Marietta has a way of putting a truck through its real-world paces. One minute you are moving through the streets around Historic Downtown Marietta and the next you are heading toward Kennesaw Mountain with equipment in the bed or a trailer behind you.

Think about loading equipment before heading toward the Kennesaw Mountain area, pulling a trailer through Cobb County, or filling the bed for a weekend project. The Ram 1500 gives you a wide range of configurations so the truck can be selected around the work you actually plan to do.
When you pop the hood of the 2027 Ram 1500, Marietta drivers get access to an elite range of powerplants engineered to dominate any task. Choose from the reliable 3.6L Pentastar® V6, the twin-turbocharged fury of the 3.0L Hurricane Inline-6 in Standard or High Output configurations, or the iconic available 5.7L HEMI® V8 with eTorque.
The Pentastar® V6 delivers 305 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque, while the Hurricane Standard Output scales up to 420 horsepower and 469 lb-ft. For drivers demanding peak performance, the Hurricane High Output rules supreme with 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft of relentless torque.
The Tradesman strips away the fluff to focus entirely on raw utility, giving you heavy-duty equipment built for intense work environments, demanding job sites, and heavy trailer hauls. Outfitted with standard gear like the ParkView® Rear Back Up Camera and a Class IV Receiver Hitch, it ensures you have precise control when backing up and locking onto a trailer.
The Big Horn gives you more flexibility to personalize your Ram 1500, with additional appearance, wheel, interior, and equipment options beyond the work-focused Tradesman. You can choose between 4x2 and 4x4 configurations, along with several cab and bed combinations:
For drivers who want luxury built into a workhorse, the Laramie delivers striking leather-trimmed seating, available heated and ventilated leather front seats, and an immersive Alpine® or an available Harman Kardon® audio upgrade.
When you want to take the path less traveled, the Rebel dominates with its 420-horsepower 3.0L Hurricane engine, rugged 1-inch lift and Bilstein® shocks!
The Ram 1500 offers Crew Cab and Quad Cab configurations. The Crew Cab provides a spacious second row for passengers, while the Quad Cab places more emphasis on cargo capacity while still providing rear seating.
The Crew Cab is available with either a 5-foot-7-inch bed or a 6-foot-4-inch bed. The 5-foot-7-inch box provides a more compact configuration, while the 6-foot-4-inch box offers additional cargo length.
Yes. The Ram 1500 can be a practical choice for road trips, offering a spacious cabin, comfortable seating, available technology, and multiple cab and bed configurations. Its available engine options and towing capability also provide flexibility when traveling with passengers, cargo, or a trailer. The 2026 Ram 1500 was named Best Full-Size Pickup for Road-Tripping in the 2026 Best Adventure Vehicles awards from U.S. News & World Report.*
