Ushered in to fill the void created by the discontinued TRX and its 702-hp supercharged V-8, the Ram 1500 RHO pickup disarmed critics with its unassailable off-road chops, solid performance from its 540-hp twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six engine, and a dramatically lower base price. While it lacks the ultimate muscle and bark of the TRX's V-8, the 1500 RHO's inline-six earned a legion of new fans for its torquey powerband and smooth-as-glass behavior. Otherwise, it follows the crew-cab, short-bed, half-ton formula, but dials in up to 11.8 inches of ground clearance thanks to standard air suspension and model-specific Bilstein Blackhawk dampers.
