2025 Ram 1500 Full Review - No More V8

[@CK2957]

I had a 2022 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi and just traded it in for a 2025 3.0 i6. Cant believe how smooth the ride is. I'm a hemi fanboy and I'm impressed with this engine, especially with the gas mileage. I don't tow or haul heavy loads but use it more as a family truck. While the Hemi sounded so good and I still frown whenever I start the hurricane, I am happy with the decision I made though

[@pjgaidosh5189]

I haven't driven one of these yet but I have a open mind considering I was surprisingly impressed with the eco boost. Everybody loves a v8 but these twin turbo v6's put out impressive power.

[@dumbestbiscuit]

You missed with that comment that there's not much difference between 2024 and 2025. It might be true of the top trims, but the lower trims got a ton of features they didn't have in 2024. For example - Big Horn, gets adaptive cruise, blind spot / rear cross traffic alerts, automatic emergency braking. I mean, even the lowly tradesmen has these things now.

[@jamesbass9797]

@dumbestbiscuit ... Who needs or wants all that electronic garbage on any vehicle anyway? With all these new vehicles (no matter who makes it) all this electronic garbage is doing is spying on you, collecting information and then selling it to insurance companies and anyone who wants to buy it. Are you aware that all newer vehicles are built from their factories with hidden microphone and cameras in them? Newer vehicles are spying on you and tattle telling on you. The people involved with doing all this are nothing short of a bunch of perverts.

I actually have the same 2025 Ram Laramie. If you could get past not hearing that Hemi fire up or Roar when you step on the gas. You will enjoy this truck. The 2025 is bigger inside and also lifted higher than the previous Ram trucks. Look at the side view of the truck at the end of the video. You can put 22' tires on with no problem and no lift kit needed. Oh yeah, for whatever reason the new Rams don't come with side steps. That used to be standard. But hey what do I know. I only have about 400 hundred miles on mines. 😂

[@prayertool]

I just bought the ‘25 Rebel two days ago. Love it so far. Paid for the deployable steps but Ram seems to be confused if the 24 steps will work on the 25 due to potential “wiring” issues

[@Bucball]

@prayertool Congrats to ya bro. I feel they could've did more with Rebel tho. I definitely love the inside of the Rebel.

[@GligorovDimce]

I had the 2gen with the 5.9, 3rd gen with the 4.7, and i still have two 4th gen Hemi, not sure how i will feel for not having a V8 if i decide to buy this one, but i might wait couple of years to weed out the glitches and problems, some aftermarket exhaust for sound and probably buy extended warranty. For a daily driver, i think it will do great,but not for towing.

[@denisehernandez4509]

Just purchased a 2025 Ram Rebel. Never owned a dodge truck yet. Was a true Chevy Trail Boss owner. So far the ride quality is great. Just need time to check out the reliability. Lets' see how it goes!

[@imfloridano5448]

That standard straight 6 does not have forged internals like the high output does. I believe H.O. block is different from the standard one. More material in the block

[@everettgillusjr6060]

[@eugenepeoples2142]

I test drove this New 2025 RAM ..MY Take was u do not feel the rush of the old Hemi. It actually had me thinking I was Driving a EV. Engine sounds like my EGO lawnmower..BUT it is Fast..I decided to purchase the 2500 HD Laramie 2024..I just had to keep my Hemi Engine, maybe in a couple of years after the Kinks are worked out of this I6 Hurricane Engine, I might try it then. Gas saver for sure😂 still a Beautiful Truck .

[@toomanycarz001]

They'll bring back the HEMI in a different version I promise you

[@kingofqueens777]

I had a 2019 Laramie and I had the big screen the power side steps panoramic roof. I loved it and it sounded like a truck. I had no complaints. I don’t care if they they changed the engine. I just like all the features that the 2019 had like the tail lights were nice also 22 inch tires. It had a charger for your phone inside the console.

[@jimharrison3552]

I wish that they kept the oil dip stick, instead of relying on electric oil gauge.

V8 rules, forget these V6s.

The one featured in this video does not!

[@louiscongionti2394]

You want personality put a louder exhaust . Great truck

Have a 17 Longhorn 1500 with the Hemi. Although I’m a diehard V8 guy I’m open to this.

[@jeffojibway9284]

RIP Hemi…

[@LCculater]

I’m keeping my TRX till she dies , beast !!! I’ll be honest and I’m willing to give this a chance when I’m ready after 2 years because I have full warranty on my TRX . I love RAM products so I’ll have no choice 😂but to

[@dave3657]

Straight 6 is doable, but the turbo will shorten the life of the engine. I’ve had turbo Dodge before, didn’t last. Hopefully they bring back the hemi by the time the engines on these have all grenaded.

[@ervinjackson3261]

It’s just amazing how they can take the same truck from 2019 change one and two things charge your extra 20 or $30,000 dollars and you guys buy reliability still issue good luck with that cause I’m not giving them more money because it’s a new year same truck

[@davepeters271]

How can you say it’s junk when you’ve never driven one or you’re not driving it the reviews I’ve watched it’s been pretty amazing and I am a hemi guy

[@karlb8069]

How bout that!

[@Freddie-v8m]

No thanks. They’ll sell more of them if the paint a rainbow on them.

[@Dkosier]

That would make you buy it ?

[@brandon9715]

I’ll still take a naturally aspirated V8. Simpler maintenance, less to break.

[@franciscopichardo08]

Sure Only if I plan on keeping that V8 for 15 years smh 🤦‍♂️

[@ChristopherPagan-r9g]

Simpler than an Inline?

[@cfresh93]

The 5.7 reliability was horrible lol

[@simonbrunet5605]

Why no n/a inline six with port injection for base work truck.(To be affordable)

[@appleautos]

They kept there 3.6 v6 to be affordable in the base models rather than having to pay to develop yet another motor would have bumped that pricing up more.

[@buddyculley9710]

I just think that they should have still offered the Hemi as a special option.

[@LCculater]

What model is that ?

[@appleautos]

Laramie

[@scotthart9132]

It has a warranty, so garbage or not its good enough to trade in, in 3 or 4 yrs

Just traded 21 5.7 Bighorn for a 25 3.6 SST. Miss the Growl of V8. FACT: step on gas pedal of 2025. Truck flat out balls to wall. Regular commuting better gas mileage ( although that annoying shut off crap at lights and stops)

[@LeadStarDude]

F*ck Stellantis! Bring back the Hemi or go bankrupt!

[@chadjohnson7544]

Turd!!!! All these turbo 6 are junk. Seriously these manufacturers have destroyed their selves. People cant afford these crazy prices and to top it deal with cars that last 3 years.

[@jamesbass9797]

This engine might be alright for everyday driving, but it isn't worth a shit for reliability for towing. Those two turbos will eventually melt all the internals of that engine when it's under tow just like Ford's ecoboost engines do. As for me I will not be buying one. I will switch over to either Ford or GM V-8's. Ram is f**king up in my opinion.

[@AlexMartinez-uq2ye]

Imagine that??? A 2023-2024-2025 V6 engine performing great!....well of course I'll buy one!!.....it's a no brainer.

[@tj3988]

I6 performance data beats HEMI's V8 performance data. So, everybody crying over the sound clearly are in their feelings!

[@larrydash8330]

I got a 2025 limited. This is better than V8

I have had one ordered for 3 months and they have no clue when they are going to build it customer service has no answers and they keep cutting jobs

If they told people to stay from them then they don't sell & they be out of a job

[@speederz1]

ram service dept told me to stay away from these turbos there garbage and NO dip stick its on the dashboard when you select the oil options...so stay away from this garbage motor

[@JK-qe6qq]

No they did not!!!

[@aaronkowalewski659]

I feel like they dropped the ball on this engine. They should have given it port and direct injection to it. Its one thing that Ford learned with their ecoboost engines

[@karlb8069]

True that! But Ford got it right. I want one but I just might wait for that upgrade. Although, I haven't heard of any problems from the Jeep side yet.

[@aaronkowalewski659]

@karlb8069 Exactly. Me too! Ever since i heard about the high output Ram RHO ive been curious about getting one. I currently have a pretty modified f150 3.5l ecoboost with larger turbos, hpfp, downpipes etc and she's a beast. But I've also always wanted a supercharged 5.0 f150 and you can get a ford performance dealership to install a whipple supercharger for $12,400. The whipple supercharger kit comes out at the end of summer for the 24 model year f150 5.0. I may go that route.
