When it comes to the exterior and breaking down the 2023 Ram 2500 vs 2023 Ford F-250 in Salina, it’s really all about the cab and bed combinations. The automakers use different naming conventions for these aspects, but they do take a similar approach in that they both offer a traditional regular cab, an extended cab and a crew cab. If you’re considering the middle options, then it’s important to note that Ford opts for a two-door configuration whereas the 2023 Ram 2500 has four doors, which are all full-sized doors. All regular cabs have two doors, and all crew cabs have four full-size doors. Both automakers also offer a standard and long bed of similar sizes, and availability depends on the cab choice.

The regular cab in both cases has a bench seat that accommodates up to three. Both vehicles afford about 40 inches of headroom. The 2023 Ram 2500 provides 41 inches of front legroom, which is ample for most drivers, but if you do need more, the 2023 Ford F-250 in Salina provides almost 44 inches. The extended cabs can seat either five or six depending on whether you up for a bench or bucket seats. You’ll find that the spaciousness of the front row is the same in all three cabs. While the extra legroom Ford provides the driver is a plus, it’s in the second row where were this design choice may be a problem. The Ford extended cab is a bit tight for adults in the second row at about 33 inches of rear legroom. The Ram model impresses at 40 inches, and the largest cabs are similar at about 43 inches.

You have the choice of either rear- or four-wheel drive with your HD pickup. With the 2023 Ram 2500 available at Marshall Motor Company, rear-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is optional. There are some exceptions, such as the off-road-oriented Rebel and Power Wagon. With the 2023 Ford F-250 in Salina, you have this choice with the base trim level, but beyond the base model, four-wheel drive is standard, which is a change that Ford has made for this model year. It’s an interesting one. Not everyone needs four-wheel drive and the reduced fuel performance that comes with that. As for powertrain, both automakers give you the choice of a gas V8 or a turbo-diesel engine.

As mentioned, Ford has greatly improved its tech. It now offers a 12-inch center touch screen, which has been available with the Ram. We also like that Ford has included an 8-inch touch screen with the work truck whereas Ram requires you to select it as an option prior to the Laramie trim level. Overall, however, the tech is still superior with the Ram. It offers more advanced driver-assistance and trailering technologies. That tech also tends to be available or included earlier in the lineup as well.
