What will Dodge replace the Hemi with?
Will Ram trucks still have a Hemi?
We can't have the new Ram 1500 HEMI and be able to sell the previous models in the aftermarket. Why not? If there is any chance of an aftermarket Hemi, it will be on a Ram.
Why is it a "non-issue"? Because this whole thread has been filled with people saying how important Hemi power is and if it's gone, their car is now worthless. It's not an issue because the Ram has always had a Hemi.
Hemi is not the only power option. A diesel Ram also has a Hemi, but then you get E-150/2, a 4.7ltr V8, or maybe even a 5.0ltr V8. The Ram does not need to lose Hemi to make their truck profitable.
The only thing that would make a current owner go after a new Ram is the new HEMI, or anything related to the Hemi.e. People who have a Hemi would upgrade to the new version.
I think they'll put a hemi on all trucks eventually, it just depends on how much it would be in the long run. It would be the ultimate upgrade to have a hemi in a truck, I'm sure they'd like to keep the hemi engine option going for as long as possible.
That's true but it seems like a no brainer to me to do that. No way they are going to keep that option. It would give a big edge over the competition.
I believe I read somewhere that the new Hemi in the new Ram will be a dual exhaust system instead of dual side pipes like the previous Hemi was. I know it would add more cost but I think it would be worth it.
Will Ram offer the Hemi in 2024?
There's not much to add on what most of you already know. Will he offer a Hemi crate engine or a new base model as a one year option? Who knows for sure since that would just be one season of production. Ram is in a unique position to offer the most competitive new truck yet while still offering some of the features that make it hard to ignore. If they offered a Hemi crate engine and offered an extra year of factory warranty than even someone like me would consider Ram more than a pickup. However, I don't think that's going to happen. It's easy for Ram to offer an alternative to the Ram HD. A crate Hemi crate is one of the biggest things Ram could do that would bring the truck a lot closer to the competition.
In any case, I've got questions. What makes a good base model? What should it cost? What models should have what options? What model features should remain, and what should go? If you had your pick from each model what would it be? What could Ram do better than Ford or FCA? I want Ram to continue to do well for years to come, but I'm going to need to pay attention, especially at the dealers. I'll look for a 2024 Ram 1500 SVT Crew Cab as soon as they show up. Any guesses on when we might get to see the 2024 pickups on the showroom floor? I'd love to see a 2024 Ram SVT 2500 as well. What will 2024 looks like, how many models, will we see any changes?
You are missing the point of the question. Most people who are in a budget are buying this as their first truck. My choices as a new truck buyer was 1st Dodge, 2nd Ram, or 3rd no other option.
So I would buy a Ram if it would have enough options and value for me.9K, it wasn't worth the extra bucks for me. That doesn't mean all customers would feel the same way.
You can't please everyone. No one truck is ideal for everyone.

We may never know.
On a recent drive from New York to Florida, we pulled off the road for lunch and looked over at our 2024 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. As a Jeep junkie, it was hard not to be fascinated by the Wrangler, from its massive tires to the way it looks in the desert. But the thing that drew me to it was that very moment, sitting there in the middle of the New York Post-to-Disneyland highway, I realized just how much time I'd spent looking at the interior of that vehicle. Every time I turn my head, I'm trying to see if something's been changed or repaired, as if I can find the answer to Dodge's mystery. I want to understand why this thing has been built with me in mind. The only way to find out is to get in it and start driving. So I did.
I'm not even a little nervous about the fact that I'm going to be in a Jeep. You know, I've taken my share of trips in them, and if the worst thing that happens is a flat tire or something, then that's cool. But I know a lot of other people, who don't have such happy, trusting memories of Jeeps. There are two things that can make a car scary, and the first is turning on the ignition and hearing the rattle of a V8. The second is getting in a Jeep.
So I did what I always do when I get into a Jeep - I sat down in the driver's seat and just let it all soak in. I wasn't wearing a hat, and my hair felt free to blow in the wind. My first impression was that the engine is a great sound - I'm not sure what sort of volume you would expect from a six-cylinder engine, but the sound is definitely not subdued. And the engine itself feels solid, as if it would be pretty difficult to break. In fact, as I turned the key and started it up, I thought about the strength of the Jeep engine compared to other cars. I thought about how strong the suspension was, how much grip you get on the tires. Even though it was dark, I had no trouble seeing the pavement in front of me, because the lighting on the inside of the windshield is so bright.
