Ram 5500 in Texas: Built for Serious Work

What Is the Ram 5500 Chassis Cab?

The Ram 5500 is the heaviest Class 5 commercial chassis cab in the Ram lineup. A chassis cab gives you a bare frame behind the cab so you can add the exact body your business needs — flatbeds, service bodies, dump beds, and more.

Key Specs Texas Buyers Care About

Texas buyers focus on towing capacity, payload, and engine durability. The Ram 5500 delivers up to 35,220 pounds of max towing and a GVWR that supports the heaviest commercial loads, powered by the available 6.7-liter Cummins turbo diesel.

Where the Ram 5500 Fits in the Ram Lineup

The Ram 5500 sits at the top of Ram’s commercial truck family, above the Ram 3500 and 4500. It is purpose-built for buyers who need the highest GVWR and most flexible chassis options.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Ram 5500 for Sale in Texas

Is the Ram 5500 overkill for my business?

Not if you need higher GVWRs, heavier upfits, or loads beyond what a Ram 3500 or 4500 can handle. We will review your weight requirements to confirm the 5500 is the right fit.

What upfit/body style do I need for my job?

The best body depends on your industry. Landscapers often choose flatbeds, while electricians prefer enclosed service bodies. We will help you find the right match.

How do I know which GVWR and wheelbase to choose?

We start by understanding what body and equipment you plan to install, then recommend the GVWR, wheelbase, and cab-to-axle length that supports your build.
