What’s New For 2020
Already turning heads, the 2020 Ram 1500 adds even more appearance options to the lineup here at our dealership serving Beacon NY. As of this blog post’s publishing, the latest additions are:

Speaking of the Rebel, the 2020 Ram 1500 Rebel upgrades its exterior graphics to give you an even more off-the-beaten-path look & feel. This model also features a new Safety Group that includes the following accident-prevention technologies:

- Automatic high-beam headlamps to help everybody’s visibility on the road
Another update for 2020 is the addition of a new engine option: the 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 that delivers 260 hp & 480 lb/ft of torque. The 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel provides fuel economy rated at up to an EPA-estimated 32 mpg highway & the ability to tow up to 12,560 lbs, which is part of why the 1500 won the prestigious Truck of Texas award.
