The 2006 Dodge Ram Mega Cab is available as three different models based on payload capacity, starting with the Ram 1500 Mega Cab and moving up through the 2500 to the “Big Kahuna” 3500. Dodge provides a choice between two- and four-wheel drive on any Mega Cab, but the dually version is limited to 3500-series models. Mega Cabs are decked out in your choice of two trim levels; standard SLT or Laramie.

Every SLT comes with air conditioning, a CD player, and an overhead console with a trip computer and compass.

Optional equipment includes front bucket seats with available six-way power driver’s adjustment, a power-sliding rear window, a power sunroof, a bedliner, trailer towing mirrors, power adjustable pedals, and a six-disc in-dash CD changer with Infinity speakers. SLT buyers can also add a UConnect hands-free wireless communication system with Bluetooth technology, Sirius satellite radio, a navigation system, and a rear-seat DVD entertainment setup.

In premium Laramie trim, the Dodge Ram Mega Cab adds leather upholstery, heated front buckets with six-way driver’s adjustment, dual-zone climate control, 17-inch chrome aluminum wheels, and a Sentry Key engine immobilizer. Other standard goodies include a power-sliding rear window, a six-disc in-dash CD changer with Infinity speakers, Sirius satellite radio, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, a security alarm, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror.
