Latest iteration of special Texas featured Ram 1500 revealed at Dallas Auto Show

Ram Trucks scored first at the Dallas Auto Show this week as they unveiled the 2019 Ram 1500 Lone Star edition — the all-new version of the original “Texas Truck”.  Aimed right at the heart of America’s truck country, the Ram 1500 Lone Star is the brand’s top-selling truck in Texas and offers buyers a no-compromise balance of strength, capability, technology and comfort.

“The hard-working appeal of the Ram Lone Star has made it a favorite among Texas truck buyers,” said Mike Manley, Head of Ram Brand. “Trucks are an important part of Texas life, and Ram trucks are proven to last. Ram’s long-lasting reliability has helped the Ram 1500 cement the highest owner loyalty of any half-ton pickup.”

Ram Lone Star

In 2002, Ram Truck was the first manufacturer to recognize the strength of the pickup truck market in Texas and to offer an exclusive edition for the state. The Ram Lone Star edition was the first truck designed by Texans and built specifically for Texans.

According to Ram, the Ram Lone Star edition has been by far the brand’s best-selling model in Texas, accounting for more than 50 percent of the half-ton mix there. Since the Lone Star’s debut, Ram has sold more than 250,000 of the Texas-only models.

The All-new 2019 Ram 1500

Ram says, the all-new 2019 Ram 1500 becomes the benchmark for durability, technology, efficiency and convenience with features never before offered in a pickup.

Overall weight for the Ram 1500 has been reduced by 225 pounds. As the truck’s backbone, the frame uses advanced materials and engineering to eliminate 100 pounds while increasing stiffness and durability for 12,750 pounds of towing capability and 2,300 pounds of payload.

An all-new eTorque (mild hybrid) system delivers improved fuel efficiency in both V-6 and V-8 configurations.

The new Uconnect 4C with a massive 12-inch touchscreen leads the pickup world with technology featuring split-screen capability, 360-degree camera views and exclusive content from SiriusXM with 360L.

Active safety and security systems join the technology onslaught with adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, Blind-spot Monitoring and ready alert braking.
