Used RAM 3500 Commercial Trucks
in Memphis, TN.

The RAM 3500 is the heavy-duty pickup of choice for contractors, fleet operators, and heavy haulers throughout the Mid-South. The 6.7L Cummins diesel makes it one of the strongest tow vehicles in its class — capable of handling gooseneck and fifth-wheel trailers that other trucks can't manage. For Memphis contractors who move heavy equipment, tow fully loaded trailers, or carry significant payloads on the job, the 3500 is the standard.

FAQs

Common questions about the RAM 3500 in Memphis.

What is the towing capacity of a RAM 3500?
A RAM 3500 with the 6.7L Cummins diesel can tow up to 26,040 lb conventional and 37,100 lb with a fifth-wheel or gooseneck hitch. Exact capacity depends on configuration (cab, bed, axle ratio, SRW vs. DRW). Always check the door jamb towing sticker on the specific vehicle.
Should I buy a diesel or gas RAM 3500 in Memphis?
For heavy towing and hauling — the primary reason most buyers choose a RAM 3500 — diesel is the right choice. The 6.7L Cummins produces significantly more torque than the 6.4L Hemi gas engine and will outlast it under heavy load. Gas is cheaper to buy and cheaper to maintain. If you're towing 15,000+ lb regularly, diesel pays for itself.
Do I need a CDL to drive a RAM 3500?
No. The RAM 3500 has a GVWR under 14,000 lb — well below the 26,001 lb CDL threshold in Tennessee. However, if you're towing a combined vehicle + trailer weight that exceeds certain thresholds, a CDL Class A may be required depending on the trailer's GVWR. Consult the Tennessee Department of Safety for your specific situation.
What mileage is acceptable for a used RAM 3500 Cummins diesel?
The 6.7L Cummins is known to run to 400,000–500,000 miles with proper maintenance. On the used market, 150,000–250,000 miles is common and generally acceptable. Have our ASE mechanics check the injectors, EGR system, and DPF before buying any high-mileage Cummins.
