Comparing Capabilities

Both the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and RAM 1500 are capable of towing a ton of additional gear, but the Chevy truck wins out by sheer numbers alone. The RAM 1500 offers two different bed sizes, either 67 inches or 77 inches depending on your preference. The Chevy Silverado 1500 has three available bed options, and they're all bigger than the competition - 68 inches, 78 inches, or a whopping 96 inches when fully equipped.

When it comes to towing, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 wins once again. At its maximum capacity, the RAM 1500 can tow up to 12,750 lbs. When you opt for the turbo-diesel engine on the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, you'll receive a maximum towing capacity of up to 13,300 lbs. - this is decreased to 13,200 lbs. if you stick with the V8 engine instead.

When driving a pickup truck, it's important to have a wide range of technologies to support you.
