The 2017 RAM 1500 Quad Cab is a prominent contender in the fullsize pickup truck segment, competing primarily with the Ford F-150 SuperCab, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Double Cab, and the GMC Sierra 1500 Double Cab. Prices start off at MSRP $30,595 with the base Tradesman trim, reach all the way to the top Laramie trim carrying an MSRP of $43,495, for a total of 7 trims being offered. With multiple powertrain and cab options available across multiple trims, there is a RAM 1500 for everyone. The RAM 1500 Quad Cab offers exciting powertrains, each offered as both an RWD and 4WD. The base engine is a 3.6L V6 engine capable of making 305 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque. This engine is rated for a towing capacity of 12,900 pounds. The second engine is a larger 5.7L V8 engine making 395 horsepower and carrying a towing capacity of 15,800 pounds. Both engines are mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission.
