Big Surprise: The Hemi V-8 Ram 1500 Is Explosively Popular

It's never easy to admit a mistake, but that's what Ram CEO Tim Kuniskis did last month. The brand had dropped the Hemi V-8 engine from the 1500 with the 2025 revamp, which some buyers didn't like. Ram is rectifying that error for 2026, and it appears customers are eager for the engine's return. The automaker said that it had received over 10,000 orders for the Hemi-powered 1500 within the first 24 hours after announcing its return . Kuniskis said in Stellantis's second-quarter sales results that the brand is already seeing 'consumer interest spurred by the return of the Hemi V-8.' Photo by: Ram Hemi Availability Ram said the V-8-powered 1500 will go on sale this summer, each one wearing a special " Symbol of Protest " badge. The 5.7-liter engine makes 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque, as it did before, while featuring the same eTorque hybrid system. This was one way Ram could speed the development and get the truck on sale as quickly as possible. The engine is an optional upgrade for the 2026 1500, which costs up to $1,200 on trucks equipped with the standard engine. Ram is offering the V-8 in Tradesman, Big Horn, Express, Warlock, Laramie, Limited, and Longhorn trims to start, with the Rebel arriving later. The V-8 is a free upgrade on the Limited and Longhorn, which comes standard with the high-output 3.0-liter inline-six high-output engine. What Comes Next Back in April, Kuniskis said Ram had 25 product launches scheduled for the next 18 months, and this is one of the first. The brand is also returning to NASCAR. However, it's unclear what Ram will launch next. There are rumors the TRX could return in 2026 . And with the announcement that Stellantis is reviving SRT , it seems like anything and everything is back on the table, even passenger vans .

Energy Stock Could Rally Back Toward Record Highs

Natural gas giant EQT (EQT) is trading 0.3% higher at $55.87, struggling to recover from a recent pullback from its June 23 record peak of $61.02. The shares are enjoying a floor of support from the formerly resistant $55 level, with a historically bullish trendline just below. While the equity remains up 22% this year, another overdue boost could be looming. Per Schaeffer's Senior Quantitative Analyst Rocky White, EQT is within one standard deviation of its 50-day moving average. EQT was higher than this this trendline in at least eight of the last 10 trading days and spent 80% of the last two months above it. Within these parameters, 12 other signals occurred in the past five years, after which the equity was higher one month later 67% of the time, averaging a 5.5% pop. A move of comparable magnitude would place EQT back near $60 -- within a chip-shot of its record high. Now looks like a good time to weigh in with options, too. EQT's Schaeffer's Volatility Index (SVI) of 34% ranks in the 12th percentile of its annual range, meaning options traders are pricing in low volatility expectations.
