The Ram’s High Output Cummins makes a best-in-class 1,075 lb-ft, ahead of the Sierra’s 470-horsepower Duramax at 975 lb-ft. Both offer a gas V8 standard.
The Ram edges the Sierra 3500 on towing (up to 36,610 versus 36,000 pounds) and payload (up to 7,680 versus 7,290). The Sierra counters with the upscale Denali and the off-road AT4; the Ram answers with its own comfortable Limited cabin.
The Ram 3500 starts lower, around $47,195 versus about $50,195 for the Sierra 3500, which makes it the value pick even before its capability edge.
