2019 Ram 3500: The divine dually

Just because the heavy-duty Ram 3500 truck is designed to tow and haul with the best of them doesn't mean it can't be pretty as well.

I love two-seater, RWD convertibles and own a 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata for pavement fun and a lifted 2001 Miata for pre-running. I race air-cooled Volkswagens in desert races like the Mint 400 and the Baja 1000. I have won the Rebelle Rally, seven-day navigational challenge, twice and I am the only driver to compete in an EV, the Rivian R1T.

The good news is that there are plenty of ADAS features to make driving this nearly 22-foot long truck easier.

The bad news is that you'll pay extra for things like blind-spot monitoring and a 360-degree camera.

Dual rear wheels and a beefy rear axle help bear any extra payload, but can transmit even the smallest of bumps into the cab.

An available 6.7-liter Cummins turbo diesel engine puts out 400 horsepower and -- get this -- 1,000 pound-feet of torque.

Also standard on top trims is the giant 12-inch portrait oriented touchscreen running Ram's excellent Uconnect infotainment system.
