2016 RAM 3500 Tradesman

The 3500 is Ram's heavy-duty pickup, the one you step up to when a half-ton just isn't enough for serious towing and hauling. It drives like a big truck, with a commanding view and a ride that's firm when empty but settles down once you've got weight behind it. Inside, the cab is genuinely spacious, and even work-trim models get a comfortable bench seat and straightforward controls. With regular, crew, and mega cab options plus multiple bed lengths, you can set up the 3500 to match how you actually work. The Tradesman is the work-ready trim, skipping the chrome and leather of a Big Horn or Laramie to keep the price down and the focus on function. Its 6.4L I8 pairs with automatic transmission and four-wheel drive, giving you the torque to pull heavy trailers without breaking a sweat. Standard steel wheels and vinyl flooring mean you can hose out the cab without worrying about carpet stains.
