As someone who owned a TRX, this is 100% a TRX with a different engine!
He literally says that lol
Raiti never sleeps coming through like a Ram
Haha
True that!
Why sleep when he have one of the best jobs in the world.....giving reviews and test driving cars everyday 😃
Honestly, It's a cool truck!! The overall design looks soo much similar to the TRX but without a supercharged 6.2 L V8 tho. Still a cool truck! I can't wait for the off road review on the RHO!
A good V6 Raptor competitor.
It’s basically a photo copy of the TRX lol very interesting
Duh 😂 It’s a TRX but they stopped making the Hemi for 2025 cars and 1500 trucks.
So they made tge RHO.. Removed Hemi Option. It’s a sad time for Dodge and RAM buyers
@@dieseldave12v18I'm not sad, I prefer the mpg and straight six over the hemi, 540hp is enough
@@qbanlink25540hp is still a lot and more than most people need. But it’s funny you think a smaller displacement and turbos will get better mpg’s. On paper probably. But in real world I seriously doubt it. The F150 ecoboosts on paper get decent mpg’s. But in real world they get horrible mileage.
That thing is rad.. Thanks for the nighttime review. Ate a couple of Twinkies for energy to stay up for this one. 💙✌️
Joe,
Thanks for always staying on top of business bringing in the new stuff.
I stayed up for this....IDC if I do have to get up in a few hours for work...🥴
Wait you’re telling me 4k separates this from a TRD Pro Tacoma and it’s a full size pick up.Toyota needs to reconsider their pricing.
💯 correct I think 🤔 I made my choice.
Don’t forget the Tundra and the 25 4Runner lol rather get this
Yeah but a Tacoma would still outlive this garbage...lol
Ram has done it again. Can’t wait to hear how it sounds.
Done what again? They’ve been making this truck (TRX) since 2021. This is a TRX, but now called the RHO: Removed Hemi Option 😭
@@dieseldave12v18yeah but this is a new revision with the new different power plant so I imagine that would be the main curiosity....
@@dieseldave12v18ikr imagine taking out the hemi in a truck, how stupid
Look up EcoBoost engine ;)
I am going to buy RHO and change all the decals to TRX😂
Smart
And sell it.....
But it’s an RHO.. Removed Hemi Option. 😭
Only works until they hear you gas it 😂
Engine swap
Ram has had the best interiors for the last 15 years and have moved it up another notch.
Nope only since 2019
@@atg1338The new 1500 came out in 2018...
@@lynn5060 i guess i can't add🤔 it actually came out as a 2019 model but isn't it only 2024 or is it already 2034🤔

Thank you for taking us along this amazing adventures .
Great review, Fantastic truck inside and out.
The interior really stands out, plenty of awesome features
Thanks again for a thorough review
Can’t wait till the tuners get a hold of this. With the forged internals hopefully you can just upgrade exhaust/turbo(s) and 2x the hp
Burger Motorsports! They make a JB4 for it +104hp (Plug-N- Play)
I love it. I love the TRX. I wish I could afford both! Love how they kept the 3 lettering of these trucks too.
Dang it, I want that truck. I've never owned a pickup. But this video on the RHO has got me. Here in near downtown Chicago, all my friends would think I'm nuts. 😅 Thanks, Joe. All your fault. Great review👍🏼. 🧡 to Lori. Best camera person in the game.
Looks good. Can't wait to hear it and see it in person.
It looks amazing. Such a nice truck.
Really good looking truck. That rear passager space is roomy!
Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video 👍
I just ordered a 2025 Ram 1500 RHO!! I can't wait to take it off road!
Jeep uses the Hurricane power plant on the Grand Wagoneer & it pumps out 500hp. The RHO has a similar weight rating as the JGW, however the motor is tuned for performance, towing & off-roading….vs….luxury, daily driving. Will be curious as to what the mpg on the RHO will settle at. The 5.7 & 6.4 hemi’s are great motors but suck down the fuel & get terrible gas mileage. All things stated, most don’t buy these types of vehicles for the gas mileage….having owned all the various versions of the 5th Gen 1500 & 2500, the fit & finish of these trucks accompanied with the power-trains offered make for awesome driving experiences.
Needs 10 year 100.000 mile bumber to bumper warranty.
HELL YEA THIS IS FANTASTIC
Can’t wait for that on throttle action soon! 💯🔥🔥
Joe, great review! How much was this truck with all the goodies? Also, did they give you MPG numbers?
Great review.. great truck
RAM -now this how you compete! Got my attention.
Top notch as always bro, just one big thing missed (big to me) Heads Up Display) is one of the other great things about it.
Maybe I missed it but will it have an integrated brake controller for towing?
great job Ram , great review
I need it 🤩 but of course I’m taking off those RHO Decals
I wonder if people will replace them with TRX decals
Super nice looking truck. If markups weren’t a thing (and they shouldn’t be IMO) you would be crazy to buy a $60k midsized truck instead. $70k RHO vs $65k Tacoma…. Easy pick for me. I’m wondering what the RHOX model has? Front Locker?
Thanks for staying up late and bringing us the coverage.
My thoughts exactly, these midsized trucks top out at the same price as this more off-road capable vehicle, now if only it’s got a good warranty 🤔
Exactly what I was thinking. The last TRD Pro he reviewed was 67, vs this at 69. Unless you’re worried about it fitting in a garage or really dislike Ram it’s a no brainer.
@@jameshumphrey3425 and you can fit normal sized adults with room on the rear seats
I’m getting this in Yellow for sure
This shit makes me want a truck now MOPAR all the way baby!!!
It's FCA Stellantis 😅
Damn, that thing looks Cadillac luxury!
Looks good.
Hey Joe
Great vid as usual. Do these have the floor storage box in the rear passenger area?
Yes they do! Thanks for letting me share it with you!
@@RaitisRides After seeing Tacoma TRD pro start at 65k with destination, this truck feels like a bargain
Dealers are guaranteed to mark it up $20,000. I want to see the 2025 Power Wagon, they'll probably announce it at the Texas state fair, hopefully they've made a major redesign for the HD's
I Just bought one today and they marked it down 10k! Seriously ! Mark Dodge in Louisiana - they are not fucking around - they are moving trucks.
I somewhat like the starting price, particularly when compared to the TRD Pro, but the cynic in me already knows that CDJR is notorious for expensive options. I suspect, and may be wrong, that the truck shown in this review is over $80k. As a car enthusiast it's cool to see RAM working on new specs like this RHO, but anecdotally I'm seeing strong evidence that buyers are pumping the brakes hard on these expensive trucks given how many are starting to pile up on dealer lots. Great job as always Joe and Lori!
I would option it down a bit, so the pricing would be comparable to the TRD Pro.
😮wow, $69k! That interior is awesome. I'm still buying me a TRX for my birthday.
Sounds like a plan!
Looks great , total package. Only question is reliability and pricing but wow very nice
Well done by the RAM people setting up this secret environment for Joe to review this RHO vehicle. The badging looks great.
I do like the new headlight , sure they will fit on the TRX
I'll give Ram this, the fact it's a straight 6 instead of a v6 does make it interesting even if the design is completely Italian 👀
Nice
Will Ramcharger match or exceed RHO performance? Great choices coming up. I'll bet I can make Openpilot drive these trucks as on our Grand Cherokee Trailhawk, Openpilot is excellent.
What power sources? 120V, what wattsge limit? Just 400W, or even more?
RC will be faster stock. But the RHO can handle spray and other mods no problem 😁
@@BloodAlwaysFindsItsLevelGreat point. To answer my own question, inverterbin RAM RHO can output 2kW electrical power through 120V outlets. Excellent.
Great review you gained a new subscriber, I will be back for more reviews.
I was looking at a raptor but since I saw this I'm getting one as soon as they come out..
Looks good
Is this in Auburn Hills, MI?
I miss the days when the Raptor's starting MSRP was 40K. Times they are a changin
I want one RHO🤷🏾♂️💯💯💯🎯😤😤👍🏾
That's a nice truck, and since the price is lower than the trx, hopefully, I get it by the end of the year
im going buy one
I love it. Great
I went to my local dealer and built an RHO. I wanted to see exactly how expensive I could make the truck. I added the Level 1 equipment package, offroad running boards, silver paint, all the graphics, bead lock wheels, bed protection, red interior accents, and the trailer brake controller. After all was said and done my MSRP was $91k. However most people would be able to get it for less if you negotiate with the dealer. My local dealer has a Final Edition TRX and I was able to get him down to invoice on the price but it is still just too expensive for me, and it’s more power than what I really need so I’ll probably order an RHO.
I don't know about Aluminum Control Arms, Steel ones can even get damaged so you know what will happen to Aluminum parts on a suspension if you do some off roading and hill or rock climbing. I'm sure they say "our tests show this or that" but real world use often outdoes test track driving.
im glad you said it kuz i been tryna tell the haters "the rho is not a trx replacement'
Umm.. no. But it’s a TRX truck with the RHO: Removed Hemi Option 😤
But in reality, it is the TRX replacement. They are no longer making the TRX after 2024. The RHO is a 2025. The only Ram to have a Hemi now with me 2500 models.
@@dieseldave12v18 i believe there will be another trx. im guessing after the 2500s get the new cummins theylll start talking about a new trx. but hey im just speculating.
My only concern is well it ACTUALLY only be $69k base? I recently a couple months ago bought a 2023 RAM Classic Hemi for $60k. My truck is basic as heck in comparison to the Rhino and to be only a $9k difference?
So this pretty much means they will put the high out put in-line 6 in the charger
High output scat pack 😊
@@Pistolpete678no thanks give me a roaring V8
The new charger is basically the 6 pack with the I6.
@@Freddo.00it’s over with buddy
@@lafosh7234 ik sadly they going away I still want a v8 tho a good ole roaring American muscle v8 car 🔥
It could be more beautiful with the red stitching interior 😍
Hopefully dealers play fair and don’t add markups
Do those 3 red lights above the rear license plate come on the RHO or are they there because of the showroom display? And do the rear seats recline?
Those are very good questions. Stay tuned for all of your answers!
Wonder how it sounds.
Hi Joe! I miss the Hellcat engine. Do you think the TRX will keep its resale value high? ❤
Finally! Ram has created a true rival to the Ford Raptor 😀 (not the R, thats the TRX of course). This looks fantastic 👌!
TRX is coming back in 2026..😊
@@johnblack4915where’d you get that info from
@bryanb9636 um FCA Stellantis (Mario Bros) confirmed it will come back with the high output hurricane 🌀 engine with hybrid piggyback..the Raptor R maybe will retire the V8 version and supercharged the ecoboost with a hybrid piggyback it will be a great competition
@@johnblack4915 ah ok TRX coming back but just not with the supercharged v8
@bryanb9636 yes 😊..the Hellkitty motor is retired 😄..its not going be like previously but enough hp and more torque than the 6.2 supercharged..efficient and powerful and weigh less..
I’ve never been a Dodge, Ram person myself. Ive preferred Toyota but the more I see this truck the more I’m interested. Im looking to buy a truck sometime this year and the Tundra and Tacoma have been high on my list. Not that big fan of the new redesigns. Dodge has always nailed it on interior designs and comfort. I am considering this but my biggest worry is reliability. Dodge and twin turbos in the same sentence just makes me question.
It is said that you are one of a kind! 🦄✨ #unique #special #oneofakind
We gone work hard to push these trucks out for ya’ll Ram team…
I was thinking the same thing 😂
Go Lions!!!
When are they releasing them for sale?
What was the fuel consumption?
Does it have a heated steering wheel?
Which do you prefer, the RAM or Cyber Truck ?
Which is better I’m dying to know?
Ram dealers needs to stop mark ups
I love it
Ram hits it out of the park again. A Real truck, for real working people and a starting price almost 10k less than light duty early trade in fords.
#RHO wins hands down
⚓
QUESTION! - Is the RHO coming out in the Baja sand color? This was a huge color that was out for the TRX.
Any plans on releasing the color for the RHO?
A big beige truck, it's BEIGE! ugly as hell
Maybe one day I will buy the 6, but no time soon. It's about power only the fun of the V8 can't be replaced to me.
That is a good way to put that!
Hello joe first time your wish is fulfill rear ventilated seats available in this truck
Pretty close to it for sure!
69k for stripped not equipped
The was the” peasant “TRX price in 21
That RHO is sick if you can handle the sound it makes.
Hopefully there is a silent mode for the exhaust.
That would definitely be the best sounding option
RAM will sell a lot of these
If imagine the “advance” version is at least $20k more
Never seem to care about the RAM trucks at anytime, but RHO sure looks more beefy.💯
Will be comparing this to my gen 3 raptor for sure...
That is good to know!
I like it Joe, especially if the price can stay MSRP
Price is better for sure!
That’s A nice Truck
I am glad that you are digging this one Jerome.
I'm not a hater - but I'm glad I grabbed a TRX
Was hoping this would be the Dakota reveal.
That boy said EB games😂😂 took it back my boy
I bet a few upgrades and tune on that twin turbo will get it even faster than the NA TRX.
This is so very true!
Once again...MOPAR is where it is at!
you are power man
RAM has been giving you rear ventilated seats for at least five years. Maybe more. No zonk for keeping the people in the back comfortable.
Omg amazing excellent price point
🔥🔥🔥
This thing is great, im not even mad that theres no more v8. The raptor is doing great with a v6 so the RHO will do great too. The price is also very competitive, unlike the trx that i believe was too expensive.
🙏🙏🙏
Actually it nice looking truck and then I like price 😊
Good thing about ditching the V8 is when this inevitably breaks down you will have lots of room in the engine bay to work on it.
"Inevitably breaks down"??? I've owned 5 Dodge vehicles and none of them gave/gives me issues. There's a reason why RAM has won Truck of the Year multiple times. Try again.
Poor haters living in misery. Share your pain in jealousy lol
The Ram wins every time. They need to trade in every year, we keep the Mopar forever 😹
Triggered
Thats a nice truck, but hoping we can just order a regular Rebel with the RHO engine.
I wonder how much this specific truck is I would assume 75k to 85k because we all know that each upgrade come with a cost.
