If you have been thinking about buying a heavy-duty pickup for hauling purposes, then you need to compare the 2021 Ram 2500 to the 2021 GMC Sierra 2500HD. While these two vehicles share the same class, one is far superior to the other in terms of towing.
Â
The total weight that either model can handle will vary depending on the powertrain, body style, and hitch accessories. However, we can look at the general range of both trucks to give you a better idea of what to expect.
Â
For the Ram 2500, you can pull between 4,771 and 6,822 kg (10,520 and 15,040 lbs). As for the Sierra 2500HD, the maximum is capped at 6,577 kg (14,500 lbs).
Â
While they both offer your choice of gasoline or diesel engines, it is clear which one is more practical for completing hard tasks. Whether you need this robust transport for moving livestock or bringing a full-size RV on a camping trip, the Ram 2500 is the way to go.

There are only a few heavy-duty trucks available on the market these days, and picking the right one can be difficult. In this head-to-head comparison between the 2021 Ram 2500 and the 2021 Silverado 2500HD, you will get to see which one has more to offer in terms of power.
Â
Growling under the hood of the Ram 2500 is a 6.4-litre V8 engine that generates 410 hp and 429 lb-ft of torque. Equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission and your choice of RWD or 4WD, this beast delivers a stellar performance on the roads of BC.
Â
On the other hand, the Silverado 2500 HD is fitted with a 6.6-litre V8 motor. Pumping out 401 hp and 464 lb-ft of torque, it doesn’t have the gusto that the Ram has. It also comes with a 6-speed automatic transmission and RWD, so the capability is at a lower level as well.
