RAM 2500 gas vs. Cummins diesel
For a McKinney work truck, start with what the trailer weighs loaded and how often you pull it. Then compare purchase price, maintenance and the carrying allowance of the actual trucks.
| 2026 specification | 6.4L HEMI V8 | Available high-output 6.7L Cummins diesel |
|---|---|---|
| Horsepower | 405 hp | 430 hp |
| Torque | 429 lb-ft | 1,075 lb-ft |
| Maximum towing | 17,750 lb | 20,000 lb |
| Purchase comparison | Price the required cab, bed and towing equipment. | Price the same essential equipment plus diesel-specific ownership costs. |
Manufacturer maximums for properly equipped 2026 configurations. Towing and payload maximums are separate figures; they are not all achieved by one truck. Added equipment, occupants and cargo affect usable capacity.
Shopping 2026 and 2027?
Keep each model year’s ratings separate
| Published maximum | 2026 | 2027 |
|---|---|---|
| Gas payload | Check the truck’s load label and payload equipment | Up to 4,580 lb with Payload Upgrade Package |
| Diesel payload | 3,600 lb | 3,600 lb |
| Diesel towing | 20,000 lb | 20,000 lb |
For a toolbox-heavy build, compare payload packages and actual load labels on both model years. For a diesel, compare its individual load label and installed equipment. A model-year announcement does not confirm Bonham stock.
Factory references checked October 28, 2026. These are separate configuration maximums. The trim and image examples below primarily describe 2026 vehicles; verify 2027 equipment independently.

2026 RAM 2500: compare nine trim and edition choices
Choose the work configuration first, then pay for the cabin, appearance or off-road equipment you value. These are buying starting points, not a promise that every truck includes every feature.
What a Bonham inventory record shows
One 2026 Tradesman example, stock B190850, lists a Cummins diesel, Tradesman Level 1 Equipment Group, a 12-inch Uconnect navigation display and fifth-wheel/gooseneck preparation. It illustrates why the trim badge alone does not tell you the equipment. Compare the actual sticker and load label before choosing your truck.
Inventory-record example checked October 28, 2026; not an availability or payload guarantee. Check current availability through the matching inventory page or the Bonham team.
Images combine Bonham inventory examples and factory photography, including a preproduction diesel Power Wagon. The Big Horn photo shows a 2027 truck. Actual colors, options and availability vary. Black Express and Warlock are listed separately as editions. Confirm every selected vehicle’s model year and window sticker.
| Configuration | Factory equipment examples | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Tradesman Level 1 | Cloth bench; 400-watt inverter; rear antispin differential; park assist | A work-trim build can include useful comfort and jobsite equipment. |
| Big Horn/Lone Star Level 1 Plus | Remote start; bedliner; bed step; dual-zone climate control; 12-inch navigation display | Price the convenience package against the next trim before upgrading. |
| Rebel vs. Power Wagon | Rebel: Bilstein shocks and available diesel. Power Wagon: sway-bar disconnect and locking differentials. | Match the off-road hardware to access roads and trail use, then check load ratings. |
| Laramie vs. premium cabins | Laramie: leather trim. Longhorn: Southwestern stitching. Limited: wood/aluminum accents. | Compare seat fit and installed technology with the same work requirements. |
A separate model-year comparison
2027 RAM 2500: five documented trim comparisons
These 2027 photographs and equipment comparisons are separate from the 2026 cards. They cover five documented examples, not the complete lineup. RAM also lists Big Horn, Black Express, Warlock and Power Wagon; verify each selected build’s standard equipment, options and availability.
For 2027, RAM adds the available high-output Cummins diesel to Power Wagon. Do not transfer that powertrain claim to a 2026 Power Wagon. Reference photographs show factory examples, not confirmed Bonham stock.
2027 design, gallery and FAQ sources checked November 1, 2026. This focused comparison does not imply that every range-level feature is standard on a pictured trim or confirm local availability.
The load decides
Will a RAM 2500 handle your trailer?
A tow-rating headline is only the beginning. Passengers, tools, hitch hardware and the trailer’s tongue or pin weight all use the truck’s payload allowance.
| Load calculation | Weight |
|---|---|
| Example truck’s load label | 3,000 lb |
| Occupants | −600 lb |
| Tools and bed cargo | −250 lb |
| Hitch hardware | −150 lb |
| Remaining for trailer tongue or pin load | 2,000 lb |
A fifth-wheel example
A trailer imposing 2,400 pounds of loaded pin weight would exceed this example’s remaining payload by 400 pounds—even if its total trailer weight were below the advertised towing maximum. Compare a suitable RAM 3500 when the selected 2500 cannot cover the complete load.
Use loaded scale weights where available. Check gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), axle ratings (GAWR), gross combined weight rating (GCWR), tires, hitch and the applicable towing chart together. Leveling the truck does not increase these ratings.

After the handoff
Plan service around your truck’s work
Tell the Bonham service team about towing, idling, dusty-road use and any upfits when you request an appointment. Use the manual and maintenance schedule for the VIN. For a concern, share when it happens, warning messages and the truck’s mileage.
Ask about diagnostic availability, authorization steps and updates. A diagnostic appointment does not establish a same-day repair promise. Warranty and recall questions need a VIN-specific review.
Answers before your visit
RAM 2500 FAQs for McKinney shoppers
Is Bonham Chrysler located in McKinney, Texas?
Bonham Chrysler is in Bonham, Texas, at 2122 N Center St, not in McKinney. McKinney shoppers can compare RAM 2500 trucks remotely, arrange a Bonham test drive, or discuss free vehicle delivery within 300 miles. Confirm the truck and appointment before traveling.
How much can a RAM 2500 tow?
The 2026 RAM 2500 has a published maximum diesel towing capacity of 20,000 pounds and maximum gas towing capacity of 17,750 pounds when properly equipped. Your truck’s rating depends on configuration. Check its payload, axle, tire and hitch limits against the trailer’s loaded weight.
Should I buy a gas or diesel RAM 2500?
Start with your loaded trailer, annual mileage and ownership budget. Compare the gas truck’s purchase price and payload with the diesel truck’s towing capability and diesel-specific maintenance. Choose using the actual VINs and written prices; engine torque alone does not determine which truck fits your work.
How should I compare 2026 and 2027 RAM 2500 payload?
RAM lists up to 4,580 pounds of gas payload for a properly equipped 2027 RAM 2500 with the Payload Upgrade Package. Compare that equipment with the actual 2026 truck you are considering. The selected truck’s load label, occupants, accessories and hitch load determine your usable allowance.
Can a RAM 2500 tow my fifth-wheel or livestock trailer?
It depends on the actual truck and loaded trailer. Include passengers, tools, hitch hardware and trailer pin or tongue weight in the payload calculation. Check axle, tire, hitch and combined-weight limits too. If the selected 2500 cannot carry the complete load, compare an appropriately configured 3500.
What is the difference between RAM 2500 Rebel and Power Wagon?
Rebel and Power Wagon prioritize different off-road equipment. Rebel includes Bilstein shocks and offers Cummins diesel power. Power Wagon emphasizes features such as a front sway-bar disconnect and locking differentials. Engine availability changes by model year; compare the window stickers and load ratings of the exact trucks.
Can you deliver a RAM 2500 to McKinney?
Yes. Bonham offers vehicle delivery at no charge within 300 miles, including McKinney. Confirm your destination, vehicle readiness, documents, funding and expected handoff window with the team. Agree separately on trade pickup or transport; the purchase-delivery offer does not automatically establish those arrangements.
Can I trade in my vehicle without driving to Bonham first?
You can start the trade process remotely with the vehicle’s VIN, mileage, condition and photos. Use Bonham’s online trade tool, then discuss appraisal and any pickup arrangements with the team. An initial estimate is subject to appraisal; confirm final figures before completing the purchase.
What should my RAM 2500 quote include?
Request the selected VIN, selling price, qualifying incentives, documentary fee, applicable taxes, title and registration charges, and any optional products you choose. Compare trade figures and financing assumptions clearly. When buying from McKinney, have the team explain your registration paperwork and delivery arrangements before signing.
Can Bonham help with RAM service after I buy from McKinney?
Yes. Bonham provides service planning at its Texas dealership. Share the VIN, mileage, symptoms and towing use when requesting an appointment. Ask about diagnostic availability and approval steps; diagnosis and repair completion have different timelines. Warranty coverage and recall eligibility require a vehicle-specific review.
Research and buying guidance
Facts you can use. A team you can reach.
Model facts were checked against RAM’s factory capability, design and fleet-equipment publications. Bonham inventory examples come from the dealership’s vehicle records. Checked October 28, 2026.
The payload budget is a hypothetical illustration. The shopping recommendations are guidance for comparing your actual truck, trailer and intended use. Ask the Bonham team to review your VINs and equipment records with you.
Your next step
Get a RAM 2500 comparison that answers your questions
Tell us the VIN or trim, what you tow or carry, and whether you prefer a Bonham test drive or delivery to McKinney.
Use the inquiry form below to request a written equipment comparison or itemized quote. Keep financial account numbers and sensitive documents out of the message.
Match the truck to both the trailer and the daily drive
If your McKinney truck combines local use with hauling, send the trailer’s loaded weight, tongue or pin load, hitch equipment, passengers and tools before the visit. Ask Bonham to identify actual VINs with suitable ratings, rather than starting from a trim name.
Compare cab, bed, axle, rear-wheel arrangement and payload label together. Measure storage and parking access before choosing a larger truck; cabin upgrades do not automatically raise working capacity.
