Inside Ram’s Torture Testing for Their New Diesel Trucks

Season 8 Episode 857 Published 3 weeks, 5 days ago
Description

What testing does a Ram truck go through before it ever reaches a dealership? We’re joined by Doug Killian, Chief Vehicle Synthesis Manager at Ram, the guy responsible for making sure every system on their trucks works together and survives real-world use. We talk about what goes into testing the new Ram diesel truck lineup, from engine and transmission performance to towing, payload, off-road durability, and emissions. Doug breaks down how these trucks are validated for harsh environments and long-term reliability before they ever reach customers.

We also asked Doug, if he were ordering a Ram truck today, what engine, cab configuration, and trim level he would choose.
