RAM RHO: A Game-Changer in the Truck Market

  • Welcome to a first look at the new Ram RHO - Ram's latest powerhouse set to take on the entire truck market, specifically targeting the Ford Raptor.
    In this video, we dive deep into what makes the Ram RHO stand out:
    ✅ This is NOT a replacement for the TRX - a TRX replacement has been teased, but we'll cover that as more is revealed.
    ✅ It's powered by the high-output version of the new twin-turbo Hurricane inline-6.
    ✅ And it makes more power and costs nearly $10,000 less than the current Ford F-150 Raptor!
    Despite the loss of the Hemi V8, the Ram RHO, with its starting price of $71,990, delivers an impressive 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft of torque. It outperforms the Raptor in both power and price, and its advanced Bilstein Black Hawk e2 adaptive suspension ensures superior off-road capability and on-road comfort.
    Join us as we explore the RHO's drivetrain, interior, safety features, and more. We'll also compare it to other top contenders like the Ford Raptor, Chevrolet Silverado ZR2, and Toyota Tundra TRD Pro.

    My new F150 Raptor doesn’t have Blue Cruise but has factory hands free driving and it works awesome. Blue Cruise is available in regular F150’s but isn’t available in the Raptor. The Raptors auto lane centering with adaptive cruise combo does a perfect job hands free on virtually any road but will shut off if you ignore the hand prompts. I have Teslas and BMW’s with hands free Traffic Jamb Assist Pro and Autopilot and the Raptor is just as good. The new Raptor rides like a Cadillac and has all the power needed and sounds awesome in Raptor Baja exhaust mode but can suck some fuel. I might have considered the Ram RHO because of pricing but in the end the RHO just isn’t a Raptor. The Raptor Ford Performance HO V6 has plenty of power and is actually more powerful than my V8 F150 but as I said is very thirsty but if you spend close to $100k on a truck the fuel economy is secondary

    I wouldn’t be too worried if I were Ford 😅. TRX started around this price when it first came out and look how much it is now. Ram will underprice this truck to take market share but they’ll increase the price the years after to recoup the losses.
    There are at least 4 Ram TRX in my area, brand new, that have been sitting on the lot for about 2 months now. Used TRX prices are crashing like crazy. Meanwhile, every Ford Raptor R is going out the door with big markups…I think we can get the big picture here.

  • @ChasingDifferentAdventures

    Makes sense... though, StellAntis is eliminating V8's and even though, they have more horsepower than a regular Double Trouble Turbos V6 Raptor... in Los Angeles California Dealership there were more Raptor R available than V6 Variant... 90% were V8's
    It isn't because they were more expensive. It's because they know the 5.0 or the 5.2 ( Raptor R) are more reliable.
    I have footage of this a full lot and there were some shopper's for a 5.0 I would have bought a 5.0 Roush F150 if it had a e erd Pedal 6 Speed Manual Transmission.
    I had taken my 2022 Roush Mustang for it Service. Made the video... what I am trying to say is it's the end of Dodge and RAM.
    I lived with Turbo Ecoboost Mustang for 7.5 years and it was boring to drive an Automatic Paddle Shifters Transmission
    Though, was costly to have 2 engines replaced before 60k miles. The 1st time they had it for 2 months, and when I went to pick her up they said it'll be $2,890 I said wait what I thought the Warranty paid for everything. Only 1st month of the rental. The 2nd time they said Ford will not pay for either of the 2 months on Rental. So I bought the only White V8 Mustang with the 3rd Pedal
    6 Speed Manual Transmission. In all of California.
    No one knows Turbos get to 1,875° Fahrenheit or 1,020° Celcius . They are mounted next to the engine block so it will fail.. European know this and it's why they apply It to their vehicles. I wouldn't buy anything thing with Turbos. Mopar techs will promote it so they can be busy working on these Warranty pieces of Junk.
    Ecoboost (Ford) EcoTech ( GM) are EcoTragic. ..
