Default New 25 model Ram 1500 today

Came to work today and was presented with my new work truck today.
Had a 22 model classic with a 5.7 ,
this one has the3.0 inline 6cy twin turbo.


Not sure I'm going to like that.
Anybody have an opinion of it?

Not yet, but we will most certainly be interested to hear YOUR opinion of it.... actually having one to drive.

Well, that is the truck that I bought. Have already made a trip in it. Had the truck 3 weeks and already went over 1000 miles. I work from home so that is why they mileage seems high to me.
I like it. First thing I learned was be careful with the throttle on takeoff. Lots of torque. Gets pretty good fuel mileage too. Added the nerf bar and the tonneau cover and I like that color. I had the 5.0 Coyote 4 engine in a 4x4 F-150, and this one has 10HP more. Already been tested on the back roads passing 2 semi-trucks so it has plenty of power.
I have started a thread on the new guy page and I have pictures of the Blizzard in Texas for 2025 and my new truck.
I think you will enjoy it, it has more power than the Hemi V-8. Sneak a K&N filter in it and you can really hear the turbos' whine.

I bought same one in October, have about 3K on it.
Love the power it has, previous truck was an 01 with 5.9 gas motor. Had it for over 20 years & loved it.

Now I have a new problem, but I'll not spoil this thread with it. Just enjoy the fuel mileage, power & comfort of the new truck.
