About This 2023 RAM 1500 Crew Cab Big Horn

This 2023 RAM 1500 Crew Cab Big Horn comes in at 102,731 miles, which for a half-ton truck of this caliber is well within its working life. RAM 1500s built on the fifth-generation platform — which debuted in 2019 and carries through this model year — are engineered for the long haul, and many owners report driving well past 200,000 miles with proper maintenance. The Big Horn trim sits in a sweet spot: it steps up from the base Tradesman with meaningful comfort and technology upgrades without crossing into luxury-truck pricing. Featuring a full crew cab body with a 5½-foot bed, this configuration is ideal for buyers who need rear seat room for passengers without sacrificing too much cargo length.
 

2023 RAM 1500 Performance and Engine

Under the hood, this truck is powered by the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 with Variable Valve Timing (VVT) and RAM's eTorque mild-hybrid system. The eTorque setup pairs a belt-integrated starter-generator with a 48-volt battery pack to deliver an additional 90 lb-ft of low-end torque, improving throttle response, reducing fuel consumption, and enabling engine stop-start that actually feels smooth compared to conventional systems. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, this powertrain is tuned for efficiency and daily driveability. The 2WD configuration is a practical choice for Southern California drivers who don't need all-weather traction but want a capable truck for towing lighter loads and handling everyday hauling duties without the added complexity of four-wheel-drive maintenance.
 

RAM 1500 Big Horn Features and Interior

Comfort and Convenience

The Big Horn trim level brings a noticeably elevated interior experience over the base model. Expect features including the Uconnect infotainment system with a touchscreen display, Bluetooth connectivity, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and a steering-wheel-mounted control cluster. The crew cab layout means genuine rear-seat legroom — enough for adult passengers on longer commutes or road trips, not just kids on short errands.
 

Technology and Safety

The 2023 RAM 1500 Big Horn also includes a suite of modern driver assistance features that buyers at this price point will appreciate. Forward collision warning, rear parking sensors, rearview camera, and available blind-spot monitoring are part of what makes this generation of RAM stand out in the used truck market. The instrument cluster on Big Horn models is clean and legible, and the overall cabin quality — soft-touch materials, noise insulation, and available heated seats — punches above its class.
 

RAM 1500 Reliability and Ownership

The fifth-generation RAM 1500 has earned a strong reputation for build quality and long-term durability, a significant leap forward from earlier generations. The 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 is one of Chrysler-Stellantis's most proven engines, found across a wide range of vehicles and backed by years of refinement. Common maintenance items to stay on top of include regular oil changes (the eTorque system does not add significant complexity here), transmission fluid service around the 60,000-mile mark, and routine inspection of the air suspension if equipped. Owners frequently praise the RAM 1500's ride quality — it uses a coil-link rear suspension rather than the traditional leaf-spring setup found in most half-ton competitors, which translates to a noticeably smoother, more car-like driving experience. For a Southern California buyer logging freeway miles, that difference is real.

The Big Horn trim adds meaningful upgrades over the base Tradesman, including the Uconnect touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, chrome exterior accents, alloy wheels, and upgraded interior materials. It also typically includes tow hooks, a rear camera, and available driver-assist technologies depending on how the vehicle was optioned from the factory.
 

What is eTorque on the RAM 1500?

eTorque is RAM's mild-hybrid system that pairs a belt-integrated starter-generator with a 48-volt lithium-ion battery. It adds up to 90 lb-ft of supplemental torque during acceleration, improves fuel efficiency, and enables a smoother engine stop-start function compared to traditional systems. It also assists during towing for improved response at low speeds.

For most buyers in the Los Angeles area, a 2WD RAM 1500 is a practical and cost-effective choice.
