What is the RAM 1500's Towing Capacity?

Continuing the legacy of its iconic lineage, the 2024 RAM 1500 boasts legendary performance across three available engines. Lima area drivers can work hard and play hard with the best-in-class available maximum hybrid towing capacity of up to 12,750 pounds, only available when outfitted with the class-exclusive 5.7L HEMI V8 engine with eTorque. A Closer Look at Towing with the 2024 RAM 1500 This incredibly capable engine's eTorque technology blends performance-enhancing and efficient technologies with the addition of an available extra 130 pound-feet of torque (410 lb-ft total) to achieve the mind-blowing maximum mark of towing capacity. The 2024 RAM 1500 boasts a 98% high-strength steel frame, which also plays a huge role in the model's towing capabilities - the model offers up to 2,300 pounds of maximum payload when equipped with the 3.6L V6 engine with eTorque, ensuring you get high-level performance with every engine choice. Pure power is sure to turn heads, but leaving out key technologies to complement capability can cause you to sell the 1500's potential short - take the available Trailer Reverse Steering Control System, for instance. This technology helps make reversing simple, letting you steer the trailer with the trailer steering knob as the system controls the truck's steering wheel. Available tech like this presents the opportunity to make your jobs several times easier, allowing you to get the most out of your prized RAM 1500.

Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, RAM Winter Service Checklist in Lima

Schedule CDJR Winter Service in Lima It's important to schedule routine maintenance for your vehicle year-round, but things can get a little more difficult when the temperature starts to drop. If you've been on the hunt for a good place to get RAM winter vehicle maintenance, or anything similar, you can rest easy knowing Tom Ahl Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is ready to help - our service center in Lima is ready to provide a checklist to prepare you for those frigid months. How to Prepare My Jeep For Winter in Lima, OH 1. Test Parts Ahead of Winter A good start to your CDJR winter service checklist is testing the effectiveness of vital parts, in order to keep your vehicle in peak form. Cold weather can significantly decrease a car battery's health, so remember to test it ahead of winter to ensure your vehicle doesn't stall out. Test your braking system as well - if it isn't in good shape, this could lead to slipping while driving through hazardous road conditions. 2. Install Winterized Components In the winter, certain parts of your vehicle may be more vulnerable to damage, so it's a safe bet to replace them with specialized components for the cold. For example, winter tires have better traction, while winter-grade windshield wipers improve visibility while it's raining or snowing. Regardless, replacing worn tires or wiper blades ahead of winter is always a good idea. 3. Check Fluid Levels Topping off and checking your fluid levels - such as antifreeze, wiper fluid, and oil - can help with maintaining safe driving and fuel efficiency. Antifreeze's purpose is the most obvious, but the exact concentration can vary depending on the climate and model of your vehicle, so go through your owner's manual to learn the right amount. Oil can also thicken in the cold while wiper fluid can freeze on the windshield, so it may also be in your best interest to replace these with winter-grade variants to help stave off serious complications moving forward.

Schedule Air Filter Replacement Service in Lima Air filters are important for maintaining a pristine atmosphere while behind the wheel. If you've been endlessly searching for "Jeep air filter replacement near me", or anything similar, our Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and RAM service center has exactly what you're looking for - learn more about why air filter replacement is so important for CDJR vehicles and stop by for high-quality service in Lima. Chrysler Air Filter Replacement in Lima, OH Why Do I Need Air Filters? Air filters are responsible for delivering fresh, outside air through the interior of your vehicle and into the HVAC system. Without an effective filter, the air quality inside your vehicle decays, leaving anyone inside susceptible to harmful particles. Not only do air filters make the interior more comfortable, but they also protect the engine. Good air filters provide consistent, clean air to the engine's combustion chamber, which is essential for optimal performance. A dirty air filter forces the engine to work harder and decreases the lifespan of your vehicle. When Should I Replace My Air Filters? How often you replace your air filters varies depending on the make and model of your car. Chrysler and Jeep vehicles should get new air filters every 30,000 to 45,000 miles driven, while Dodge and RAM vehicles should have them replaced every 15,000 to 30,000 miles. Of course, driving conditions may affect these numbers, so check your owner's manual for more specific recommendations and look out for signs of your air filters deteriorating: Persistent unusual, foul, stuffy, or chemical odors inside your vehicle Reduced power and efficiency when using AC Heating up your vehicle takes longer than usual, or heating system isn't functioning well Strange noises that accompany climate control use Where to Change My Vehicle's Air Filter in Lima, OH If your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or RAM is in need of air filter replacement service, don't hesitate to schedule an appointment with our service center in Lima, OH.
