2017 Ram 2500 Diesel Has the Best Fuel Economy

Posted on May 31, 2017 by baysideadmin

Pickup Trucks has decided to evaluate the fuel economy of heavy-duty pickups. As they note, fuel economy is not a top priority for some truck owners. The major talking points when someone is interested in learning about a HD pickup is more along the lines of wanting to know capability and towing. In doing these tests of fuel economy, PickUp Trucks discovered that the Ram 2500 diesel is a clear winner against the competition.

“As you might expect, the smallest diesel engine on the lightest truck did well on the uploaded fuel-economy drive.” The 2017 Ram 2500 was put up against the 2017 Nissan Titan XD and other trucks in its segment and managed to beat them out.

Ram Caves Contest Builds Dream Garages for 3 Lucky Winners

Posted on March 13, 2014 by baysideadmin

Last year, Ram Trucks announced that it would be sending out designers Timothy Dahl, Brett McKay, and Bob Vila to three lucky Ram owners to give them a proper “Ram Cave.” Every new garage would be built to meet the needs of each winner, whether if it means starting with a bare-bones garage or giving a great garage an extra special touch.

Yesterday, the Ram Trucks channel premiered the videos of all three winners getting their garage makeovers. Timothy Dahl went to meet Lee in Portland and show off the new Ram 1500. Bob Vila headed out to Prior Lake, Minnesota to meet with Rachel, who had won the contest for her father Dan, and show off the Ram 2500. Finally, Brett McKay took off for Maryland with the Ram 3500 to meet with Randy and his family. Randy’s wife had been diagnosed a year ago with breast cancer, and with the new Ram Cave, he will be able to continue his work on Ram Trucks and be closer to his family.

Ram Sponsors Kentucky Derby for Fourth Consecutive Year

Posted on May 3, 2013 by baysideadmin

This weekend is the Kentucky Derby, and as people are placing their bets and predicting the winner, Ram is getting ready for its fourth consecutive year as the Derby’s official sponsor.

In a post on RamZone, Ram Trucks expressed their gratitude for the honor of sponsoring the Kentucky Derby, stating, “We hope that in time our presence at the Derby will become customary as seersucker suits and the garland of roses.”

For years, Ram’s line-up has catered to a variety of needs from light-duty truck for trailers and ATVs to heavy-duty trucks built for towing horse trailers. They understand the needs of truck drivers and more specifically of horse trainers and owners. Ram’s sponsorship of the Kentucky Derby is the perfect match between product and event, a partnership that will hopefully continue for years to come.

The Kentucky Derby will air live on NBC from 4 PM to 7 PM eastern time.

To view our Ram line-up, go online to Bayside Chrysler Jeep Dodge. Our entire new and pre-owned inventory is also viewable. Like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, and subscribe to us on YouTube for more Ram news and for monthly parts and service specials.

Ram 2500 CNG: Green Alternative for Truck Drivers

Posted on November 24, 2012 by baysideadmin

The conversation after Hurricane Sandy for many of us in New York seemed to circle around climate change. Governor Cuomo said as much during the numerous press conferences he held following the disaster. Whenever global warming is talked about, it’s no doubt that green energy is just around the corner. No matter your position on what happenings of the environment of late, it’s hard to deny that car makers shouldn’t be doing all they can to help with keeping emissions from their vehicles down.

Ram is answering the call that many seem to be putting out for engines running on alternative fuel technology. The Ram 2500 will now be the first in the truck line-up that Ram has planned to have CNG (compressed natural gas). It is the only OEM-built, CNG-powered truck that is made and sold in the US.

The Ram 2500 CNG is a bi-fuel vehicle. That means it uses compressed natural gas as the primary source of fuel and switches over to gas only after the CNG has been depleted. CNG is identical in mileage to that of vehicles on unleaded regular gas. The bright spot to that is that the cost is 30 percent lower than the average price of a gallon of gas.

Breaking it down even further in comparison, CNG costs around $1.25 per GGE (gasoline gallon equivalent). On CNG, the Ram gets 301 miles on the highway with the range getting boosted to 966 miles with the backup gas supply. CO2 emissions are reduced by 20 percent and tailpipe emissions see a drop of more than 50 percent.

Ram Wants to Hear Your Stories of Glory

Posted on August 10, 2012 by baysideadmin

Ram is a brand that is all about excellence, going above and beyond for our customers every day. We work to make our trucks powerful, safer, and more comfortable, and we love to recognize others who go above and beyond. The RAMActs asked our customers to share their stories of random acts of manliness, and with our new Stories of Glory contest, we want to shine the light on unsung sports heroes. (And reward them with some great prizes too!)

“Stories of Glory” are any inspiring sports stories of yourself, your child, or someone you know. They can be the story of a high school coach who changed your life or your child’s first home run. To have your story considered, go to http://blog.ramtrucks.com/stories-of-glory/ and in 800 characters or less, tell your story. You can also include video or pictures if they are available, but they are not required. One winner will receive an all-expense-paid trip to Connecticut and will be interviewed on The Dan Patrick Show.

High School Grad Stands Out with Ram

Posted on June 11, 2012 by baysideadmin

On graduation day, it is easy to blend into the masses of robed figures and mortarboards, but a high school grad in Virginia found a way to stand out and proclaim his love for Ram trucks.

Robby Lyons has been a fan of Ram trucks for years. His family owns a 2004 Ram 2500 HD, and he drives a 1989 Power Ram W100 Series. When asked about his love of Rams, he says, “I sit in [my] truck and I get chills. The power and durability combined with handling – it just blows me away.” Besides owning a Ram truck, he also ran his own junior dragster up until 2009, and he plans to continue drag racing with his father and uncle, serving as the team’s mechanic.

It is only appropriate then that Robby bolted a Ram head hood ornament to his graduation cap. While most people found the hood ornament amusing, some teachers raised objections to the hat. Robby was eventually given approval to wear his souped-up mortarboard to the ceremony, and since then, he has received local and national news coverage including a feature on the RamZone blog.
