2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn
A new vehicle is in the cards, and you've already narrowed it down to the 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn. What an excellent choice! You'll have plenty of room in the cabin, for yourself and your passengers, plenty of power under the hood, and lots of extra capabilities; you can stow a payload of up to 2,370 lbs, for example. Whatever the journey, many miles or few, the Ram 1500 Big Horn will have you traveling in luxury, which you might not have come to expect from a truck, especially of this size.
You can choose between a Quad Cab or Crew Cab, but either way, you can seat up to six people comfortably. Everyone knows you don't buy a truck for the interior space, though; you buy a truck for its towing and hauling capacities and its exceptional off-road and all-terrain support. The Ram 1500 Big Horn is ready to head onto the trail with you, whenever you are, but it works just fine for casual rides on the asphalt, well-kept or not. Those backcountry roads and bumpy rides will be no problem at all for this truck, with smooth handling expected.
So, how does the 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn stack up? That's a great question and one we'll aim to answer, both here online and if you pay a visit to LaFontaine Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fenton. Without further ado, let's open the driver's door, climb inside, and see what the Ram 1500 has to offer.
MSRP: $45,230[a]
Horsepower: 305
Torque: 269 lb-ft
Towing: 8,110 lbs
Performance
The Ram 1500 Big Horn boasts a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine that delivers 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. Coupled with a high towing limit of 8,110 lbs and a payload capacity of 2,370 lbs, it becomes apparent that the 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn is hungry for some real work. Of course, power and performance aside, the eTorque-equipped engine is also more efficient than traditional gas-powered setups, thanks to this mild hybrid system. Trucks aren't exactly known for their fuel economy, but here, well, let's just say you'll be surprised. Getting up to 20 MPG in the city and 26 MPG on the highway, you can cruise for quite a while on a full tank.
That added power also lends itself to the truck's overall versatility. You can use this beast for hauling, towing, trailering, taking family trips, camping, working outdoors or on a construction site—you name it. The Quad Cab comes with a six-foot four-inch bed versus the Crew Cab's standard five-foot seven-inch bed, but even if you go with the smallest size, that's enough room to stow debris, supplies, tools, and more. You can also upgrade a model with the Crew Cab to the six-foot four-inch bed if you want a larger cabin and a larger bed.
Driver assistance tech includes a lane keeping assistant, lane departure warning, and blind spot monitor, and you don't have to worry about enabling or fiddling with all of those functions; they just work. This truck will get you there on time, within scope, and safely. That's not a whole lot to ask for, but these days, that's phenomenal. You'll get the tools you need to prepare a tow, run your average haul, or just get yourself back and forth between home and the office.
Design
Fresh styling adorns the truck, inside and out. The 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn has an updated grille, new headlights, and prominent aesthetics that stand out in a world of stock vehicles and designs. The dual-tier grille strikes a mean look that gives the feel of confidence. But don't worry, because the Ram 1500 Big Horn works just as well in professional and business settings; we already know it's capable there, too.
New paint options service that fresh style to give you some true personalization, when and if you want it. Red, blue, black—sure, these might seem like standard options, but when you see that Hydro Blue up close, glinting in the sun, you'll be smitten. We know looks aren't everything when it comes to a truck; power, performance, and capability are the main attributes most consider, but it doesn't hurt to have a good-looking vehicle, either.
The interior is cozy and inviting, which is a stark contrast to the intimidating yet welcoming exterior design. The Ram 1500 sits at the head of its class, with available leather upholstery that is soft and comfortable—an interior treat that exudes prestige. The steering wheel, for example, sports a small block cutout on the bottom. It doesn't just look good; it feels good in the palms of your hands, too.
An eight-inch (or optional 12-inch) touchscreen rests front and center on the dashboard. Additional styling and accents cut a striking figure. Come take a look inside one of these, sit yourself behind the wheel, and scope the updated dash, and you'll understand immediately what all the fuss is about. It already feels like climbing into a next-gen vehicle, but inside the cabin is where you'll truly have that experience.
Technology
The eight-inch (or 12-inch) touchscreen on the dashboard is fully functional with navigation, media playback, and auxiliary support; it also works with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay out of the box. Perhaps most important is that you'll be using it with the backup camera.
This is no small vehicle, after all. Not to mention, jamming out to your favorite tunes during a drive is always a kick—something you can achieve in the Ram 1500 Big Horn with its punchy audio system. The standard six-speaker surround setup is a welcome addition this year, with up to nine total speakers when upgraded. These same speakers would fill a room with audio if they were stacked in a theater.
In addition to the backup camera and the lane-keeping safety features already mentioned, you get blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alerts, and adaptive cruise control. An optional upgrade can introduce a hands-free driving tool, evasive steering, and a surround-view camera. Integrated towing hardware is also available if you really want to attach a trailer.
In the back, this pickup's box bed can have an onboard power panel with a 115-volt AC port. Plug your tools and electronics right into the truck, as needed, no matter how far from civilization you are. You don't have to worry about wearing down the truck's battery either. This will come in handy when you're off the grid or exploring the wilds, bringing your Ram 1500 into an environment where it naturally excels.
Comfort
Whether you choose this trim with the Quad or Crew Cab, you will be able to seat up to six passengers with solid legroom and headroom. But there's a bunch of room under the seats for quick storage. There's also some storage tucked away in the central cubby for snacks, drinks, or whatever else you want to throw in there. Honestly, it's tough to visualize how much room is hidden or available in the 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn's cabin, which is precisely why you'll want to scope it out for yourself.
Inside are majestic cloth seats (which can be upgraded to leather), designed to match the minimalistic style. Most importantly, the upholstery and seats are comfortable, so the family will have no problem taking long rides with you. If you want to take a quick trip to a local hotspot with some friends, they'll likewise be impressed. Who wouldn't?
The Ram 1500 Big Horn is a stunner through and through. The dashboard and instrument panels are expansive, and while they are proud, they don't look out of place in the Big Horn's roomy interior. You have an infotainment stack with that large touchscreen, a center console with large cup holders, a sizable glove box, and a sweeping dash that you'll have to see to believe.
A Truck That Will Serve You Well
It doesn't matter why you're climbing behind the wheel; the 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn is ready for you. It has a spacious interior, some excellent modern tech, great fuel economy, a large box bed, an excess of towing power, and the list goes on. Now you just need to decide if the Ram 1500 Big Horn is the right truck for you. It is a capable workhorse as much as it is a casual driver—versatile, powerful, and comfortable inside and out.
