2025 Ram Heavy Duty Lineup Revealed: Cummins Diesel Power, Towing, and New Features

2025 Ram Heavy Duty Lineup Revealed: Cummins Diesel Power, Towing, and New Features​

The Ram brand enters 2025 with an updated 1500 lineup, a new CEO (Mopar Legend Tim Kuniskis), and has just unveiled the 2025 Ram heavy duty lineup, emphasizing increased power, luxury, and advanced technologies. While we have been speculating for years about what changes Ram would make when they updated their heavy-duty lineup, we now know everything about it, and we think Ram fans will be happy.

The Ram 2500 and 3500 will be available in Regular, Crew, and Mega Cab configurations as in the past. Regular Cab models are available exclusively with an 8-foot bed. In contrast, Crew Cab models will be available with either a 6’4 foot bed or an 8-foot bed. Mega Cabs will soldier on with 6’4 foot beds exclusively.

Well here it is, as long as they don’t call it all new (lol). Looks like they are taking a GM style play and not trying to be the biggest power numbers and making small improvements instead, and making some grills look well ugly in the process (Rebel) what’s going on there.

But it should work as a tool for sure as long as they price it right and don’t have major recall issues.

why is power down in the 6.4 by 5 be nice to have that info, but hey at least the Hemi is still available.

They maybe should of offered the 4:10 as a option for more towing but what do i know.

Hope they are very reliable because that’s what matters most in this class of pickups.
 
Seems Ram is now following Ford and GM with mismash Grille design! these grilles are going everywhere! up, down, sideways, with bars, inserts, etc. IT just does not flow! that is what set Ram apart in the Past! Grilles that were not Ugly! and all over the Place! like Fords and GM's then to take off the option of having chrome Bumpers on the Front and back I think is a Big mistake! they are catering to the enviro (hate chrome plating process) nuts with this! why not give us old heads at least a choice of a chrome Bumper on front and the back! as an option! those painted bumpers are No a go for me! I would hope some aftermarket folks make some Chrome Bumpers for these! I Like the Upgrades-drive line wise! and shifter!!!! Ram should of Known when us work truck Guys use our trucks with heavy gloves on that rotary shifter sucked! column shifting is a lot easier! with big gloves on! and does not get dirt all over everything! like when using the rotary shifter did! I hope they upgraded the LIfter's in the 6.4 Hemi! Engine, because that's been a pain!!! and one of the reasons the heavy duty's sales dropped!!!- Word of mouth rules! I know! I get asked all the time If I have Hemi tick! and I get mad when I have be honest and say yes! cause the jokes start! but the Jokes on us Ram owners with failing Lifter systems! Again I have the failing Lifter Hemi Tick! in my 2019!!! 6.4 hemi that has the cylinder deactivation system, also known as Multi Displacement System (MDS) I hate this!!!! And Again I HOPE they UPGRADED THE LIFTERS! for 2025! I do hope Ram comes back with stronger sales!!! across the board even with those ugly grilles! that's the MOPAR IN ME!

Being positive here. These Ram employees are not just sitting around, some really good things it seems are coming from their efforts. My half full glass gives hope to better days and credit too for some great things done under very challenging circumstances. I’m so boosted by these Rams that I’m going to pour a half full glass of Champagne and toast these too often maligned employees at Ram. Salute!

Agree on those ugly grills. Ouch !
Some caution, how will Ram resolve the Made in America situation on the Pro Master and City Master commercial vans? I see a real issue. As a work truck guy do you have any thoughts on these vital work vehicles ?
 
,,, how will Ram resolve the Made in America situation on the Pro Master and City Master commercial vans?
Ram has never said where the battery electric power train for the ProMaster EV comes from, so I don't know if that model is in trouble. I suspect the incoming administration and the Mexican government will reach some sort of agreement on the tariffs. The transmissions for these vans come from Kokomo, Americans being laid off because of tariffs would cause some embarrassment. The ProMaster City last came from Turkey. Nobody knows what side Turkey's government is on in any of the ongoing conflicts. The next PMC, based on the Fiat Scudo, will probably come from Europe. I think the best way around any potential tariffs would be assemble imported knock downs here in the US and use American built drivetrain pieces, whether ICE or electric. I would also do the same thing with the Fiat Doblo.

You’re new here…

Nothing you’ve said is remotely accurate. “Hemi tick” costs sales? Lie. There are more Ram Hemis out there than there ever has been, because the package is really really good. The tick also doesn’t lead to engine failure, it’s a weird quirk but engines don’t fail left and right. Hell, you’ll get a longer service life after the tick develops than before, because they just keep running. Fact.

The dial is an issue? Another lie. It’s gets dirt all over? A lie. I don’t know anyone that wears gloves inside their truck, never have.

You CAN get chrome. Has nothing to do with environment and everything to do with customer demand….the body color packages look AMAZING

Don’t come here with lies and bogus claims
