Diesel trucks have earned a reputation for unmatched power, durability, and efficiency, making them a favorite for drivers who need serious performance on the road or at the job site. With stronger torque for towing, longer-lasting engines, and impressive fuel economy for heavy-duty work, a diesel truck can handle just about anything you throw its way. Here at Bedford Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we offer a selection of diesel trucks, each designed to tackle your toughest tasks while providing a smooth and reliable ride. We're confident you're going to fall in love with one of them. Keep reading below as we break down the key benefits of driving a diesel truck and why it could be the perfect fit for your lifestyle.

Why Choose a Diesel Truck?

Diesel trucks are built for serious work, and their power is the biggest reason many drivers choose them. The Ram 2500 and 3500 diesel models feature the legendary 6.7L Cummins Turbo Diesel I6 engine, delivering up to 420 horsepower and an incredible 1,075 lb-ft of torque. This allows the 3500 to tow massive loads—up to 37,100 pounds when properly equipped—making it perfect for hauling large trailers, boats, or construction equipment. Even the Ram 2500 diesel offers impressive towing capabilities, with a maximum towing capacity of up to 20,000 pounds. The combination of high torque, horsepower, and a robust transmission ensures these trucks handle heavy-duty tasks smoothly, whether you're climbing steep grades, navigating rough terrain, or cruising on the highway.

Longevity and Reliability You Can Depend On

Diesel engines are designed to last, and the Ram lineup proves it. The Chassis Cab diesel models, for instance, are engineered for commercial and industrial use, capable of handling long hours of continuous work while maintaining peak performance. The Ram 3500 and 2500 diesel engines are built with heavy-duty components, including forged steel crankshafts and reinforced cylinder heads, which help them withstand the stress of towing and hauling over hundreds of thousands of miles. These trucks are renowned for their durability, resulting in fewer repairs, longer engine life, and a dependable vehicle for both business and personal use. For professionals who need a truck that can keep up day in and day out, diesel is the clear choice.

Efficiency Without Sacrificing Capability

Ram diesel trucks utilize advanced technologies, including high-pressure common-rail fuel injection, turbocharging, and cooled exhaust gas recirculation, to maximize power and optimize fuel consumption. Even with a full payload or towing a large trailer, these trucks maintain strong efficiency compared to gasoline engines. The Chassis Cab models, designed for business applications, offer customizable configurations that help optimize fuel use while meeting your specific hauling or towing needs. Whether you're commuting, running errands, or driving across the state with a heavy load, a diesel Ram ensures you get the performance, reliability, and efficiency you need.
