    2025 Builder is UP!

    hmmm...i see on my local dealership has 2025 orders. Cheapest 2025 ram bighorn (v6 engine) they have is listed for $62k. Wow....just wow. i guess it will sit right next to the 2024 big horn they are trying to sell as well, with rebates of $10k for under $50 that is still sitting there.

    2025 Builder is UP!

    A couple of youtube channels are ripping into the price for the 2025 rams. Base bighorn...4x4 crew cab level 1 (because you have to pick a level)..starting price is $55k and only includes the 3.6 pentastar engine. Just insane pricing. Stellantis just doesn't understand their customers...

    2025 Builder is UP!

    Not suprised by that if it was true...but that's how corporate greed comes into play and shoot themselves in the foot with pricing. If it was closer in pricing on regular ice engine, folks will see value on it and will pay a little extra for that upgrade. If it was a 2-5% increase people would...

    2025 Builder is UP!

    Interesting that there is no official ram revolution or ram ramcharger pricing. Just want a bighorn ram rev with ram boxes…but just judging on pricing for the same i6 engine… it’s gonna be easy over $60k to START. Not a good way to jump into the ev segment especially since they are like 3...

    2025 Builder is UP!

    Messing with it now...glad the big horn has the ramboxes back. And no back country package...maybe I missed something last year. Tried to match up as closely as to my 2022 build and with the upgraded engine it's about $5k more. That's a big deal...for a tough truck market. 2022 Ram Big Horn...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    Very true. I think if it was matte black, that would stand out even more. The rebels are like that too. Come to think if it…now I wonder how they painted that bottom half black. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara

    Why Laramie over Big Horn?

    Laramie is standard with led headlights, vented seats, and passenger power seats. Other things that ram has taken away from the bighorn over the years is the rambox, and some of the fancy electronics. Just stick with your must haves and just go from there. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    I know lots of folks love that hood. I had a rebel before it, and I just didn't like it. When looking out it just blocked alot more view than I would like. But I get it, and from outside, the sport hood looks great. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021 Jeep...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    Wow...so I just checked ram website...no more back country for 2024. At least wheni tried to build one. I need to reach out to eighty and see how many were built 2022 and 2023. I must be that special unicorn to have not only a back country, but one with ramboxes. They took that option off...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    Curious to know how popular is the backcountry trim. Definitely don't see that many out there in general. I can sew ram just phasing that trim out for just the offroad package...or just get rid of the offroad trim all together. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    My experience with big chain tire places is that they don't like messing with anything that isn't stock. I took it to a mom/pop shop, or a 4wd auto shop and got mu aftermarket rims and tires installed 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    Correct me if I'm wrong...directly from ram's site "The generator can also increase the power to the motor and gearbox when serious power is needed." So it's not direct...it's more like taking generator power to give it a little extra juice. I can imagine that there is a limit to how long it...

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    Agree that we need to figure out the entire system. I'm just going by the website that it will have a 130-kilowatt generator that comes from the engine. It converts that mechanical engine power to electric power to the battery. How the power is transferred (either full 130kw or less) and...

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    Good question and I'm not sure. Right now the current 3.6 puts out like 275hp ish ( roughly 205kw) power...I can't imagine them having a different engine from the one they currently use for the tradesman. Without an alternator or etorque curious to know how much power the 3.6 puts out...
