I'm 70 and worked at a gas station in high school. We young guys all thought inline sixes were dull, the V8s were the whole game. My dad was a mechanic and got a used 1963 Chevy step side pickup with a 283 and he told me he wished it had the inline six because it had more torque. I've since learned that inline sixes are one of the three most perfectly balance cylinder configurations, I love smooth engines now, inline sixes are cool. BMW had some great I6s.
The turbo is driven by the exhaust but it delivers fresh air to the engine. It does not push exhaust gas into the engine.
Do you agree with our sizing up of the Ram's Hemi vs. the inline-six in this comparison? Let us know in the comments.
What was the gas mileage comparison while towing? I wish you would have compared the standard output Ram. I think that is the version of Ram most consumers would buy.
I own both, zero problems from the hemi but hurricane better performance
I have a 25 RHO and the self driving works quite well with my dark sunglasses, and my mirrored ones as well. Not even once has the self driving had an issue. Tracks my eyes through them just fine and alerts me when I am admiring the scenery too much 🤷 I can link the sunglasses I'm wearing as well if anyone doubts their darkness.
I tried almost all the trucks in the market and went with ram and cant change to any other truck . ram is mix of sports luxury and aggressive truck that other trucks cannot offer
I just bought the 2026 dodge ram Laramie, twin turbo. So far I love how it drives
I'm genuinely shocked that the Hyundai Santa Cruz wasn't crowned the winner of the RAM 1500 Hurricane versus RAM 1500 Hemi comparison. Way to go, Edmunds!
