RAM IS TESTING A V8 RHO—AND IT COULD SAVE YOU THOUSANDS.
I have the exclusive details on a new Ram test mule packing a Hemi instead of a Hurricane engine, designed to bring the legendary “Scat Pack” formula to trucks.
You want the aggressive widebody looks of a TRX or an RHO, but you don’t want to pay $100,000 to get it? Ram might actually be listening. @TKsGarage and I just got word from multiple sources about a highly interesting pilot vehicle rolling around. It features the RHO body style, sits on 22-inch street wheels, and—most importantly—has a 5.7L Hemi V8 under the hood instead of the twin-turbo Hurricane.
Why are they testing this? It comes down to cost. I am breaking down the engine production costs to prove that the legacy Hemis are significantly cheaper to produce than the new Hurricanes. With the RHO currently costing a mind-blowing $120,000 equivalent down in the Mexican market, Ram desperately needs a budget-friendly muscle truck. I’m predicting they will use the exact playbook Tim Kuniskis perfected with the Dodge muscle cars: drop a 5.7L or 392 Hemi into the widebody, strip some of the insane off-road tech, and price it right in that $65,000–$69,000 sweet spot between the Rebel and the standard RHO. Plus, stay tuned to the end where I drop a massive teaser for my next video about the true supercharged successor to the legendary SRT-10!
