Hey Kirk one of things I learned about the screen is that is integrated with the main screen and let’s say you want to find a restaurant while your driving your passenger can actually find the restaurant then send it to the main screen navigation system and have you navigate to the restaurant, not sure if that changes your mind but I thought it was cool feature
I ordered the same color with every option except for block heater! For the price you are going to pay for it you might as well LOAD IT OUT!it looks better with the tow/haul mirrors. A luxury vehicle in my opinion suppose to be quiet with all the bells and whistles. My only question is when will RAM start building the TUNGSTEN? It was supposed to been in the first quarter. The only thing I don’t like about the truck they give you a cheap Tonneau cover that come standard with it. Oh yeah, they still have the best tailgate in the game.
If I were in Charge of Stellantis- RAM quality would be applied across the board to Dodge and Chrysler. I'm strongly considering getting a 2025+ 4 door, and would love to see some of this quality carry over.
Very nice looking truck! Tons of technology…….that’s awesome! The question is ….how reliable is all this technology going be and what will it cost to repair when it malfunctions out of warranty ????
@@KirkKreifels yes. They are fixing the problem. Chrysler would just wait until it was out of warranty and ignore you. If you don't know the difference between how Toyota operates and how Chrysler operates, I don't know what to tell you
@@chibbyylol true of the vehicle they have, but it doesn't mean statements cannot be made based on experience of others. Saying this is better than the tundra might be valid if you take this into consideration
Dude, the engine is a ok engine and the transmission isn’t any Fiat garbage. It’s a proper Aisin transmission. This is the most promising and most bang for buck truck out of the Detroit Three brands.
Lot's of haters still crying about no V8 or affordability issues thinking this should be a 28K truck. Based on this review this appears to be a job very well done by RAM.
@@Mshi- I don't doubt it. The folks I'm referring to are those w/ '24 and older RAM V8's. I took one ride in my neighbors Tremor w/ the EcoBoost and was sold on the TT 6.
Thank you for this review. Can't believe they haven't enabled full screen Android auto, that is ridiculous. Would it make you mad that Apple Carplay DOES use the full screen? 🤬. Would like to get a review of the new auto drive stuff on divided highways. And maybe a side by side comparison of the Harmon vs the new Klipsch Reference Premier. Thanks again.
Nowadays they use Aisin transmissions so those are bulletproof. I’d say, it’s better bang for your buck than the Fords and Chevys because those two brands are way too expensive for the package they offer. Ram is at least somewhat in touch with reality when it comes to pricing.
Well the engine/transmission have been a combo for the last 3 years with almost no issues so I assume reliability is built in from the factory. Listen, I’ve had several rams with the 5.7 over the years and I can say there are consistent issues over the life of the last gen rams I have noticed.
If they are able to keep the price in check on the ramcharger it will become a very popular option.Could be a best seller for ram . Another Factor will be if it qualifies for the tax credit.
At this price it better be available with the front bench style seating, reclining rear seats, full size 6'7" bed, larger gas tank and the split tailgate. Please let me know if it will be possible to order it that way. Thank so much for your help.
The front bench seat is likely only available at Lower trims. When I went to shop for a RAM this year, I think only a Warlock I saw had the bench seating up front. When you get to the start of their luxury trims (Rebel and up) you get their center console.
Question is there a lot of heat coming in from the roof being glass? I’m in south Florida considering the sun is brutal down here I’d be worried about leaving it in the sun
So expensive just to get a V6 twine turbocharged is just crazy. In my opinion, they would be better off just putting all their time in make V8s more efficient. Not having a hemi just makes it a baby boys truck😂 I do really like the look and interior 😮
I really like the shift knob! That’s why RAM has the best cab and interior console setup! Think about those people have a clumsy episode and spill a beverage in where your cup holder is less than a foot from your console shifter. That’s going to cause a lot of problems. And we know warranty doesn’t cover that! I have a friend that has a 2024 luxury truck with a column shifter is always in the way when he is trying to touch the screen.
these prices... holy sh*t... wtf is going on
The new Tundra is a huge PoS
Dude, you just sold a thousand RAM Tungstens. Dang. I want one.
I dunno. I’m a Toyota and JDM fanboy, but Mopars have always been nice. It’s a very nice looking truck inside and out.

I ordered one as well when it was first available to be ordered back in march and I still haven’t gotten any updates on when it should be delivered
@@gamingwithbnard I got my Vin, that’s it. It probably be September or October. What color and package you go with?
@@gamingwithbnard you can’t get self parking nor on board power in the tailgate 2025 models says it probably be available on 2026 models
Let’s be honest no 1500 truck on the market can compete with a fully loaded 2025 RAM TUNGSTEN 1500 from factory! I’ll wait😀
Everything is better than a tundra tbh
Yup, especially today when Toyota just announced an engine recall of 21-23 Tundras, about 98,600 of em.
Bro, the Rock called, he wants his fanny pack back.
At least the fix their mistakes and don't push it onto the consumers like the big 3.

@@AMScottyafter getting caught…2021 was 3 and a half years ago at the oldest, and we’re just *now* hearing about it.

If the reliability is top notch then this ram is worth 90K
I would never pay that much for a pickup.
Exactly, unless you’re an executive, or someone who needs to impress. Out the door $ 100K +
The most awarded most reliable pickup RAM-1500 KING OF TRUCKS 👌
Ill be very interested to see the Super Duties to see what they carry over.
You really should come up to the iOS universe Kirk! 👍🏼

around another truck like this or two
Funny how reviewers never seem to consider things like durability. And the number of days this thing is going to be down.
Did you see the tundra engine recall?
They have these vehicles for like a week. Too short to comment on any reliability etc

When are they going to build the Tungsten? You can't even place an order for it today...
So Kirk, when's the video on the tundra recall coming out?
Not interested.
You mean the 1 he posted the same day?

The Mega cab they offer on 2500 make it a limo size
But how's the long term reliability of RAM in general though?
Nowadays they use Aisin transmissions so those are bulletproof. I’d say, it’s better bang for your buck than the Fords and Chevys because those two brands are way too expensive for the package they offer. Ram is at least somewhat in touch with reality when it comes to pricing.
Most likely better than the tundra at this point
Well the engine/transmission have been a combo for the last 3 years with almost no issues so I assume reliability is built in from the factory. Listen, I’ve had several rams with the 5.7 over the years and I can say there are consistent issues over the life of the last gen rams I have noticed.
Looking forward to the RAM REV Tungsten!
This trim is for those who can afford to buy one. If you can't afford this trim, look at a lower trim.
the VIN is available inside for calling RAM Roadside. which you will be doing
If they are able to keep the price in check on the ramcharger it will become a very popular option.Could be a best seller for ram . Another Factor will be if it qualifies for the tax credit.
Damn right to me, its better. I mean its a better looking pickup, and rides so much better. Its a rollsroyce vs a tundra
Luxury trucks technically all have base badges on them, in the highest trim: the F-150 Limited, Silverado LTZ and Sierra Denali
Small thing but too me the taillights look a little basic compared to the previous ones
I will put a film overlay on my truck.
AWESOME VIDEO 😎
I miss the actual Ram I personally like that more than the word Ram
Great looking truck.👍
It’s too the point automakers are trying to solve a problem that I don’t have when it comes to interior options.
At this price it better be available with the front bench style seating, reclining rear seats, full size 6'7" bed, larger gas tank and the split tailgate. Please let me know if it will be possible to order it that way. Thank so much for your help.

When you leave a lot. You will lose thirty thousand dollars right away
I own a Toyota and a DCJ vehicle, I’m taking a Ram HEMI over a new Tundra with turbo 10/10 times.

V6 bro...wtf, its an inline 6 dude not v configuration
@@abzelushness v6 inline 6 really does matter man, not the move😂
Ain’t no vehicle on the planet worth that
You fascinated with the truck and you’re not looking at the truck is not worth 90 K 70 K would be too much 55,000 maybe
No, a Tacoma pro is 67k. So, no.
And The Tungsten is very expensive! I better off buying the classic Warlock since it's much cheaper than the tungsten or a Tundra capstone
90 grand and no power bed step. That's a miss for sure.
Not sure how shiny bits equates to luxury
Is this another made in Mexico truck?
Any thing made in good ole America isn’t much better 😂😂😂 even with union workers. Probably worse… So mexico probably deserve more credit really.
Mexico has been producing many vehicles to include auto parts for GM, Ford, RAM, Toyota, and Nissan. Thanks to the UAW and their paralyzing strikes.
Cool
Nobody is buying these Pick up trucks. They are absolutely not worth over 40 grand..
Lousy shift knob still ? Hurricane could be great motor if it proves reliable
