by what happens outside the cabin, but the 2027 RAM 2500 makes a strong case inside as well. The interior can be configured for crews, families, or solo professionals who need storage, connectivity, and comfort. Available seating options include front bench or bucket seats, multiple rear-seat folding configurations, and Mega Cab® models with Class-Exclusive reclining rear seats and Class-Exclusive forward fold-flat rear seats.

Higher trim levels bring a more premium feel with available leather seating, real wood and aluminum accents, and a quiet, refined driving environment. An available 900-watt Harman Kardon® Premium Audio System with 17 speakers and Interior Active Noise Cancellation helps turn the cabin into a more relaxing and enjoyable place to spend time. For a truck built to work hard, the RAM 2500 does an impressive job making every mile feel comfortable.

Smart Storage and Work-Ready Utility

The 2027 RAM 2500 is designed with practical storage solutions that help keep tools, gear, and everyday items organized. Available rear in-floor RAM bins, a fold-flat load floor, rear cubby storage, and flexible seat configurations give drivers more ways to make the cabin work for the task at hand. These details can be especially useful for people who use one truck for both business and personal life.

Outside, the truck bed can be equipped with available LED lighting integrated into the cargo lamp and bed, helping drivers access gear more easily in low-light environments. Available onboard power is another major advantage, with RAM 2500 pickups offering best-in-class available onboard power of 2.4 kilowatts. That can help support tools, devices, and equipment when a separate power source is not convenient.

  • Available in-floor storage: Rear RAM bins help organize tools, straps, gear, and personal items.
  • Available onboard power: Best-in-class available 2.4-kilowatt power can support jobsite and recreational needs.
  • Available bed lighting: LED lighting helps improve visibility in the cargo area.
  • Accessible exterior features: Available power side running boards, a Mopar® bed step, and a dampened tailgate add everyday convenience.

Safety and Confidence Behind the Wheel

Capability is more valuable when it is paired with confidence.

Class-Exclusive standard Adaptive Cruise Control can help maintain a selected following distance and can adjust speed down to 0 mph, even with a trailer attached.

Available Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking can warn the driver when a potential collision is detected and may apply braking assistance if needed. Other available systems include LaneSense® Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist, Drowsy Driver Detection, Traffic Sign Recognition, and a 360° Surround View Camera. For a truck of this size and capability, visibility and driver-assist features can make a meaningful difference.
