Lee Dodge Commack

Our four-wheel-drive 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT Crew Cab was propelled d by a powerfull 5.7-liter "Hemi" V8 powerplant , which delviers an excellent 390 horsepower and 407 pound-feet of torque. An optional five-speed automatic transmission with manual-shift abilities delivers this power to all four wheels, with selectable low-range gearing.

 

 

When we tested it on our test track , the new Dodge Ram roared from zero to 60 mph in just 7.3 seconds, respectably fast if we take into consideration its massive 5,800-pound curb weight. Its maximum speed of 55 mph didn't exactly set our hair on fire, but the Dodge Ram's ponderous handling characteristics are naturak for a automobile of this weight and size.
