2025 RAM 2500 vs 2024 Toyota Tundra

Toyota has been trying to crack the full-size pickup truck code for over 30 years. The company’s first try was the T100, followed by three generations of Tundras that got bigger and more capable with each redesign. The 2024 Tundra is a massive Texas-built truck, but it still can’t match the towing and payload capacities of the segment leader, and it bests only the Ram 1500 when it comes to towing a trailer. The Tundra also lacks the diversity of configurations you’ll find at the Chevy, Ford, and Ram stores.

Verdict: When you talk to longtime Tundra owners and recent converts, the common theme is reliability. We can’t tell you if the current third-generation Tundra is reliable after many years of service, but Toyotas are well-known for their dependability. So, if you like the 2024 Toyota Tundra and it can serve your needs, help it to pull up a chair to the big boy's truck table.

Ram HD trucks, such as the 2500 and the 3500, may be expensive, but they're invaluable to the owners who need their immense capability. There’s a Ram truck to match the needs of every heavy-duty truck buyer, from off-roaders to camping enthusiasts and those who make their living hauling loads across the country.

Verdict: The latest Ram 2500 represents a meaningful upgrade to one of America’s most capable trucks, continuing to impress with ever-increasing levels of luxury and refinement. And did we mention its 1,075 pound-feet of torque?
