2019 Ram 1500 vs. Chevy Silverado 1500 vs. 2018 Ford F-150: How they compare

The 2018 Detroit Auto Show could nearly be renamed the Detroit Truck Show for all the enormous uncovers on the floor. We don't have all the 2019 Ram 1500 and the 2019 Chevy Silverado particulars, however we can analyze them as far as weight, motors, transmissions, and rough terrain variants. We can likewise look at what we think about those trucks to the current 2018 Ford F-150. Stay tuned for a more top to bottom correlation of insights as more data winds up noticeably accessible.

Weight reserve funds

Both Ram 1500 and Chevy Silverado have started eating less for the new model year, like the one the F-150 went ahead in 2015. The Silverado is the weight reduction pioneer, having shed 450 pounds contrasting quad-taxi V8 models. The Ram 1500 lost 225 pounds contrasted with the present truck. The two trucks accomplish their weight reduction to some extent because of the utilization of aluminum parts. On the Silverado, the hood, entryways, and rear end are aluminum, while on the Ram, only the hood and back end are aluminum on the body. Contrast that with the F-150, which utilizes aluminum for all outside body boards for an aggregate weight reduction of up to 732 pounds, which makes the aluminum-concentrated F-150 the weight reduction pioneer.

Motors and transmissions

There's just a touch of cover in powertrains on the Ram 1500 and Chevy Silverado. Every ha a V8 for the best motor. The Ram's is a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 making 395 strength and 410 pound-feet of torque. The Silverado will by and by utilize a 6.2-liter V8. Despite the fact that Chevy hasn't uncovered specs on the motor, we envision it will be near the present model's 420 drive and 460 pound-feet of torque.

While the Chevy makes more power and torque, the Ram's V8 gloats a discretionary 48-volt mellow crossover framework that can give up to 130 pound-feet of torque ideal off the line.

While the F-150 still offers a 5.0-liter V8, the genuine range-topping motor is a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6. That motor makes 375 drive and finish the three trucks with 470 pound-feet of torque.

The Ram and Chevy' powertrains separate with the lower-end gas motors. Smash offers a 3.6-liter V6 making 305 pull and 269 pound-feet of torque, and it comes standard with the 48-volt half breed framework, however in that application it just creates up to 90 pound-feet. Chevy has not reported a fuel V6 for the new Silverado yet, which means the low-end gas motor for it is a 5.3-liter V8. Yield hasn't been given, however the 5.3-liter motor in the present model produces 355 strength and 383 pound-feet of torque, and we don't anticipate that that will change much. Underneath the F-150's 3.5-liter rests the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6. That motor makes 325 pull and 400 pound-feet of torque.

Diesels are somewhat of a puzzle for these two trucks. Chevrolet declared it would offer a 3.0-liter inline-six diesel, and gave no subtle elements other than it will beat the opposition. Portage's Powerstroke 3.0-liter makes 250 pull and 440 pound-feet of torque, so anticipate that the Chevy motor will be in that ballpark. Slam says that the EcoDiesel 3.0-liter V6 will return, yet no subtle elements were given. The present model makes 240 pull and 420 pound-feet of torque, so the new form will presumably be close. Portage simply declared the F-150 will get that 3.0-liter V6 turbodiesel.

At long last, all Rams will utilize eight-speed automatics, with an alternate one for V6 than for V8. The Silverado will get a 10-speed programmed with the 6.2-liter V8 and the diesel. In spite of the fact that no transmission was declared for the 5.3-liter V8, the present model uses an eight-speed programmed, so we would expect the same for the better and brighter one. Like the Silverado, the F-150 utilizations a 10-speed programmed. Truth be told, the transmissions are almost the same, because of an improvement association amongst GM and Ford.

Rough terrain renditions

For the 2019 model year, Chevrolet has made an intense rough terrain variation to coordinate the Ram Rebel. It's known as the Trailboss. It goes a stage past the consistent Z71 rough terrain bundle, yet incorporates that bundle's highlights. It accompanies a locking back differential, slip plates, Rancho stuns, a two-inch lift, and go dirt road romping tires. Also, obviously, the Trailboss looks more forceful with a dark front sash.

The Ram 1500 Rebel proceeds for 2019. As opposed to the Chevy Trailboss, the Rebel just gets a one-inch suspension lift. Yet, similar to the Trailboss, it has a locking back differential, slip plates and go 4x4 romping tires. The Rebel additionally gains slope plunge power and redesigned stuns, yet from Bilstein rather than Rancho. The Rebel can accompany air suspension, as well. Furthermore, the Rebel will keep on getting a one of a kind dark grille and striking Rebel badging. Between the two, it's most likely up to your inclination of style and brand.

All things considered, neither of those truly stack up against the Ford F-150 Raptor, the lord of full-estimate 4x4 junkies. The Raptor is fueled by a high-yield rendition of the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, useful for 450 pull and 510 pound-feet of torque. Notwithstanding the knock in control, the Raptor gets burly tires and wheels, Fox stuns, wide bumpers and that's just the beginning.

Freight choices

Smash has had a passing grasp on the lockable in-bed stockpiling market with its RamBox, and that element proceeds on the new model, yet observes new rivalry from Chevrolet. The RamBox keeps on working the same as it generally has, fitting stockpiling holders into the bed sides with lockable tops on the highest points of the bed sides. On the Silverado, there are presently accessible in-bed load boxes. They sit over the wheel curves and appear to consume up comparable room as RamBox, yet they give off an impression of being removable and not to require an uncommon bed. The F-150 doesn't accompany any lockable stockpiling in the bed.

The Silverado is by all accounts the lord with regards to payload limit. The new truck bed is 6.75 inches more extensive than earlier and, on account of taller bumpers, is more profound, as well. In any case, dislike the Ram or F-150 fall behind. It's little contrasts between the three models, however we'll need to sit tight for full specs to truly look at.

Inside

Every one of the three trucks highlight extensive, all around designated insides. For some time, the F-150 was the reasonable class pioneer, however it was additionally the most up to date. Presently it appears like a tossup. For 2019, the Ram and Silverado give off an impression of being a development of what preceded. The plan is perfect and rough, with huge controls that ought to be anything but difficult to utilize while wearing work gloves. There are a lot of little pockets and load receptacles all through the lodges. The Ram specifically emerges with a really gigantic focus reassure.

The infotainment is a tossup between the three, yet by and by Ram takes the cake on estimate. Upper trim models get another 12-inch infotainment show that would give Tesla a keep running for its cash. In any case, the new Silverado and F-150 keep running on the most recent cycles of Chevy MyLink and Ford Sync. Every one of the three have various USB ports for both charging and network sprinkled all through.
