This includes an attractive exterior styling, plush and quiet cabins and meeting the emission standards without expensive after-treatment technology. Improved suspension tuning and new C-pillar hydra mounts were likewise key features for the 2010 Ram that now reduces shake and improved rides. Other key improvements include an integrated trailer brake control and an Electronic Range Select transmission which should be key in fuel consumption and smoother driving.

The all-new 2010 Ram Heavy Duty is priced starting at $28,165 for regular cab models, $31,415 for crew cab models and $36,865 for Mega Cab models. All prices include $950 for destination. They are scheduled to arrive in dealerships in the late 2009 calendar year.

Who ever thought that the Ford F-150 would reign supreme? Thanks to a bunch of improvements made on this reliable pickup, the F-series is bagging awards that include:

1. 2009 Motor Trend Truck of the Year(TM)
2. Texas Auto Writers Association Truck of Texas

The Ford F-150 is also a finalist for 2009 North American Truck of the year. With these current and future citations in tow, you can just imagine the enhancements made to the Ford F-150 to solicit these credits.

2009 F-150 improvements include a new high-strength, lighter-weight chassis that delivers even more horsepower, unsurpassed fuel economy and class-leading towing and payload capacity.
