Suspension and Handling
Superior design and engineering give the RAM 1500 a suspension that is much smoother and controlled than the Silverado. Here are some features that separate the RAM from the Silverado:
- Standard front/rear stabilizer bars: Help control during cornering
- Coil Springs in front/rear suspension: Create a smoother, safer ride
- Standard automatic load leveling: Ensures ride height stays level
- Drift Compensation Steering: Automatically accounts for road conditions
- Longer wheelbase: 144.6 inch wheelbase (crew cab, short bed) makes for sharper, more precise handling
Cargo Access
In terms of ease of access and versatility of cargo space, the RAM 1500 jumps ahead again. With an ergonomically sound, low lift-over bed, the RAM 1500 is safer and easier. Put them side-by-side and you can easily see the difference:2019 RAM 1500 | 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 | |
