If you need a truck that can handle the jobsite Monday through Friday but still feels right as a daily driver, the 2020 Ram 1500 Big Horn is built to live in that sweet spot. You’ve got real-world engine choices—from the 3.6L Pentastar V6 with eTorque for smooth, efficient daily power to the available 5.7L HEMI V8 when you want that “no problem” muscle—and the capability to back it up with up to 12,750 lbs of towing when properly equipped. That means you can hook up a trailer, haul materials, pull equipment, or handle weekend toys without constantly second-guessing whether the truck is up to the task. And with eTorque (where equipped), the truck feels more responsive at low speeds—exactly where you spend your time in traffic, parking lots, and tight jobsite turns.
What makes the Big Horn stand out is that it doesn’t make you choose between “work truck” and “nice truck.” This generation of Ram 1500 earned a reputation for ride refinement that you feel on a test drive—less beat-up at the end of the day, more comfortable on long commutes, and still tough enough to earn its keep. Safety credibility is also a major differentiator: the Ram 1500 has IIHS Top Safety Pick+ eligibility when properly equipped, giving you a third-party trust point you can actually use in ads and on listings. Inside, available Uconnect with Apple CarPlay / Android Auto keeps it modern and practical—so your “work rig” doesn’t feel like an outdated base model. Add in strong owner sentiment (KBB shows most owners recommend it), and you’ve got a truck that sells with both capability and confidence.
