2021 Ram 1500 vs Chevy Silverado

Everyone who is in the market for a full-size pickup truck is well aware of how many great options there are to choose from. That’s why, here at North Star CDJR, we want to zero in on some of the top competitors to make this choice easier than ever. We’re checking out the 2021 Ram 1500 and the 2021 Chevy Silverado. The Ram 1500 comes into the 2021 model year with a new TRX off-road model, a special anniversary edition, an optional digital rearview mirror, an available air suspension, and a great lineup of engines. The Silverado tries to keep up with enhancing camera trailer features, wireless Apple CarPlay, a less tech-savvy interior, and a few available engines. Keep reading to figure out which of these trucks you should be driving home in.

2021 Ram 1500 Power & Handling

Power is the name of the game when it comes to any truck, which is why we want to start off strong by introducing you to the engine line you’ll find with the 2021 Ram 1500. All of these engines work with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The standard engine is a 3.6-liter V6, producing 269 lb-ft of torque and 305 horsepower. You can also get a turbodiesel 3.0-liter V6, which offers 480 lb-ft of torque. The other two engines in this lineup include a 5.7-liter V8 and a supercharged 6.2-liter V8. Whether you get two- or four-wheel drive, you will be sure to get the hard jobs done efficiently.

Chevy tries hard to keep the Silverado competitive with the Ram 1500. You’ll be able to find a standard 4.3-liter V6 engine, which can only output 285 hp and 305 pound-feet of torque.
