The 2017 Ram 5500 Chassis Cab is Ram most powerful medium duty work truck, and indeed is built to carry or haul thousands of pounds in equipment or materials. It's built specifically for the toughest jobs around, and fits in as well at the worksite as it does at the construction site or the ranch. Let's take a look at some of the 5500's particulars:

  • Regular cab configuration features the maximum available cab-to-axle length for hauling the biggest loads, and can accommodate both 15-foot and 16-foot upfits.
  • GVWR options range from 15,000 pounds to 19,000 pounds
  • Ram's commercial grade 6.4-liter HEMI® V* engine is standard. Also available is the class-exclusive 6.7-liter Cummins® turbo diesel I6 engine with smart diesel exhaust brake system
  • Available left- or right-side power take-off capability
  • 50,000-PSI rear frame strength
  • Best-in-class available 74-gallon combined dual fuel tank capacity

Additionally, Ram stands behinds its trucks. The gas- and diesel-powered engines have been tested and validated to deliver 200,000 customer-equivalent miles or more over the course of the vehicle's lifetime. And the 5500 is backed by Ram's unparalleled warranty: 5-year/100,000 mile diesel powertrain limited warranty or a 5-year/60,000 mile gas powertrain limited warranty, and has rear frame steel strength of 50,000 PSI.
