What Engine Powers the Ram 1500 RHO?

The Ram 1500 RHO is built to dominate every type of terrain, from city streets to sand dunes, thanks to its powerful High-Output 3.0L Hurricane engine. With 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft of torque, it delivers more standard power than the Ford Raptor, along with an impressive maximum towing capacity of 8,380 pounds and a payload of 1,520 pounds. You can even fine-tune your Ram's performance with nine available drive modes, including Mud/Sand, Rock, Baja, Valet, Auto, Tow, Snow, Sport, and Custom, giving you ultimate control no matter the conditions.

What are the Ram 1500 RHO's Performance Features?

It's time to discuss the star of the show, which is the wealth of off-road performance features that the Ram 1500 RHO has to offer. Its Bilstein Black Hawk e2 Shock System continuously adapts to speed, throttle, braking, torque, and steering angle, providing optimal body control and extreme suspension articulation. Launch Control Mode helps eliminate wheelspin for a smooth, powerful takeoff, while the heavy-duty locking differential ensures both rear wheels work together for maximum stability and control on challenging terrain. With 11.8 inches of ground clearance and 13 inches of front and 14 inches of rear suspension travel, the Ram 1500 RHO is ready to tackle any off-road adventure.

What Makes the Ram 1500 RHO's Design Unique?

The Ram 1500 RHO isn't just built to perform, it's built to turn heads. With 35-inch off-road-ready tires and available 18-inch beadlock-capable wheels, it sits tall and ready for just about any terrain you can throw at it. Bold black RHO badging on the exterior and hood shows off the truck's power and rugged personality, making a statement wherever you go. Plus, the available powered tailgate makes loading and unloading a breeze. You can open and close it with your key fob, a button in the overhead console, or right from the tailgate itself, giving you convenience that matches its capability.

What Are Our Off-Road Safety Tips?

Before hitting the trails here in Texas, reviewing some off-road safety is key to making every adventure enjoyable and accident-free. Always start by checking your Ram's condition, including tires, brakes, fluids, and suspension, before heading into rough terrain. Keep your speed under control, especially on rocky or uneven surfaces, to prevent losing traction or damaging your truck. Use 4WD when needed, and engage features like hill descent control or locking differentials for added stability on steep inclines or slippery ground. It's also smart to travel with a buddy and let someone know your route, and carry essential supplies like a first-aid kit. By planning ahead and respecting your environment, you can enjoy Texas' trails safely in your Ram 1500 RHO.
