The Ram 1500 is Dodge’s flagship full-size pickup truck that has been a popular choice among many who are looking for a truck that can do it all. The Dodge Ram is built to take on just about any type of activities from the base level daily driver to the fully loaded, farm-ready pickup truck with all of the bells and whistles. In between these two different extremes are a few different trim levels that include various different features and benefits to help give you the truck of your dreams. Today, we are going to look at one of these trim levels known as the Big Horn.
