2020 Ram 1500 vs 2020 Ford F-150: Performance

Nothing tells you more about what a truck can do than what is under the hood. Luckily, both the Ram 1500 and F-150 have a lineup of engines that allow you to test the limits. However, when looking at their standard configurations, there are some noticeable differences.

The Ford F-150 is standardly powered by a 3.3L V6 engine. This responsive and robust powertrain can supply you with up to 290 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque. Although this is ultimately powerful, the Ram 1500’s standard engine has it beat.

Under the hood of the Ram 1500, you’ll find the standard 3.6L V6. This engine sports advanced engineering that makes generating up to 305 horsepower easier than ever. Plus, with a paired torque of up to 269 lb-ft, you know nothing will stand in your way.

Ram vs Ford: Cabin Technology

Since you’re probably going to be in your truck quite often, you deserve something that is fully equipped to make any journey exciting, connective, and entertaining. Ram and Ford both provide advanced technology in their cabins, giving you the chance to be behind the wheel even more.

The 2020 Ram 1500 does this with its available Uconnect® multimedia system. This state-of-the-art equipment boasts a whopping 12-inch touchscreen on the dashboard that opens to a world of connectivity. It lets you fully integrate your phone, comes with advanced navigation, and lets you control the available 19-speaker Harmon Kardon® Premium Audio System. Plus, with split-screen capability, you can multitask easily.

When you look at the technology in the Ford F-150, it’s a bit less impressive. Though it also sports an advanced multimedia system, the available touchscreen maxes out at only eight inches. Plus, it doesn’t offer split-screen capability, which can limit multitasking while on the road. Additionally, the Ford’s upgraded sound system offers fewer speakers (10 total), which makes for a less immersive listening experience.

2020 Ram 1500 vs Ford F-150: Which One Is for You?

In this head-to-head comparison, the team at Family CDJR proved that both of these pickup trucks have great power under the hood and top-notch technology in the cabin.
