In this review, we will explore the 10 unbelievable details that make the Bruder 02502 the ultimate pickup toy for any play scenario.
10 Unbelievable Details of the Bruder 02502 RAM 2500
- Opening Cab Doors: The Bruder 02502 features four doors that actually open, allowing you to fit up to four Bworld figures inside the spacious cabin for a complete role-play experience.
- Spring-Loaded Axles: For realistic off-road action, both the front and rear axles are spring-loaded. This allows the Bruder 02502 to navigate uneven terrain, climbing over obstacles just like the real Power Wagon.
- Functional Steering Extension: Using the included steering wheel extension that slides through the roof hatch, you can steer the front wheels manually.
- Opening Tailgate with Sturdy Hinges: The tailgate opens downward with a smooth, realistic motion. It’s built to stay open while loading “cargo” like sand, rocks, or Bruder accessories.
- Large Truck Bed for Maximum Utility: The truck bed provides plenty of space to carry Bruder pallets, crates, or even a small Bruder skid steer loader, making this model a true workhorse.
- Durable High-Detail Tread Tyres: The massive, rugged tyres are made of high-quality material that provides excellent grip on various surfaces, from living room carpets to garden mud.
- Removable Drawbar Coupling: At the rear, you’ll find a hitch that is compatible with all Bruder trailers. This turns the Bruder 02502 into a powerful towing machine for horse trailers or construction gear.
- Clear-Glass Cab Windows: The windows are made of high-quality, transparent polycarbonate, allowing you to see the detailed interior dashboard and steering wheel without opening the doors.
- Compatible with Light and Sound Module: The Bruder 02502 features a mounting interface on the roof where you can install the Bruder Light and Sound Module (sold separately) for extra realism.
- Authentic RAM Branding: From the iconic bold front grille to the “Power Wagon” decals and RAM badges, the Bruder 02502 is a masterpiece of officially licensed detail.
Why the Bruder 02502 is the Perfect Choice
The Bruder 02502 is more than just a toy truck; it’s a tool for imaginative play. Because it is made from high-quality, weather-resistant ABS plastic, it’s just as comfortable in the garden mud as it is in the playroom. The durability ensures that this RAM 2500 can withstand the most intense “off-road” sessions.
Enhancing the Experience with Bworld Figures
To get the most out of your Bruder 02502, we recommend adding Bworld figures. These articulated characters can sit in the driver’s seat, hold the steering wheel, and interact with the truck’s various moving parts. This adds a layer of realism that keeps children engaged for hours.

Comparing the RAM 2500 with the Bruder Jeep Wrangler
While both are great off-roaders, the Bruder 02502 RAM 2500 offers more utility thanks to its large truck bed. If your child loves “hauling” things from one place to another, the RAM is the clear winner. The Jeep is great for pure exploration, but the Bruder 02502 is a workhorse.
Final Verdict: Is it worth it?
If your child loves “hauling” things or exploring rough terrains, the Bruder 02502 is the clear winner. Compared to other models like the Bruder Jeep or Land Rover, the RAM 2500 offers more cargo space and a more imposing presence. It is a robust vehicle that lives up to the RAM name.
