The 2025 RAM 1500 gets a refresh with tweaked styling, interior and tech upgrades and the substitution of new twin-turbo inline-6 engines replacing the beloved 5.7L HEMI V8. Are the changes enough to keep up with the ever-more-competitive trucks from competing brands, and with these changes would you take the RAM over its competitors? Thanks to RAM for providing this opportunity!

Funny that you said they made the grille larger to look more muscular like the 2500 because as soon as I started watching, I thought, "man, this thing is boarder-line suv/crossover looking now."

Beautiful truck no doubt. Ram needed to do something dramatic to bolster sales and reduce time on dealer lots. I wish they would've kept the HEMI or maybe messaged it a bit to increase mileage and power (easier said than done buy I don't see Ford or GM dropping their V8s...yet) and despite the New Hurricane engine that is no doubt more powerful and efficient, I feel that they're falling behind in regards to transmissions as GM and (I think?) Ford offers a 10 speed in their 1500s. Hopefully Ram sells a lot of these as I've been a big Dodge/Ram/Chrysler guy all my life and want to see them live on. The Hurricane has all the numbers and the efficiency but only time will tell if they're durable, I'm excited to see how they've held up after real world use for a couple years. Sadly I don't see myself buying one (even if I could afford one 😅) because I'm a die hard V8 guy and have not seen any other engine design be as durable and perform strong longer in trucks.

The PROBLEM with these small high strung turbo engines is this: 1. V8 engines don’t have to work as hard as these small turbo engines. These engines driving it daily are already MAXED OUT. If you use the truck to WORK…that small engine has to work even HARDER to keep up. How long is that motor going to last? The big V8 has room to do more without maxing it out. 2. With V8 you can use 87 Octane gas at the pump…..which is SUBSTANTIALLY less expensive than 93 or 91 octane. So basically the proposed better MPG the 6 cylinder turbo is supposed to deliver….is OFFSET by the higher price you’re paying at the pump for Premium fuel. When you fill up you’re now going to pay $4 to $5 per gallon when the V8 is under $3/ga.

The PROBLEM with your logic is it is ridiculous. These engines are nothing new. Explain to me why GMs 6.2 is a literal ticking time bomb right now. That's an NA tried and true engine that is now wicked unreliable. The idea that FI applications are just inherently unreliable is hilarious. This idea that truck buyers are just big bad towing dudes looking to pull their bobcat on a steel trailer 500 miles per day is so funny. The extreme majority of buyers are driving it as a normal car less than 30 miles/day towing nothing, and they maybe tow their camper or boat a handful of times in a year.

Beautiful truck, but a straight 6 engine, cool passenger side infotainment screen, new trim badges, and new interior color doesn’t justify a 15K-20K markup and I’m a Ram guy. These half tons shouldn’t be running over 72K even for the well optioned upper trims. Base model base bones Tradesman’s trim running like 45K now. At 90K these trucks are priced clearly in Cadillac Escalade, Lincoln Navigator, Porsche Cayenne, BMW X7, and Mercedes GLS territory. I’ll gladly check back to see if Ram has a lot of inventory on lots in months to come and then I may be more interested when they giving 15K or more rebates.

It’s not like the whole truck line prices around 90K.

That straight 6 is a much more sophisticated powertrain. You'll never get the low end torque and driveability out of a V8 that you'll get from a twin turbo straight 6. Anyone who says otherwise hasn't driven one. Inline 6 sounds a lot better than a V6 although it is no v8. I think once people drive them, they won't miss the v8 anymore unless all you want is v8 sound. It will be better with towing, easier to scoot around traffic, and will make it hard to be happy going back to a V8. Will it be as reliable? We'll see.

I have nothing against a i6. Just as any engine, it's about who makes them. The french/Italian companies don't quite have a reputation of dependable engines. My family worked for and have owned/ still own chrysler products especially they're truck models. Which one of them reached 30 years old. It's sad how they're becoming more and more "european". (I understand things needed to happen for chrysler to "survive" but still)

Sound is a big one but also reliability. Not that 5.7 hemi was the most reliable engine out there but once you add forced induction, you kill reliability. Toyota is having issues with their turbo tundras. Fords riddled with problems. Now you’re throwing a stelantis I6 into a ram. Goodluck

I said many years ago, if truck companies want reliability, they need to go straight 6 turbo. Ford had a straight 6 that was a legend in 80’s and 90’s. I had over 298k on mine. Had a manual too. It’s the most balanced engine design. That’s why trailer trucks all have straight 6 turbos.

@@marcdelgado393A straight 6 forced induction is way more balanced than a V6. A V, you have tugging left to right. A straight, you have precision going up and down in an extremely backed cycle. The secret is longer block with larger pistons. Thats why trailer trucks are able to go 5 million miles. Balance and precision.

@weegeemike 3 ай бұрын
Agreed. It makes me super sad as a long time Dodge/Ram owner to say that I would no longer consider the Ram because it doesn't offer a V8. I grew up with trucks having V8s and any truck that didn't have one wasn't a REAL truck. Maybe I'd start considering if I get behind the wheel and liked how it drove but at the end of the day, nothing is going to outlast a V8. I know the Hemis had issues but a lot of that can be attributed to the stupid cylinder deactivation and the engine has been put long enough to where we know what to expect and know the remedies for potential problems. I doubt that this Hurricane will ever come close to the reliability and longevity of the old LA/Magnum 5.2/5.9 Dodge engines or the GM 350 5.7 and 5.3 V8s of 20+ years ago. Manufacturers aren't even trying to hide the fact that they're making vehicles meant to last no longer than 7-10 years and it shows with all these new turbocharged engines. I hope that I'm wrong honestly as only time will tell if these Hurricane engines will come anywhere close to the reliability and ease of maintenance of the old school V8s.

We barely ever see turbos blow. It’s such a simple design. Technology has come a long way these days. Engines are built for boost these days. These will be easier to work on than a V8. Years ago, turbo engines were not designed for turbo pressure. These days, it’s easy to build an engine designed for turbos. New technology Head gaskets are built to handle that high boost with ease. The placement of the turbos and secondary water cooling is a huge bonus here.
