The 2001 Chrysler/Dodge Ram Pickup 1500-2500-3500 is a line of full-size pickup trucks produced by DaimlerChrysler. This generation of Rams was a departure from the previous models, offering a more modern and refined design. The 1500, 2500, and 3500 models were available in various cab configurations, including regular cab, extended cab, and crew cab, all paired with a choice of bed lengths. Powertrains were equally diverse, offering gasoline V6 and V8 engines as well as powerful Cummins turbodiesel options. The 2001 model year saw some significant changes, including revised front and rear fascias for a more aggressive look, updated interior materials, and the addition of new safety features such as side airbags. The 2001 Ram Pickup was built on a robust, fully boxed frame designed for heavy-duty hauling and towing. The suspension was a classic combination of coil springs up front and leaf springs in the rear. Power was delivered through a variety of transmissions, including a 4-speed automatic, a 5-speed automatic, and a 6-speed manual. The Ram's reputation for durability and practicality made it a popular choice among both fleet operators and individual buyers. Its spacious cab and versatile cargo bed made it suitable for a wide range of tasks, from everyday commuting to demanding work applications. While the 2001 model year may be considered relatively old, the Ram's robust construction and readily available parts make it a reliable and affordable option for those seeking a capable workhorse.
