Lucas Jeep Chrysler Dodge RAM
2027 RAM 2500 • LUCAS CDJR
Shop the 2027 Ram 2500 in South Jersey with a clear plan for power, passengers and equipment.
South Jersey buyers can shop the 2027 Ram 2500 at Lucas CDJR for a truck suited to substantial trailer work, useful bed space and a choice of gas or Cummins diesel power. The most productive first step is choosing the cab, engine and equipment that fit the way you actually use a truck. A contractor carrying tools every day and a driver pulling a camper on weekends may both want a heavy-duty pickup, but they need different configurations.
The passengers, permanently carried equipment and loaded trailer weight define the requirements. Then look at comfort and convenience. We help buyers from Cherry Hill and Burlington work through those decisions against a specific truck’s equipment and ratings. Browse Ram 2500 inventory, save the trucks that fit your basic requirements and bring the list to your visit.
The 6.4-liter HEMI V8 produces 405 horsepower and 429 lb-ft of torque. It pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission and gives buyers a gas-powered way into the lineup. Think about how frequently you tow, the load you carry between trailer trips and the fuel and service routine you prefer. Buying the diesel simply because it is the more powerful option can overlook what a gas configuration contributes to a cargo-focused job.
The available 6.7-liter High-Output Cummins turbo diesel makes 430 horsepower and 1,075 lb-ft of torque, paired with the TorqueFlite HD eight-speed automatic. Its low-speed pulling strength and available diesel exhaust braking deserve a demonstration if heavy trailer miles define your work. Engine choice also changes the truck’s weight and capacity, so comparing badges alone does not settle the decision. Our specifications guide explains the powertrains, while the towing guide handles the load calculations.
The lineup includes Tradesman, Big Horn, Black Express, Warlock, Laramie, Rebel, Power Wagon, Limited and Limited Longhorn. Tradesman puts the emphasis on work; Big Horn adds another equipment path before the more comfort-oriented Laramie. Black Express emphasizes a darker appearance, while Warlock, Rebel and Power Wagon give off-road shoppers distinct choices. Limited and Limited Longhorn address buyers who want a more richly finished cabin.
Choose a trim for the equipment you will use. A more expensive interior does not automatically make a truck a better match for your trailer, and an aggressive tire package does not remove the need to check ratings. Use our trim-by-trim guide to narrow the field, then compare equipment records. Equipment groups can change the experience considerably within one trim, particularly screens, seating, camera systems and exterior convenience features.
Available equipment includes a 14.5-inch Uconnect touchscreen and a 10.25-inch front passenger display. The passenger screen is a separate feature, so a large center display does not prove the truck has both. Available camera views, a digital rearview mirror and trailer information displays serve different tasks. During a demonstration, switch among the views you would actually use when positioning the truck or lining up a trailer.
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility make phone integration part of the cabin’s appeal. Pair your own phone before deciding how the interface fits your routine. Check the placement of charging points and the reach to physical controls from the seat position you prefer. On a Route 38 shopping stop, a few minutes setting up navigation and adjusting the mirrors can tell you more than a long equipment list.
Regular Cab, Crew Cab and Mega Cab configurations address different passenger and cargo priorities. Regular Cab is the straightforward choice when the rear seat is unnecessary. Crew Cab adds a separate rear passenger area. Mega Cab places more emphasis on rear-seat flexibility, including reclining and forward-folding rear seats. Cab availability depends on trim, so decide how much passenger room you need before committing to a particular appearance package.
Available rear in-floor storage on Crew Cab models and an available fold-flat load floor can help keep smaller items organized. Those spaces are useful for gear you want inside the cabin rather than loose in the bed. Bring a tool case, work bag or child seat that matters to your household and test its fit. Storage that works well for one person’s equipment may be awkward for another’s, even when the overall cabin feels spacious.
A base gas Laramie Crew Cab 4×2 with the 6-foot-4-inch box has a published towing capacity of 15,220 pounds and payload of 3,510 pounds. Other configurations have different limits. A properly equipped Cummins Tradesman Crew Cab 4×2 with the 6-foot-4-inch box has a maximum towing capacity of 20,000 pounds. That is a separate diesel configuration. The gas lineup’s 4,580-pound payload maximum requires the available Payload Upgrade Package. Passengers, tools, accessories and trailer tongue or pin weight all affect the working load.
Before choosing a truck for a camper or equipment trailer, bring the trailer’s loaded weights and hitch information. Our towing and payload page separates engine maxima from truck-specific limits and shows how to assemble a load worksheet. A trip toward Rancocas Creek with recreational gear can still use considerable payload before a trailer is connected. The tire and loading label on the truck is essential to that discussion.
Power Wagon is the dedicated off-road name in the range, with hardware such as locking differentials and a disconnecting front sway bar. Rebel and Warlock deserve separate consideration rather than being treated as appearance versions of the same truck. Match tires, suspension and clearance needs to real use. Buyers from Mt Ephraim who spend most of their miles on pavement should still drive the exact off-road configuration before deciding on its road manners.
Adaptive cruise control and forward collision warning with active braking are part of Ram’s driver-assistance story. Available features include LaneSense lane departure warning with lane keep assist and a surround-view camera. These systems support attentive driving; they do not expand towing or payload ratings. Ask for the controls and limitations to be demonstrated, including the settings you can change and the indications you will see in the cluster.
Prioritize the HEMI if your load worksheet and driving pattern favor gas ownership. Give the Cummins a close look when heavy trailer use makes its torque and exhaust-braking behavior especially valuable. Choose the cab around the passengers you actually carry and the bed around the material you need to transport. Then add the trim and convenience equipment that make that configuration comfortable to live with.
Robbinsville shoppers can also plan ownership before purchase. Basic limited warranty coverage is 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first; coverage terms and exclusions apply. The Ram 2500’s heavy-duty classification is exempt from light-duty EPA MPG testing. Fuel use depends on load and driving conditions. Our maintenance guide connects engine choice with service planning.
Lucas Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram is at 1624 NJ-38 in Lumberton Township. Bring your truck requirements to one visit: trailer information, preferred cab, must-have options and any trade details. We can work from those specifics instead of asking you to choose from trim names alone. Use our trade-in tool and financing application to organize the next steps, or contact our team at (609) 354-5619 to arrange a test drive.
Bring your license, a list of required equipment and the weights or dimensions of the trailer and cargo you intend to carry. If passenger fit is important, bring the people or child seat involved. That preparation lets the visit focus on a truck that can serve your actual needs.
Yes. Save the inventory listing and ask our team to walk through the equipment record with you. Cab, bed, engine, drive system and option groups identify the configuration more accurately than a trim name. Bring any unanswered questions to the appointment.
Passenger and equipment space should lead the choice. Some cab and trim combinations are limited, so choosing a finish level first can narrow your choices for the wrong reason. Once the cab and bed are settled, compare the equipment you want inside them.
Price alone does not determine a tow rating. Engine, cab, bed, drivetrain, installed equipment and the applicable ratings all matter. Compare the actual trucks against your trailer and cargo requirements before treating a higher trim as a capability upgrade.
Decide on a comfortable purchase budget and bring trade information, down-payment plans and questions about the proposed term. Ask for the complete transaction breakdown. The price of a specific truck and the financing terms should both be clear before you decide.
Use the trim guide for the equipment hierarchy and the specifications page for measurements and powertrain details. The research hub gathers every guide in one place. Our team can then confirm how those details apply to the exact inventory truck you are considering.
The 2026 Ram 2500 guide remains available as a separate model-year resource. Use the guide for the year shown on the vehicle listing and equipment record. Do not assume an option or rating carries over simply because the trucks look similar.
