The suspension on the Ram 1500 helps out its capability.

Consumers curious about the capabilities of Ram trucks are getting the opportunity to experience them first hand at various auto shows throughout the country. Most recently, the Columbus International Auto Show allowed people to experience the full performance and capabilities of vehicles like the Ram trucks in Racine here at Palmen Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Racine.

The “Off-road Experience” as it is known, is a very popular exhibit with consumers and one that has been successful for the Ram brand. It makes sense, since getting people behind the wheel of a Ram gives a better idea of the true capabilities of Ram trucks.

Luckily, you don’t have to travel to an auto show to drive a Ram truck, as we offer that service right here at Palmen Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Racine. It’s called a test drive – and we have people taking advantage of them every day. If you want to hear about some of the capabilities of Ram trucks right now, then read on.
