<a href="https://oconnorchrysler.com/inventory?newUsed=New&make=RAM&model=1500"><img src="https://oconnorchrysler.com/images/upload/February_2022/Latest_News/2022_Ram_1500_Towing.jpg"alt="Black 2022 Ram 1500 towing a speedboat near a lake, with cloudy skies in the background”/></a>As the top-rated pickup in its class for towing, the new 2022 Ram 1500 houses a robust motor that delivers a stellar performance under various conditions. Currently available at O’Connor Chrysler in BC, you can get your hands on one of these light-duty trucks today!
 

Although the vehicle is offered with four different engines, the one that has the top haul capacity is the 5.7-litre HEMI V8. Standard on the Sport, Rebel, Laramie, Limited Longhorn, and Limited trim levels, it yields up to 395 hp and 410 lb-ft of torque. Mated with an 8-speed automatic transmission, it will provide you with a smooth experience every time you get behind the wheel.
 

There are also two drivetrains to pick between - 4x2 and 4x4. The 4x2 system boasts the highest pulling rate capped at 5,783 kg (12,750 lbs). Meanwhile, the 4x4 version is able to handle an attachment weighing up to 5,175 kg (11,410 lbs).
 

This particular motor can also be coupled with the eTorque mild hybrid system, which adds 130 lb-ft of torque for improved acceleration at low speeds. This enhancement is typically found on models with the GT Package.

However, you can add the highly sought-after Off-Road Group to further enhance this pickup’s abilities in the wild. Currently in stock at our dealership in Chilliwack, you can grab one of these models today!
 

First, this suite brings a heavy-duty suspension into the mix that can help soak up the impact of rough terrain. Meanwhile, the electronic locking rear axle allows both back wheels to rotate at the same time. This ensures proper grip on slick or jagged surfaces. Also assisting with maintaining the appropriate amount of traction is the hill-descent control mechanism. You will be able to easily glide down a steep slope without faltering.
 

To guard against damage to the underbelly, skid plates have been installed. These act as shields to the transmission, steering, transfer case, fuel tank, and other more delicate components. You will also notice the tow hooks on the face of the Ram 1500, which can be used to move felled trees out of your path or to pull your friend’s less capable truck out of the mud.
 

Get in touch with our agents at O’Connor Chrysler in BC to learn more about the 2022 Ram 1500 lineup and its optional packages - including the Off-Road Group.

Adding elements to improve the vehicle's overall payload and towing capacities, you will love this suite. Visit O’Connor Chrysler in BC today to learn more. 
 

The first key component that is included in the Bed Utility Group is the cargo divider. This allows you to section off the inside of the bay to keep items neatly organized, separating tools from sports gear and groceries from work-site stacks. 
 

Next, tie-down loops have been integrated into the box. These ensure that smaller objects will stay put when you stray into stop-and-go traffic. LED lighting is also provided so that you can check on your payload at night without having to locate a torch.
 

Then, there is also a spray-in bedliner that acts as a shield to prevent scratches, dings, and dents. It also guards against rust damage from inclement weather. Finally, some trim levels will also receive a centre-mounted deployable step for the bed. This assists with climbing into the box to load or unload cargo - assuring an easier payload experience.
 

Contact us today to learn more about the 2022 Ram 1500 and its Bed Utility Group. Be sure to ask about our current financing opportunities as well.
