2021 RAM 1500 Big Horn Crew Cab 4x4 57' Box: The Ultimate Central Illinois Workhorse
Imagine pulling out of your driveway in Shelbyville, IL, as the morning mist sits low over the fields, heading out for a full day of productivity with the confidence that only a modern legend can provide. This 2021 RAM 1500 Big Horn Crew Cab 4x4 is more than just a pickup; it is a versatile tool designed to bridge the gap between a demanding workday and a comfortable evening with the family. Whether you are navigating the historic streets of Paris, IL, or heading to a job site on the outskirts of town, this Bright White Clearcoat powerhouse stands ready to deliver the performance and presence you require.
Performance & Capability
Under the hood of this RAM 1500 lies the legendary HEMI 5.7L V-8 engine, a powerplant that utilizes variable valve control and cylinder deactivation to balance raw strength with modern efficiency. Generating a robust 395HP, this engine is paired with a sophisticated 8-speed automatic transmission featuring overdrive and driver selectable modes, ensuring you always have the right gear for the rolling terrain of central Illinois.
The capability of this truck is further enhanced by its Four Wheel Drive system, offering both part and full-time 4WD modes to tackle unpredictable Midwest winters or muddy paths near Arcola, IL. This RAM also features an ETorque MHEV (mild hybrid electric vehicle) system, which includes a 48V belt starter generator and a lithium-ion traction battery to optimize the Auto stop-start engine functionality. The mechanical foundation is built for durability, utilizing an iron engine block, engine oil cooler, and a heavy-duty gas-pressurized shock absorber setup. With a 3.21 Rear Axle Ratio and electronic transfer case shift, this truck provides the mechanical grip and smooth power delivery needed for both highway cruising and rural exploration.
Technology & Connectivity
Inside the cabin, the 2021 RAM 1500 Big Horn serves as a mobile command center. The focal point of the interior is the 8.4 inch primary display featuring a touchscreen that is intuitive and easy to navigate. With Apple CarPlay and Google Android Auto smart device integration, you can seamlessly mirror your smartphones interface to access your favorite apps, maps, and music.
Connectivity is a priority, evidenced by the 5 USB ports strategically placed to keep everyones devices charged during long drives. The Handsfree Uconnect w/Bluetooth system allows for integrated voice commands, so you can keep your hands on the leather steering wheel while making calls or adjusting the streaming audio. Whether you are listening to local news or your favorite playlist through the 6-speaker system, the steering wheel mounted audio controls and voice activated audio ensure that your focus remains on the road ahead.
Comfort & Interior
The interior of this Crew Cab is draped in Black premium cloth front seat upholstery, offering a refined yet durable environment for daily use. The 8-way directional power driver seat includes 4-way power lumbar support, allowing you to find the perfect driving position for long hauls. Passengers will appreciate the spaciousness of the front facing cloth rear seat with its 60-40 folding capability, which provides versatile storage options when you need to keep gear out of the elements.
Every detail has been considered for the drivers convenience, from the power adjustable pedals to the power folding and heated door mirrors. The cabin stays comfortable thanks to manual climate control with dedicated rear under seat ducts and console ducts for those in the back. Storage is abundant with driver and passenger door bins, 1st row underseat storage, and a covered floor console. The aesthetic is elevated by chrome and metal-look interior accents, a vinyl door trim insert, and deluxe sound insulation that keeps the cabin quiet even when the HEMI V8 is working hard.
Safety & Driver Assistance
Safety is paramount in a vehicle designed for both work and family life. This RAM 1500 is equipped with a comprehensive suite of protective features, including 6 airbags consisting of dual stage front airbags, seat-mounted side airbags, and curtain first and second-row overhead airbags. The ParkView back-up camera provides a clear view of what is behind you, making it easier to hitch a trailer or back into a tight parking spot in downtown Effingham, IL.
The braking system is equally advanced, featuring 4-wheel antilock disc brakes with brake assist and regenerative brakes that work in tandem with the hybrid system. For those traveling with children, the manual rear child safety door locks and outboard front lap and shoulder safety belts provide peace of mind. Additional security is provided by the Sentry Key immobilizer and a remote panic alarm, while the tire specific low air pressure warning and Tire Fill Alert ensure your tires are always at the optimal pressure for safety and efficiency.
Exterior & Design
Dressed in Bright White Clearcoat, this RAM 1500 Big Horn features a bold and professional exterior. The black grille with chrome surround is flanked by halogen reflector headlights and front fog lights, providing excellent visibility during late-night drives. The 18-inch cast-aluminum painted wheels are wrapped in all-season LRR tires, offering a smooth ride and confident grip.
Functional design elements abound, such as the active grille shutters that improve aerodynamics and the Class IV tow rating with a trailer hitch and trailer wiring harness ready for your next project. The chrome front and rear bumpers add a touch of classic truck style, while the rear bumper step and easy lower tailgate make accessing the standard style pickup box effortless. Deep tinted glass provides privacy and reduces glare, and the power rear windshield allows for extra ventilation on those beautiful Illinois afternoons.
