2025 Ram 1500 Tradesman: Ram's New Work Truck! 

Yep folks, we live in a time when a basic "work truck" can start at 46k BEFORE options, oh the "good ole' days" when at "work truck" started around 20k....

$52k for that is crazy. I have a 2018 F-150 Lariat with the 502a luxury package, the special edition sport package and the 5.0 V8, among other things. Paid $33k. Only 80k miles, which is nothing for that Coyote V8. Cannot imagine paying $20k more for a base model truck just because it’s newer. There’s nothing that truck can do that mine can’t

If I was to lease a ram I would go for the hurricane rather than the pentastar

52 grand is steep for a Tradesman V6, in my opinion. It is a Night Edition, right? You usually mention that in your vids 👍🏾.

They should've got rid of the pentastar instead of the hemi.

3:27 I really like how the tachometer even reads the speed of the engine when it is starting. That is really cool. Watch it closely. And the fact that it doesn’t just jump up like so many cars do today. That’s one really cool feature that I’m glad it has.

White truck with Every thing black that's so cool love it

I will happily take the pentastar V6 over the new hurricane i6, it has more history behind it and is more reliable than the new engine.

Ty for sharing, pricing aside, in my eyes this feels more like a express or big horn not a tradesman ready to be placed on a job site ... Neat truck over all, I like how it looks.

Does the tailgate lock? Does the backseat arm rest have cup holders?

52k for a work truck? I hope that POS sits on the lot for a full year.

Can you get it with crank windows?

Hope they put better oil coolers on those and something better for penny tick

Nicest base model pickup for sure. Idk if I'd really want the V6 in a full size, but id be willing to test drive it.

Well I have to say for 52 Grand I think that is a fair price for that truck. I can't believe I'm going to say something good about ram but got to give credit where credit is due To get an actual V6 engine naturally aspirated is a hard thing to get nowadays with no turbo hopefully it's going to be reliable down the road. I got to give Ram credit for keeping the naturally aspirated V6 engine. Now the only question is is it going to be reliable for the next 10 years?

wow the freeways in Utah are sure different then here in New Mexico maybe Arizona might have the same freeway design system as you guys in Utah.

Which truck has the most comfortable seats?

I've been considering getting a Chevy Custom, my local dealership has one for $42k, it's an extended cab and 4x4. A buddy of mine has the 2.7 in his 2020 Sierra, he has 157k miles on it and no issues with regular maintenance. Thoughts?

2025 Ram 1500 Tradesman 3.6L V6 eTorque 8-Speed Automatic Night Edition Crew Cab 4X4!

Work truck is for working people No one can afford that Ridiculous Ram and Dodge are going to be the first to die I am already seeing Challengers for 4 G less than earlier this year This will not sell

I mean listen, it’s better than a 4 cylinder because it would be strained by its turbo and isn’t even gonna be able to deliver that all that power anyways. The V6 will do just fine. It’s more about the transmission tuning than it is the power output. Plus, 5,000 pound vehicle. AND it’s a work truck, not a race car.

What a beast! That V6 will do burnouts all day long!!

I can get a 2500 Chevy with a 6.6l gasser and Allison transmission for that price.

I like basic, less stuff to break, but still too expensive.. Especially with 2 less cylinders .. Should b $40k max…

Can get a Sierra 1500 Pro with a 5.3L V8, 20" wheels, 4x4, and painted grille and bumpers for $54k Why anyone would buy a Stellantis product with this _DOG_ of an engine is beyond me.

Whats the model of your tripod? Looks nice!

No screen for the pasanger? 😂 whats going on here?

Can get them around 35K at mark dodge. Best Ram dealership in the nation.

Did we get a beard trim?

Oh nice the crappy NA V6 lol

I test drove the pentastar and I did not like it,just my opinion

Reliable motor but I can't believe they still put this in a full size truck. Not enough torque.

Four-wheel drive it should be an option it shouldn't be standard equipment

Ending with V8 they shot themselves in the foot with such a move everywhere I hear that nobody wants V6 I think it was the worst move I suspect that either we will see the return of the V8 very quickly or poor sales and trouble.

these trucks could be used around the world as trucks but greed has these companies killing the American truck buying public with these past ridiculous prices. no truck maxed out 3500 should be over 22,000 dollars. america should be shipping to every country in the world. more jobs than we have ever known. for 60 -100K people buy bmw, Audis, Mercedes... and they rebuild somebody's piece of junk that kills the market for new.

Honestly, if you classify a vehicle as a work truck, then it needs an engine to match. You can't do much work with a half ton truck that has an engine that can't produce fuck all for torque.

Good looking Tradesman, but it's $10k more than I paid for an almost fully loaded 19' Laramie with HEMI. Crazy what #BIDENFLATION has done to our beloved truck market.
