F-150 vs. Ram 1500 comparison offer plenty of power to get work done. However, when it comes to comfort and convenience features, the Ram takes the lead. The Ram offers more comfortable seats and better rear seat legroom than any other truck in the class, even in the SuperCrew model that can seat six. It also has more luxurious options, such as a premium leather interior and telescopic trailer tow mirrors. The Ram also has more advanced driver-assist technology than any other pickup, including an automatic emergency braking system with pedestrian detection.

Both the F-150 and the Ram have been named Top Safety Picks by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Ford has more engine choices than the Ram, but the latter has a superior towing and payload capacity.

The Ram’s rear coil spring suspension delivers a smoother ride than the F-150, which uses leaf springs. This can be especially noticeable when going over rough road surfaces or a bumpy gravel driveway. It can make a big difference in how smoothly the truck glides over obstacles and turns, too.

The Ram’s base V6 has a competitive fuel economy rating of 20 mpg city and 26 mpg highway. It’s not the best in this category, but it still beats out the Ford’s most powerful straight-six engine’s 15 mpg city and 21 mpg highway ratings.
