Perkins Motors - 2026 Ram 3500 Laramie — Smart Work and Weekend Capability for Castle Rock, CO
If you want a heavy-duty truck that works just as hard during the week as it does on the weekend, the 2026 Ram 3500 Laramie deserves a close look. Around Castle Rock, CO, towing confidence, highway stability, and in-cab tech matter as much as raw numbers. Laramie hits the sweet spot: upscale leather-trimmed comfort that keeps you fresh on longer I-25 drives, plus the serious strength of the available High-Output 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 and TorqueFlite® HD eight-speed automatic for up to 1,075 lb-ft of torque and as much as 36,610 pounds of available diesel towing capacity when properly equipped. And if your day-to-day mix leans toward payload and local hauling, the 6.4L HEMI® V8 with the TorqueFlite® eight-speed automatic brings refined power, fully electronic operation, and responsive on-the-fly shift mapping for stop-and-go traffic on Founders Parkway and quick merges near the Castle Rock Promenade.
What stands out about Laramie is how naturally it blends strength with next-level visibility and control. The Largest-in-Class available 14.5-inch infotainment touchscreen powered by Uconnect® 5 NAV gives you an expansive view of maps and tow-related pages. Add the available 12-inch Digital Cluster Display for turn-by-turn directions, Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring, and a tow-friendly gauge summary without hunting through menus. When the job is tight or the trailhead lot is crowded, available Trailer Reverse Steering Control and the 360° Trailer Surround View Camera help you guide trailers with less back-and-forth. For highway stretches between job sites, Class-Exclusive standard Adaptive Cruise Control can maintain a driver-selected gap, and Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking adds peace of mind if traffic slows unexpectedly, even with a trailer attached.
Inside, Laramie gives crews and families a welcome upgrade. Choose bison brown or black leather-trimmed front bucket seats and enjoy available dual wireless charging pads to keep smartphones ready. The available 900-watt Harman Kardon® Premium Audio System with 17 speakers pairs beautifully with the cabin’s noise-reducing design, so calls and podcasts stay clear while you navigate to material yards or construction sites. If you regularly travel with a co-driver, the available 10.25-inch Front Passenger Interactive Display lets a passenger handle navigation, camera views, and media—freeing you to focus on the road and the load. Crew Cab models can add available Rear In-Floor Storage for tie-downs and straps, and the Class-Exclusive available RamBox® Cargo Management System secures tools where you can reach them without hopping into the bed.
Towing setups in Douglas County can change quickly—equipment trailers on weekdays, a boat or fifth-wheel for the weekend. Laramie makes those transitions simple. Consider the available Fifth-Wheel/Gooseneck Prep Package with integrated anchoring hardware for clean, factory-grade fitment. Pair it with Class-Exclusive available Power Convex Trailer Tow Mirrors and the Digital Rearview Mirror with side camera integration to see around wide or enclosed trailers more confidently. And for uneven driveways and dirt access roads to worksites near Castle Pines, Class-Exclusive available Auto-Level Rear Air Suspension helps keep the truck and trailer composed, smoothing the ride and stabilizing tongue weight when cargo shifts.
