After RAM’s discontinuation of the 1500 TRX for the 2025 model year, the spirit of the raucous, off-road-centric truck continued on with slightly less displacement. The 2025 RAM 1500 RHO is a specialty pickup engineered to compete head-to-head with other high-performance pickups, like the Ford Raptor.

After a multi-decade hiatus, the trim level returned in 2005 as a force to be reckoned with on the trail and retains its impressive performance to this day.

Which Trim Package is Right for You? 

With all of our RAM trim packages covered, now comes the challenging question of which is right for you. Selecting the trim package you plan to invest in depends on your intended usage of the pickup, your desired features, and your budget—let’s take a close look at each of these factors.  

When debating which trim package is best for you, consider how you plan to use your pickup. Is it a dedicated work truck, a family vehicle, or a weekend wheeler? As a work truck, we’d recommend the Tradesman for its basic options and considerable value. For a street-driven daily driver, we’d opt for a Big Horn at the least, though the Laramie, Limited, and Limited Longhorn are considerably comfier and well-optioned. Off-road enthusiasts will appreciate the added performance of a Rebel, RHO, or Power Wagon. 

Next, let’s touch on your budget. As aforementioned, the more options, the higher the price tag. For instance, a base model Tradesman 1500 can be had for just over 40,000 dollars MSRP, whereas a Tungsten begins at over 87,000 bucks. Your ideal budget will likely inform the features you’re comfortable living with or without. With this number in mind, analyze the trim levels at that price point and gauge which aesthetics and options best suit your preferences. 

And remember, if you’re having trouble finding the exact options you’re looking for on dealer lots, you can always Special Order a New Pickup. Additionally, we offer a massive inventory of parts and accessories to transform even an entry-level RAM into the truck of your dreams.
