2013 RAM 2500 CNG Pickup Review

I just can't get used to writing the Ram name without having "Dodge" in front of it. It just doesn't look right does it? It matters not of course. It's still the same truck, made by ummm...Dodge. It just doesn't use the Dodge name anymore.

Anyways, the 2013 is being called the Truck of the Year in just about every place that has a chance to drive one. This one happens to run on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) so it has a bit of an interesting write up here that sets it a bit a part from other reviews. Probably a favorite of at least one of the greats at Levein Team real estate too.

The Ram 2500 Heavy Duty CNG pickup was initially designed for fleet and commercial customers and offers cost and emissions benefits. The Ram 2500 Heavy Duty can run on either compressed natural gas (CNG) or gasoline. It starts up using gasoline, switches immediately to CNG, and, if CNG is exhausted, switches back again to gasoline — all without any need for driver input. Natural gas is usually domestically sourced in the United States and Canada, reducing dependence on foreign oil. CNG demonstrates a reduction of 70 to 90 percent of smog-producing pollutants and significantly reduces greenhouse gas emission.
