Dodge Ram 2500 vs. Toyota Tundra Review

Handling
The Toyota Tundra and the Ram Pickup 2500 have about similar tires. With its tighter turning radius, the Toyota is doubtless sprier than the Dodge Ram Pickup 2500, something to consider if you do a lot of city driving; on the other hand, note that a vehicle with a tight turning circle may feel a bit twitchy on the highway.

Torque equals pickup, and the Dodge Ram Pickup 2500 will have picked up and gone by the time the Toyota Tundra finally gets moving.
