Looking for the perfect combination of
capable
strength and outstanding efficiencies of
operation? The 2014 factory built Ram 2500 CNG
(Compressed Natural Gas) Heavy Duty pickup
delivers. This modified 5.7-liter HEMI

V8 powerplant
seamlessly burns either

20 to 30 percent less than gas) — this Ram is the
green solution. With the
comprehensive Electronic
Stability Control

(ESC) system
ensuring outstanding
control, maneuverability and handling, the 2014 Ram

an extra boost in comfort, cargo-carrying capability
and road manners.
