2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 vs. 2021 Ram 1500

Are you shopping for a full-size pickup in Brockton, Massachusetts? The 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and the 2021 Ram 1500 will probably be among the models at the top of your list. When you compare these two vehicles side-by-side, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 boasts several clear advantages — making it the best choice to meet all your truck needs.

Cargo Box and Tailgate Features

The Silverado’s cargo box excels with features and capabilities you won’t get from Ram. For example, the Silverado’s high-strength steel Durabed comes with 12 tie-downs and the handy CornerStep bumper, two standard features that Ram doesn’t offer. The Silverado also gives you three box size options to the Ram’s two — and all three sizes deliver class-leading cargo volume.*

The Silverado’s tailgate options are better, too, including an available power up/down version that Ram doesn’t have. The Silverado’s available Multi-Flex tailgate has a wider variety of functions than Ram’s Multifunction tailgate, including a work surface and adjustable load-stop settings.

    Towing Capabilities

    For superior towing capabilities, turn to the Silverado. At its peak, the Silverado can pull up to 13,300 pounds when equipped with Chevrolet’s 6.2-liter V8 engine. That’s 550 pounds more than what Ram can manage. The Silverado’s 4.3-liter V6 (7,900 pounds max) and 2.7-liter turbo (9,600 pounds max) are also more capable when it comes to trailering. Both of these engines can easily out-tow the Ram’s comparable 3.6-liter V6.
