When it comes to light-duty, full-size pickups, there are only a few good models available on the market. So, it isn’t too difficult to narrow down your choices. If you are looking for a powerful truck that has a top-rated towing capacity, then you need to turn your attention to the 2022 Ram 1500 lineup. When pitted against the 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, it is very easy to see which model is superior in terms of hauling.
Â
First, the Chevy Silverado 1500 is available with our different engine options. Depending on which one you are looking at, the hauling range is somewhere between 4,036 and 4,399 (8,900 and 9,700 lbs). Meanwhile, the bed can hold a payload weighing up to 1,047 kg (2,310 lbs).
Â
On the other hand, the Ram 1500 offers a stellar hauling performance. With the 5.7-litre V8 motor (with or with the eToruqe mild hybrid system), it can tug up to 5,783 kg (12,750 lbs) with no problem. Finally, the maximum payload is almost the same at 1,043 kg (2,300 lbs).

If you are looking for a strong work truck that can pull the most weight, then you need to set your sights on the new 2022 Ram 1500 pickup. Compared to the 2022 Ford F-150, it offers a higher capacity for hauling. Plus, you can find one right now at Energy Dodge in SK!
Â
The Ram 1500 can tow up to 5,783 kg (12,750 lbs) without breaking a sweat. This estimation is with a 4x2 drivetrain and the 5.7-litre HEMI V8 rumbling underneath the hood. Meanwhile, the 3.0-litre EcoDiesel V6 follows closely behind with the ability to pull up to 5,696 kg (12,560 lbs). As for the maximum payload, the 1,521 litre (53.7 cu-ft) bed can hold 1,043 kg (2,300 lbs) of cargo.
Â
On the other hand, the Ford F-150 can tow somewhere between 2,267 and 4,989 kg (5,000 to 11,000 lbs). There are a few different motors to choose from, so the range varies greatly. However, none of them can compete against the Ram engine lineup. Plus, the maximum payload capacity is capped at 1,015 (2,238 lb).

If you are in the market for the most powerful light-duty pickup, then you should take a peek at the 2022 Ram 1500 lineup. Compared to the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500, it is stronger and far more capable.
Â
Both trucks can be fitted with several unique powertrains. The Ram 1500 starts off with a 3.6-litre V6 from Pentastar that delivers 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque with an added 90 lb-ft for launch. Meanwhile, the Sierra 1500 base uses a weaker 4.3-litre V6 that makes only 285 hp and 305 lb-ft of torque.
Â
Next, the Ram 1500 can be fitted with a 5.7-litre V8 with or without eTorque. Each version pushes out 395 hp and 410 lb-ft of torque. On the other hand, the Sierra 1500 has a smaller 5.3-litre V8 that produces 355 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque.
Â
At the top of the line for the Ram is a 6.2-litre supercharged V8 that generates 702 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque. Both are Best-In-Class outputs. Finally, the Sierra 1500’s best motor is a 6.2-litre V8 that churns out 420 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque.

If you are searching for a strong pickup that offers the best output in its class, then you need to be looking at the 2022 Ram 1500 lineup. Compared to the 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 models, it provides more robust performances with its V8 engines.
Â
The one thing that these two light-duty trucks have in common is that they can both be fitted with an array of motor options. However, the V8 selection for the Ram is far superior to that of the Chevy.
Â
The Ram 1500 Sport, Rebel, Laramie, Limited Longhorn, and Limited all come standard with a 5.7-litre HEMI V8. Coupled with an 8-speed automatic transmission, it pushes out 395 hp and 410 lb-ft of torque. On the other hand, the Chevy Silverado 1500 uses a smaller 5.3-litre V8 that is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. It delivers a mere 355 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque.
Â
If you opt for the Ram 1500 TRX, you will find a supercharged 6.2-litre HEMI V8 growling underneath the hood. Pumping out a staggering 702 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque (Best-In-Class for both estimations), you have heads turning every time you step on the accelerator. Meanwhile, the Chevy’s largest motor is the 6.2-litre V8 that produces only 420 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque.

When it comes to full-size, light-duty pickups, the amount of power the truck puts out on a standard level is very important. It determines just how strong and capable the vehicle is without any added bells and whistles. Comparing the 2022 Ram 1500 to the 2022 Ford F-150 is the perfect example.
Â
The base engine housed inside the Ram 1500 is Canada’s favourite 3.6-litre V6 from Pentastar. Complete with an 8-speed automatic transmission and the innovative eTorque mild hybrid system, it delivers 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. Plus, it also has the ability to produce 90 lb-ft of launch torque, which makes acceleration extremely robust. As for towing, the 4x2 drivetrain can pull 3,496 kg (7,710 lbs), and the 4x4 version can handle 3,383 kg (7,460 lbs).
Â
On the other hand, the Ford F-150 starts the trim lineup with a smaller 3.3-litre V6. Paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, it generates 290 hp and 265 lb-ft of torque. That’s significantly lower than the Ram. The hauling limit is around 2,267 kg (5,000 lbs), and it doesn’t have any extra juice for launching.
