(1)Manufacturer estimates a 4% increase in fuel economy over previous generation HEMI V8.
(2)Based on Automotive News full-size pickup.
(3)Not a standard feature.
(4)Crew 1500 only.
(5)Always sit properly with the seat belt fastened. Children 12 and under should always be in a back seat correctly using an infant or child restraint system, or the seat belt properly positioned, dependent on the child’s age and weight.
(6)No system, no matter how sophisticated, can repeal the laws of physics or overcome careless driving actions. Performance is limited by available traction, which snow, ice and other conditions can affect. When the ESP warning lamp in the instrument cluster fl ashes, the driver needs to use less throttle and adapt speed and driving behaviour to prevailing road conditions. Always drive carefully, consistent with conditions. Please always wear your seat belt.
(7)Must use Bluetooth™ compatible mobile phone.
