I will be holding on to my 2022 5.7 hemi love the power response and just the sheer sound of that rumbling v8 makes me a happy man
I have a 2019 Hemi, and am going to hold onto it for as long as I can. Nothing beats a V8.
Amen brother
Same here. I got a 23 and I'm going to put a nice exaust on it and enjoy it as long as I can.
Nothing beats a V8 - except for all these turbo charged engines (hurricane, ecoboost, etc) that beat it all day long in every category. I say that as a 5.7 hemi owner.
@Lq32332 Yeah except for reliability and durability, also if the 3.5L EcoBoost V6 is so good then why did Ford use the 6.8L and 7.3L Godzilla V8s in the Super Duty as base gas engines and not the 3.5L EcoBoost V6?
@@CJColvin Ah yes the 5.7 Hemi with its reliable exhaust manifolds and lifters. I’m not against a V8 (my daily is a Ram 5.7) but I’m not sure a V8 from 2009 with consistent weaknesses is going to perform better than a clean sheet inline 6 with modern technology.
truck prices are insane, these trucks need to be 40 grand max, if they want to sell numbers
I have a 2014 Hemi Longhorn and I'm keeping it. It's smooth and unbelievably fast!. GREAT VEHICLE!!
A 400 HP naturally aspirated HEMI should’ve been an option on 2025 models.
Hemi is being discontinued unfortunately
Emissions

@@Kliffy77 Yes, we need more taxes, lol. 😂
It'll come back
Muffler deleted 24 ram hemi. It’s glorious
Muffler deletes.... Another name for small penis complex
I am noyt sure if anyone noticed, but the color for the mileage was green in the new Hurricane and white in the Hemi. Psychological impact to being greener.
scew their green my srt8 2009 challenger gets 25 mpg on the highway.
@@MultiSmurf67 lololololols, your 2009 SRT8 challenger might be a rebadge 6 cylinder.
I know that the 6 has more power, but I'm sticking with my V8 till the wheels fall off.
Nothing beat's a turbo till it breaks down, I bet these new engines will break way more then the Hemi.
That's my concern like u on a family trip away from home and 1 turbo or both go out and than u just have a 3 liter v6 with like 90hp lmao. But I guess u could just call a tow truck.
Don't forget the infamous hemi tick tick tick
Facts 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
As long as you keep the oil changed and coolant flushed like we are supposed to the turbo will last a long time.
@@jaredbaker5510replaced a few lifters and cams on my 2012 1500 and my 2017 2500 with the 6.4
I want to see the Hurricane in the Grand Cherokee, Gladiator and Wrangler! The should have carried over the Hemi for a few more years. I don’t see adding the Hurricane to the Ram is going to increase sales it may actually do the opposite as the Ram guys love the Hemi and will not be wanting to be the first on the new turbo charged engine.
Grand Cherokee most unreliable car out there
@@ScottS-gc3wknot true
Absolutely! Since the 392 is just insane the Jeep has always be longing for a motor to keep up with the bigger tires and gearing. An inline is great, a twin turbo inline is perfect!
I own a 2016 ram and have owned multiple turbo cars also, my ram took an L by eating up its cam, did everything to prevent it, the hemi is old it’s design is old school, it’s time to let it retire, I would love to buy an inline 6 twin turbo engine in the body of a Ram.
You right 👍🏾
I knew i saw the 2025 test truck rolling down I20 with a camper. Like the front end, but let's just watch the sales hit the floor as they get rid of the hemi.
I like this footage a whole lot better than the original. This really makes us feel like we are with you and I like that! Thank you Matt for everything you do!
Hemi = 14.5 mpg & Hurricane = 13.2 mpg . Certainty not what i expected in a 6 cyl vs a V8 🤔
6 cylinder needs to work harder.
Remember both vehicles are brand new and are not broken in yet. Hurricane when broken in will get better fuel economy than a Hemi
Indeed. Both vehicles need ro be driven more and the test should include more mileage.
@@brandonruhl1639I hope you’re right, considering getting the hurricane.
@@cali8059 I’m right, as even the new Jeep compass wasn’t getting that good of mpg on the reviews but mine since break in is getting way better mpg then what they got
I drove a SST yesterday at Don Davis Chrysler Dodge Ram Jeep. I am highly impressed by the engine. I own a 2021 Ram 1500 5.7 hemi etorque. The dual turbos on the straight six has no noticeable turbo lag which confused as I gave it the beans. The truck only had 30 miles when I test drove it. It has start stop as well which is so smooth that you can't tell the engine is off. The smoothness of rhe straight six is very impressive. I am keeping my hemi and purchasing a Lonestar in 2 years by that tyme all the kinks should be worked out. I asked the mechanics at the dealership about the platform and they said so no real issues. The issues were more along the line of quality control at the factory
Don't be impressed by start-stop, cylinder deactivation, or ecotec. All that shit means death to a motor. I get it, all that to get a little bit more gas mileage, well if you have to switch up motors or vehicles because the engine died early because of that crap you didn't save a cent
I’ll keep my 2020 4X4 crewcab Ram with the Hemi NON etorque and 3:92 rear axle. It just turned 36,000 miles and it’s almost paid off! I hate a stop/start feature on a truck.
New is nice but title in hand is Great! And the old adage of never buy anything the first year is an understatement! Love my Ram and I’m keeping it!
At 36,000 miles in 5 years, tells me you don't use your truck at all. I own a 2022 ram 3500 which is paid for and I have 150,000 miles on it. I do use my truck as it was intended, a work horse.
@@bajaboy27 ya well just over 4 years and we’re retired. I use it hauling wood, pavers and anything else I need and if the wood I need is too long I use my trailer. Home projects mostly. Rebuilt my kitchen and hauled all the cabinets. Glad you get use out of your truck. And I’m glad mine has low miles and has done everything I need given the prices of new trucks today. I’m happy with it.
@@TheNewenglandboys yes most definitely trucks are expensive. I bought mine cash $62K in 2021, my brother in law bought one just like mine same color and trim(except his is the HO and it's not 4x4)in 2023 financed total price was $103K with $1,400 monthly payments 😧 and he doesn't even uses it for work.
@@bajaboy27 That just seems crazy! When I bought mine I got a zero interest rate which meant keep my money earning interest.
@@TheNewenglandboys There's no such thing as zero interest. Interest it's a big part of their profit. Reason why they also don't like when people buy vehicles cash, and don't get me started on trade ins and or down payment.
TRX vs High Output. 🙏🙏🙏
It’s hard not hearing that Hemi Rumble note anymore. Hate seeing it go away.
Don't buy the new shit and they'll bring it back pretty quick
I was waiting for this comparison good job Ben 👍🏻 . I think a longer trip is what’s really needed to get more accurate mpg you need to drive the new engine a little more to get used to it usually you tend to hit the accelerator a little harder after coming from a v8 at least I noticed that with my truck.
That new headlight design is slick!!!
At 10:22 that damn Subaru was about to turn into the stopped cars on the opposite lane.🤣🤣
They were just trying not to scrape when they pulled out
@@Drg24800 hell of a way to avoid it
typical Subaru drivers :D
Hi, Ben Hardy this is Jermey McGuire. My grandpa had a 2005 Ran 1500 quad cab with a 5.7 liter Hemi magnum V8 SLT.
I enjoyed riding in my grandpa’s Hemi, my grandpa is no longer with us anymore.”
My grandpa and I used to go get breakfast together every morning. I made so many memories with my grandpa In his Hemi. The Hemi is more reliable than the hurricane.”
When you started the ram 1500 Hemi it brings me back them memories I had with my grandpa, I miss him to this day
It’s not more reliable just because you’ve got memories. Inline 6s have always been the best engine due to being perfectly balanced. If ram went at this the right way that inline will be unstoppable
Awesome memories, Jermey... cherish them, my friend.
👍🏾
The memories are what counts sorry to hear about your grandfather 🙏🏾
Can't wait until your review of the TRX vs the new RHO when they release it.
Thanks for the review and it was nice to see what the night edition looks like on the 2025. I really like the Hurricane !, Thanks Ben
I think the new cam set up is great and keep up with the great content
I have a 2016 1500 and my wife has a 2023 wagoneer with the 3 liter. What I have noticed is my truck tends to over-estimate the mpg by 1 and my wife’s wagoneer under-estimates by 2-3mpg. If the trucks are the same as the wagoneer my guess is there is a 1-2 mpg difference in favor of the 3 liter. Reliability and sound aside that hurricane beats the hemi in performance and MPG.
Simple uncomplicated V8 anyday over the new complex highly stressed tiny 6.
Inline 6 is inherently less complex. Low stressed as it was designed from the ground up for boost. Would you call the Cummins high stressed?
I say this as a 5.7 hemi owner. People obsess over cylinder count like it’s your pp length or something.
@@Lq32332 Inline six by itself maybe but add turbos and it gets very complex.
@@Lq32332 This tiny 6 is WAY more complex than the V8 its replacing, and its no where near as heavily built as the Cummins 6. Do some research.
@@gabrielback5615 where did I say the Hurricane would be as built as the Cummins? The Hurricane is 3.0 L vs 6.7 L… My point was the inline 6 design is very stout and uncomplicated. The Hemi it is replacing has many known reliability issues like lifters and exhaust manifolds. FYI any V configuration is inherently more complicated than an inline one.
@@Lq32332the hurricane is significantly more complex than the Hemi. It is a DOHC setup first of all. It has tons of timing components(chains, tensioners, camshaft phasers and electronics). The turbos are integrated into the cylinder head. So when that turbo fails it’ll be super expensive. Direct injection is another problem. These engines have carbon deposit problems. Most manufacturers implement a dual system with port injection washing away the deposits. Dodge did not do this. Finally, PLASTIC! This engine is built with waaaaay too many plastic components. I will enjoy hearing about all the issues with them.😂
They should put the low and high output hurricane in the wranglers! Like yesterday. And instead of getting rid of the hemi they should have improved its power with a supercharger
Id say keep using the gimbal. Keeps the camera a bit more steady as you're panning around outside the vehicle.
Luxury feel is probably the way lighter engine weight.
Old taillights I think is piece of art best once found on a pickup truck.
They are nice, that said mine have faded to pink after 5 years. Very expensive to replace.
I get the seems luxurious comment.Sometimes quiet is good.There is just something about the mechanical feel of the V-8 though.Im probably good with either.Just take some getting use too I guess.Looking forward to the high output review.New camera legit.Thanks for pointing out the different nuances etc.
The Hurricane is NOT better. They could’ve made a V8 with the same HP and torque. Hurricane was developed directly by Stellantis and they are not known for reliability. The Hemi and Hellcat were developed by Chrysler rather than Stellantis and they are simplistic and proven.
It's a damn shame that the mpg isn't any better than the hemi was!!!🤯
Eco or boost Lee with these turbo engines...
@@RAM-KINGOFTRUCKS I prefer Hemi...What do you think???
@@leedanielson7452 I agree totally...give me that Hemi any day over a boosted 6.
@@leedanielson7452Hemi 😊
@@jackhammer2671 Yup!👍
As with the FTL crew, putting both turbos to work will see lower mpg. The more air slamming into the engine equals significantly more fuel added to the mix. 2017 3.5L EB f150 owner.
Always like watchin your vids ... specially since it's somethin new every day.
Ty for sharing,
overall the new motor is kool, I like the torque and how smooth it is ( for a turbo).
the con is that it requires 91 oct. and the results it gives don't surpass the hemi by much ...
would have made more sense to add low end torque, loose the e-torque + auto start / stop n just offered the hemi for $2k hell even at $4k more.
I'm sure if stocked evenly on lot most would jump into Hemi vs this new motor ...
btw, just something to think about I always look at the rpm range these motors make the hp / torque, maybe if able try adding it into vids, cause this helps a ton
@piotrk1047.......The base 3.0 HURRICANE does NOT require 91 OCTANE fuel, only the HO SST 3.0
Insane cars Ben !! ❤❤
Thank you, Ben. Good video. I want the hemi.
My new Ram has more HP that my Scat Pack think about that
always had ford trucks in my family and recently at 19 got a 2017 ram 5.7 hemi with 50k miles Best decision ever
I have a 2017 ram 1500 5.7 HEMI that has 248,000 mi on it with zero mechanical issues. I maintain it as anyone should. So I stand with the HEMI
Big fan of twin turbo straight six!! Even in the 2500/3500 trucks a turbo six is the way to go
Dope comparison 👍🏾👍🏾
I was a bit skeptical about the Hurricane but after almost six months…I am impressed. Major con for the Hurricane is not having a physical dipstick to check oil but once you get past that….great engine…. I have a Charger for my HEMI fix but Hurricane is definitely a decent engine and plenty of power even on an almost 8000 lb vehicle!
Thanks Ben!
My experience with Ram Hemi rental trucks is that the power is very good and fuel economy was excellent for a V8 full size pickup truck. Averaged 27 with hunting gear in the mountains of Colorado. I know, I couldn't believe it either. That's what the computer said - maybe it lied. Didn't hand calculate it. This was the 4.6l ( I think) smaller Hemi.
Hemi in my Challenger and that's where I'll stay.
The difference in the rear tail lights is because the older one has rear cross traffic alert. The tail lights actually has the traffic sensors built in.
The mountains in der background are very beautiful.
2019 Ram Hemi owner and nothing makes me feel like I'll upgrade over what I have now. I'll be staying team hemi until the end!!!
I have a ‘21 hemi with etorque I bought a few months ago, and have been driving BMW inline 6 TT’s for years (N54 & N55) in several different models. I agree that the hemi is smooth and linear and the power is there, but it doesn’t like to be rushed. The abundance of low-end turbo torque in the BMW engines makes them more playful. Really curious to test drive a Hurricane Ram, as the hemi and the N55 really add to the different driving experience of my 1500 vs. my 740i, which I value a lot.
In regards to fuel economy, the more you spin up the turbos the more your fuel economy suffers. If you drive sedately and leverage the torque wave at low revs, you can take advantage of the smaller displacement. I notice that the Hemi stays down at the same rev levels when I drive it sedately, but you still can’t escape the displacement.
One other comment-if this Hurricane turns out to be a solid engine, it’s easy to add 40% power with a simple tune and some bolt-ons. Just look at the N54/55 fanboys and coal rollers for that. 😉
It's kind of a waste of time trying to explain this concept to people such as yourself. Some of us want vehicles that are reliable and that just work. I would dare to say most of the population are like that. You obviously have a little bit of fuck around money which means you can afford the cost of repairs. Lets not sit there and act like your BMW is anything relating to reliable, you know it's not I know it's not let's just not do this bullshit where you pretend. Pickup trucks need to be reliable. Turbos are the antithesis to that. You can easily make a hemi 100% more powerful than what it is in stock form. Pickups are tools. They may have become luxury monstrosities. But at their heart they are tools. And I just need my tool to work.
Tbh im interested in seeing how these hurricanes last since its built off an inline 6. Inline 6 engines have been around for a very, very long time. For a reason.
Im not really into modern rams appearance, but inline 6 has definitely gotten my attention.
If it was just an inline 6 I would agree with you. However it is a dual turbo..... Let me correct that it is an Italian dual turbo setup. Guaranteed to fail. Like all Italian car products it is not made for anything close to reliability.
@@seanbutler2291 everything is guaranteed to fail at some point dude. You are not smart enough for this comment section kiddo. You need a hobby, you are in every single thread whining like a girl.
These turbo engines are not the same as putting turbos in an old beater, as i previously explained to you. They last as long as the engine, because they were actually engineered with the engine rather than being put on by a hobbyist.
From what I've been hearing, it's better than the 5.7, but I'll never know cause I'm keeping my 15 ram forever😊
I like the extra torque of the hurricane, but time will tell if the maintenance of the turbo becomes an issue.
Wonder if it will another cam and lifter issues with the hurricane like the hemi problems or will it just be more complex problems with turbochargers and intercoolers or maybe both
Hemi have a big camshaft lubrification design flaw. So bye bye around 200k km😢
@@manuelkorivu3966yeah I'll say this over and over again if you're stupid and idle it for hours at a time then yes.
That issue only presents itself in the hemis if you consistently idle it. It needs enough pressure for the oil to reach the heads. I'm not talking about idling at a stoplight I'm talking about people that get to a job and will keep the engine running for over an hour because they're too lazy to wait 20 seconds for the AC to get the truck cold again.
Still have my 2004 Ram 1500. Also have a 2014 F150 with the eco boost. The pain is when one or both turbos goes bad to the pocket book😂 The turbos cost almost as much to replace the engine. So check your warranty if you buy the hurricane on the turbos. The Hemi is also much easier to work on.
What does the V6 engine look like and is the V6 any good and underpower?
Ben it's hard to beat a Hemi, but we shall see.. I think it's gonna be interesting to compare...👍👏🏻
Ur up early as usual & Jeez that beard! lol
Is payload a standardized measurement? If not, who is to say that a certain payload is causing too much stress on the engine and other components?
One advantage inline has over V8 and even V6 is working space due to the cylineders being lined down the center instead half on one side half the other
Any chance of a longer term road test on the Hurricane ? Or, a longer comparison between the Hemi and Hurricane - the HO Hurricane would be good !
More reviews coming
Keep the new cam set up. It looks much clearer.
Looking forward to driving one of these. I don't really get the sound thing, I mean most people let thier Hemi's stock and I can't even tell mines running at idle they are so quiet.
Mechanic at muffler shop told me 60 percent of rams come through and do a muffler delete I definitely did. I stay testing hellcats and 392s😅😂
Christ almighty what are you in California??? Pretty much all hemis are not left stock at the exhaust. Crawl out from under your rock. Try giving it some beans or let someone else do so while you listen.
And i have a 5speed auto in mine with the 4x4 shifter on floor and have it tuned and it will spin tires and get around 20 on hwy
While I'll confess that I've never been very taken with Ram, I do think the interior of the new model is great and the quieter engine is fine for me (loud engines just don't appeal to me in general).
I am amazed that the Big 3 sells their trucks without a factory sprayed bedliner. Truck prices are insane,yet that is considered an upgrade. I have seen Ford Raptors without a bedliner. I cannot image any buyer that would not want the spray in liner.
If a person is not going haul anything that would damage the bed why waste the money?
How about not having the rear wheel well liners? Those should be standard, not an option
I think the best course of action is to buy another brand to be honest. I'm going to swap over to Ford.
You'll love the EcoBoost or Powerboost.
5.0 Coyote.
I think there is also something different with the screens, in the hemi it looked normal, is the hurricane it looked like it had a red overlay not sure if it was the camera or some difference in colors from the screens.
A straight 6 has always been a solid choice for a light duty truck. The concern I would have is on durability. I have read articles and see others discuss that they have maxed capability (especially the HO version) in the Hurricane as opposed to the Hemi. Could result in reduced engine life, especially if towing. And speaking about towing, MPG is more negatively impacted in a turbo vs a naturally aspirated engine. Got a couple of buddies with the ford twin turbo F150. Great around town, but boy does it take a hit when towing (especially something like a travel trailer). Worse millage than their old V8s.
How does the new hurricane achieve start stop? Two batteries? Where are they? How does the new drive mode software work? What does it do to the truck?
What does any of that matter you delete that shit, none of that is good for the engine I don't care what engine it is that start stop crap is guaranteed to wear out your engine faster
@@seanbutler2291 it matters where they put that second battery. In the gladiator it’s difficult to get to and fails within a few years. Vehicle won’t run without it.
Be interested in a Towing Test between the 2 ‘
There has been a huge misconception between N/A v8s vs turbo 6s . 1: Old school people tend to think the V8 produces more torque at lower rpm and that’s just not true. 2: they tend to think there’s a lot of turbo lag and that not true for modern turbo engines. 3: turbo engines don’t last and that’s just not true as they are actually built to handle the extra stress . I can’t assess to the rams but can the 5.0 Ford vs Ecoboost . The 5.0 has the noticeable v8 sound and isn’t slow by any means but the 3.5 ecoboost is faster, it builds more torque at lower rpm, not just on the spec sheet either. When accelerating with the 5.0 you’ll find you have to get it the downshift to bring the rpm’s up to make power whereas the ecoboost will likely hold the gear when you fell the boost come in . I found myself only needing part throttle to accelerate under boost when I’d have to give it more throttle to get the 5.0s transmission to downshift , it has power but it’s not as low in the rpm
A 5.0 with a 373 will take out any 3.5 with a more conservatives rear gear ratios,
Equal gears I cant say for sure...
I could be going back to Ford if I bail out of my 06 Ram 2500..
Im possibly to old school to relate the EcoBoost or the new Hurricane..
But I did test drive a ecobost with a 355 and the 5.0 with a 3.73 and the 8 cylinder won me over
I’m surprised they don’t call it a Ram f150😂 I wonder how long till they start making aluminum body panels? Ram needed to take note that Ford has the turbo 6s but they still offer the V8. Why wouldn’t Ram offer the Hemi for less $?
Same reason they dont call the tundra a T150
Why did ram blank out the top left and right screen on the new ram?
I dont like Teslas either but you have to give em credit. If you look closely you can tell the car stopped the driver from cutting you off.
I see youre tapping into your inner viking
I've always been a fan of the Hemi v8, but I'm certainly not opposed to the Hurricane if I stick w Ram, come time to upgrade. I do get a simple pleasure out of hearing the v8 fire up w the remote start while walking towards my truck lol. I'd prefer waiting a yr or 2 to let them work out any issues w the Hurricane as well.
I'm waiting to see towing longevity of this six. If you use your truck as a car then I don't think it'll matter. But I work mine and the Ford turbo trucks haven't lasted. I have one 2005 Ram hemi with 450000 and we still work it. Thats worth paying for.
Love my gen 5 and was anti the i6 but after talking to my ram mechanic, he traded his v8 in on a new one and loves it. He said waaay easier to work on, i6 has been around a while, loves the performance, and they're reliable.
Idk....im driving mine until it blows up, then I'll either drop a i6 in or trx my limited, guess ill cross that road when i get there.
It hasn't even been out for a year and he says it's reliable...... How the fuck would he know. The problem is people like you think reliable is getting to 100,000 MI. Where I come from if it can't do two or three hundre plus thousand miles it's a fucking turd.
Also how would he know if it's easier to work on unless it's already having fucking problems that is not a good sign.
Pretty much everything about your comment does not put me at ease it actually makes me hate that engine even more. Like red flag red flag red flag red flag
That start up on the new v6....woof
I6*
Can you get a turbo charged hemi engine in a 1500 truck ?
That would be dream engine.
As a Mopar owner, Stellantis has definitely made a huge mistake by ending the Hemi engine option. I own 4 vehicles with Hemi's and that is the number 1 reason for buying them. Now that they have cancelled the Hemi, I will never buy another Stellantis product. No one is going to pull up next to you and ask, Does that thing have a Hurricane in it?
@nealstaugler4086........Too bad the EPA caused the HEMI to go away, as the HEMI could not meet the forthcoming requirements with out MAJOR MAJOR changes and HUGE costs!!
Make no mistake. Eliminating the ICE option is their ultimate goal, and then forcing the end of private vehicle ownership. Makes me feel very good to hear my HEMI's roar and spew that carbon next to an EV.
I liked the Hemi but it's time to move on. I had two hemis and I can't wait wait to get one of these.
Ok..Lets see about Performance Program on the Hurricane and then see what the capability will be..Definately turn off A button for Start/ Stop feature..Dont compare this to 5.0 or Ecoboost V6 Ford trucks..Ecoboost V6 weak for full size trucks.$$$ without warranty..5.0 better choice..Just for comparison..
I like those new headlights, but the old tail lights and lack of wheel flares looks better to me.
I'm going to drive my 2016 big horn until the wheels come off because I don't want a turbo engine. Repairs are going to be much higher on the hurricane and that's coming straight from a dealership service guy.
Got me a 2020 hemi and 2002 4.7 magnum gonna hold on to the. V8s until I can't no more
The outside looks better on the 5th gen but the led lights are a big plus. Really wish the new bighorn got the silver/metal look gear shift. Hate the ram lettering instead of the symbol though. And the the wheels on the new one are way better
Why not put the mild hybrid system on the hurricane?
Hemi All The Way, I have 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 With 5.7l Hemi and I love it Has Hooker Exhaust And Man That Thing Has The Best Rumbling Growl Ive Ever Heard, I love it
63k for a BIG HORN YIKES!
I have a 2023 Ram Rebel E Torque 3.92 axle ratio, that stickered for 69.9k that I had built from Factory in 2022 like the very end of it. It has a lot more features then both these trucks.....to pay 63k for a BIG HORN is outrageous! Just to think not that long ago they stickered for a lot less.....just holy smokes!
Interesting. So the net answer is exactly whether this is a good thing or not remains to be seen.
Personally, I prefer a non-turbo engine for easier maintenance and repairs.
Ben,when you get a look at a Laramie…see if they actually got rid of the headlight accent strips on top and bottom of the headlights.
That exactly what I was wondering and I've seen videos and from trades man to larmie the literally have the same bull crap low beam daytime rubbing bulbs. No more led running strips of your not rich 😭
@@alexanderabboud4691 yes, they have been issues with the led strips going out as the trucks age, it will be a cost savings for owners.
I cut my mufflers off gotta love that hemi sound
How can it be any better at emissions? It's not CO2 according to the sticker. What emissions specifically are being reduced?
It accelerates better empty, what about under load? Or while towing? As it is it's already bad on fuel economy. And whats the price? $50k+
At that price I would much rather get a tradesman diesel 3500 which would get me a much better fuel economy.
Bummed they didn’t go full digital gauges yet. Not a deal breaker. But would have been nice
I read that the I6 needs premium to get to its published hp/tq numbers. As I recall, most dealerships have mid grade on their lots. Could we assume both Big Horns were drinking mid grade? In that case, the I6 in this test may be down a couple ponies from 420.
The I6 HO requires premium fuel where as the I6 SO requires 89 octane
@@deckape7536 thanks for the clarification. That certainly makes for a stronger case for the SO when comparing to the Hemi.
I have no problems with the turbo motors and they take mods & tunes better. I have a 2020 EcoDiesel Longhorn & a 2121 Hemi Limited and love them both. I will keep the EcoD & Hemi as long as I can. But not going to snub my nose at the new Inline 6 turbo's. But If I got the new motor, I would only want the higher end motor only.
I don't understand if you're burning gas at the same rate how you're putting out significantly less emissions.
But did both the Hemi and Hurricane trucks have the same axle ratio??
The new hurricane doesn’t have any oil dipstick
Really?
Yupp. Oil level sensor gives level on dash.
@@WBOS72Great, another sensor to depend on. ✌️
When I get the hurricane I’m going to race every v8 truck and make them trade that gas guzzler in for a ford escort
