Heavy Load, Safe Journey: Navigating the Roads with Confidence in Your Pickup Truck Operating a pickup truck can be intimidating, especially for those who haven't spent much time in them before. Many uninitiated drivers have found driving a truck, particularly when towing a load, a difficult task. While there is a learning curve to safely and effectively driving a pickup, it doesn't have to be as daunting as you might believe. Our team at Chris Nikel Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Fiat (CJDRF) have put together this helpful guide, so keep reading for comprehensive information on how to drive a pickup truck with a heavy load. Load Distribution and Balance a truck and horses on a dirt road by a beach by Sean Quillen is licensed with Unsplash License One of the primary reasons people purchase a pickup truck is to haul or tow heavy or oversized objects. If you've recently bought a truck, you may be eager to test its limits and start moving things. But before you load your truck's bed, you must know the correct procedures for proper load distribution and balance. To protect your truck's bed, you'll need a bed mat or liner. This safeguards your truck bed from rust and other issues with exposed metal as well as scratches, scuffs, and dents. You can load your truck safely after installing your bed mat or liner. Place the heaviest items you're hauling near the truck's cab, or at the back of the bed. Move the heaviest items to the truck's center. This will help to distribute your load's weight evenly across your pickup. The more even the weight distribution, the less wear and tear you'll exert on your truck's suspension and drivetrain. A vital factor in balancing your load's weight is to place oversized or longer items on either side of the truck's bed. You should place lighter boxes on top of heavier ones while being careful not to stack them too high. Following these tips will ensure you're distributing your cargo's total weight as evenly as possible. You must understand your truck's payload when loading your truck bed. According to Kelley Blue Book, a truck's payload is the maximum total weight it can safely carry. This means that the payload is actually the combined total weight of the truck's cabin and the load in the bed. Be aware of your truck's specific payload capacity and never exceed this figure. If you overload your vehicle, you could jeopardize its performance, your safety, and the safety of other road users. Adjusting Driving Techniques Once you've properly and safely loaded your truck and are ready to move off, you'll need to adjust your driving techniques. These adjustments are critical when braking and accelerating. While reversing your truck, you'll likely have a limited field of vision due to your load. If you're used to driving a smaller vehicle, your field of vision will seem especially restricted. While backup cameras and extended mirrors help, you should reverse slowly and double-check where you're going. You should also increase your braking distances when driving with a heavy load. Trucks require more time to come to a complete stop, and this increased stopping distance is even more important when towing or hauling a load. Allow plenty of space between your truck and the vehicle in front of you to keep you and whatever you're carrying around Broken Arrow safe. Another adjustment you'll need to make when driving a truck with a significant load is to use your gas judiciously by accelerating slowly and carefully. The average pickup truck packs a ton of power, especially compared with the average sedan. It's vital to respect this extra potency and avoid accelerating quickly. Careful acceleration will improve your fuel economy and keep you and your truck safer by preventing skidding and loss of control. Because trucks are bigger and longer than other vehicles, you'll also need to adjust how you turn and maneuver. Taking a turn at too high a speed or too sharp an angle is dangerous, as trucks have less mobility, so this can result in a rollover or accident. Take turns slowly and ensure you consider the extra length of your vehicle. You should complete maneuvers carefully and at low speed, or you'll risk an accident. Safe Driving Practices You must also modify your speed by adjusting your braking, acceleration, and maneuvering. Maintaining a moderate and consistent speed is essential when hauling a load, as this helps you to keep a safe following distance and adapt for longer braking times. Avoiding high speeds will also help prevent extraneous strain on your truck's suspension and brakes, which could compromise your safety. Vehicle Maintenance and Inspection You must check your tire pressure and brakes before hauling a heavy load. Loading your truck with extra weight, even if it's under the vehicle's payload capacity, can cause your tires to bulge under the stress. And bulging tires can cause poor steering and handling, increasing your risk of an accident. Consequently, you should check your tires frequently for weight-caused strain and related damage. You should also inspect your brakes before hauling a heavy load. Regular brake inspections ensure optimal performance and responsiveness when you need it the most. Your brakes are vital when hauling a load, as you'll experience increased brake times and distances. These inspections, which our professional technicians in the Chris Nikel CJDRF service department can perform for you, are necessary for your safety.

As electric vehicles (EVs) continue to dominate the road, make sure to keep an eye out for the highly anticipated 2024 Ram EV lineup. It features a variety of all-electric truck designs that cater to the needs of any driver, whether you want to upgrade your daily commute or need something for heavy-duty towing. Gone are the days of sacrificing power and performance for eco-conscious purchases. This lineup is sure to impress, whether you're an EV advocate or an avid truck lover. The latest Ram EVs offer the same impressive towing capacity you know and love from this manufacturer while including all the perks of owning an EV. Our Chris Nikel Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram (CJDR) Fiat team wants to share more about this heavy-hitting lineup and how you can get in one today. The 2024 Ram EV Lineup The Ram Revolution concept sets the stage for the next generation of electric trucks, trailblazing the EV industry, and unleashes power and performance like you've never seen. When you're looking for a classic, all-American truck, there's no better option than the Ram 1500 Revolution Electric Vehicle (REV). This massive vehicle will command the road, offering show-stopping size, weight, and digital features. The 1500 REV is predicted to be a far-ranging EV, so there's no need to have "range anxiety." You can relax knowing its impressive battery has plenty of charge for your journey beyond Broken Arrow, wherever it leads. More than just a power-house battery on wheels, you can rest assured that the 1500 REV will also offer the powerful towing capacity and road-dominating power you've come to expect from Ram trucks. Its outstanding size also makes room for a spacious front trunk, which Ram expects will provide 15 cubic feet of storage. Don't be fooled by the fact that it's an EV. The 2024 1500 REV's available 5.7L Hemi V-8 engine comes equipped with Ram's Torque Mild Hybrid Technology system, supplying incredible power and performance. What's the Towing Capacity of the 2024 Ram EV Lineup? When you're in the market for a truck, towing capacity is probably one of the primary elements that you're considering. Fortunately, Ram expects the 1500 REV to have a towing capacity of 14,000 pounds and a payload capacity of 2,700 pounds, so you can feel confident this truck will offer serious strength for whatever adventures lie ahead. Whether it's work or play, the Ram Revolution Concept era of EVs has you covered, prioritizing your specific needs as a driver regarding the payload, range, charge time, and towing. Aside from the heavy lifting, the eTorque Mild Hybrid Technology system you'll find in the Ram 1500 REV also makes it easier than ever to receive the torque you need for city driving while providing you with performance-enhancing technologies. Crew Cab models also come available with Active-Level Four Corner air suspension that grants you maximum efficiency when approaching highway speeds by lowering the vehicle automatically to reduce drag. What Impacts Towing Capacity? Just like standard gasoline-powered trucks, various factors can impact an EV's towing capacity, including weight distribution, battery range, and available towing packages. Elements such as terrain and weather may also affect a vehicle's towing capacity. For example, driving in fair conditions typically lets you get the most power from your EV. We all know that heavy towing burns fuel faster. It also impacts an EV's charge, so it's important to factor in their driving distance and the amount you plan to tow. However, even when hauling a heavy load, with the outstanding battery ranges of the latest Ram EV truck lineup, you know you're getting the maximum towing capacity from your 2024 vehicle. Advantages of Electric Towing You may be wondering why you should opt for an EV when it comes to performance and towing capacity. While many assume gas-powered trucks offer the most reliable and impressive hauling capabilities, there are actually several advantages to choosing an electric towing system. Not only do trucks with extensive battery range offer significant strength behind the wheel, but they also feature instant torque delivery, smooth acceleration, and quieter operation than most standard trucks. This means you can have the best of both worlds when getting in a 2024 Ram EV truck. Rest Easy With Ram's Electric Charging Infrastructure If you're interested in owning an electric truck, it's vital for your vehicle to possess robust electric charging infrastructure. This not only guarantees longer, reliable charges but also helps support the truck's impressive towing capacity. Whether you want to haul a towing trailer cross-country or transport your boat to the lake for a day of summer fun, the 1500 REV has got you covered. With Ram's commitment to supporting its customers with accessible charging solutions, you can count on worry-free towing journeys and extended driving range. The 2024 Ram 1500 REV is equipped with a smart charging port ready to handle three levels of charging, compatible with Level 1, 2, and 3 chargers, making it easier than ever to hit the road in no time. Capable of charging 110 miles in a mere 10 minutes, the 1500 REV offers impressive power and performance right at your fingertips. When you're in a hurry, you can skip the pump with an EV and take advantage of Ram's outstanding electric charging infrastructure. When you want to hit the road in style, don't forget to check out the 2024 Ram 1500 EV lineup. You no longer have to choose between the towing capacity you want from an all-American truck and the environmental and cost-saving benefits of an EV. With Ram's latest releases, you can rest assured that your driving choices are best for the environment and your wallet.

Ram's ProMaster full-size van was starting to show its age, but the all-new 2023 model marches on with a complete redesign from the ground up. The most notable improvements are its updated powertrain, revised exterior design, improved cargo-hauling capability, and a range of tech features. This significantly updated box on wheels represents endless possibilities for both commercial and recreational applications. Whether you need a cargo hauler, camper van, mobile office, or delivery vehicle, the ProMaster is ready to rise to the challenge. Already popular with small businesses, the ProMaster will become even more attractive to commercial buyers thanks to its impressive payload capacity and a new all-electric model set to debut in 2023. Read below as our team at Chris Nikel Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram FIAT takes an in-depth look at the features that make the 2023 ProMaster an excellent choice for the cargo van segment. View our inventory of New Vehicles, or if you have any questions, give us a call at (539)-766-8990 today! Powertrain, Transmission, and Performance New 2023 Ram ProMaster Image By RAM Under the hood, a 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine with 276 hp and 250 lb-ft of torque powers the 2023 ProMaster. It mates to a nine-speed automatic transmission that routes power to only the front wheels, an improvement on the old six-speed unit, to deliver improved fuel efficiency and a smoother, more refined ride. As previously mentioned, Ram will introduce a fully electric version of the ProMaster with the 2023 model, further improving fuel efficiency, reducing emissions, and giving businesses a zero-emission option for their fleets. On the performance front, the ProMaster doesn't disappoint, with a 6,910-pound maximum towing capacity and a payload rating of up to 4,680 pounds. That's significantly higher than the previous generation. You can take on oversized cargo and heavier loads more confidently. The zero to 60 mph sprint has also improved over the previous model and now takes just 8.1 seconds, which is legitimately fast for a cargo van. Overall, the 2023 Ram ProMaster is a substantial step up over its predecessor and a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable and capable cargo van. Interior Design Ram has completely redesigned the interior of the 2023 ProMaster, with a focus on improving ergonomics and cargo-hauling capabilities. The driver's seat is flattened and moved forward to give you an expansive, wide-angle view of the road. The dash layout is much simpler, and the center console is now bigger, providing plenty of storage space for small items. The second-row seating can now accommodate up to three people, making it a great choice for hauling a crew. If you need to maximize cargo hauling, you can choose the cargo-hauling interior layout, which features two flat walls with plenty of tie-downs and straps to secure whatever cargo you need to move. Exterior Design The 2023 ProMaster incorporates a fresh exterior design, a much-needed improvement from the previous generation model. The refined boxy design has an updated front fascia featuring a larger grille and more modern LED headlights and fog lamps, giving the new ProMaster a more aggressive and stylish look. The new Super High roof configuration also helps to make the new ProMaster stand out from the competition. It offers over 6 feet of cargo height, making it easier to stand up and move around inside the cargo area. The Black Appearance Package sports a black grille, badges, and bezels, giving the ProMaster an even more menacing look. The new black machined face and silver alloy wheels complete the "black on black" look. You can also choose Ceramic Gray or Spitfire Orange exterior color options for added style. The result is a cargo van that looks as good as it performs. Infotainment and Connectivity With technological advances even in the commercial vehicle segment, you need a cargo van that keeps you connected, and the 2023 ProMaster delivers. The standard infotainment system is a 7-inch touch-screen unit with Uconnect 5 software. This setup provides access to Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and SiriusXM options for those long work trips out of Broken Arrow. There's also an even larger optional 10-inch unit if you need a bigger screen. This system allows for over-the-air updates and offers a subscription-based Wi-Fi hotspot, giving you internet access even on the road. So you can stay connected no matter where your business takes you. Safety and Driver Assist Technologies Safety is a top priority in the commercial vehicle segment, and the 2023 ProMaster offers a long list of features that make it one of the safest cargo vans on the market. It has a standard suite of driver assist technologies, such as forward collision warning, drowsiness detection, traffic sign recognition, and crosswind assist. New for 2023 is an optional parallel/perpendicular park assist system to help you park easily. This system can identify a suitable parking space and guide the vehicle into the space with minimal effort. Also on offer is active drive assist, a Level 2 semi-autonomous driving system that combines adaptive cruise control with lane-centering technology to keep the vehicle in its intended lane and at a safe distance from other vehicles. It also offers automatic high beams, so the headlights will switch from low to high beams when it detects oncoming traffic. A 360-degree camera system, a digital rearview mirror, and cornering fog lights are also available to help you see your surroundings more clearly. With its updated exterior design, comfortable interior, extensive tech features, and driver assistance systems, the 2023 Ram ProMaster is a great choice if you're looking for a reliable and safe cargo van. Chris Nikel Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram FIAT is proud to offer the 2023 Ram ProMaster in all its configurations, including the Super High Roof Van, the Black Appearance Package, and the limited-edition Spitfire Orange.

Are you looking for a truck capable of going off-road while offering you all the luxury features you could desire? That's exactly what the Ram 1500 TRX can do, and it now has a new Sandblast Edition for you to admire. This new model promises to help you stand out from the crowd with unique interior and exterior colors. Our truck experts at Chris Nikel Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fiat have looked at what this new Ram has to offer Tulsa drivers. View our inventory of New Vehicles, or if you have any questions, give us a call at (539)-766-8990 today! What Makes the Sandblast Edition Stand Out From the Ram 1500? New 2022 Ram 1500 TRX Sandblast Edition The Sandblast Edition is available as an optional upgrade to the Ram 1500 TRX trim, which is the top trim in the lineup for this truck. It's powered by a 702-horsepower engine that easily handles whatever towing or off-roading challenge you throw at it. You'll need to add the Level 2 Equipment Group to access the new edition, ensuring its interior features are as luxurious as they come. The Sandblast Edition's most obvious feature is its unique paint color, which helps it to blend into desert conditions. In addition to the paint, the Sandblast Edition rides on 18-inch black wheels that are unique to this pickup edition. Inside the cabin, you'll notice the frost contrast stitching and the Sandblast Edition badge on the center console. Finally, the Sandblast Edition has unique graphics on its infotainment and other displays. Ram 1500 TRX Engine and Performance The Sandblast Edition's engine is a 6.2L supercharged V-8 capable of beating just about any other pickup in a sprint. The 702 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque it produces help propel the Ram 1500 TRX from zero to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds. The engine also gives you the power to handle rock crawling, sand dunes, or a heavy trailer. In addition to this powerful unit under the hood, the Sandblast Edition has four-wheel drive to help you cope on all surfaces. No other Ram 1500 trim offers four-wheel drive as standard, which is why the TRX is always the first choice for off-roaders. Ram has equipped its newest addition to the lineup with an off-road chassis and strengthened air filter to help the Sandblast Edition deal with all sorts of terrain, including dusty deserts and trails. Fuel efficiency isn't the Ram 1500 TRX's strong point, but you're probably not too concerned by that if you want to take advantage of the Sandblast Edition's capabilities. This truck achieves 10 mpg on city roads and 14 mpg on the highway. Ram 1500 Cargo and Passenger Options The Sandblast Edition shares the TRX's cab and cargo bed configuration: a five-seater crew cab with a short cargo bed. The crew cab is the Ram 1500's largest cab option, providing cavernous seating in both rows for adult passengers. The cargo bed measures 5 feet 7 inches in length and has over 4 feet of distance between the wheel wells, making it perfect for loading plywood and other work supplies. Inside the cabin, the Sandblast Edition gets genuine leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and power adjustments for the front passenger seats. The driver benefits from a heated steering wheel, a surround-view parking camera, and front and rear parking sensors. If you need a larger cargo bed, you may want to check out the other options in the Ram 1500's lineup. Other trims offer the option of a longer cargo bed measuring 6 feet 4 inches in length. This bed can be paired with the crew cab or the quad cab, which still has a rear row but more compact seats. If your primary reason for purchasing a Ram 1500 is for the job site, you may want to consider the Ram Classic 1500. It includes an extra-long bed measuring over 8 feet and a regular cab with a single bench seat. Infotainment and Safety Features You won't be able to miss the infotainment screen in the Sandblast Edition since it measures 12 inches and is linked to a 10-speaker premium stereo. Other attractive features are smartphone compatibility with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a Wi-Fi hotspot, satellite radio, and Bluetooth. On top of the main infotainment display, you also get a head-up display to keep up with speed limits, directions, and other important information while driving. Ram gives its TRX trim a great selection of driver assistance features to help you stay safe while on the road. In the Sandblast Edition, you get adaptive cruise control, a feature that automatically adjusts your speed on the highway to maintain a safe distance from others. Other safety features worth noting include forward collision warning, pedestrian detection, and lane-keep assist. The surround-view parking camera will come in handy if you need to line up your truck perfectly when you're towing a trailer or need to maneuver carefully into a tight spot.

With powerful performance, luxurious interior comforts, and advanced safety features, the Dodge Ram 1500 has been the top choice of many drivers who want a capable pickup truck. If you're planning to upgrade to the newest Ram 1500, you may want to wait for the release of the 2023 version, which promises enhanced features and state-of-the-art technology. Check out this quick guide to see what you can expect from the upcoming 2023 Dodge Ram 1500. View our inventory of New Vehicles, or if you have any questions, give us a call at (539)-766-8990 today! 2023 RAM 1500 Truck Performance 2023 RAM 1500 Truck While much is still unknown about the 2023 Dodge Ram 1500, the most notable change could be its powertrain options. The 2022 Ram 1500 currently offers four powertrain options. The standard 3.6-liter V-6 engine delivers 305 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque. Available engines include a 5.7-liter V-8 engine, outputting 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque, a 3.0-liter turbo-diesel V-6 engine, and a supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 engine. This powerful engine, only available on the Ram 1500 TRX, delivers an impressive 702 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque, making it an ideal choice for those heavy-duty jobs. In 2023, the Ram 1500 may add another engine option to its fleet. Stellantis, the company that owns Ram, recently introduced a new 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine named the Hurricane, according to Edmunds. The Hurricane will combine the power of a V-8 engine with the efficiency of a six-cylinder engine. Stellantis has pledged to cut its carbon emissions in half by 2030, and this engine will help the company achieve its goal. If the new Ram 1500 doesn't offer the Hurricane as an engine option, it may debut as part of the truck's next major redesign. RAM 1500 Exterior The Dodge Ram 1500 could receive innovative exterior updates in 2023, but don't expect a complete overhaul. Instead, these changes will likely include new grilles, refreshed bumper styling, and modified taillights. The top-level Limited trim currently features bi-LED projector headlights, which could become a standard feature or an option for other trims in the 2023 model. The 2022 Dodge Ram rides on standard 18-inch or 20-inch wheels, with 22-inch wheels available, depending on the trim you choose. These options should resemble the 2023 models. A multifunction tailgate, which features 60/40 split swing-away doors that allows you easy access to the truck bed, will likely remain available for the 2023 Dodge Ram 1500. RAM 1500 Interior The Dodge Ram 1500 is known for its luxurious, high-quality interior features, and the 2023 model will be no different. While there may be slight changes to the layout or materials, the interior of the 2023 Dodge Ram 1500 will likely resemble its 2022 predecessor. After all, it's hard to improve on perfection. The Ram 1500 offers various interior materials and colors based on the trim you choose. These options range from standard cloth or vinyl seats to premium black or tan leather upholstery. Enhanced technology and cleaner air will make your next ride safer. In 2023, a 7-inch driver information digital cluster display may become standard for more trim levels. The high-tech display could replace the analog dash on some or most 2023 models. A new air filtration system, released in 2022, filters 95% of air particles and should carry over into the 2023 Ram 1500. An available panoramic sunroof that lets fresh air and sunshine into the cabin should still be an option on some 2023 trims. 2023 RAM 1500 TruckTechnology In 2022, the Ram 1500 debuted a modern technology system, the Uconnect 5C, which comes as standard or optional in most trims. This system provides infotainment and customizable features via an 8.4-inch or 12-inch touch screen. This attribute is expected to be offered in the 2023 Ram 1500 models. The Uconnect 5C system features updated user interfaces, towing-specific navigation, in-car Wi-Fi, and connected service updates to address issues or add new elements quickly. It integrates with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto so that you can access your apps, music, podcasts, and much more. Other technology features that will probably remain as standard in the 2023 Dodge Ram 1500 include auxiliary ports in the media center, multiple USB charging ports, and 115-volt outlets to charge your devices. Getting where you need to go has never been safer and more fun. 2023 RAM 1500 TruckSafety The 2022 Dodge Ram 1500 is packed with advanced safety and driver-assistance features to give you peace of mind, and the 2023 version will be no different. These features come as standard or optional on most 2022 Ram 1500 trims and should still be offered in 2023: Electronic stability control and roll mitigation: These features work together by applying brakes and reducing engine power to correct oversteering and wheel lift. Together, they help keep your truck centered on the road. Forward collision warning: When your truck detects a potential front-end collision, this feature sends an alert to help you react and will even bring the vehicle to a stop if necessary. Blind spot monitoring: This feature provides a visual alert when vehicles are in your blind spot, helping you change lanes on the highway safely and confidently. Rear cross path detection: Parking or maneuvering in other tight spaces can be challenging. The rear cross path detection scans the area around your truck to make sure there are no other vehicles or obstacles in your path. 2023 RAM 1500 TruckPrice and Release Date So far, a release date hasn't been set for the 2023 Dodge Ram 1500.

Ram Towing - Basic Capabilities Ram has some of the strongest engines in the nation powering their pickups. The Ram 1500 is capable of towing 7,730 to 12,560 pounds, depending on the engine you choose. The Ram 2500 can tow from 14,370 to 16,870 pounds. The 3500 can tow from 13,490 to 37,100 pounds. Each of these trucks is clearly capable of towing some of the heaviest trailers, boats, and campers made by American manufacturers. Securing the load and the safety of everyone involved is of paramount importance to the Ram family. Let's take a look at the many high-tech ways your load and safety are secured when you tow with Ram towing technology. Active-Level Four-Corner Air Suspension Systems Active-level four-corner air suspension systems are advanced suspension systems geared toward optimizing ride height in relation to tow load. The air suspension system works automatically but can also be manually controlled. It has five air lift positions to choose from. When you are hitching your load to your Ram 1500, 2500, or 3500, it is best to set it to the lowest level. This will make the hitching process easier. Once it is in place, the automatic aspects of the system can be engaged to perfectly level your truck with your load, greatly increasing stability for both. This system is also perfect for going over rough, higher than normal terrain. You can raise the base of your Ram manually to allow your truck to pass over otherwise impassible pathways. If you have elderly family members that have difficulty entering and exiting large trucks, this suspension system, combined with running board step use, can help them enter and exit more easily. The five ride positions of the Ram air suspension system are Normal at 8.7 inches of clearance, Aero Mode at 8.2 inches of clearance, Off-Road One at 9.7 inches of clearance, Off-Road Two at 10.7 inches of clearance, and Entry and Exit Mode at 6.7 inches of clearance. Forward Collision Warning and Assistance System This is likely the most life-saving item on our list, though all do something considerable to increase the safety of towing with a Ram truck. Towing a massive load can make coming to a stop at the right time difficult if traffic conditions change swiftly and unexpectedly. Computerized aid can go a long way towards ensuring that your RAM comes to a safe stop when it really needs to. When the forward collision warning and assistance system detects a dangerously oncoming vehicle, it will alert the driver with visual and audio warnings. It will simultaneously hit the brakes in an attempt to halt the pickup and its load before any impact. These kinds of systems decrease front to rear crashes with injuries by 27%. When paired with automatic braking, as on all three above-listed Ram models, those accident rates with injuries decrease by an amazing 56%. As a result of these results, insurance companies are happy to reduce their rates on trucks with these systems. Trailer Tow Format Mirrors with Spotter Lamps You may have seen these long-arm tow mirrors on Ram trucks before. They are mounted to the truck body in such a way that they can be extended outward, greatly increasing visibility around towed trailers, campers, and boats. Spotter lamps are rear-facing lamps that illuminate all that is being towed. This increases safety for other drivers on the road since it clearly reveals the width of the towed load and the locations of the extended side mirrors. Backup Safety Technologies Trailer Reverse Steering Control Ram trucks don't have to be limited to steering wheel steering. They can be outfitted with a trailer reverse steering control. This control system allows drivers to steer the trailer as the wheel steers the truck, greatly increasing fine maneuvering capabilities. Paired with the camera system in the next subsection, it is an extremely useful tool for getting your truck and load into tight spots safely. Cargo-View and Backup Cameras The Ram infotainment system is capable of a great deal more than playing your favorite music and giving you access to GPS navigation. It can also receive live video feeds from your Ram's cargo view and backup cameras. This allows you to steer your vehicle and load without having to twist your body around to view what is behind you. These features are especially useful if you're towing a load large enough to entirely obstruct your normal central rearview mirror. Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross-Path and Trailer Detection To further improve driver awareness when towing a full load, Ram offers blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-path detection and trailer detection. The blind-spot monitoring unit continuously scans your vehicle's blind spots and alerts you when a vehicle moves into them. The rear cross-path detection system will alert you if a vehicle crosses your rear path as you are backing up. The trailer detection module will let you know if your trailer is not properly connected or is otherwise having connection issues. Multi-Function Tailgate This innovative tailgate is available on the 1500, 2500, and 3500 model Ram trucks. It opens outward rather than downward at a 60/40 split, so you can access your truck bed, cargo, and toolbox easily, even when you have your Ram's maximum tow load attached. As you can see, this cluster of towing safety and utility features work together to make Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 trucks some of the safest towing trucks on American roads today. To find out more about what these systems can do, contact the professionals at Chris Nikel Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Fiat. Our seasoned and kind team will gladly answer all of your questions.
