The days when you had to work with only one row of seats are long gone. With the 2022 Ram 1500, you could find yourself with a seating capacity of up to six passengers. Plus, your passengers will have tons of room to stretch out throughout the truck with these dimensions in the Crew Cab:
With 45.2 inches of legroom in the back, your rear passengers will have no complaints. Plus, they’ll enjoy the available reclining rear seat, which has eight different positions.
When it comes to technology, you’ll be able to enjoy the available Uconnect® 5 Nav system with a 12-inch touchscreen display. This large screen will make it easy to see directions, play your music, and more. It also includes:
Although six speakers are standard, you can also opt for the available 9-speaker amplified system with a subwoofer or even the available 19-speaker Harman Kardon® Premium Sound system. This will make your music sound better than ever before.
