RHO reliability

[AnotherPOSRHO]

I am looking at picking up a 2026 level one RHO. There seems to be a lot of talk of all the issues and problems people have been having with their 2025 and 2026 trucks.

Can anyone share some good reviews on this truck. Has anyone put a good amount of miles on theirs with no issues at all.

Is it worth picking the truck up, or should I stay away from it due to the reliability issues?

Thanks

Personally I would stay away, I bought a 2025 last year and sat at the dealer for 5 months and they bought it back. Bought a 2026 in February and after several dealer visits vibration issues, charging system issues, check engine, gauge cluster, paint issues, the list goes on. Finally gave up and traded this weekend before the resale dropped due to all the discounts out there. Sadly there aren't many reliable options these days but I've yet to have a vehicle with this many on two different model years.

I picked up my ‘26 level 1 Canyon Lake in January. 5000 miles so far and it has been perfect. 4.5 seconds 0-60 routinely. Really surprised me off-road with its capabilities. My buddy with a Raptor R wants to get one as the interior on the Ram is far superior. He keeps having excuses not to race me even though I’m sure he would pull away after he gets traction.

Race with a Raptor R would be no contest. He'd dust you

Love my 25, almost 8k miles in the first year and my fav vehicle purchase.

RHO does low 4 something 0-60 vs high 3s in the R, not a massive gap but still losing haha

Seems like a fine comparison to me

Sooooo…..since we are doing that, how about a Raptor R vs. 2026 Corvette ZR1X. He’d make you look like the little old lady in a Subaru.

We took 3 RHO’s to Baja last November. Covered 1000 miles with nearly half of those being off-road. They did great. One flat tire and one pinched wheel speed sensor harness was the extent of our mechanicals. We’re doing it again this November but heading all the way to Cabo. No concerns with reliability
