2012 Ram 2500 ST Crew Cab Pickup 4-Door 6.7L

Detailed item info Model OverviewThe Heavy Duty Ram models are offered in three different cab styles--Regular Cab. Crew Cab and Mega Cab--as well as 6'-4" or 8' cargo box lengths. Crew Cab models are designed for occasional backseat use. while Mega Cab models have adult-size backseat accommodations--much like a full-size SUV. The 3500 can include a dual rear wheel (DRW) setup for heavy-duty towing and both versions may be either equipped with a 383-hp. 5. 7L V8 or a 350-hp. 6. 7L Cummins in-line six. The gasoline engine comes with a standard 6-speed automatic. while the diesel offers a 6-speed manual or optional 6-speed automatic. The latter is actually the stronger option for towing. as it makes a mighty 881 pound-feet of torque at just 1500 rpm. The big diesel is also quite efficient while meeting 50-state emissions rules without using exhaust fluids. and it's the only diesel in this class to include an exhaust brake. With either engine. a part-time 4-wheel drive system that includes low range is available. Major trim levels for the Ram HD models include the SL. SLT. Laramie and Power Wagon. Each of these trims comes with the gasoline V8. and all but the Power Wagon can be optioned with the diesel.

Tow ratings range up to 17. 00 pounds. with maximum payload of 5. 30. A new integrated trailer brake control is now included in SLT. Outdoorsman. Power Wagon and Laramie models. and information from the system displays in the in-dash vehicle information center. The interior of the 2012 Ram 2500 and 3500 models can vary quite dramatically. with interior appointments spanning a wide range from a vinyl split bench in base SL models up to premium cloth benches or buckets in much of the lineup and premium leather in top Laramie models.
