    "Doesn't get squirrelly." You are absolutely correct. I've had my TRX for about 3 weeks and 1000 miles now. I traded a Trackhawk for it. Although the Trackhawk was much faster, it tried to kill me a few times. You absolutely can't accelerate and steer, even modestly, in a Trackhawk. The TRX, by comparison, is solid as a rock. FAST and predictable.

    I had heads-up display in my 97 Grand Prix. It took a few days to get used to, but after that it was so natural. I always knew my speed, radio station, important info, without ever having to take my eyes off the road or even think about it. I'm surprised it hasn't caught on more. I agree, every vehicle should have it.

    Hi, I have been driving a 2019 ford raptor for about a year now and completely love it, my only complain is that it isnt a V8. I currently have my name on a trx that should be here in a month, if I get it I will not be able to get the redesigned raptor when it comes out. I will most likely have the trx for a year and get the new raptor a year later. Do you think I am making the right choice switching to the trx for a year, or should I stick with my raptor until the redesigned one comes out?

      So far I would say TRX still has to play catch up. Ford Raptor did run Baja 1000 race in Stock Body Division class and finished it with 3rd place. Only thing that was done to it from factory floor was to put RollCage, Metal gas tank and they adjusted factory shocks for added weight of rollcage and new gas tank. Until TRX runs the same race and finishes with better time then Raptor ... I say Ford doesnt have to catch up.

      Joe, I agree. Ford is updating the F150 for 2021 and is a great truck, but the current Raptor is really being stepped on by the TRX. I am sure the next Raptor will be great.
      GM is way behind. The GM-Hummer will be a very nice vehicle in a couple of years.

    • @SRTifiedRAM
      @SRTifiedRAM 4 роки тому +5

      The speedometer goes from around 77 km/h to about 90 km/h. Additionally, the RPM’s were held over 4,000 for a brief second because the transmission was prepared for the driver to get back into heavy throttle; being higher in the power band to accelerate quicker.
      Ordinarily in vehicles, when you press the gas pedal enough for the transmission to downshift and you let off the throttle, the RPM’s will then immediately drop; losing the power band quicker. Here in the TRX, the transmission is specifically tuned to hold the higher RPM for ‘x’ amount of time after you let off the throttle; thus keeping you higher in the power band and delivering quicker acceleration if the driver were to get back into heavy throttle.

    Excited to see the TRX at the Baja 1000. Got some proving to do. One serious negative (900 lbs carry capacity), crap that’s 4 decent sized guys and a small cooler. Go fast on the highway great, but the real test of an off road is performing some of the big races. Gonna give Ram some kudos for stuffing the engine in to force Ford to step up their game. You guys all know it’s coming. While Ford has held the top slot in performance they are gonna have to spank Ram pretty quick.
