By far the best auto best truck review I’ve heard on CZcams ever!!! You convey the most vehicle information in the most concise way while making it exciting and interesting. Don’t stop making these vids. Keep it up cause you definitely have a big career ahead of you whatever you chose to report on.
When you run a quote on the RAM website it will say, "When properly equipped it can tow up to 11,560 pounds and carry a payload of 1,910 pounds", You have to choose the Trailer Tow Packages. Another exterior option is "4-Corner Air-Suspension - $1,995 - It includes five height selections. Up and down control is via a toggle button in the switch bank. It provides ease of entry and exit as well as a higher ride height for additional ground clearance and a lower ride height for aerodynamics and maximum efficiency." A CLASS exclusive.
Almost forgot: the 8 speed transmission is from ZF Friedrichshafen AG in Germany and they are widely recognized as one of the best manufacturers in the World. A significant upgrade.
I just rented this exact truck. 2025 Laramie no ugly tow mirrors! Twin turbo had plenty of power for me. Hauled butt in sport mode. Until i put 85 octane in it. Power got very weak. Very quiet motor .I down shifted it a lot in Rocky Mountain National Park. . That worked great. Lays a 6 foot black mark in sport 4wd. Wish i could take 4wd off in sport mode.0-60 was nice until 85 octane. Motor tachs high. Interior gauges,nav etc. was nice. Inside door panels look like they would weather quick. Headlights on dim could have been better. Seats and steering wheel were nice! Very nice truck but I would not pay 70k. I drive junk.
Great review! So many just run over the spec sheet. I engined how you went into more detail with the form and function of the different parts of the interior.
Great review Kenny! The refresh is really nice and this is the best looking big truck imho. Cheaping out on the running and tail lights is not cool on a 71k truck. The V8s are going to go away for the most part because of CAFE requirements but for me if I can get the same or more power out of a turbo 6 I'm good. Hope that you are doing great!
This truck has one of the better looking grills of ANY of the current truck and I also like the chrome front and rear bumpers - very seldom seen on todays trucks ( and cars, for that matter )
I think the grille looks pretty good. Looks like the 19-24' Limited Longhorn grille
Good job Kenny & I'm definitely buying this.
You the man! I appreciate your support bro
I’m happy with my 22 limited. I think the hurricane will be a good motor but I’m happy with my 5.7. Has enough power for my needs and the sound from the hemi is unmatched. I think the refresh is meh personally. It’s not much different than the previous version and a step back in some areas. I am jealous of the three settings on the heated steering wheel though. I know mine has the capability but you have to buy something to unlock all the hidden features in the vehicle.
I agree. It’s hard to beat a V8
This RAM is a well sorted vehicle.
Shame that it hasn't spray in bedliner as standard and also V8 should be an option. Greetings
Maybe I’m in the minority, but I’m glad they haven’t gone completely digital on the gauge cluster.
Nobody has the ride and luxury of the Ram pickups... but I wonder about their reliability
I own 2021 Laramie Night Edition. I only have 11k miles but so far no problems yet. But I got the extended warranty 7 year/ 85k. Bumper/ bumper
Standard turn signals, nice. A lot of car manufacturers could learn something from Ram. Turn signals should be standard on all vehicles.
Great detailed video! I like the refresh.
Thank you! I like your SS
@@703Speed Thank you Sir
They cheaped out on the headlights and taillights. Why?
$$$
@@703Speed I assume to get the headlights and taillights of Laramie they just be purchased as an add on? Good review as always.
The reason I think the refresh is a step back n still no digital dash on Laramie n under ford does Toyota does chevy does its just a step back and ask more money also jeep did same thing grand cherokee reflector led headlights n there expensive as hell wrangler they took the alpine speakers away unless u get a tech package stellantis sucks bad
The tail lights are that way because it's a lot less expensive to replace a bulb.
Unfortunately just like the 2025 F-150, Stellantis tried to copy GMC and give their trucks a more sophisticated exterior look but it only made the RAM look bland, conservative and underwhelming. The Sierra always has been the best looking half-ton truck imo but now it’s the truck with the most road presence too.
I kinda like the 24 better
LED Tail lights needed to be improved, as backing into a tight dark garage is extremely difficult!
This is one of great trucks & I must buy one.
dothink this would be a good vehicle for a comfortable cross country drive regularly GREAT VIDEO will sub herbalguy
would take a 24 for bigger discount and the hemi motor.....full size trucks arent for MPG, if it is you probably dont really need a truck
This makes more HP and more TQ than the Hemi…
I need a truck. Why can’t I also want to spend less on fuel?
Do you know what the MPG is for the bigger hurricane motor the one with 540 hp?
How about a 0-60 acceleration demonstration? No one has posted one yet. We all want to know if it beats the F150’s time,
Hmm. Might have to line up a 3.5L vs Hurricane
Great video .
Thank you
Good vid.
But nope, 8 banger or nothing for a truck that size (diesel of course excepted).
No replacement for displacement, physics matters.
The only reason they are doing this now is because the gov is putting a gun to their head for fines to meet mpg requirements. That's all.
If you think maintenance is expensive on your engine now....wait till you get turbo repair bills.
Have fun zooming around kids.....
Everything you said is a joke. 🤡 Cylinder count is irrelevant. A well designed engine can handle boost. The inline 6 Hurricane looks good on paper and I hope it turns out well.
The Hemi has notorious issues (lifters, exhaust manifolds, cams, etc). I daily a 5.7 Hemi but I know it’s not the most reliable and it has way less power (especially at elevation).
@@Lq32332 Sit down child....the adults are talking. Ever hear of RPM? Go ahead and compare son.....let me know. Do you even understand how engines wear? Ever wonder why 6 bangers are typically listed for about 150K and a 8 is 200K plus? Why don't you watch some real mechanics and learn?
I've owned more trucks and cars than you could ever afford. Including multiple hemi's (still running after 20 years) and also very expensive turbo's, cars you can only cream yourself over. You'll never afford them. So I'll explain them to you.
You are the joke. Go buy your turbo and tell me how wonderful those bills are. And since it is SO powerful...I'm sure you will just LOVE towing with them!!!
A FOCKING HONDA RIDGELINE HAS A HIGHER MAX PAYLOAD THAN YOUR TURBO!!!
Let that sink in son.
After you pay for premium gas. And oh..it's a new engine from Ram.....KNOWN for its reliability in all thing new? go ahead child. Buy it.
I dare you.
@@Lq32332these are the same guys visiting all the mid-size truck/SUV videos and claiming (6 cylinder or nothing). They actually think they’re making an impact by trolling in CZcams comments. They’re clueless boomers that think with modern technology we still need at least 8 cylinders, 6 cylinders or a hybrid in order to make great power _and_ be reliable.
going to buy a used Longhorn from that old guy who took good care of it, not the mexican contractor, but going to wait for SST hurricane cause the HEMI will blow up sooner or later.
The 360 cameras require some other expensive package? Otherwise why not have it for less than 400 bucks?
How would you have it for $400?
@@703Speed you said it was a package for less than 400. It’s in your video!
Same price as a lariat, smaller gas tank and less leg room up front compared to f150. I had a 2015 ram, liked it but the passenger front leg room bugged me.
What do you drive now?
@@703Speed shopping for a truck, Considering 2024 f150 lariat
@@703Speed Does the Laramie have LED DRLs?
@@Bronco2Cj No
@@703Speed I think its a shame.... They are doing the same as ford... gotta go Lariat to get the LED DRLs and with the Limited RAM and Lariat, higher MSRP... and they wonder why Chevy is starting to sell more
Honestly better than I thought it would be.
I don't like the led day time light
Thumbs up review. Peace bro
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Damn i swear your getting handsome more and more ❤
I thought it was just me but this guy _is_ cute and white guys aren’t even usually my type.
Well I'm black lol
Camera stub with no camera? That looks a MESS. SMH 🤦🏽♂️
Right
the connector may still be there..... if so may just need a configuration update 🤔
@@nf100sounds like a waste of parts and materials. Why have the connector built into the truck for a feature that the owner opted out of? I’d wonder if customers are being charged for the feature where they select it or not.
No one does it better then you kenny
Thanks man🙏🏼
Is that a fart at 2 minutes! Careful with that kneeling down pointing at the camera thing you might lose one in the undies
Most definitely a fart!!!😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 it was a sound affect bc I didn’t like how they lazily left the camera housing with no camera!😂😂😂
We had a 20 Ram with the 5.7L. Was a great truck. I love the sound of a v8, but for everyday driving and for towing, this hurricane would likely be my choice. In a truck, it’s about TORQUE, and the torque is down low in this new engine….in a v8 you have to rev it. And when towing or hauling a load for longer distances, the higher rpm driving with a v8 trying to pull gets tiresome in my opinion. Also, the hemi was THIRSTY!….dont think we ever broke 20mpg ever even with a tailwind.
Better off buying a GMC
Nawww I'm not into Gay Man's Choice
Of course the price of a house price market. At Biden Democrats price.
Sweetheart despite how much you’d love to you can’t blame everything you don’t agree with on the president of the United States. Go read a book 📚
Correct! Vote this nightmare out in November!!
@@CathyHolton-jh1xv Biden’s only a nightmare to MAGAts who want to go through another pandemic under tRump. Joe Biden is the best leader we’ve had since Obama, no coincidence that he was in the White House under Barack and our Vice President at the time for 2 terms (8 years). This man has been in a leadership position similar to the one he currently holds in our country for over 10+ years. If he or his policies were actual “nightmares” to this nation, you probably wouldn’t be here or alive to wake up from your “nightmare” in 2024 to vote for someone else.
Y’all are delusional and live in a fairy tale world. Joe Biden has been doing a great job both as Vice President and now as POTUS. On the flip side, Celebrity Apprentice star Ronald Rump was impeached during his first term as president. It’s literally the difference between *night* and *day.*
They just removed Biden & installed the Kamala commode. Democrats are not even bothered lol
No thanks I will stick with Toyota:P
I don’t like any of the full size trucks they’re all luxurious and crap 💩 even the work trucks are being luxurious I personally would rather stick with old school full size trucks
Nothing Stellantis has its hands on is better than before. Stellantis is a crap company.
Totally agree there ruined alot of the American cars
A little butt hurt
