2021 Ram 1500 vs 2021 Ford F-150

2021 Ram 1500 vs 2021 Ford F-150 near Frankfort, ILPictured above is the 2021 Ram 1500 with optional features. 

Customers on the hunt for a full-size pickup truck that tops the field with respect to performance, technology, and comfort have a lot to appreciate with the 2021 Ram 1500. By excelling in the areas that matter most, this model has positioned itself as a top contender in this competitive field, so Taylor Chrysler Jeep Dodge is here to explain what sets it apart. To go above and beyond, we’ll explain how this Ram bests the 2021 Ford F-150.

Power & Economy

First, let’s cover the ways in which the Ram 1500 outperforms the 2021 F-150. If you’re seeking remarkable muscle, then the former has you covered with its available Supercharged 6.2L V8 engine that generates a staggering 702 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. of torque. Meanwhile, the same can’t be said about the Ford, as it only offers up to 400 horsepower and 500 lb.-ft. of torque. Switching gears, the Ram also delivers the goods with its 3.0L EcoDiesel 6-cylinder system that achieves a truly impressive 33 MPG hwy1 fuel economy rating. Though the F-150 also has an available turbo-diesel engine, it falls short of the Ram with its 27 MPG hwy2. In fact, its optional hybrid trim also misses the mark with a rating of 26 MPG hwy2

Cabin Tech

From accessibility to entertainment, the 2021 Ram 1500 simply brings more to the table than the 2021 Ford F-150 when it comes to interior technology. For instance, though both pickup trucks place a premium on keeping you engaged, the model from Ram goes just a bit further with its premier 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio upgrade. That way, you can fill the interior with your favorite tunes in exceptional quality! To compare, the truck from Ford ends up just shy of its rival with up to 18 speakers. That being said, the two are evenly matched when it comes to their respective touchscreen sizes, as both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 boast optional 12-inch vertical displays. As a result, you’ll be able to stream music with ease when cruising along Route 30.

Comfort

There’s a good reason why the Ram 1500 is regarded as the “most luxurious” vehicle in its class3. To begin, you have the chance to add optional reclining rear seats to the mix if you’re hoping to keep your guests comfortable for hours on end. With this, they’ll be able to find a suitable position with greater ease over those in the Ford F-150, which lacks such an upgrade. Moreover, this area of the Ram supplies 45.2 inches of legroom, so stretching out for hours on end won’t be a problem. Once again, the Ford F-150 doesn’t come close to this achievement with its rather confining 43.6 inches of second-row legroom.

Now that you know how the 2021 Ram 1500 vs 2021 Ford F-150 near Frankfort, IL, stack up to another, visit Taylor Chrysler Jeep Dodge to see the former in action for yourself. We look forward to meeting with you here at 1497 N State Route 50 in Bourbonnais, IL!

Jessica, who initiated contact was wonderful and Brandon was awesome from the first text And Got answers to all my questions. He really made it easy to know what the car value was and worked with me on my trade-in. Highly recommend Brandon if you go to there to get a new car or used car, good guy. Cody, the finance professional laid out everything nice and clear. Tori helped to set up the app and made sure that I didn’t have any questions about the vehicle. I would highly recommend purchasing your vehicle at Taylor CDJR.

Wonderful experience! So kind even after I accidentally emailed the owner Jim, he was more than happy to help. It was a rainy day and they pulled the car inside to check it out without getting soaked. No hidden fees. Cody had the paperwork ready to go when I arrived. I maybe spent an hour total there. I drove 3 hours to buy my dream car and I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Drove an hour to this dealership because of the good reviews and we were not disappointed. Would highly recommend. From the initial call with Ashlyn, from the salesman Cody was exceptional and felt no pressure to buy. Also worked with Craig, who was honest and didn't try to sell on stuff we didn't need. Frank was awesome, spending a good amount of time to go over the cars features and answering all of my questions. Thank you Taylor Jeep
