Should I get a gas or diesel Ram 2500?

When you make up your mind to invest in the remarkable Ram 2500 for sale, there's only one dealership you will need. Our Valencia Ram dealer provides an impressive selection of heavy-duty Ram trucks. With six trim levels, three cab styles, and two bed lengths to choose from, you'll have plenty of decisions to make at Valencia Auto Center. You'll also need to decide between two potent engines for your next Ram truck for sale - a gas and a diesel powertrain. Our Ram dealer near you would like to help you choose between a gas or diesel Ram 2500. Let's explore the benefits and disadvantages of each engine for the Ram 2500!

 

What engine is in a 2500 Ram?

There are many things to consider when shopping for a new truck for sale near you. One of the most important choices you'll make is selecting a powertrain. The Ram 2500 for sale offers two beefy engine options.

  • 6.4L HEMI® V8 - The gas powertrain for the Ram 2500 for sale puts out a horsepower of 410, and 429 lb/ft of torque. You'll enjoy a maximum towing capacity of 17,540 lbs, along with 4,010 lbs of payload.

  • 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 - If you opt for the diesel truck for sale, you'll get a horsepower of 370, and a brawny 850 lb/ft of torque. The towing capacity for the diesel Valencia Ram is a jaw-dropping 20,000 lbs, and the payload capacity is 3,160.

 

Is it better to buy a diesel truck or gas?

Diesel trucks for sale offer superior torque and towing ability, but gas trucks are typically faster and better at handling. Which fuel type is most suitable for your Valencia Ram? If you're shopping for the Ram 2500 for sale, it's safe to assume you're in the market for a work truck. Let's take a look at the awesome advantages that diesel trucks offer to customers looking for a rugged work truck.

  • Better torque output - If your tasks demand heavy-duty performance, you can't do better than a diesel Ram truck for sale. Gas powertrains can't match the unrivaled torque offered by a diesel engine. You'll be able to tow and pull the heaviest of loads with ease in your diesel Ram 2500.

  • Superior fuel economy - Diesel powertrains offer better fuel efficiency, due to their lean combustion process. If you need to drive long distances on the highway, a diesel truck will be more efficient than a gas model.

  • Long-lasting and reliable - Buying a truck for sale near you is a huge investment. While diesel Rams are slightly more costly to purchase, they'll outlast their gas counterparts every time. If you want a Valencia Ram that can run well past the 300,000 mile mark, you'll want to choose diesel.
