When your livelihood depends on the strength of your equipment, you need a truck that understands the demands of the Gulf Coast. Whether you are hauling heavy maritime equipment near the docks in Morgan City, LA or navigating the busy industrial corridors of Houma, LA, the 2024 RAM 3500 Chassis Tradesman/SLT is engineered to be the backbone of your operation. This is not just a vehicle; it is a precision tool designed for those who build, service, and support our local industries. From the low-lying coastal plains to the vibrant community centers, this Regular Cab chassis provides the blank canvas you need to upfit a service body, flatbed, or dump body that fits your specific trade perfectly.
At the heart of this powerhouse is the legendary Cummins 6.7L I-6 diesel direct injection engine, a powerplant synonymous with longevity and relentless grit. Delivering 360HP and featuring a VVT intercooled turbo, this engine is built with a rugged Iron engine block and Iron cylinder head to withstand the high-pressure environments of heavy-duty labor. The Four Wheel Drive system utilizes a Manual transfer case shift and Auto locking hub control, ensuring you have the mechanical grip needed when navigating muddy jobsites or slippery boat ramps.
The drivetrain is managed by a sophisticated 8-speed Automatic transmission featuring Transmission electronic control and a Selectable mode transmission setting to optimize shifts based on your current load. To ensure durability during long hauls through the heat of southern Louisiana, the system includes a Transmission oil cooler and a Transmission fluid temp warning indicator. The chassis itself is a masterclass in stability, utilizing a Rigid axle front suspension with Multi-link geometry and a Rigid axle rear suspension with Leaf springs. This Standard ride suspension is further enhanced by Heavy-duty gas-pressurized shock absorbers and a Heavy-duty rear anti-roll bar, providing a composed platform even when the chassis is fully loaded.
In the modern workspace, staying connected is a necessity, not a luxury. This RAM 3500 Chassis features Handsfree Uconnect w/Bluetooth handsfree wireless device connectivity, allowing you to coordinate with your crew or clients while keeping your hands on the wheel. The cabin is equipped with 2 total number of 1st row displays, including a 5 inch primary display with Primary monitor touchscreen capabilities for intuitive control of your media.
The Analog instrumentation display is complemented by a Gauge cluster display size of 3.50 inches, providing clear readouts of vital vehicle data. For those long days on the road between Berwick, LA and the surrounding parishes, the Voice activated audio controls and Bluetooth wireless audio streaming make it easy to manage your environment. With 5 USB ports and External memory control, your devices will stay charged and integrated throughout the workday.
Inside the cabin, the focus is on durability and functional comfort. The Vinyl front seat upholstery and Full vinyl floor covering are specifically chosen for their ability to withstand the dirt, mud, and wear that come with industrial work. The Bucket front seats offer 4-way directional controls with Manual reclining and fore/aft control, ensuring a supportive position for the driver and passenger.
The interior environment is managed by a Manual climate control system featuring an N95+Bio cabin air filter, which is essential for maintaining air quality on dusty worksites. Convenience is prioritized with Keyless Go with push button start, allowing you to keep your keys in your pocket while jumping in and out of the cab. Small but impactful details like Chrome and metal-look interior accents, Fade interior courtesy lights, and 2 12V power outlets create a professional and organized workspace. For those colder mornings, the Supplemental cabin heater ensures the interior reaches a comfortable temperature quickly.
Safety on the job starts with a solid foundation, and this RAM 3500 is equipped with a 4-wheel antilock (ABS) brake system and Front and rear ventilated disc brakes to provide consistent stopping power under heavy loads. The vehicle is designed to keep you informed of its health at all times with Low level warnings for oil, coolant, fuel, washer fluid, brake fluid, and even diesel exhaust fluid (DEF).
The safety suite includes a 2 airbag system, featuring a Driver front impact airbag and a Passenger front impact airbag with an Airbag occupancy sensor. To assist with vehicle stability during transit, especially when navigating the winding roads along the bayou, the truck includes Electronic stability control and All-speed ABS and driveline traction control. These systems work in tandem to help maintain traction and directional stability regardless of the road conditions.
The exterior of this RAM 3500 Chassis is finished in a professional BRIGHT WHITE CLEA with a Monotone paint scheme. It features a rugged Black grille and matching Black front bumper, providing a look that is both classic and resilient. The 17 x 6-inch front and dual rear argent steel wheels are built for maximum payload capacity, while the Dual rear wheels provide the lateral stability required for top-heavy upfits.
Visibility is a priority, evidenced by the Halogen headlights with Auto on/off headlight control and Delay-off functionality. The Cab clearance lights and Daytime running lights ensure the vehicle is visible to others in all lighting conditions. For those who need to tow, the truck comes prepared with a Trailer wiring harness and Trailer sway control, while the Manual extendable trailer mirrors with Convex spotter mirrors provide an expansive view of your surroundings.
This RAM 3500 is a purpose-built machine designed to deliver results day after day.
