Reviewer score 90% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from cnet have found:
The Ram 3500 is as comfortable and tech-filled as any other new Ram pickup. Parking a truck this large is a bit of a chore, but made easier thanks to the available 360-degree camera with a bird's-eye view. The dual-rear-wheel setup adds over a foot of width to the already big Ram.
Pros
  • Gorgeous 12-inch screen
  • Powerful diesel engine
  • Comfortable to drive
Cons
  • Lack of tech
