Amsterdam-based Dusa markets an attractive caravan tractor. A full size Ram 1500 Pickup with a tow bar that isn't afraid of anything. Ideal as a gray camping equipment that you can enjoy all year round, even when it is not a holiday.
A Ram Pickup with a 5,7L V8 is just about the best available in this class. Made in the USA by the inventors of the pickup. And with a price that gives you a lot of car. The Ram has a double cabin that can comfortably accommodate five people. Both the driver and the passengers lack nothing. There is plenty of head and leg room and the rear row of seats can also be adjusted into a lounge position. The bodywork has 4 doors, allowing the Pickup to be used as a full-fledged passenger car that can do much more than just transport people.
Popular in USA
The Ram used to be called Dodge Ram, but to make the brand name even stronger it is now only Ram, part of the Fiat Chrysler group. At the beginning of 2018, the pickup received a major restyle, making not only the appearance, but also the technology completely up to date. A pickup like the Ram is no longer a rarity on the Dutch street scene, but in the USA they are only really popular. A Ram 1500 is sold there just as easily as an Astra here. Yet the species has a growing number of loyal followers. Rightly so, because a pickup can also be very useful in the Netherlands. It is not without reason that a Ram, which you can hang a lot of weight behind, is a popular companion of boat dealers who all too often have to pull something heavy up a slipway. This makes the car unbeatable as a caravan tractor.
Ram 1500 Pickup Features
Imposing, solid and versatile are the most important characteristics of a Ram 1500 Pickup. A car that gives you the feeling that you can handle anything. The cargo box offers a lot of space, and the interior also has 150 liters of storage space. From double door pockets to a gigantic center console and space under the folding rear seat cushion. You can store things everywhere. A 15-inch laptop simply fits in the center console. USB connections to charge smartphones are plentiful. You can even charge an iPad wirelessly. The Ram 1500 is clearly a car where the designers have taken a good look at what the occupants have on their wish list.
The basic block of the naturally aspirated 5,7 liter V8 has been used for a long time in a wide range of automobiles. The engine is linked to an eight-speed automatic transmission that responds nicely to the gas. The gearbox is quick to downshift and the HEMI V8 is powerful enough to boulder through traffic more than smoothly. The specs are impressive: 400 hp, 555 Nm and a sprint to 100 of around 7 seconds. The top speed is limited to 170 km/h.
Consumption23
The consumption is high, a considerable weight and 8 cylinders are responsible for this. But there is a solution for that too. LPG is almost always installed by Dusa. The two major disadvantages of LPG do not count for a RAM 1500. The tank can easily be concealed as a substructure without any loss of space. And the higher road tax does not apply to a gray license plate. A Ram 1500 Pickup is therefore especially interesting for business driving. The BPM and VAT are determined, but not paid. And that is a win. With a base price of €59.000, the Ram is an attractive alternative to a standard company bus.
