While each Ram motor is dependable and capable, choosing the right one can be a game changer. In today’s Northwest Indiana Buyers Guide, we demystify Ram Truck engines and help you decide which engine is right for you!

Your Northwest Indiana Guide to 2024 Ram Truck Engines

“You’ll probably never discover the best paths without getting lost.”

To learn what questions Ram buyers are asking every day, we turn to Brad Hallal. Brad is both a Ram off-road enthusiast and the GM at the largest volume Ram Truck dealership in Northwest Indiana. He feels too many people buy Ram trucks without the benefit of knowing which of these beasts is best for their unique needs.

Hallal believes the blame should be pointed at dealers who attract buyers with bogus price leaders and then push them into buying a Ram without knowing the facts. “With so many options, from diesel and gas, v6 and v8, and then throw in the different transmissions, it’s enough to make your head spin. It’s our responsibility as Ram dealerships to slow things down and make sure the customer discovers which engine and transmission is right for their unique needs.”

But Hallal also wants people to know that there is nothing wrong with admitting that you are uncertain about the differences between the different 2024 Ram motors.  Hallal reminds us of the famous Ram quote, “You’ll probably never discover the best paths without getting lost.” In the below video, Hallal discusses frequently asked questions his Ram customers ask every day. Hallal hopes his video and this article will help you find answers that will help you find your best path!

2024 Ram Truck Engines | Heard around NWI

While it would be difficult to top the most capable Ram Truck engine line-up ever, the new Hurrican would clearly add depth to the Ram arsenal.

According to Hallal, “When you build a purpose-built truck, you don’t fix something that isn’t broken. We believe these 3 truck engines give us the best lineup in the industry.”
