The Crew Cab body style gives you four full doors and genuine rear-seat space, making it one of the most versatile configurations in the RAM lineup.

2018 RAM 1500 Performance and EngineUnder the hood, this truck runs a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 Flex Fuel engine — a powertrain that RAM paired with one of the smoothest eight-speed automatic transmissions in the segment. Don't let the V6 badge fool you. The Pentastar 3.6L is a well-proven, capable engine that produces around 305 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque, giving this truck a towing capacity in the range of 7,600 lbs when properly equipped. The eight-speed automatic keeps the engine in its power band efficiently, which also translates to better fuel economy than older six-speed competitors — typically mid-to-upper teens in the city and low-to-mid 20s on the highway.

The Flex Fuel capability means this truck can run on E85 ethanol blend or standard gasoline, giving you fuel flexibility depending on what's available and priced well in your area. This is a 2WD configuration, making it a smart choice for buyers who prioritize fuel efficiency and everyday commuting without sacrificing truck-level capability. For Pacific Northwest drivers who spend most of their time on paved roads in and around the Portland metro area, 2WD is a practical and cost-effective choice.

RAM 1500 Express Features and InteriorThe Express trim is RAM's working-person's sweet spot — it strips away the luxury frills and focuses on what a truck actually needs to get the job done. That means you get a no-nonsense interior that's still comfortable for daily driving, with a spacious Crew Cab cabin that seats up to six passengers depending on configuration. The 5.5-foot box in the bed gives you meaningful cargo space for hauling tools, materials, or weekend gear without making the overall truck difficult to park and maneuver.

What to Expect from the Express TrimThe Express trim typically includes power windows and locks, a tilt-and-telescoping steering column, a Uconnect infotainment system with Bluetooth connectivity, and a rearview camera — features that make this a genuinely comfortable everyday truck. The interior leans utilitarian with cloth seating, but RAM's cabin ergonomics are well-regarded in the segment, and the driving position is commanding and natural. The Black exterior color keeps the look clean and professional — equally at home on a job site or parked outside a meeting.

RAM 1500 Reliability and OwnershipThe 2018 RAM 1500 has a strong reputation among truck owners, and for good reason. The Pentastar 3.6L V6 is one of the most reliable engines in the FCA/Stellantis lineup and has appeared in millions of vehicles with a well-documented track record. The eight-speed ZF-sourced automatic transmission is similarly respected for durability when maintained properly. Consumer reports and owner forums cons
