Controlled from the driver's side, Cargo Manager is repositioned by simply squeezing the control levers. BedĬargo Manager(R), an optional companion product for Roll-N-Lock, is a movable bed divider that can be positioned every 3 inch along the length of the truck bed to manage and contain lightweight cargo. More pictures from the 2011 State Fair of Texas are below.Cargo Manager Rolling Truck Bed Divider, Works Only with Roll-N-Lock Covers, for 2019-20 w/RamBox 5.6 Ft. Although sales of the RamBox option was initially sluggish, we’d expect this larger-model lineup will help boost take-rate numbers. The larger RamBox option will continue to include the tailgate extender and cargo rail slider system with adjustable tie-downs. Both RamBox lengths - there will also be a 6-foot 4-inch unit - will cost $1,295, 32 percent lower compared with last year. The new box size offers 18 percent more room, with almost 9 cubic feet of cargo space.

(We think that will make it especially attractive to the National Park and Forest Service, not to mention military personnel). That means the RamBox will be available to more than 80 percent of all Ram pickups, including the Power Wagon.

The weatherproof, lockable storage unit will now be available for regular cab and Quad Cab half-ton models as well as three-quarter-ton and 1-ton (single-rear-wheel only) regular cab, Quad Cab and Mega Cab models. The final piece of big news from Ram is that a longer 6-foot 4-inch RamBox is now available on all Ram 1500, 25 models where applicable. (Neither price includes destination charges.) The Hemi is standard on all Express models. Pricing for the Quad Cab four-door will start at $28,050, and crew-cab models will begin at $30,210. The Express is Ram’s value-priced sport model that offers monochromatic paint schemes, plenty of standard equipment, 20-inch rims, fog lights and more starting under $25,000. Two new configurations of the popular Ram Express were also shown: Quad Cab and crew cab. Ram hopes both Tradesman pickups (short bed and long bed) will be a perfect fit for hard-working small-business owners, construction job site contractors and fleet operators. It will only be offered with the 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 and six-speed automatic transmission. The 1500 Tradesman HD will offer a class-leading (measured against the Ford XL and Chevy Silverado LT models) 3,100 pounds of payload and a class-leading maximum towing capacity of 11,500 pounds (GCWR 17,500). Yes, those are leaf springs and a heavy-duty frame underneath the new 1500 Tradesman HD, but Ram still technically calls it a 1500 to be more closely aligned to its short-bed regular cab Ram 1500 sibling. But there is a twist: The all-new Ram 1500 Tradesmen HD is actually a dressed-up (or is it dressed-down?) regular cab 2500 underneath. And when the 20 Tradesman is measured against its Ford and GM competition, the numbers pan out pretty well against its regular cab half-ton competitors.īut Ram is going a step further by expanding the Tradesman’s reach to include a competition-beating regular cab long-bed model.

That typically means crank windows, manual door locks and rubber floormats. The idea of the Tradesman is pretty simple: provide the most value and work capability as possible. Ram is banking on the fact that the new Tradesman will be an industry hit, offering class-leading towing and hauling capacity with a strong value story to tell. With more than 100 local and national media outlets in attendance, the truck-maker took the wraps off two more new trucks and increased the reach of its RamBox storage system. Ram Truck sprung a few surprises at the State Fair of Texas. Posted by Mark Williams | September 28, 2011
