Ram knows exactly what their customers want.
Excited about the upcoming Raptor R but the TRX still has my heart … considering purchasing one before that V8 becomes extinct. Such an incredible truck.
The Raptor R is a joke. Ford should’ve crushed the TRX, but they chose to neuter it yet again.
Can't wait to drive the Raptor R to compare
@@scarroll625 Theyre not going to go over the TRX cause Ram and stellantis will just find a way to put the redeye engine on it and still be ahead. Although the raptor’s suspension is still ahead of the TRX.
@@gabem3878 maybe, but 90% of TRX/Raptor owners won’t actually use that suspension for its intended purpose anyway. They should’ve just made it AT LEAST 750 hp just to one-up Ram.
@@scarroll625 I agree! I dont think Ford wanted to crush RAM with the horsepower number in the first place because the 37s alone would slow down the raptor even if its lighter in comparison. Ford intended to give the people what they want and thats the supercharged v8.
I have a 2022 TRX, and if you put the suspension in sport, its still a comfortable ride, but eliminates that “bounce” in the other modes and is more planted without being harsh.
Good to know! Thanks for that feedback as an owner
Does the custom mode allow you to set each parameter individually like in the other SRT products?
Same I have one to but they stole it unfortunately 😢
The most interesting American vehicles are the trucks they make and they have been doing amazing over the years
and i feel like this is the best one ever . So good
that supercharger whine is so satisfying
Hey nice video. 2021 Trx owner here. I daily it and love it. I’ve never really noticed the bounciness you’re speaking of but I just use auto and sport mode. I never use the driveway anymore, rather enjoy driving fast through my yard up to the back of the house like I’m some sort of “real off road guy“. Lol
Do you actually d that
@@mergat2970 Absolutely 😃 The AWD actually does well even uphill on wet grass!😆
How much do you pay in gas in a weekly, and monthly basis? @leonardrice2830
RAM has done a great job with this truck !! The best on the market in my opinion !
Cough power wagon
@@LetsGoRangers-xn1hh cough Trx
@@candidozotelo941 cough I got a winch
@@candidozotelo941 cough don’t got dumb air suspension
@@LetsGoRangers-xn1hh cough the TRX doesn’t have air suspension it’s got long travel bilstein gas shocks. TRX>Power Wagon
Miles, I agree. The interior of the TRX is nicer. I like both the TRX and the Raptor. Great video!!! Thanks you!
Glad you enjoyed the video!
I love that truck, incredible video brother ❤️🥲
Glad you liked it!
Tried to get one but dealers were asking 20k markup, so I bought a Ram 1500 Limited Ecodiesel fully loaded instead.
rather have trx anyday
@@atstr5581 rather pay for the value of the vehicle, not give my money to the stealerships pocket.
@@atstr5581 20k mark up tho ? No…
🎉
Should’ve went to ford lol
I couldn’t imagine driving this in Orange County where parking lots are designed for cars the size of a Prius
You have to park pretty far away
Been waiting for this video forever my friends thank you. Also ive been wanting to ask where your vids take place. Most of the time the scenery is amazing
Glad I could deliver this one for you! I'm in SoCal
@@MilesPerHr thank you men i appreciate you.🙏
This truck is the ruler on the road
Almost bought a base TRX, but the markups changed our mind. So we bought a new loaded Laramie instead. Incredible truck all the same.
Parents did the same pre-pandemic. Priced out a Taco, fully loaded 10k less than a decently specd 1500. They spent the extra 10k for the ram, based on what you got truck wise for the price.
May be a moot point, however there are dealers offering substantial rebates on TRXs. If they aren’t local to you, the savings is well worth traveling or having it shipped. As an example, Dan Cummins CDJR is offering 4% below invoice pricing for TRXs, ask for Miles Goff or Devin Arnold if interested. Either way, you wound up with a killer truck!
These videos are great they seem very un biased and he says it how it actually is
this truck is the best i have a toy t. rex and i bring it on my trx when i go somewhere amazing sounds :)
What a beast 😍
This is Such an Amazing truck I pray I get to own one someday 😢
I like how you waited to beep for the dog walking, lol nice
Awesome!
I love your videos! I support you
Thank you!
@@MilesPerHr You're very welcome 😁😁
I just picked up a TRX and I saw this on my recommended list😂
It's a supercharged 700hp 6500+lb 37" tire 4x4 truck with heavy duty parts with the aerodynamic properties of a brick. Nothing about this truck says 400miles on a single tank, yet the bigger named auto and youtube auto journalist say it's the peak show off of American excessiveness. Nothing about anything from Dodge/Ram of the last decade has said anything other than, you're going to be smiling laughing and having just as much fun for less than the competition. If you want to be seen as "saving the world" buy a Prius, because they were marketed just for that.
Emphasis on "SEEN AS saving the planet". They mine the lithium and cobalt in Canada, they ship it off to Norway where they make batteries out of them, then they ship it off to Japan/ USA/ Germany / Great Britain/ Czech Republic / etc. to build those batteries into the cars.
You mean 35` tires
@@whotf888 Dont forget that it is mined mostly illegaly. Charging infrastructures and factories made lot of carbon than they will ever save. Its about control. Not saving the planet.
Clown
As a truck loving nerd myself, I have no rights to call you a truck nerd.
Never noticed the bounce your talking about, but it’s still a great truck imo
Спасибо за видео. Обожаю TRX
I really like this and the Raptor R. Haven’t had long term exposure to either, but would love to.
Maybe you'll get to detail one - better yet, drive one!
@@MilesPerHr driving would be cool, but detailing one would be the sickest. It’s kinda how I get to know a vehicle.
This and the Power Wagon are the GOAT 🔥
Power Wagon review coming soon too!
I’m on the fence on what to buy. Power Wagon or TRX?!?!
Великолепный автомобиль! Браво американским инженерам!
The superchargerrrrrrrrrr
The best truck I ever seen 🔥
Dream truck fr
Southern California and we got Milers per hour here, with the best car reviews. I also live in socal so it’s great to see cars we also own dodge cars srt
Thank you for the encouragement!
It's fast that's about it, I just love the raptor driven on really rugged country.
Did u open the coolers in the back for board under the mat
that supercharger whine is so satisfying. Великолепный автомобиль! Браво американским инженерам!.
Wow what a car. Also where are you driving?
My dream car
I love this car 😊
I ended up opting for the ford raptor R. Just have always been a ford guy 😅
Just watched both this video and the Raptor R video. Your POV narrative and familiarity of the truck’s options are impressive. Plus you can drive, which is nice.
In the end, I would pay the extra for the Raptor R, preferring the more natural guttural sound of the Raptor vs the TRX supercharger whine.
Excellent reviews. I subscribed after watching. Thx
And also the raptor didn't get a flat tire from a little doughnut
better power steering and turn radius too
Digital rear view mirror? That's a first. Another dope truck that i'll never afford lol
I been looking for an orange TRX level 2 found 1 about 3 months ago not disappointed at all traded in My 2020 1320 challenger and My 15 Ram orange ignition for it
My loyalty now lies with the trex all the way
This is my dream car I’ll never be able to afford one 😢I can only stare and observe
There is no doubts that it’s dinosaur! 😎
Tremenda pick-up
I have a charger hellcat jailbreak and it’s fun to drive it
You forgot the two large storage bins under the rear floor mats. But good job.
Raptor and Ram, love them both but im going with R.
You missed the MOST important FUN mode man, Sport Mode :D
Don’t judge it what I’m about to ask, but, it’s possible to make the supercharger silencer? I absolutely love the TRX design, interior and exterior, but the wine noise, I hate it. Gt500 and corvette’s superchargers are quieter than hellcats’s and I like those.
Until when will jailbreak be available?
dam, that truck is like a true dinosaur 😎
They're gonna have to come up with a deluxe version with better suspension and put in the redeye moter with 900hp to compete with the raptor r
4.2 in a half ton wow
I hold a sturdy block of wood un the truck for when i need to use the jack
12mpg, gotta love that. That's expensive even if it were 2015 and US fuel was free.
22:14 weeee 😂😂😂
nice video, nice car.
Dancing with a dinosaur hahaha...well said.
Men the way you drive i feel like you're going to hit something on the side because of that wide truck XD
I have a white one costed like almost 92,000 out of all the trucks I had the trx is the fastest
I got the same color Trx and 2022 exact same
Raptor R❤
WHY THE TPMS LIGHT was on ?
I drive in Custom or Sport. I don’t like the softness of suspension in street mode.🤔
Sueeeeede!
Sweeede
The raptor is the king of the mountains
How do people make the lights flicker?
All LEDs flicker on camera, it's not visible to the human eye
They don't flicker in person. It's the light frequency captured by the camera
12+! 👍🔥🚀
😎😎😎
so you american truly love cup holder !
the whine😭😭😭
The AC in my TRX blows super cold. That one may have issues.
How much u pay of gas every days?
💯
What's it good for ,shopping truck, I seen it get stuck quite a few times and over on a few different videos, especially in mud flats. This truck is not like the raptor on muddy flats and extreme 4 wheel drive off roading. I cant find a vdio like the raptor on desert road and high rugged hill country. I like a truck for all works.
I'm on my 3rd Ram, a 5.7 Hemi (probably my last given where Fiat and Stellantis have gone with the brand), and I really love that they came out with the TRX. It's a beautiful truck (except for the grille). But I have to say, I DESPISE the transmission they put on it. Why make an enthusiast/performance truck and pair it with a minivan transmission? It's idiotic. I have the same transmission in my Ram and I absolutely hate it. It's the single worst thing about my truck.
The TRX...D E S E R V E D...a manual transmission. And the 1986 Ford Taurus shifter in the center console makes me nauseous every time I see it. To be fair, Ford is guilty of the same thing with the Raptor, but that's no excuse for Dodge/Ram to follow them. I've been a Mopar fan for as long as I can remember, so seeing this makes me both angry and sick at the same time. I truly would've loved to own a TRX, but, despite it being grossly overpriced, I wouldn't be able to stomach driving it with that ridiculous transmission. And there's no MDS on the TRX, so they can't even try to gaslight people about the manual being less efficient, or not being able to handle the power, or any of the other BS/drivel they spew whenever anyone asks them for a manual transmission.
Thanks for the excellent review, as always, Miles. Please pardon my utter disappointment and absolute disgust regarding what could have been an amazing truck.
I mean, they even f**ked up the freaking flappy paddles on the steering wheel. Just....aaaaaargh!!!
I guess if I had 4 mil I’d buy one
So you didn't get in trouble over the tire
U know the seats recline in the back
This monster over a raptor anyday of the week
How many USBs/phone chargers do you need jeez 😂
Like the raptor more
Trippin
11:37 imagine being the audi guy
I'm a little bit curious... Who lets you test drive these cars like this? lol... Cause you really test their capabilities without holding back. And sometimes go through deep water and mud. Do you just return them and say, "welp, sorry. Thanks so much, bye!"? hahaha
honestly dont see how people prefer this over the raptor r. Ofcourse i havent driven any, but apart from that, i much prefer the raptor r. (disregarding the price)
👍👍👍
Naturally Aries are meant to make you happy . The ram trx is the aries of truck ... just fuel ⛽️ and go ooooo !!!!!
Sungguh sangat disayangkan,mobil ini tidak dijual di indonesia😐
Driving it off road like that will have the dash and the rest of the truck rattling like a 90's camaro...
anyone catch the angry toyota in the side mirrors
Ram claims 4.5 seconds, yet they lied a little bit, it does it it under 4 seconds with a perfect launch
A truck getting 10mpg isn't anything new. Back in the 1970's a buddy had a one ton with a 454 for pulling horse trailers. He got 10mpg empty or loaded..
❤
Swede??
I don’t know if it’s just me that thinks this way, but for me, the TRX doesn’t look menacing without the rambar.
I would take a cheap spec ford raptor r over this trx . Raptor r is alot more every day and better aftermarket parts for the future
I think they raptor r is gonna be too expensive
Thanks for doing your face reveal
