Ram Towing Technology
Chances are, if you tow, you know it's about a lot more than just attaching a trailer and driving carefully. While towing requires a different set of driving skills, Ram wanted to make towing as easy as possible for drivers. That's why they created a full suite of available advanced towing technologies to help drivers get everything they need where they need to go safe and secure. So whether you've been towing for many years or just starting out, Ram's advanced towing tech will help make your hauling journeys much easier. Continue reading below to learn how Ram helps drivers tow with these high-tech towing features.
Trailer reverse steering control
This system employs a Trailer Reverse knob on the center stack. This gives drivers the ability to alter the direction of the trailer while the system controls the truck's steering wheel. This makes it easier to back up even with large trailers.
Blindspot monitoring
Blindspot monitoring with rear cross-path warning gives drivers an extra set of eyes in their blind spots to the sides. While other trucks require drivers to manually set the system to account for the length of the trailer, Ram trucks blindspot monitoring system is able to detect a trailer and adjust itself to keep tabs on the blind spots created by the trailer.
360-degree surround-view camera
A surround-view camera and Trailer Camera Prep are available to take the guesswork out of linking up a trailer. This allows for up to two auxiliary cameras to be positioned on or within the trailer to give a full view of what's around your trailer.
Reverse Guidance with Split-Screen View
This system coordinates with the 360-degree surround-view camera to give you a full view of the trailer behind you. There are multiple split-screen views to see both driver and passenger sides of the trailer. This allows drivers to backup to link a trailer without a person outside guiding them.
Air Suspension
Air suspension has many great benefits from increased ground clearance, better fuel economy, and a smooth ride. One benefit that is sometimes overlooked is the help it gives drivers who tow. When linking up a trailer, the rear springs of Ram trucks equipped with air suspension can be lowered to be more accurate when lining up with a fifth-wheel, gooseneck, or conventional trailer.
