Stellantis’ annual Mopar treatment lands on something truly special for the 2025 model year: the Ram 1500 RHO.

For our Best Car of the Year award, our watchwords are quality, innovation and value.

For our Best Pickup Truck award, our watchwords are power, capability and value.

Along with general excellence, the best cars represent ultimate luxury in their class and/or are exceptionally well-rounded, providing luxury along with above-average usability and drivability.

The 2025 Ram 1500 costs nearly the same to buyers’ bank accounts as it did in 2024, starting just $855 higher than the outgoing model.

A spokesperson for Ram parent company Stellantis confirmed that only the 350-mile-range version will be coming when the pickup makes its debut in 2026.

To find our favorite full-size truck, we tested the 2024 Ford F-150, 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 and 2025 Ram 1500 in a variety of evaluations.

We didn’t just like the Ram 1500 best, it also performed the best in a number of categories where its numbers simply beat the other two trucks.

To test how well each of the trucks in our full-size pickup comparison towed, we paired the 2024 Ford F-150, 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 and 2025 Ram 1500 with three similar camper trailers.
