New Ram 2500 Heavy-Duty Truck in Springfield, MO

The Ram 2500 is the heavy-duty pickup for Springfield buyers who’ve exceeded what a half-ton can deliver. Whether the application is livestock hauling on a southwest Missouri farm, a commercial service body for a construction business, regular fifth wheel camping with a large rig, or simply consistent towing that demands the composure and capacity of a purpose-built heavy-duty platform — the Ram 2500 is the right answer. Corwin Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram at 3306 East Kearney Street carries a broad selection of new Ram 2500 configurations in Springfield, serving buyers throughout Battlefield, Nixa, Ozark, and Republic.

Ram 2500 Engine Options

The Ram 2500 is offered with two powertrain choices, and the selection between them is primarily a question of how you use the truck:

• 6.4L HEMI V8 (Gas) — 410 HP, 429 lb-ft of torque, 6-speed automatic. The right choice for buyers who tow occasionally, prioritize lower purchase price, and prefer the simplicity of a naturally aspirated gasoline V8. Lower upfront cost than diesel but less low-RPM torque for sustained heavy towing.
• 6.7L Cummins Turbo Diesel (Available) — 370 HP (Standard Output) or 420 HP (High Output), up to 1,075 lb-ft of torque, paired with the Aisin 6-speed or Ram’s own 68RFE automatic. The diesel is the choice for buyers who tow consistently and heavily — the 1,000+ lb-ft of torque is what makes 20,000-lb trailer loads feel manageable on Ozark grades and I-44 highway runs.

Ram 2500 Trim Levels

The Ram 2500 is available across a range that covers working truck buyers through luxury full-size buyers:

• Tradesman — The work truck baseline. Vinyl seating, standard connectivity, and the full heavy-duty capability of the 2500 platform at the most accessible price point. Available in Regular Cab, Crew Cab, and Mega Cab.
• Big Horn — Adds convenience features, cloth seating upgrade, and the Ram brand’s signature storage and technology features at a moderate price step.
• Laramie — Leather seating, larger touchscreen, heated and ventilated front seats, and the interior quality that distinguishes Ram’s heavy-duty lineup from competitors at similar price points.
• Power Wagon — The off-road variant. WARN winch, electronic front sway bar disconnect, Bilstein shocks, 33-inch all-terrain tires, and 4WD hardware that gives the 2500 genuine trail capability alongside its heavy towing credentials.
• Longhorn — Premium leather, wood trim, 12-inch Uconnect display, and the premium finish detail that matches what buyers in the agricultural market expect when they’re spending $70,000+ on a working truck.
• Limited — The luxury apex of the Ram 2500 lineup, with the most premium materials and the most complete feature set available.

Frequently Asked Questions: Ram 2500 in Springfield

• Should I get the gas or diesel Ram 2500?

For occasional towing and lower upfront cost, the 6.4L HEMI V8 is a capable, simpler alternative.
• What is the towing capacity of the Ram 2500 diesel? A properly equipped Ram 2500 with the 6.7L Cummins High Output and the Max Tow Package can tow up to 20,000 lbs conventional. Specific ratings vary by cab style, bed length, and axle configuration — call (417) 815-4992 for the exact figure on the configuration you’re considering.

The Power Wagon is the off-road-focused Ram 2500 with a factory WARN 12,000-lb winch, electronic front sway bar disconnect for improved articulation, Bilstein performance shocks, and 33-inch all-terrain tires — the only factory-equipped heavy-duty pickup with a winch.
