Tremendous Capability and Performance
With one of the trims named the fastest, most capable SUV on the American market, the Dodge Durango is a beast.
There are three engines to choose from:
- The first, most powerful choice is the 4L HEMI V8 on the SRT 392, capable of 475 hp. This mighty engine can go from 0 – 60 mph in only 4.7 seconds, with a top speed of 160 mph. If the speed isn’t enough, the engine also has the best-in-class towing capacity of 8,700 lb. This is the best engine for those who need to tow extra heavy loads, such as your travel trailer or a sailboat.
- The second choice is a commanding 7L HEMI V8 on the R/T and Citadel, capable of 360 hp and 390 lb.-ft. of torque. It includes fuel-efficient technology, such as Variable Valve Timing and an eight-speed transmission. The RWD version can tow up to 7,200 lb. and the AWD version can tow up to 7,200 lb., making this engine a suitable choice for those who need to tow their motorboat to the lake, or a pop-up camper to a Kentucky campground.
- The final option is a 6L Pentastar V6 on the SXT, SXT Plus, GT, and Citadel, which boasts 295 hp and 260 lb.-ft. of torque. It gets impressive highway gas mileage of 26 mpg and has available best-in-class V6 towing of up to 6,200 lb. – enough to tow an ATV, dirt bike, motorcycle, or jet ski.
The Durango has near-perfect (52/48) weight distribution, helping it to accelerate/decelerate quickly and handle cornering well. It also has trailer sway control, where the Durango applies brake pressure to alternating wheels and adjusts the engine throttle. In addition, it offers all-wheel drive, which provides improved traction on slippery surfaces and when cornering, to help you navigate any road conditions that come your way.
As you can see, the Durango is an exciting SUV that has impressive performance.
Stylish, Comfortable Interior
When you step into the Durango, the first thing you’ll notice is the attention to detail. The designers prioritized using top-notch materials, making passengers and the driver, and offering an array of available technology.
The interior of the Durango is completely performance inspired. Behind the leather-wrapped steering wheel with metal details, you can add paddle shifters, so you don’t have to move your hand to the gear lever, making changing gears safer and quicker. The driver information center is complete with red and white details, making the Durango look even more sporty.
If you are a tech-lover, you can opt to get the available wireless charging pad, a 10.1 touchscreen, and a rear entertainment system. An 8.4-inch touchscreen display comes standard, which is equipped with Uconnect 5, giving you access to everything from remote start to roadside assistance to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. For those who love to listen to music: you can blast your tunes through the available 19-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system.
With room for seven passengers, 85.1 ft.3, 50+ possible seating configurations, a 60/40 split-folding third-row bench, and a fold-and-tumble second row, the 2022 Dodge Durango has more than enough room for whomever and whatever you need to bring along.
Head-Turning, Eye-Catching Exterior
The Dodge Durango continues to deviate from what’s expected with its sporty exterior. It features LED low/high beam headlamps, LED racetrack taillamps, and LED front turn signals – making your presence known on the road. The automatic high beam headlamps keep track of lighting conditions and road traffic to ensure maximum visibility.

Ram 1500 Classic
When Ram redesigned its 1500 in 2019, it kept the previous generation in the lineup, renaming it the Ram 1500 Classic. The Classic model is comfortable, safe, and has impressive horsepower – all for a budget-friendly price tag.
Powerful Performance
The 1500 Classic comes with a choice between two engines. The first is a 5.7L Hemi V8 engine, which gets 395 hp, 410 lb.-ft. of torque, and a maximum payload of 1,810 lbs. You can easily tow your boat to a nearby Kentucky lake, with the 10,620 lb. maximum towing capacity.

The Ram 1500 Classic makes it easy for you to tow whatever you need, with electronic stability control, trailer sway control, integrated trailer tow wiring, and an available Class IV hitch receiver. The drag reducing active grill shutters adapt to speed, load, and engine needs to offer ideal engine cooling, while also helping with drag. The frame is strategically made from down-gauged steel where heavy steel isn’t required, helping the Ram to have the best efficiency and weight management. If you want a smooth ride, the five-link coil spring rear suspension helps to deliver a smooth ride, without you having to sacrifice the towing capacity you need. The tonneau cover helps to move air over the truck, helping fight against drag.
Classic Exterior with Modern Upgrades
The exterior of the Ram 1500 Classic is functional and stylish. Access to the truck bed is made easy, with available wheel-to-wheel side steps and locking/unlocking with the push of a button. Your bed will be protected from whatever cargo you need to carry thanks to the available under-rail bedliner and tonneau cover. And you’ll be able to find what you need in the bed with available LED lights.
Comfortable Interior
The Ram 1500 Classic comes with a Uconnect 4C infotainment system, with an 8.4 inch touchscreen and an available 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay. USB ports and a 115-volt auxiliary power outlet will be sure to keep your devices powered. You can also store all your belongings, with the Ram Bin storage in the floor and under the seats, easy access upper and lower locking glove compartments, and a full-length floor console.
Plethora of Safety Features

It has electronic stability control, hill start assists, trailer sway control, a ParkSense rear park assist system, and a tire pressure monitoring system. The Sirius XM Guardian system, if activated, will give you theft alarm notifications and functions as a hub for the cameras.
The Ram comes with a wireless key fob, which functions as a keyless push-to-start, remote vehicle start, AllSecure Central Locking system, and a panic button. The four wheel disc antilock brakes, with large braking components, help to prevent wheel lockup when you must brake on a slippery surface.
The Ram 1500 Classic also has six airbags, supplemental side curtain airbags, door beams, crumple zones, and a high-strength steel frame rated at 50,000 psi.
If you need a dependable truck, that will also keep you safe, the Ram 1500 Classic would be a great choice for you.

Why Should I Reserve a Silverado EV?
If you want to drive an electric vehicle, but do not want to sacrifice the utility of a truck, the Silverado EV would be an amazing choice for you. It will hit roads in 2024, but you can reserve yours today with Dan Cummins.
The Silverado EV uses General Motor’s advanced Ultium EV platform, giving it versatile capability, powerful performance, and intuitive technology. The vice president of Chevrolet, Steve Hill, called the Ultium Platform a “critical enabler of next-level pickup truck performance for both fleet and retail customers, whether they are currently driving a Silverado or are considering a pickup for the first time.”
Whether you are looking to add an EV to your commercial fleet or have an EV truck to drive on Lexington streets, let’s do a deep dive into the features that make this game-changing truck so desirable.
Silverado EV Range and Charging
Chevrolet estimates that the Silverado EV will have a range of up to 400 miles. Charging is made easy due to public DC fast-charging technology – adding 100 miles of range in only 10 minutes. When combined with the available accessory power bar, the Silverado will offer up to 10 outlets, providing a total of 10.2kW. You can use this to power almost anything, including your home. You can also charge another EV using the available accessory charge cord, allowing you to share your power when someone else is in need.
If you’re looking to purchase the Silverado EV as a work truck, you’ll gain access to the Ultium Charge 360 Fleet Service. This service offers one of the most all-inclusive charging solutions in the industry for businesses.
If you want to use the Silverado EV as a personal vehicle, you will have Ultium Charge 360, designed to give you access to more than 100,000 charging points in the U.S. and Canada and simplify the charging process.
Game-Changing, Powerful Performance
You’ll be happy to learn that buying an all-electric truck does not mean you have to sacrifice powerful performance. The Silverado EV is powered by two electric motors, giving it up to a booming 664 hp with more than 780 lb.-ft. of torque[1]. GM estimates this will give a 0-60 mph time of fewer than 4.5 seconds. That’s undeniably fast.
The RST model will have adaptive air suspension to help you comfortably maneuver over any terrain you encounter. It will automatically adjust your suspension to the road conditions, resulting in a non-bumpy ride. This feature can also adjust the height of your vehicle, helping you to enter and exit the vehicle easier. The Trail Boss trim will add locking differentials and all-terrain tires, making your next off-roading adventure on a Kentucky trail even easier.
Chevrolet will also offer an electric four-wheel drive system, capable of delivering torque to all four wheels almost instantaneously, and four-wheel steering for a tighter turning radius.
The Silverado EV will have you covered if you want to be able to tow your boat to a nearby Kentucky lake. The RST trim will have a maximum towing capacity of 10,000 lb. and the WT will have 8,000 lb. max towing. Each capacity is more than enough for your adventures, but Chevrolet has also teased a maximum towing capacity of 20,000 lb. for the 2025 model.
A Modern, Luxurious Interior
The interior of the Silverado EV has an all-new look. As soon as you step into the Silverado EV, it will recognize you through a device and turn itself on. The traditional dash of the Silverado has been replaced by a sloping dash and two huge screens – an 11” driver information screen and a 17” infotainment system. The EV will also have a heads-up display with a 14” field of view. It will still have some physical buttons for the driver’s ease of use, including the volume and HVAC controls.
Chevrolet did not fall short on storage for the Silverado EV. They mounted the shifter stalk to the column, allowing for a massive seven-gallon storage bin between the dashboard and the middle armrest. Because there is nothing under the hood, Chevrolet added an e-trunk – a lockable, weatherproof compartment to fit whatever you need to keep safe.
The rear seat was moved forward from the traditional Silverado, helping to ensure anyone over six feet tall will still be comfortable in the back seat and have plenty of legroom. Back seat passengers also have their own HVAC system and heated seats on the RST trim.
The Silverado EV has a fixed glass roof, which lets you have a full view of the sky, while also being protected from UV and heat from the tinted glass and improving outward visibility. The traditional leather choices were dropped and replaced by sustainable and easy-to-clean materials such as vinyl and PVC.
A Futuristic Exterior
The Silverado EV truly looks like a truck of the future. It has an attractive, aerodynamic design that gives it one of the lowest drag coefficients of any available production full-size pickup truck[2]. It will be available exclusively in Crew Cab models, which has a short front overhang, giving it more spaciousness on the interior and better forward down vision.
The bed is 5’11” on the RST with the multi-flex midgate, with four 120-volt AC outlets and one 240-volt AC outlet, making the truck bed truly useful and functional. When you add the available Multi-Flex tailgate, you can get even more space in the truck bed, with the storage capability going up to 10’10”. A tonneau cover is also available, which allows items to be loaded into a lockable, weatherproof storage compartment.
With the functionality, plus the futuristic design of the exterior, you will ride in style in the Silverado EV, no matter if you’re on a Lexington/Louisville city street or a country road in Kentucky.
Innovative Infotainment System and Technology
The Silverado EV does not disappoint when it comes to technology. The dash is mostly digital, with a 17” diagonal LCD freeform infotainment screen and an 11” reconfigurable driver information center. The infotainment system has Google apps, navigation, and natural language voice commands built in. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, with in-dash navigation, Sirius XM satellite radio, and an onboard Wi-Fi hotspot.
The Silverado EV will get frequent software updates through Ultifi, a new Linux-based software program developed in-house at GM. This software will allow the driver to keep their vehicle up to date in a flexible and fast way.
Revolutionary Hands-Free Technology
The Silverado EV also has GM’s Super Cruise, which allows you to drive hands-free on more than 200,000 miles of compatible roads in the U.S. and Canada. It functions using Chevrolet Connected Services[3] and uses a real-time positioning camera, sensors, and LiDAR map data to locate curves in the road. It also includes a multitude of driver assistance tech, including adaptive cruise control, enhanced automatic emergency braking, and lane centering.
A Plethora of Safety Features
The Silverado EV was designed with your and your passengers’ safety in mind. Every Silverado EV comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist, a package that includes automatic emergency braking, front pedestrian braking, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, forward collision alert, IntelliBeam high beam assist, and a following distance indicator. In addition, there is a variety of available safety features, which include:
- Safety alert seat uses left, right, or both-side driver seat vibration pulses to help drivers identify the direction of potential crashes so they can act easily. The driver can also choose to add beeping crash avoidance alerts.
- Rear cross-traffic braking can help to avoid or reduce the severity of backing collisions with detected left or right cross traffic behind your vehicle while it’s in reverse. This feature provides alerts and can automatically provide emergency braking if a driver has not already braked.
- HD Surround Vision uses multiple cameras to display a digital overhead image of the area around your vehicle, along with a Rear Vision camera or front views. This works at low speeds and helps the driver to park and avoid nearby objects. Additional views on your camera display are also available.
