Dodge Ram 1500 vs. Ford F-150 SuperCrew Review

Handling
With its tighter turning radius, the Dodge Ram 1500 is definitely nimbler than the Ford F-150 SuperCrew, something to consider if you do a lot of city driving; on the flip side, remember that a vehicle with a tight turning circle may feel a bit twitchy on the highway.

Drivetrain
The Ford F-150 SuperCrew's engine is significantly more sizeable than the Dodge's. Bear in mind that more massive engines may use more gas than smaller ones. Torque equals pickup, and the Ford F-150 SuperCrew will have picked up and gone by the time the Dodge Ram 1500 finally gets moving. The Dodge Ram 1500 could learn a lesson or two from the Ford when it comes to torque.

Utility
The Ford F-150 SuperCrew is likely a better choice than the Dodge in terms of transporting cargo, especially if you frequently need to carry a lot of loot or sizeable dogs. The Dodge Ram 1500 and the Ford can accommodate the same number of passengers. The Ford F-150 SuperCrew outpulls the Dodge Ram 1500 by a large margin.

Convenience
The Dodge Ram 1500's fuel tank will need to be replenished slightly more often than the unit in the F-150 SuperCrew.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Ford F-150 SuperCrew offers a bit more head room than the Dodge, there honestly isn't much of a difference. The Ford F-150 SuperCrew provides more head- and leg-room to your passengers than the Ram 1500 does.

Dimensions
The Ford F-150 SuperCrew is substantially more bulky than the Dodge Ram 1500. The Ram 1500's tank is about the same size as the F-150 SuperCrew's, though the F-150 SuperCrew's is somewhat bigger. The Dodge and the Ford F-150 SuperCrew compete for the same parking spaces. The Dodge Ram 1500's shorter wheelbase may produce a less-settled highway ride but a nimbler feel in daily traffic than the Ford F-150 SuperCrew.
