What is the Dodge Ram 1500’s curb weight?

I’ve been considering a Dodge Ram, but I need to know the curb weight so I can decide on whether or not it gets decent gas mileage and what sort of terrain I can take it on. What’s the curb weight of a Ram 1500?

You’re much more involved in the process than the average truck buyer, we’ll give you that! Curb weight, which is different from gross vehicle weight, is a good number to know if you’re concerned about terrain or
fuel efficiency
.
So you’d think the answer would be straightforward, but alas, it’s not! Curb weight is the weight of a vehicle plus all of its standard equipment and a full tank of gas, but without passengers or cargo (which is the gross vehicle weight). So the Ram’s curb weight actually depends entirely on the trim level and amount of optional equipment added.
But to help give you an idea, the 2022 Dodge Ram 1500’s curb weight range across all trim levels and optional extras is 4,775 to 6,439 pounds.
Adding optional extras doesn’t just add weight—it can add cost to your
car insurance
. So whether you’ve opted for the featherweight base model or the heavyweight with all the added extras, lighten your financial load by calling on
