On the road

Like all the other models in the 1500 family, the Big Horn version is a real charm on the road, regardless of its condition! Whether you opt for the V6 or the V8 — our test model — you'll appreciate the lively acceleration as well as the responsiveness of the 8-speed automatic transmission, whose close ratios allow you to get the most out of the engine.

Despite the imposing size of this truck, we appreciated its maneuverability and its smooth ride, helped here by a spacious interior and the most comfortable seats. Without lying, we would have spent more time inside not only because of the comfort, but also for the user-friendliness of the cabin and its many conveniences.

These include the UConnect system with an 8.4-inch screen (optional, 5-inch standard), steering wheel audio controls, 4-way adjustable front seats, air conditioning and more.

You will also find several standard safety features, such as a rear view camera and cruise control, while you can add optional blind spot monitoring, Park Sense parking assistance and much more.

In summary, the 2022 RAM 1500 Big Horn is the ideal truck if you want a truck that offers very good skills as well as a spacious and elegant interior. Whether for work or for leisure, this RAM 1500 model will be your best ally!
