2022 Ram 1500 Lineup Adds Rugged BackCountry Edition

• Buyers of Big Horn or Lone Star trims of the 2022 Ram 1500 will now be able to add the BackCountry Edition package to add an off-road look to their truck.

• The package includes an off-road suspension system, all-terrain tires, skid plates, an electronic rear differential, and hill-descent control.

• The BackCountry Edition also includes useful utility features such as a bed extender, a spray-in bedliner, and adjustable bed tie-down hooks.

As if the Ram 1500 wasn't rugged enough, a new BackCountry Edition package will soon be available for buyers of the value-oriented Big Horn and Lone Star models. Intended to go up against rivals such as the Chevrolet Silverado Trailboss and FX4 versions of the Ford F-150, the Ram 1500 BackCountry Edition adds basic equipment one might need for wilderness adventures.

The package includes front skid plates, an electronic locking rear differential, off-road shock absorbers, all-terrain tires, and a hill-descent control feature. Going with the BackCountry Edition also adds several upgrades to the truck's bed, including adjustable tie-down hooks, a deployable bed step, a spray-in bed liner, and a bed extender.
