Ram 1500 Is Canada’s Truck King
Each year, Canada holds a contest to figure out their toughest half-ton truck. This time, a 2012 Ram 1500 pickup becomes the Canadian Truck King.
Ram sold 5,282 pickups in Canada this past October, 53% more than in Oct. 2010. Ram remains the 2nd best-selling truck throughout Canada, where many North American models are produced, including Richmond, Va Ram 1500 models.
Five Canadian Truck King Challenge judges checked out pickups in tests like towing 8,000 pounds, carrying 1,800 pounds, and off-roading. Ram was officially crowned “Best Half-Ton Pickup Truck.”
“The testing performed by the Truck King Challenge is a great third party evaluation of the highly competitive half-ton truck segment, and we are thrilled that our Ram 1500 took top honors,” said Reid Bigland, Chrysler Canada’s president and CEO. “The Ram 1500 is the most awarded Ram truck ever and has the longest lasting line of pickups in Canada. It’s no coincidence that more Canadian pickup buyers are switching to Ram 1500 than to any other truck.”
