While the engines have improved a full lineup of Chrysler cars in Racine, many would be surprised to learn that it also appears in the 2013 Ram 1500 in Racine. The Ram 1500 with the now famous 3.6-liter Pentastar under the hood gets a best-in-class 25 miles per gallon on the highway and an impressive 18 MPG in the city. It’s also a big reason for the Ram 1500 being named the 2013 North American Truck of the Year.
