Remember those slammed, snarling, pavement-eating pickups of the early 2000s? We do too. Enthusiasts have been wondering when the street-truck era might make a comeback, and there’s been a buzz building in the truck world these past few years. Well, Ram heard the chatter, and Fox Factory and Direct Connection answered it. They’ve just rolled out a Ram 1500 engineered to live its life on asphalt. It’s old-school muscle in the modern world.

The 2026 Ram 1500 is roaring back with the iconic 5.7-liter HEMI® V-8 engine, a move that’s leaving our truck fans buzzing. It’s got original HEMI power reimagined with a modern twist, the eTorque mild hybrid system. Add that to Ram’s new “Never Stop Being American” campaign, the return of the value-packed 1500 Express trim, and an industry-leading powertrain warranty, and you’ve got a pickup that’s as much heart as it is innovation! Let’s break down these exciting updates for our Ram lovers.
