The 2021 Ram 2500 Big Horn and the 2021 Toyota Tundra SR5 both offer standard gas-powered V8 engines. Though these motors are capable, some drivers may need a different option if they want more torque or better efficiency. Only one of these trucks stands out when it comes to additional engine choices.Â

Both of the 2500 Big Horn's engines can outperform the Tundra's V8. The RAM's HEMI brings a lot of power, but it also has fuel-saving features - such as the Multi-Displacement System (MDS), which optimises energy output when cruising.
On the other hand, if you are purchasing your truck for pulling a trailer, Big Horn's diesel option is the obvious choice. It delivers 850 lb-ft of torque, which lets you tow up to 9,072 kg. Features, such as the upgraded filtration system, also limit the maintenance requirements and repair needs of this RAM motor - providing a more effective highway experience.
