When your workday starts before the sun rises over the marshes of Morgan City, LA, you need a vehicle that is as relentless as your schedule. The 2024 RAM 3500 Chassis Tradesman/SLT is engineered specifically for those who view their truck not just as transportation, but as a critical piece of industrial equipment. Whether you are hauling heavy supplies to a job site in Houma, LA or navigating the coastal plains to support the local maritime industry, this Regular Cab chassis provides the blank canvas and the raw power necessary to build a tool tailored to your specific trade. It is a truck designed for the person who values grit, durability, and the ability to get the job done right the first time.
At the heart of this powerhouse is the legendary Cummins 6.7L I-6 diesel direct injection engine, a powerplant synonymous with longevity and heavy-duty performance. This intercooled turbo diesel engine delivers 360HP and is paired with a smooth-shifting 8-speed Automatic transmission featuring Overdrive and Lock-up capabilities. To ensure consistent performance during long hauls through the flat, humid terrain of southern Louisiana, the system includes a Transmission oil cooler and a Transmission fluid temperature warning system.
This truck is built for the demanding environments found around Thibodaux, LA, featuring a Four Wheel Drive system with Auto locking hub control and a Manual transfer case shift for maximum reliability when traction is scarce. The mechanical foundation is rock-solid, utilizing an Iron engine block and a Rigid axle front suspension with a Multi-link design, while the rear relies on heavy-duty Leaf spring rear suspension. To assist with controlled descents and braking longevity, the Engine retarder system provides additional stopping confidence, and the Mechanical limited slip differential ensures power reaches the ground even in the slickest bayou mud.
While the 2024 RAM 3500 Chassis is a dedicated work tool, it keeps you connected to your business and your team with essential modern technology. The cabin features a 5 inch primary display with a Primary monitor touchscreen for easy interaction. Drivers stay informed via an Analog instrumentation display complemented by a 3.50 inch gauge cluster display size, providing vital vehicle data at a glance.
Communication is seamless thanks to Handsfree Uconnect w/Bluetooth handsfree wireless device connectivity, allowing you to take calls from the job site without taking your hands off the wheel. For those long drives between service areas, Bluetooth wireless audio streaming and Voice activated audio controls allow you to manage your media effortlessly. With 5 USB ports available, your devices will stay charged and ready for the next task, while the Exterior temperature display keeps you aware of the changing coastal conditions.
The interior of the 2024 RAM 3500 Chassis is designed for durability and ease of maintenance, featuring Vinyl front seat upholstery and Vinyl front seatback upholstery that can stand up to the dirt and grime of a hard day's work. The Regular Cab configuration offers a focused workspace with Bucket front seats for both the driver and passenger. The Manual driver seat controls allow for 4-way adjustment, including reclining and fore/aft movement, ensuring you can find a comfortable position for the drive back to Berwick, LA after a long shift.
Practicality is woven into every detail, from the Full vinyl floor covering that is easy to spray out to the Chrome and metal-look interior accents that provide a touch of professional polish. The cabin environment is managed by Manual climate control, and Keyless Go with push button start means you can keep your keys in your pocket while moving from one task to the next. Additional conveniences include 2 12V power outlets for auxiliary equipment and Retained accessory power, allowing you to finish a phone call or listen to the radio even after the engine is turned off.
Safety on the job site and the highway is a top priority for the 2024 RAM 3500 Chassis. The braking system is robust, featuring 4-wheel antilock (ABS) brakes and Front and rear ventilated disc brakes designed to dissipate heat effectively during heavy use. The vehicle is equipped with a comprehensive Low level warning system that monitors oil, coolant, fuel, washer fluid, brake fluid, and even diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), ensuring you are never caught off guard by maintenance needs.
Inside the cabin, the protection suite includes 2 airbags, consisting of a Driver front impact airbag and a Passenger front impact airbag, managed by an Airbag occupancy sensor. To ensure all occupants are secure, the truck features Front height adjustable seatbelts and Front seatbelt pretensioners. This combination of mechanical reliability and essential safety equipment provides the peace of mind required when navigating busy industrial corridors or rural coastal roads.
The exterior of this RAM 3500 is finished in a professional BRIGHT WHITE CLEA monotone paint, accented by a rugged Black grille and Black front bumper. Designed for maximum utility, it features 17 x 6-inch front and dual rear argent steel wheels with Wheel hub covers, providing the stability and load-bearing footprint of a Dual rear wheel configuration. The Active grille shutters help manage airflow for optimal engine cooling and efficiency.
Visibility is handled by Halogen reflector headlights with an Auto on/off headlight control and Delay-off functionality, which is particularly useful when finishing up a project after dark. The truck is also equipped with Cab clearance lights and a High mounted center stop light for increased visibility to other drivers. For those who need to haul extra equipment, the Trailer wiring harness and Trailer sway control are integrated to ensure your trailer tracks straight and true, even in crosswinds.
The 2024 RAM 3500 Chassis is packed with features designed to make your workday more efficient and your truck more capable.
