And with today's prices, all you have to do is take a second mortage on your house! I bought a Ram 1500 (granted $13K off MSRP because of the car and housing market crash) in 2009, but I remember it being a way smaller portion of my salary than it is today. Its like my salary barely changed, but the trucks are twice as expensive.
We need to vote better. Having a war on oil is a for sure way to cause inflation. Now since that wasn't corrected we also have wage inflation. The auto worker unions think mass pay raises is a fix for the workers. So with all the inflation and crazy regulations surrounding manufacturing this is what we get. Yes your vote matters....it didn't so much before Trump, but now it certainly does as at least smart people are figuring out.
Happy to see that Ram didnt bastardize the Limited trim to make room for the Tungsten. Obviously Ram is chasing luxury in a big way, offering 3 luxury trims, and they've been successful at it. I really love they carried the Night package forward as well. This was a worthy update for sure!
You mentioned that "really, none of the competition has that" in reference to the RAM boxes. It's worth pointing out that the Nissan Titan is available with Titan boxes. Unlike, the RAM boxes, the Titan boxes are removable if you need access to the full capacity of the bed. Further, you don't have to deal with corrosion or paint issues with the Titan boxes like you do with the RAM boxes. One mark against the Titan boxes, though, is that they have a wheel-well bulge in the bottom, unlike the RAM boxes which have a flat bottom. Ultimately, the RAM boxes are better for maximum storage capacity while the Titan boxes are better for versatility and durability. Great video as always!
Not true the top 3% will be able to afford it! I am on the lower 50% so I have to settle for under 45000 so that puts me in the midsized trucks now! But buy ram forever
I absolutely love the 2025. I currently own the 2020 model that's loaded up. Would love to get the 2025 version and possibly look into the top dawg Tungsten model.
Hey Paul! So, I haven’t gotten through this video yet but have watched others regarding the options & I have the 21’ Limited with every option and I feel like the newer models are actually a downgrade. Can you list some of your favorite upgrades in the 25’s that do not come in the 20’s and 21’s ? Thanks!
I am so glad that you pointed out that not all of the 2025 Ram 1500s have the ugly oversized "R A M" letters on the tailgate! If one hates that look, the multi-function tailgate option sports the handsome Ram's head logo. HOORAY!!!!!!
I'm glad I just grabbed a '23 Limited Elite. It was marked down $17k. EPA Gas mileage on the HO Hurricane isn't great and will be much worse in the real world. The Hemi was fast enough, 540hp is overkill. Ram should offer the SO Hurricane as standard on the Limited and make the HO optional.
Go cry to mommie that you can’t handle a truck with 540 hp. The rest of us want it as an option at all trims because we use the truck for work. Your reasoning doesn’t make sense it’s already proven the HO gets better gas mileage than the Hemi ever did.
Maybe it's just me, but surprised you didn't highlight Ram has FINALLY introduced a dead pedal into their truck line-up. That's so competitively overdue and wonderful to see.
The online builder for the Laramie doesn't allow you to option in the HO engine. I hope this becomes available by the time I'm ready to trade in my 2019. I will skip the sunroof next time, because it causes the interior to be a beast to keep cool down here in the south, and I rarely even use it.
I would, too, but the RamBox reduces the width of the bed enough that as a work truck it was not worth it to me. I just ordered a Limited Longhorn with the 6'4" bed.
I've own a 2007 Silverado...it doesn't have a best creature comforts but the power train has been exceptional. I have over 200,000 miles on it. I looked at a new Dodge Ram and I like the interiors and I'm open to the new I6 turbo but I can't get over the price for an unproven vehicle. For $60k it will be hard for me not to go with what I know works...Chevy V8.
The last Ram I owned was a 2001 and still shared the Dodge brand. It had the tried and true Dodge 318ci engine and a five speed trans. It was a beautiful flame red short bed Sport Off Road with a factory lift kit. For some strange reason I stupidly traded it in 2010 for a Jeep Wrangler which to this day regret. IMO this was the last generation of the great Dodge trucks. Over the years I owned eight of them. Some Power Wagons and some Rams. Some used and some new but all were basic hard working, dependable, working man's reasonably priced trucks.
That is on my list the options and that Delmonico Red color with the long bed, it just looks way better than a short bed configuration, but what is the sticker price or invoice price on this truck you are reviewing?
Can you get the automatic tailgate up and down in the LIMITED if you don't get the multifunction tailgate? I always forget to raise my tailgate after using it and have to get back out to raise it in my '21 LIMITED...
Boggles my mind how you view blacked out everything as some to desire and something looks good. I'm going down the road I can't even see the model/make/trim when they are all blacked out. The blacked out vehicles coming up behind you look like they are missing all their front pieces except the bumper and headlights until it gets very close. Why like everything hidden/obfuscated?
Is is too much to ask to stand behind the truck to see what the exhaust sounds like? Or to place a GoPro while driving to hear exhaust note on idle, acceleration and driving?
WOW on the price, i have a 2023 1500 classic Warlock quad cab and 6 ft 4 bed, 3.6 with several options, it was almost 53 and i got it for 42,800. It's paid for but at 6000 miles i got rear-ended, 6 grand in damage, no frame damage but rear bumper and tailgate are destroyed, 100% the other drivers fault. The 3.6 is fine with me, it has the tow package though i don't tow but good for resale, i get an honest 16 city and 19-20 highway though usually 19, i would have to think about spending 77 grand on a truck, is that the 540 HP version???
I’m glad they only put the plastic bumper on the tungsten. I was almost sad because they revealed the rest with the metal front bumper. Plus I like how the bumper looks more like the heavy duty truck. I’m sad that there is a v8 but I’m still glad there is a gas truck. Rather have a online 6 instead of a junk ev
Nice discussion. Please reduce the frequent in and out zooming of camera. It’ll b a smoother video and provide the viewer a better picture. 😊 thank you.
$78,000 for a truck? They have to be kidding. Ram has the biggest day supply of all trucks and I’m pretty sure of all vehicles. I’m not a Ford or GM person who hates RAM. I have owned 4 RAM trucks and very happy with them. I even worked for Chrysler for 33 years. When I buy my next truck I won’t buy a stripped down version or pay $78,000 for a truck.
I have a 21 Laramie and I love it but I cant wait for these to hit the dealers so I can test drive the new 25s ...Who knows..... if the numbers look right Ill upgrade.
I keep my vehicles more than 10 years. To spend 90K for a truck and not knowing if the engine will last is my concern. Ram needs to make a 10;100000 warranty for the first year to bring in buyers. I don't trust this 3L engine . Look at Toyota. They didn't test their 3.5L twin turbo and a complete recall because of bearing failure.
Even though I can afford the price, Virginia will steal about three to four thousand every year in property tax just to own it. That and insurance on a $90k truck is also probably outrageous even for a 50 year old guy with good driving history. It's just not worth the cost of ownership for me. I do like it though.
Says the " Honda " ,,,,,,, Japanese car Guy ??? The fact that ppl have been paying WAY over sticker & dropping six figures on trucks for the last 3-4 years shows the ignorance of your statement .
That hood is not new...at all. The sport hood comes with the night package for the last few years. Also, the RamBox eats up a ton of bed space and most people aren't going to utilize it, it'll just collect junk.
Did ram fixed the engine block crack engine blocks? Did they fix the leaky window in the back? Did they fix the clamps breaking off exhaust system within six months they fix Did they fix the truck stalling if they fix the reliability problems they making the truck look better but you need to solve reliability problem one more thing did they did they solve the problem with the cruise control hands off cruise control you didn’t think I know it did you what I own one the 2019 ram Limited pick up truck fully loaded so I know
It’s a I6 (straight/inline 6) but, what’s the problem with 6 cylinders? Some of the best cars/trucks are or were 6 cylinders. They can be just as powerful, fast, and resilient as a V8. For example most Porsche’s, Nissan GTR’s, Buick Grand National, etc. had or have 6 cylinder engines.

I have a 19 Limited and i LOVE it. I'll never have anything but a RAM
@Brian_Eugene_Lee I'm looking forward to how the electric truck will be. It's interesting to me
1500 limited 2024 ✋
2023 Limited and I love it!! I wish I would have gotten the barn door tailgate but oh well.
I got the 22' Laramie Sport in white. Stormtrooper spec
@@mrrogerstown2435 hell yea. I bet that's sweet
Only 1% of buyers can actually afford these. Sad times we are in. In 4 years that long Horn will start at 80k.
To purchase new, but same limited will trade at 50k used and resell at 72k will new limited will then be 92k. Smh. Keep and repair
Not true the top 3% will be able to afford it! I am on the lower 50% so I have to settle for under 45000 so that puts me in the midsized trucks now! But buy ram forever
These go for 20k under msrp every year. So this will be basically loaded for $56k. Not that crazy.
I got a 2020 which is new to me still have the new tech and the hemi. I came from a 2002 ram which I still have just love the ram
It's crazy how it's still a revelation to people that things always get more expensive. So, u mean like always?
It should also have a power adjust steering at that price. Especially in those higher trim levels!
I personally like this trim more than the tungsten I hope the ramcharger carries a similar black interior on the limited version
Thank you for reviewing the Limited trim!!!
N is the titan a good truck would you put it on par what the ram
I absolutely love the 2025. I currently own the 2020 model that's loaded up. Would love to get the 2025 version and possibly look into the top dawg Tungsten model.

Great video of the 2025 Ram 1500 Limited!!!! Great job guys!!!!
Beautiful truck, but I think I’ll stick with my 2019 Limited for now, these new truck prices are ridiculous!!!!
You need to be making $300,000 or more a year to buy something like this.. absolutely crazy
Go out and make more money then and STOP complaining like a little girl 😂✌🏻
Naw, I’ll trade my 2022 in and get 50k for it then get 15k off the 2025 and will be a 15k difference
Lol cope harder
No way in hell will that be 15000 dollar difference how you getting 15k off employees don't get that much

It’s too expensive. If I were to buy I’d wait until discounts. Otherwise beautiful truck
Excellent video guys.
Hey, isn’t this Tim’s truck but in Limited vs. his order of Big Horn.
Maybe it's just me, but surprised you didn't highlight Ram has FINALLY introduced a dead pedal into their truck line-up.
That's so competitively overdue and wonderful to see.
My opinion is, the tv sized infotainment screen is stupid. Everyone is doing it.
I have a question for you how about comparing the new taco to the new frontier in Bose as will mid - grade
And all for the low low price of your first born 💀
The online builder for the Laramie doesn't allow you to option in the HO engine. I hope this becomes available by the time I'm ready to trade in my 2019. I will skip the sunroof next time, because it causes the interior to be a beast to keep cool down here in the south, and I rarely even use it.

Why do you need 540 horse in a pick up
@@davecramer9725 towing obviously you never towed anything you need lots of torque.
4PM Eastern. Very informative. Keep up the good work.
For 78k, they should include the panorama sunroof. Then, I will definitely consider buying it.
Not even a basic sunroof on a limited Trim? That's madness

With the options this one had, I have configured one similar that sits at $88k. The configurator and sticker weren’t provided at time of filming.
Extremely disappointed with Ram for axing the Hemi. I will be going over to GMC when the lease on my ‘22 Laramie is up!

@@843MudMafia.can all be reversed.
Blame the GOVT not Ram. Your GOVT officials can fly non stop on big jets and be chauffeured in big SUVs, but god forbid you own a Hemi!
Can you get the automatic tailgate up and down in the LIMITED if you don't get the multifunction tailgate? I always forget to raise my tailgate after using it and have to get back out to raise it in my '21 LIMITED...
Yes. It is standard on Laramie and up(w/o split opening gate).
Yes
can you get the night vision feature on the ram thats on the jeep grand wagoneer?

There's always a chance but they are probably more likely to expand the 4xe powertrain throughout more of the lineup. Thank you!
Nice truck with a very competitive price!
I'll still drive my Hemi thank you
When (dates) are the 2025 limited and tungsten going to be available? My local dealer said not until July....
Based on what Ram told us, they should already be on sale or on sale eminently. Perhaps there is a delay to clear 2024 inventory?
Nice truck, but I made the mistake of test driving a TRX 😮..

Has shown that’s an $87,000 vehicle
Crazy wild price
Nice truck! But if I buy in this price range I do want to have a V8
looks the same as a 2019
I like this more than the tungsten
Only if that screen was about half the size and they used a traditional shifter instead of a dial. That’s a dealbreaker for me.
I like the dial. It frees up space. I have the 8.4 inch display with real knobs below…
why? I have a ram 2016 and love it.
Just to be fair same thing with Toyota trucks reliability issues
The hemi is the only thing thats kept Dodge/ram etal in business for the last 15 years. Hopefully this is the end for them.
