Performance

Ride Quality

You likely spend more time navigating city streets in Dalton, PA than you do hauling lumber or equipment. The Ram 1500 makes getting to your destination a pleasure, with a car-like ride that's smooth and relaxing. Its standard rear coil-spring suspension absorbs bumps in the road, so you don't feel the impact much in the cabin. An available Active-Level Four-Corner air suspension has five automatic height settings for even more precision and enhanced comfort, towing, and aerodynamics.

Both the Ford F-150 and Chevy Silverado 1500 come standard with leaf spring suspensions that don't soak up road imperfections as well as the coil-spring systems in the Ram 1500. If you value riding comfort on your regular drives around town, the Ram 1500 is your optimal truck.

Engine Power and Availability

The Ram 1500 offers brawny engine options that can handle anything from pulling a camper to passing on the highways around Scranton, PA. These powertrains include a V6, a V8, and a turbocharged in-line six that generates 540 horsepower. The turbocharged 540-horsepower in-line six engines are available in RHO, Limited, and Tungsten trims.

The Chevy Silverado 1500's strongest engine is a 420-horsepower V8. The Ford F-150 offers a high-output V8 engine with 720 horsepower, but it's only available in the top-of-the-line Raptor R trim. The F-150's next strongest engine only produces 450 horsepower.

Safety Technology

Nothing is more important than the safety of you and your family. Dalton, PA drivers will breathe easier knowing that the Ram 1500 comes standard with five advanced active safety features, including parking sensors for easier, safer parking.

The Ford F-150 only comes with four standard driver assistance technologies, while the Chevy Silverado 1500 has just three standard driver aids. Neither of them comes with parking sensors.

Interior

Cabin Refinement

You'll love driving or riding in the Ram 1500, which has a stylish cab with upscale materials and creature comforts. Higher trims have genuine leather seats, laser-etched accents, and fresh color schemes. Archbald drivers appreciate the premium stitched leather upholstery and authentic wood trim in Tungsten models.

The Chevy Silverado 1500 has sporty or upscale design elements in its higher trims, but they don't match the tier of appointments you'll see in the Ram 1500. The Ford F-150 also has refined materials in its upper-wrung models, but they don't feel quite as luxurious as the top-tier Ram 1500 trims.

Passenger Space

Although all these full-size trucks offer crew cab body styles with seating for up to six occupants, the Ram 1500 gives you more space to stretch out and relax. Taller passengers in Wilkes-Barre, PA will like the 45.2 inches of rear legroom in Ram 1500 Crew Cab versions - more than any other truck in its class.

Ford F-150 trucks have spacious interiors, but their SuperCrew cabs only have 43.6 inches of rear legroom. The Chevy Silverado 1500 provides just 43.4 inches of rear legroom in Crew Cabs.
