Heavy-duty muscle with room for the whole crew
Drive a 3500
The Ram 3500 is a one-ton, heavy-duty pickup that pairs serious power with a cab built for people. Under the hood, you'll find either a 6.7L High-Output Cummins Turbo Diesel I6 or a 6.4L HEMI V8, each matched to an eight-speed automatic. If you're weighing your Ram rental options, this is the one to choose when your plans call for maximum muscle and space.
Turo is a car rental marketplace, so your Ram 3500 truck rental is the exact truck you see in the listing. You book it from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans. Compare cab style, bed length, and engine before you book, and the truck you get is the truck you chose.

Diesel torque that makes light work of big days
Power is the Ram 3500's calling card. The High-Output Cummins delivers 430 hp and 1,075 lb-ft through a TorqueFlite HD eight-speed automatic — best-in-class available base diesel torque, per Ram. That deep pull lets you merge with ease, climb long mountain grades without strain, and keep a loaded bed moving.
A cabin with real stretch-out room
Crew Cab and Mega Cab versions of the Ram 3500 seat up to six, so your whole crew rides together in one truck. The Mega Cab gives rear passengers 43.1 inches of legroom, and the Crew Cab offers 40.2 inches. That's real space for tall friends, car seats, and the backpacks that always end up on the floor.
Choose a Laramie trim and you'll settle into leather-trimmed seats with suede inserts — a welcome upgrade on a long drive. Seating depends on configuration, and the Regular Cab seats three. Check the listing for the cab style before you book, so everyone on your trip has a seat.
Composed on long stretches
The Ram 3500 is made for long days behind the wheel. Its class-exclusive available auto-level rear air suspension helps keep the truck level as you add weight to the bed. That means a steadier stance whether the bed is empty or full.
Fuel stops come less often, too. The largest-in-class available 50-gallon tank (on Crew Cab models with the 8-ft bed) stretches the miles between fill-ups on road trips and long commutes. Heavy-duty four-wheel disc antilock brakes round out the package, giving you confident stopping power in highway traffic and on long downhill grades.
Stand out with a 3500
The Ram 3500 shines on moving day, gear-heavy trips with your crew, and job-site runs with room to spare. If you're shopping for a heavy-duty truck, a few days with one beats a quick test drive — browse pickup truck rentals on Turo to start.
Top 3500 features
A 14.5-inch touchscreen front and center
Three features set the Ram 3500 apart: a 14.5-inch touchscreen, a bed with room for big cargo, and a choice of gas or diesel power.
The Ram 3500 offers an available 14.5-inch touchscreen, the largest in its class. It's a big, easy-to-read display that puts infotainment and vehicle settings within easy reach of the driver's seat. Big truck, big screen — the scale just fits.
The 14.5-inch screen isn't on every truck, so check the listing photos and description to see which display your Ram 3500 has. If tech matters on your trip, book the exact truck that has it. You'll know what's waiting on the dash before you ever climb in.
Bed space for furniture, gear, and materials
The Ram 3500 bed comes in two lengths, and both give you serious cargo room. The 6'4" box measures 76.3 inches at the floor, and the 8' box stretches to 98.3 inches. That's space for a couch and dresser on moving day, camping gear for a group trip, or lumber for a weekend project.
Bed length varies by truck, so check the listing before you book. Choose the 8' box when you're moving long items, and the 6'4" box when you want a shorter truck that's easier to park. Either way, you've got an open bed that keeps bulky cargo out of the cabin and leaves the seats for your passengers.
Gas or diesel, 4x2 or 4x4
The Ram 3500 comes in diesel and gas versions, so the engine depends on the truck you book. Choose the High-Output Cummins diesel for maximum low-end pull, or the 6.4L HEMI V8 for gas power. The HEMI makes 405 hp and 429 lb-ft through a TorqueFlite 8 eight-speed automatic.
You'll also find 4x2 and 4x4 versions of the Ram 3500. Each listing shows the engine and drivetrain, so you can pick the exact combination you want. If you have your heart set on diesel, confirm the engine in the listing details before you book.

Top tips and things to know before renting a 3500
Get to know your 3500
A little prep goes a long way with a truck this size. Here's what to know about the Ram 3500's size, how it drives, and what it costs.
The Ram 3500 is a one-ton, heavy-duty pickup — not a two-ton truck — with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 10,001–14,000 lbs. Its curb weight ranges from 6,072 lbs to more than 8,600 lbs, depending on configuration. That's a lot of truck, so plan ahead for parking and garage clearance at your destination.
Cab style, bed length, and engine all vary from one Ram 3500 to the next. Check the listing for each before you book, so the truck matches your trip.
3500 driving tips
A truck this big calls for a few adjustments behind the wheel. Before you set out, keep these tips in mind:
Leave extra stopping distance, since a heavy-duty truck needs more room to slow down.
Take wide turns, especially in parking lots and on tight neighborhood streets.
Confirm the fuel type in the listing, since diesel models use ultra-low sulfur diesel and the HEMI uses 87-octane regular.
Use the large mirrors to check your blind spots before changing lanes.
Plan parking ahead, especially in parking garages and crowded downtown lots.
How much does it cost to rent a 3500?
The cost to rent a Ram 3500 depends on location, trip dates, model year and trim, and the local vehicle owner's pricing. Longer trips often qualify for discounts, so explore long-term car rental if you need a truck for weeks or months. See live listings for current pricing.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
