@@qbanlink25540hp is still a lot and more than most people need. But it’s funny you think a smaller displacement and turbos will get better mpg’s. On paper probably. But in real world I seriously doubt it. The F150 ecoboosts on paper get decent mpg’s. But in real world they get horrible mileage.

Very nice truck, and affordable based on comparable trucks and current prices. Only problem .......is, That these crook dealers are gonna mark it up by at least 15k.

[@WaPiTiChAsEr]

Jeep uses the Hurricane power plant on the Grand Wagoneer & it pumps out 500hp. The RHO has a similar weight rating as the JGW, however the motor is tuned for performance, towing & off-roading….vs….luxury, daily driving. Will be curious as to what the mpg on the RHO will settle at. The 5.7 & 6.4 hemi’s are great motors but suck down the fuel & get terrible gas mileage. All things stated, most don’t buy these types of vehicles for the gas mileage….having owned all the various versions of the 5th Gen 1500 & 2500, the fit & finish of these trucks accompanied with the power-trains offered make for awesome driving experiences.

I somewhat like the starting price, particularly when compared to the TRD Pro, but the cynic in me already knows that CDJR is notorious for expensive options. I suspect, and may be wrong, that the truck shown in this review is over $80k. As a car enthusiast it's cool to see RAM working on new specs like this RHO, but anecdotally I'm seeing strong evidence that buyers are pumping the brakes hard on these expensive trucks given how many are starting to pile up on dealer lots. Great job as always Joe and Lori!

Why do they need a RHO unless they are keeping the TRX too. TRX was great, waste of time rebranding. And this thing, well equipped costs 87K before taxes and accessories. So the answer is NO thank you Dodge. Will build my own off-roader.

[@Allstargamer1000]

Well, Ram died in 2024 and got replaced. Was lucky to get a Ram with a Hemi and a Ram logo badge on it. Nice truck, but still too expensive of a truck.should be 20k cheaper, and there is nothing special about it. TRX was special. Having a Hemi badge is special. Having a Turbo badge is not special. They don't even put a pentastar badge on the trucks. Also, you can't even get the V6 with the Rebel like you used to. Ram is going the wrong direction in my opinion

[@dieseldave12v18]

Is everyone really jumping on this nonsense? This is a TRX truck, but without the Hemi. Where have y’all been since 2020 when they first announced that truck? This isn’t a new truck. 😂 Ram is going woke and stopping the production of v8’s (except for some Ram HD trucks) This is a TRX but with the Removed Hemi Option (RHO).
