The 5.7 is best

[@xRSAkingx]

I hardly tow but I fill the bed pretty well a couple times a year. Otherwise it’s just my daily driver. The v6 is perfectly fine. Super quiet and smooth. Everyone complains about the lack of power but GMs legendary 5.3 truck engine made similar power and it was good enough to keep in their trucks all throughout the early 2000s.

[@cjmoore7240]

Got my 2022 RAM Limited Longhorn with the e-torque V8. Love it and love the sound of a V8.

[@kiddkiddstoy9867]

The etourqe is optional in the V8 and standard on the 5 gen V6. If you dont want the V6 etourqe, you will have to buy the classic. I have the V6 etourqe and am very satisfied with it so far.

[@kevenclinton4970]

The 6 cylinder has more off the line then the 5,7 hemi I have owned both .the 6 gets great mpg.

[@Hello_Ladies]

I have a '17 Limited with the 5.7 Hemi, no etorch, and it's been great so far.

[@mike650r]

I have had 3 Ram 1500s with Hemi engines in the last 5 years. I currently have a 2017 Ram 4x4 with a Hemi with Eco Mode (or whatever they call it). I have really loved every one of them, but 2 weeks ago, my Hemi blew up with 100,600 miles on it. I didn't even have the Hemi Tick. I had the dealer put in a Remanufactured Hemi with a 3 year 100,00 mile warranty. No doubt, I will get rid of it in about 2 years.

[@jamespaul1835]

I work for a Ram dealer and have driven all power trains many times. The V6 is for the person who doesn’t care and doesn’t tow but wants a truck. Towing with this engine works but it’s revving high the whole time. The hemi is the best overall option but mpg is painful. It’s the best choice for short distance driving. The 3rd gen eco diesel is a wonderful power train if you ride the torque curve and don’t expect the acceleration of the V8. Mpg on our 2 wheel drive parts delivery truck has a lifetime average of 27 on almost 80% highway driving. I usually just use work trucks if I need one but recently I bought an eco diesel when we were down to our last 2022 Big Horn. Ram stopped letting us order that motor. I have added the Banks Derringer and now I have the responsiveness of the V8 with way better fuel economy and torque more like our Cummins diesels on our 2500 and 3500 trucks. I’m living the dream.

[@zxtenn]

Thats right, i have a 2023 Classic Warlock quad cab with the 3.6, it has the tow package but it doesnt see any use for that. Actually a Nissan Frontier had 310 hp and more towing capacity that my warlock but i wont be selling mine and take a big depreciation on the 1st year for a Frontier SL or Pro 4X

[@stevenblack9324]

I am getting 7mpg more with my V6 over my friends 5.7. You are correct though, I do not tow and I wanted a truck to do some hauling back and forth from the hardware store and to the dump. 🙂

[@yankee4424]

I got a 3.6 and don’t regret it at all. It’s all the truck that I need. So far it’s been the best truck I’ve ever owned.

[@jonathoncouchey7151]

Yes. This is the point. Many people live in states where only a fee roads are 70 max at 60 to 65 the pentastar will destroy the other engines. It isn't even close.

[@justinm9815]

Except that 3.6 pentastar will have way less issues then the hemi. I’ve had 3 now and zero issues with the first two even pushing almost 400000km. Have a new Durango with the 3.6 now and gets great fuel mileage compared to the hemi I test drove for a few weeks

[@yankee4424]

I bought a 2024 1500 in August. When I decided that Ram was what I wanted to go with, I was all about the Hemi. I started researching and found quite a few issues with the Hemi, and virtually none with the 3.6. In the end I went with the 3.6 and I have been 100% satisfied with it. Would do it all over if I was given a second chance.

[@jeremygregory7178]

Kinda wish ram tried a 4.8 v8 pentastar. I think it would rip and be fuel efficient.

[@smj1250]

I had 8 new Rams. All were hemi's except my current one, which is the V6 Pentastar. Im shocked how good it is, the power, quietness, and fuel mileage. It's amazing on the highway as well. I wish i would have done this sooner, but my ego got the best of me in the past. It amazes me how smooth and quiet it is. Just an honest truck with no frills.

[@RealRickCox]

A friend sells Dodge products in the Seattle area. He just took a 2022 Ram 1500 in on a trade. MSRP was $70k and they're selling it with 1500 miles for $57k. The reality is that the first owner probably paid $77K or more with tax, license and fees and those 1500 miles cost him at least $20,000. That's an enormous loss.... it really highlights the issues with paying top dollar for vehicles new off the lot.

[@Shurikmuff]

I got 2022 limited, brand new, for $18k lower than msrp, dealer and factory 4x4 discounts. Would never buy it for full price, not worth it. While preowned used, 2 year old limiteds, selling for higher than i paid new. Redicilous

[@edhcb9359]

If the guy didn’t get at least $10k or $12k off MSRP when he bought it then he’s an idiot.

[@jamespaul1835]

$18,000 off is a bit of a stretch. Sounds like a “my fish is this big story”. You can get some great deals buying last years model new but our dealership has never sold one for $18k off since the mortgage crisis where we had to purge stale inventory.

[@Shurikmuff]

@@jamespaul1835 well.... thats what you think, only a story to you. i am in canada, toronto area. we had 9k country wide factory discount, 6k dealer weekend discount and 3k while closing the deal discount to close the deal, plus few freebies such as tinted windows, anf tanneau cover for the box, 4 years FREE oil changes and tire rotations. i was on the trip to dallas TX, when i decided to purchase a ram... called in about 10 dealers (when hitting the internet, didnt realize how many dodge ram dealers are in the 1 hour drive radious, lots). the bussy locations, were only offering the official country wide discounts and had no interest to negotiate anything. but locations 30-45 minutes drive from the core, were actually interested to close the deal, approaching end of the month. anyhow, 2 hours on the phone, made it happen for me. i was very particular in colour and trim i wanted, and got it. the only option i did not get was the panoramic sun roof. the tri colour white, i really wanted didnt have that option, but the tow package instead which i dont really need. no big deal.

[@eddieb9102]

Completely agree 👍💯

[@waynefoster2250]

The ecodiesel by far is the better engine. Even with the cost of diesel being higher I can go further than the 5.7. It takes 2 tanks of gas to match the ecodiesel.

[@scottgriffin2005]

I like the 5.7Etourqe. You convinced me to not get the 3.6 for my towinig tasks. Altough I loved that motor in my Challenger. I will be towing a 20 to 25 foot travel trailer in the rockies and will be pushing the 5.7 engine to its max use.

[@TxJacob713]

The v6 can tow it. It just can't do it every day.

[@TheGwhope]

I had a 2019 1500 Laramie 5.7 without etorgue then traded it for a 2021 1500 5.7 without etorgue Laramie night edition and loved them both

[@GodsUltimateWeapon]

Love Your Video Reviews and I have been watching them for quite some time! I got a 2019 Ram 1500 Big Horn with the Hemi 5.7L V8 (No E-Torque)! Absolutely NO COMPLAINTS, and NO PROBLEMS - even at 70,000 miles! I will take my Hemi over that V6 and Diesel ANY DAY OF THE WEEK. Nothing compares to that SOUND when you STEP ON THE GAS, and I am still getting around 19-20 mpg on the Highway😉!

[@1gr8oil]

I have a 2020 RAM REBEL with the 3.92:1 Axle, and it is a powerhouse! I love it. Very smooth and quiet as well. I pull a 27 ft Travel Trailer, and it pulls very well!

[@vr4787]

The 5.7 Hemi has come a long way in 20 years. With the 8 speed it just goes and they’re not super hard to mod or maintain in the Ram. Wished they’d keep it as some kind of variant (4.7 displacement with a turbo or hybrid setup) and just replace the 3.6 with the Hurricane.

[@brandonwilliams1067]

I test drove the 5.7. I was really impressed with the power, and the quiet interior. I’m not a fan of the eco diesel. It just doesn’t have the performance for the cost vs savings. Even in the BigHorn you can get a very nicely equipped pickup. Keep up the great work, Ben!

[@jeffreycollins2273]

Ecodiesel... smooth, quiet power! Now that the price of diesel is down it makes more sense. I average 19-21 around town and 25-28 on the highway with 33" M/T tires.

[@cavolpert]

My 3.6 average 22mpg (warlock 3.21 gears and 33 inch load range e) my 5.7 3.55 and stock tires got 14 mpg

[@tylerpease9968]

I have personally had 3 different Rams, 1 of each of these engine options. All were 4th gen trucks, and I fully agree with these ratings Ben! I’m in my 2018 Hemi now and it’s my favorite vehicle I have ever owned.

[@trcass1]

good segment. Ram has always been ahead of the others in terms of comfort. I've had a late 90's Ram 1500, a 2000 Ram 2500 5.9 6 speed which was a brute, a 2014 Ram Sport 5.7 Hemi auto and now a 2022 Ram Rebel 1500 Echo-diesel. of those.....i loved them all. they were all solid trucks. i think i like my Echo-diesel the best because it was likely my last truck so i special ordered it and got everything on it that i wanted to include the 33 gallon fuel tank for extended range. it topped out at around $79000 off the lot. I only get about 21 mpg around town and maybe 23-25 if going on a long or extended trip. i think its the difference in the tires. The Rebel comes with the off road tires verses the other models that have all season radials. My nephew has a 2021 Echo-diesel and he regularly gets 28 mpg but he has the all season radials. Fuel prices shot up after i got it in June. i was driving over 100 miles round trip to work each day in a 3.6 Wrangler and then a 3.6 Gladiator which got ok mileage but not great. other than the current cost of fuel and the crappy Uconnect radio which seems to have my SIRIUS radio stations drop off randomly, no complaints. thanks for the segment.

[@TheOhsemix]

Biggest downfall of the ecodiesel is emission of emissions isn’t a big deal in your area. Get the eco diesel and delete the emissions you won’t regret it. They are a far better and more reliable truck that ways

[@wanted-33]

Great comparison Ben. It should help those that are considering engine choice in their new Ram 1500. I had the 3.6L in my Wrangler, and the little engine did everything I ask without a grumble. But with interstate driving it needed the high RPMs to keep the Jeep at speed. Uphill on the interstate it would hover around 3K up to 35K rpms. I considered the 3.6L for my '22 Ram 1500. However, I decided to go with the 5.7L, because the mpgs were close to the same and the weight of the Ram was much more than the Jeep. If I was just using my Ram around town the 3.6L would be fine, but on the highway in the Ram I would be afraid it would have to wring itself out to keep the speed up.

[@Jay-bw3fl]

The v6 in the wrangler is detuned at 285hp and 260 torque. The v6 in the ram has 305 horsepower and 296 torque. That little bit makes up for the weight difference especially with a 3.55 rear end ratio. Either way the hemi is more fun but the v6 in the ram isn’t quite the dog it is in the wrangler. I’ve had all 3

I do not look forward to the changes Ram is making in their trucks. I have no desire for a Electric Truck besides the mining that is happening around the world needed to make these big lithium battery banks for these vehicles is more damaging to the earth and people who live around these mines. I am going to miss the Hemi. Maybe the Cummins Hydrogen will be nice when they get the infrastructure in place.

Is the price the only reason to get the gas V6? The gas mileage is similar to the Hemi. Same with Ford’s eco boost. Hemi is more reliable than having turbos.

[@jdp3867]

Traded my 3.6 for a 5.7. The 3.6 gets 3 mpg better than the hemi. That's about 65 more miles per tank which adds up. I like the hemi but the 3.6 is a great combination of power and efficiency.

I had an Ecodiesel, you can't get anyone to work on it, nobody wants one traded into their dealership, so you are stuck with a piece of junk!

@@georgehernandez1502 the V6 gets 3mpg more. The 3.6 gets better milage no matter how you drive. You can give the 3.6 some throttle and it still seems to get good economy. The Hemi CAN get decent mpg and I am getting 18.5 mpg currently. But you have to keep your foot out of the Hemi (which is hard to do😁) Also, you have to manipulate the throttle to keep the Hemi's MDS on where it runs on 4 cylinders to maximize the 8 cyl mpg. This is sort of annoying to me as I would rather just drive the truck without thinking about it. My hemi is non etorque 2019. My 3.6 was a 2014. Both were 3.21 gears.

I have a 2022 Laramie 5.7 etorque. And although I would never opt for the V6, the EPA fuel-economy estimates are complete BS. I just did a 700 mile highway trip basically hypermiling and I was only able to get 16.7 MPG. In the city it sits anywhere between 10 and 13 depending on how bad the traffic was and how much AC I use. I plan on ordering a bed cover because I hear that helps with fuel economy. We'll see what that does.

Back in August '23 I purchased a new (2023) RAM 1500 crew cab Bighorn with the etorque/5.7 Hemi 8 spd auto. My mileage experience is different than yours. My first fillup yielded 19 mpg combined (biased towards highway) and the second was 18.5 mpg with around the same bias. The onboard computer said it was averaging about 1 mpg more than actual (measured with actual fuel consumption at the gas pump). Strict highway (not hypermiling) yielded 22 mpg.

I bought a 2022 Laramie with the 5.7 e-torque and a buddy brought a 2022 Longhorn with the eco-diesel. He does get significantly better fuel mileage than my gas hemi. But Ben is correct, factor the extra cost of the diesel at purchase and extra cost at the pump, it could take at least 3 years for the eco-diesel to become cheaper per mile. I will acknowledge the diesel engine should likely last longer all things equal. I wanted one of the rapidly vanishing V-8's, and my Buddy prefers diesels due to his business. Really not a clear-cut winner between the two.

Hands down Hemi. Sound love it Plus I don’t buy a truck to be fuel efficient lol I will say this my 23’ Ram Rebel with 5.7 Hemi E-Torque with 3.92 axle Isn’t great on mileage as the 3.21 or 3.24 On average it’s 17.5 MPG with 3.21 And 12.1 having 700 miles on my Rebel with the 3.92 Now yes I’m sure that’s due to various reasons. Whether driving habits, dealing with cold with and having the remote start, and driving city or highway, and also now having 33 inch tires instead of the normal street tires. But both MPG I’ve listed are my winter MPGs I have a few routes I take to work and one is city with highway near tail end. And the other is city to country roads to a few miles city. Total distance either route is around 16 miles. I can’t report numbers for summer time at this time cause obviously I just got it 700 miles ago.

"Wish we could get these diesel engines in a midsize" *I6 duramax in the Colorado and canyon* - am I am I a joke to you?

[@Dustin-kb8bq]

Id get the Hemi but I wont because of the tik issue

[@haroldbirge6881]

Hands down 🍀5.7 ✌️

[@adamstrider9822]

Definitely not the eco 😂

[@adogg619]

I agree the EcoDiesel and the Hemi are the best choices. Diesel for best fuel economy and Hemi for best power and speed. Don’t even bother with the gas 3.6, it doesn’t shine well in neither category.

[@miguelvega7769]

So yall choose fun over REALIIBITY

[@benradey379]

It shines in reliability and fuel economy, although Ben says the 5.7 and 3.6 are basically the same the 3.6 will be better on fuel. The 3.6 is one thousand times more reliable than the 3.0l diesel, it’s funny to say but the 3.6 may also outlive the 5.7 in most cases.

[@dubba07]

The 6.2 Hemi.

Hemi sucks with MDS in it. I have purchased a new engine for my truck with mds Delete in it.

Sorry but the narrator needs to take a class on how to talk on camera. SLOW...slow slow slow slow....down speech rate. You are using a answer machine voice which is to get as much packed in as possible before the beep.

HEMI

[@scobo4743]

3.6 is a car engine. Truck engines should have their torque number greater than the hp number.

[@irishmickeybambrick7222]

Stay away from that Eco Deisel at all costs. Terrible

[@TheMike089367]

had a 2ng gen and currently a 3rd gen. amazing engine, no issues so far. owned for several years

[@willy-theq-quintana923]

Agree, I've been following the ED's for months now and have gotten tons of feedback. I will say the 1st and 2nd Gens are definitely pretty bad and clicking time bomb for engine failure due to the EGR system... However the 3rd gens have received very positive feedback includng some already into the 6 figure mileage range. If you maintain 3rd Gen, seems to be a long laster for sure. Keep in mind the 3rd gen was 80%+ redesigned from the ground up, but unfortunately sales suffered from all the negativity and engine failures of the 1st and 2nd Gens. I find most ppl that speak against the newer ecodiesel in the end have no idea what their talking about and are forum trollers.
