26: TEXAS TRUCK RODEO, 2500 RAM REBEL AND EVS, REALLY?

EV Channels Review

The Texas Truck Podcast crew dives into their experiences at the Texas Truck Rodeo, highlighting the event's move to a new, more suitable venue at Eagles Canyon Raceway. They discuss the challenges of modern traffic flow and EV adoption, with one host expressing frustration over inefficient traffic light systems and train crossings hindering EV efficiency. The main focus, however, is on the vehicles tested at the rodeo. While impressed by the capabilities of many trucks and SUVs, including the Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro and the Ram 2500 Rebel diesel, they note that some manufacturers opted out of the competition. The Ram 2500 Rebel diesel emerges as a personal favorite for its comfortable ride, capable looks, and the charming nature of its Cummins engine, despite the ongoing debate about diesel's practicality for non-towing use. The Subaru Forester Wilderness also surprisingly impressed with its off-road capability.
