In the battle of robust pickup trucks, two stand out among the others on the road.

Which one will be better for your Aiken and Graniteville, South Carolina, adventures? Miracle Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is here to help you decide.
In our 2022 Ram 1500 vs. Ford F-150 comparison, you’ll see how these two hard-hitting trucks stack up against each other. Will it soon be the Ram model you hit the roads in, or will the F-150 be in your driveway? Let’s find out.
To ensure every truck driver gets the performance they crave, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 give you a wide variety of engines to choose from.
At the standard level, the F-150 is outfitted with the reliable 3.3L V6 engine, which pumps out an impressive 265 lb-ft of torque and over 250 horsepower. However, if it’s more strength you need at the standard level, the Ram 1500 may be your best bet. It also revs up over 250 horsepower, but it steals the scene with 269 lb-ft of torque, giving you more oomph where it counts.
The theme continues when looking at these models’ most powerful engine options. Although the Ford F-150 can hold its own, the Ram comes out of the gate with impressive stats that are sure to give you an edge on the road. Let’s take a look:
