Though pickup trucks have become increasingly civilized and more common in cityscapes, they’re still indispensable equipment as work vehicles, especially on farms. Recognizing this, Ram created a truck package aimed specifically at the agricultural sector called the Harvest Edition. The package features a variety of equipment as standard, like mud flaps, side steps, a rear bumper step, skid plates, rubber floor mats, a spray-in bedliner, 4G WiFi, navigation, and access to weather via Sirius radio. Rams with four-wheel drive also get tow hooks, and 1500 models receive a one-inch suspension lift. Ram 2500 and 3500 retain their normal ride heights.
The Harvest Edition includes visual enhancements, most notably the addition of Case IH red and New Holland blue paint colors. But if you prefer John Deere, you won’t find its signature green – instead you’ll have to settle for white, black, or silver. The Harvest Edition features loads of shiny trim. The mesh grille is chrome, the mirrors and door handles are chrome, the bumpers are chrome. The wheels are chrome on 1500s, and simply polished on heavy duty models. The only visual changes that doesn’t involve shiny metal are the body-color fender flares.
The package is available on all four-door Ram trucks from 1500 to 3500. It’s also available with two- or four-wheel drive and every engine option from V6 to Cummins diesel. The 1500 model starts at $ 41,305, and the 2500 starts at $ 47,630. The package becomes available in the third quarter, so farmers and even wannabe farmers should be able to pick one up very soon.
