[@kenpratte]

The title should be RAM 1500, not 2500..

[@Governor1993]

Right, that would be cool if it was though

[@trentcardwell8620]

Yeah wtf

[@Danielpeter2344]

Yeah, the 2500 is the Power Wagon, the Rebel is the 1500.

[@kenpratte]

@@Danielpeter2344 There is also a 2500 Rebel.

[@bostondan77]

Kids love that front middle seat, even if you don't need the six person capacity.

[@davila3989]

Mid 50’s for warlock is disrespectful

[@is6566]

Carlos Tavares specials. Cheap parts for cost cutting but high prices for consumer exploitation. CEO gone but NOT forgotten, yet.

[@motorhead_jt21]

I can’t believe y’all are dumping the 5.7 Hemi lol. Insane decision

[@gpaje]

When I bought my Rebel in 2019, I was a little worried as a Ford guy, but in the last 5 years the truck has been flawless, however not really interested in the mid cycle since the prices have gone up so much, they added a few things but cheapened a few things such as halogen tail lights! Plus prefer the V8.

[@Big_ReggBBT]

Ive driven a long way with my full family in my truck. I have a 2021 ram 1500 Laramie. The comfort has never been an issue for us.

[@heembuck2157]

If Stellantis was smart, they’d give people the option to choose between a 392 or the hurricane engine in the RHO. I’m interested in a RHO with the hurricane…. It’s not a v8 but that engine gets more power, easily modifiable, better gas mileage and lighter in weight. Going to save my money for a year and wait for some long term reviews to come out

[@khyoon14]

I agree the only thing I'm concerned with is the reliability of the hurricane at this point. Time will tell... For me 392 for me just bc of that.

[@the305hauler]

Don't forget about the 345. That's a good contender for the 1500 as well

[@RAM-KINGOFTRUCKS]

RAM-1500 KING OF TRUCKS 👌👍

[@robertannable9584]

**Correction** The Big Horn WAS a value truck. Now, it’s almost as expensive as a Silverado High Country. I’m a RAM fanboy, and these are easily the most overpriced trucks in America.

[@JoelDean-f9n]

Thing I like about the Rams is the build quality seems really good and the engine bays are really clean and tidy

[@TX1836]

I would love to have a Warlock with 6.4 liter hemi out of the 2500.

[@ruigomes6778]

Every manufacture have their pros and cons, but the problem is the price of those trucks.

[@riffly]

Great camera work from Jen👍

[@icare7151]

❤the Rebel X interior.

[@sail72]

if the Warlock was in the $40k range I'd be interested. in the $50s, not worth a look.

[@shanes481]

I'm in for high 30s if they had a v8. I don't want a hurricane at any price.

[@Donfrasl]

Go to a dealer and negotiate and you'll get it in the 40s. You have the leverage now a days.

[@baldomerovega65]

In Texas there 42k after rebates right now

[@baldomerovega65]

You can get 2025 warlock for 42k 3.0 hurricane 2025 Ford fx4 Stx with5.0 for 44k witch it’s literally the ford rattler from couple years back And Chevy custom trailboss for 43k -45 k

[@RJ_100]

@@Donfrasl Exactly. It appears most of the people in the comments are a bit slow. It’s sooo easy to get $10k off a Ram right now with your 2024 inventory being sky high and 2025 being around the corner. Well easy if the person has a decent IQ.

[@SilentHunterYakfishing]

Nice trucks, no doubt. Some little things I miss however. Rambox choice for all colors, snowflake certified tires, full LED lighting in general (Rebel still has bulbs in the back and partial up front… come on), how’s about body-cavity-sealing and underbody coating 😮 , corrosion is granted even after a very short time, an absolut waterproofed bedcover that seals the bed anytime, a lower housing below the engine to shield dust, dirt and salt to keep the engine clean.

[@tracywaters6484]

Love Ram trucks but I really wish there was a Ram full size SUV. Make it off the 1500 platform. I know they have the Jeep Wagoner but not really digging that design.

[@darwonboyful]

Super nice trucks. I actually really like the warlock

[@pjhhermans]

I drove the trx for 130000 km on the tyres. They are great. Can’t wait to get my rho in

[@tommyg.6820]

We all know truck pricing is crazy. Just over a year ago I got a brand new Nissan Titan Pro4x for 52k otd. A warlock costing the same or more 1 year later is bonkers. I love Ram trucks and would be 1st in line for that Warlock at 40k max. Hopefully the vehicle market stabilizes and comes back to reality. I went Nissan because it had all the features I wanted with hands down the best warranty around. I've been warned plenty that the warranty will be needed, but 5yr 100k btb will more than suffice for me. Thanks TFL as always great content.

[@843MudMafia.]

How about the v8

[@atg1338]

Move on

[@B49nope]

​@@atg1338V8 NA is by far the best engine.

[@TX1836]

V8s may be on the way back now that Chucky is gone.

[@briank.3539]

Now that there is a new CEO of Stellantis, the V8 may once again be an option. I think that that should ALWAYS be an option.

[@atg1338]

@briank.3539 omg you v8 people just need to move the F on😠

[@MrEagleXX]

BRAD.. I hope you see this. Lots of people placed orders for RHO in April, May and June. None of them are getting built

[@Detox2021]

For whatever reason they are building September and October orders in front of everyone else.

[@is6566]

@Detox…. Practical thinking. The April/May/June folks are already upset but fulfilling recent orders keep everyone else happy. 😃👍

[@Wicked_Runs]

Like them all but that Warlock is really speaking to me. As long as they have attainable incentives for $15-20k off MSRP I'm interested. Otherwise nope.

[@andreloshon3344]

great video👍👍👍👍

[@manoloprpr]

If TESLA dropped prices Stellantis should as well. Slash 15% from MSRP to realistic prices and then add the 1-3% under MSRP for close to dealer purchase price.

[@henrysboy2]

Good looking trucks. Bet they sell in bunches. That Warlock is going to be very popular.

[@NoLimitsCommemorativ]

Nome of the above.

[@ramrider1453]

I’ll take one of each 😂. Nice trucks and each has there purpose.

[@stdenis9327]

RHO all day 💯✅️✨️

[@RafaelParedes-w9s]

How we making it a big deal of 6 seats , when that center seat has been a thing since I can remember, dodge up-charging over things that have always been 😂

[@1antisupercat]

Radar cruise control, great but got rid of LED tail lights in higher trim. Cost cutting JUNK. I’ll keep my 18 hemi rebel.

[@richardnottelmann58]

This may seem like a nitpick, but I do not understand why modern trucks make you choose between cupholders or seating capacity. My 2001 extended cab Silverado gives you both by having the cup holders in the rear suicide doors. Also, my front cup holders are from the factory built into the floorboard hump. And I do not have to fold down my center front seat to access the couple holders.😢😢

[@homertalk]

Sunburst Trail, Joshua Tree, nice place to meet.

[@Nativeindi123]

Moved way to high up market which I get it it is what people buy like you can almost always upsell someone on say a Laramie if they can do a big horn. But the prices have reached a breaking point. I paid 34k for a loaded and I do mean loaded big horn in 2016. Less than 10 years later a loaded big horn is 50k plus.

[@dash9680]

So electric truck that has a 6 cylinder gas engine to charge it. What do you call that?? How that makes sense.

[@is6566]

Range extender. It makes perfect sense. You can use it as EV in 90% of time driving around your town and charging at home for pennies but not getting stranded in the woods off road or on the interstate when road tripping. Doesn’t require changing the driving habits but at the same time saves money on daily operation. Better than hybrid or pure ICE or pure EV.

[@chriswaroblak979]

How about making it flat towable and regenerates while towing. Would be perfect for towing behind my motorhome

[@TheOffroadCamper]

That hurricane six seems to be a real bad idea in general. The only thing is stopping me from buying a Wagoneer to tow my new base camp trailer is that the only Wagoneers rated to tow my trailer have that new in-line six hurricane motor which is proving to be unreliable. They need to put the 62 or the 64 in the big truck, especially for those looking to tow.

[@dcman4902]

Nice trucks but good lord the prices.. an it’s not just ram.. btw… good lord.. but might be worth a look at a good used one in a couple years. Stupid to buy a new one anymore.

[@paul.aragon]

can the shocks and fender flares on the RHO be installed on a Big Horn?

[@chrisbrennan2208]

Any chance Brant can explain why early orders for the truck are not fulfilled while newer orders are completed. I ordered mine in July and nothing. Ordered in November are being shipped. There are a lot of April may orders not moved either. Doesn't make sense

[@basedsavage1713]

I want the massaging seats from the RHO in my TRX

[@macmiller4345]

I love my 22 Rebel, but it may find a new home to get a RHO

[@jdfleetguy28]

Interesting video, good job Andre. Not sure why the video editor put 2500 in the title? The video appears to be all about 1500 trucks, not 2500 HD trucks?

[@khyoon14]

how are the hurricane engines doing? anyone have a 1 year review?

[@drnick40]

All sounds good but all their trucks are $20k overpriced.

[@ribbit1964]

How will the “resignation” of CEO affect Stellantis?? Will hemi return now?

[@jdfleetguy28]

I sure hope so, I love Ram trucks, but now there is no v8 I am only looking at GM and Ford till Ram brings back a v8 option.

[@nathanbillingsley42]

​@jdfleetguy28 the hurricane has more hp and torque than the hemi.

[@stevebachtel]

No. The straight six is a worldwide engine platform. Factories switched to produce this engine for the next decade. This engine will show up across all stalantis lines. You don’t engineer a whole new platform and then go back.

[@is6566]

No.

[@TheRobert072]

Certainly not in the next 1-2 years, the vehicles were all now designed for the 6 cylinder and the production was converted from the 8 cylinder HEMI to the new 6 cylinder... furthermore, the last Hemi 8 cylinder would no longer meet the emissions regulations, therefore Stellantis would have to build a completely new V8! It is like it is, the new 6 cylinder is not an bad engine, you should test drive one, and you can Easy to tune these, there are already videos on KZbin so up to 1000 HP different exhaust system, but, also the standard SST HO is quicker and more agile than the old TRX... Test it and you will see...

[@wesharris07]

I love the RHO

[@jerremyvinson6310]

Rho is hot garbage.

[@wesharris07]

@ you’ve driven one?

[@jerremyvinson6310]

@ I own a trx and I can confidently say the rho is hot garbage. There is tons of issues with the hurricane engine. Don’t take my word just google hurricane engine fail Reddit and there is tons of forums and videos of these engines.

[@wesharris07]

@ sounds good.

[@Detox2021]

How many walk-around videos are you going to do. Let's see some performance numbers and action!!!

[@richardalexander1838]

PLEASE HELP. A ton of us ordered our RHOs in April and May and have NOT seen any movement. Can you please mention that to some of your connections at Ram? This video is with the "acting" CEO, no? Please, please, please. No one knows why they're building trucks ordered in Oct. and Nov. before trucks ordered in April and May with the same options. Thanks in advance. God bless.

[@is6566]

Quick solution for you. Cancel earlier order and place a new one and be happy.

[@kanzzon]

the best out of those 3 trucks is a Ford F150

[@ryanmiller6560]

Just picked up a 2025 Bighorn for 45k, prices are dropping quite a bit.

[@Darcity1]

RAM RHO!!!

[@kcrady72]

Oh, it looks like an entry level truck.

[@simontallboy209]

Skid plates should be standard on 4x4.

[@ALMX5DP]

I dont necessarily think so. I have a 4wd for adverse winter conditions, not for any significant offroading. I presume many owners want or use their 4wd for similar.

[@Jcruzer70]

What the Rebel has grown in over the years is its ridiculous price 🤣🤣

[@truckstuff-ic7ne]

Gotta clear out the '24s. We are only days away from 2025.

[@tatecurfman7475]

where is the 2500 at ?

[@icare7151]

The 2025 Ram Rebel with the new Cummins & 8 speed transmission is going to be interesting. Being over $90,000 not so much.

[@who2u333]

"nice piano gloss" A trim only manufacturers seem to like anymore.

[@maurosc3ner]

crazy to see how those over 50k+ trims lack of normal car features (i.e., DRLs). Clients are getting squeezed over here in north america

[@blueshoes8481]

Dang, so much stuff to break on new trucks. What will still be working in 10 years?

[@davidm8717]

and how long into the future are they going to stock the gazillion more parts these new engines and trucks have?

[@terrymcginnis5206]

Just can't bring myself to do it. Not until I see these new engines build a reputation of consistent dependability. If I'm spending that much money, she better last at least 250k miles with little to no mechanical intervention.

[@stevoeight]

The attempts to separate the rho from the TRX is pretty pathetic. “It has different headlights”….. “it’s its own thing”. Lmao ok. Sure. It’s its own thing that literally no one asked for.

[@jerremyvinson6310]

Rho is garbage why would I ever get rid of my Trx for a weak ass straight 6.

[@icare7151]

They need parking sensors on the wide RHO fenders.

[@pachy44]

Too bad they don't put diesels on the 1500 no more.... I have a 2016 limited with 106,000 mile... I love that truck....

[@motexas9092]

You exposed this guy a couple times first was the skid plates on rebel x he was dumbfounded and also it doesn’t have hands free driving just a unqualified representative from Stellantis

[@joshuaedgar2248]

Please get rid of the two tone paint on the RHO

You can get monotone as an option. Two tone just seems to be the popular pick.

Where are the questions about it's long term reliability??

If somebody hasn't pointed it out already or you guys did not figure it out your thumbnail text says 2500. These are all 1500 trim levels just saying.

So their special color for the Rebel X is old man hearing-aid beige. Tommy would NOT approve.

[@scottgililland1526]

André, Great segment on the Ram Sport Trucks. I have a RHO on order and can't wait to take delivery. Unfortunately Ram is having difficulty getting customer orders filled! There is an owners RHO Forum which I'm certain you have seen. The Ram rep in this video has been contacted by several of us on the Forum, trying to get some information on our order status. Can you inquire as to what the problems are? Anything you can do would be very much appreciated.😌

[@icare7151]

No wheel liners? No undercoating? No purchase!

You video name has 2500 not 1500. I was hoping to see the new HDs. 🤣

[@nismo370z4]

Overpriced, but don't forget included with every trim is a lot of mandatory trips to your Dealer for recalls and repairs. 😂😅😂

[@turdferguson2839]

The 2025 trucks are a big disappointment, a 80k Rebel looks exactly like a 50k Warlock... thats crazy. The grill and lights are a lot cheaper than the 2024 trucks and the RHO has the same front end of a warlock or tradesman, completely unacceptable.

[@sargemil1]

who wouldn't expect led headlights on a 50k vehicle?

[@danthompson1467]

All any of the package names do is take more of your money for a junk truck for you to drive to get a latte at the yuppie shop

Whoever designs the Ram interiors needs to do so far dodge as well bc their truck interiors are better than their cars by a mile

[@BLTwithmustard]

Don’t buy a ram product right now. My dad specially ordered a 2022 rebel GT hemi and its absolute junk. The ucconnect screen has a mind of its own and glitches out randomly not allowing us to use navigation or access our heated seats when we need them. Took it the the dealer and they put a brand new ucconnect screen in under warranty and its doing the exact same thing.

[@USAWILL]

Classy high gloss plastic. What a bunch of BS. The warlock used to be an affordable option for many that wanted a full size vehicle and if they needed to they would upgrade to the rebel but now I can meet another truck out of reach for many. And worst of all now they're only option is that hurricane engine

Great trucks too bad they're priced to high won't no one be able to afford them, the those msrp prices will No be the prices we get. They will be all marked up then on top of that the dealer will try to force addendums, it's a freakin mess buying a vehicle.

[@bubbabiker5653]

A Power Wagon Tradesman for $45k. And that's a maybe.

[@icare7151]

Needs 3 color tail lights. Ram is skimping on everything. Cheap RAM parts are ugly and likely will not hold up.

[@Eightball2516]

Ram needs a 1500 power wagon the warlock should be cheaper seeing they are getting rid of the tradesman and cheaper trucks that they had in the past bring back the v8

@@nathanbillingsley42 welcome to the global economy. At least Ford and Chevy haven't been historically poorly run and bought and pawned off by various foreign companies for the over the last 2 decades.

so the real Warlock was a 2 door, step side pickup and had gold piping graphics. so this thing has nothing to do with a warlock.
