New Ram HDs in 2027 or 2028

You mean 4th gen still lol
Right? The 2010 - 2026 HD are all 4th gen trucks. Generally speaking, cab and chassis changes determine generations. There can be several engine changes/updates within a generation. For example, the 3rd gen Ram had two engines (5.9L and 6.7L). I think I have this correct:

1st gen (1981 - 1993), 12 years
2nd gen (1994 - 2002), 8 years
3rd gen (2002 - 2009), 7 years
4th gen (2009 - present), 17 years
5th gen (2019 - present) 1500 (DT) only, 7 years

Always get a kick out of folks adamantly calling them 5th or even 6th gen (The FB groups are the best)…. You want me to trust your knowledge on something when you can’t even label it correctly, smh.

The Diesel guys online are the worst at this because they want to call the 19-24 engines 5th gen and the 25+ 6th gen.

Ok, but the Hemi hasn't changed so now what do we call this truck?

TBH, if RAM would have at least updated the engine sales codes for the changes, we could use that designation like normal human beings would (think GM motors)... But NO, the code for the HO engine has remained ETM.
