- What the hell were RAM thinking?
In this episode of Patriot Games we take a road trip with Justin as he tests and reviews the RAM TRX 1500 after owning it for 6 months. This thing is bonkers. 6.2L Supercharge HEMI Hellcat delivering 702hp straight from the factory! Oh and let's give it a Baja mode!
We've driven some amazing cars before, but the TRX is on a whole other level. Every kid had a supercar poster on their walls back in the day, and that's exactly what this is; a supercar.

This guy can drive! Thanks for not driving it like a grandma and sending it!!!😊
I will own a Trx. I owned every generation ran, other than 1st. Hemi, and cummins. I've modded and gone through every single one. Currently own a 2019 1500. I drive it like it's a trx, but I've driven every truck that way. I will own a trx.
The truck Aussies love to hate and yet there's a 5 year waiting list. Gotta love how much people complain about the American trucks, but they pay really high prices to have them. 😂
facts
Love mine best truck I have owned especially for pulling my large enclosed trailer
My family has always owned Dodge/Chrysler products. We've had pretty much every generation of Ram. We use them for construction and heavy hauling. Dodge has always made incredible work horses. Especially when it comes to the quality of their engines.
As an American, tearing across the Outback in one of these sounds like a dream
My absolute dream car I’ve been dreaming of owning one of these since they started hitting our shores love it.
After 30 years being in Storage.. I recomissioned my 1981 suzuki..
So i went on the way to my favorite trails..
Only to Find they have been torn to shreds by these.. mummy i have Small Penis..
Wanker boxes.. all the tracks, that i drove on in the 80's.. that where flat..
Now have Huge Ruts you wankers, are ripping Australia to Shreds..
This Thing? is another, Mummy I have A small penis Wank..
My Suzuki can go anywhere this shitbox goes, uses less fuel..
And Does Less Damage.. 4x4 isExploring.. Not Destroying..
Yet another.. Mummy i have small penis 4x4..
All you need is a Suzuki, swag, and duel battery setup, fridge..
Not this trail destroying crap..
Recent trip in Suzy, went to Fav track around mount warning, it now has duvets that would swallow a Commodore.. completely destroyed by These wankers..
No Raptors were harmed hehe.
The three lights that you see at 5:08 are ID lights required by US DOT due to the vehicle being wider than 80 inches.
I love mine, never gets old.The roar of that supercharger and engine is very addictive.
how’d you afford it? 300k here in Aus my gosh
And than go off-road
Sick ! 👍Any recreational park tracks for sxs buggies in Australia ???????

@Animals&Cars Jesus that is insane its 150k in Canada (20k) over msrp most dealers that have want for it unless you want to order and wait over a year ... between the year long wait and the added fuel cost still on the wall, have a 500hp camaro and I don't know why I'm looking at this "for the utility" which I can get out of a 50k truck... having options is my weakness need to revert to being a monk.
I had a Raptor 6.2 which was an extremely capable truck but that TRX looks like its in a different league ❤
Yeah the TRX looks ridiculously mean/angry... TRX Definitely beats the Raptor in the look category!
I have a GC TRX as well and I agree, it's probably the most impressive possession I've ever owned. Absolute beast! I love it!
I second that. Love mine!
what's a GC TRX? Is that different from a regular one??
@@THESLlCKpaint color, Granite Crystal. Love my TRX, have a Billet Silver
Great car. Thank god the 2nd hand market had settled now.
when you finished by saying (and I'm paraphrasing) "if this had existed 30 years ago, it'd be your pinup car" I completely agree... for years my bucket list would have included some sort of italian hypercar for fun and a big US truck for function... now - a TRX does both. Props to you bro that thing is the bees knees, and I'm jelly as cruisin' around in my prado ;)
Omg! It's even a right hand drive ❤
The wrong way to drive
Absolutely in love with this truck thanks to you guys 1000%
Lmao can’t help but smile through the whole video. About time you got your self one Very happy for you and looking forward to seeing the abuse you put that beast through
Grab one yourself.
Thanks for showing my TRX on car sales… I love it and believe everything you say about it.
Brilliant truck
absolutely love this rig
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Justin, you review cars really well and make it enjoyable, would love to see more from you
👊
It looks amazing! Have fun! Drive safe😁👍
Wow! Awesome truck
you have to love the people that will think outside the box look down and find their balls and build something to match
love it! dude you can drive really well, that's for real! enjoy it legend
What an absolute WEAPON!!! You guys and Gals have outdone yourselves this time!! Best looking TRX in the world by far!
(If the missus would let me, I'd sell the house for one of these :) )
Looking f
Cheers team. Mad respect from New Zealand
Welcome back Justin MONTISALVO 🙏 Regards from Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬
The Dodge Ram TRX sounds great. Looks like you were enjoying your day there? What next? A Dodge Ram race truck for rallies?
Just purchased 2024 TRX. one of the last ones being made. Serious truck.
Great Review
Great review love my 2022 level 1 TRX
👊
What a Game Changer...beast mode...fck yea.
At least he's using the vehicle as intended, loved seeing the dings in the thing because nothing's worse than someone that has a supercar and doesn't actually run it. I'd have liked to see the video when Justin had to get on his knees and beg Sarah to get one.
Justin, I have a 2006 and a 2018 ram 1500 and they both have Dana 60 axles. We’ll actually they are Chrysler 9.25” which is/was Rams equivalent to a D60. The TRX from what I have seen from other UA-cam videos is a Dana 80 like the Ram HD trucks, but it has been customized for higher ground clearance and to accommodate those beastly shocks. I live in south Florida and guys are driving these around instead of lambo’s now. I love it!
Awesome!!!
Hell yeah 😎
This truck is crazy I have seen it in person just out of miles
Passionate review. Love ut the TRX is a concept on a sheet of paper that made it to production... had to watch that video again. What's the max towing trailer weight with it?
Long waited review
Have you considered Icon Rebound Pro wheels? It is a interlocking wheel BETTER than bead lock even below 10 PSI. Thanks to you I got a Brown Davis tank for my TrailBoss, thanks for sharing your amazing life with us!
As Per Stellantis Media release Torque split Front / Rear Auto 40/60 , Sport 30/70 , Snow 45/55 , Tow 45/55 , Rock 50/50(4Lo) , Baja 25/75
Awesome
That's off its head..art luver
Quite surprised with the pricing over there - there's about 10 on TradeMe in NZ ranging between $230-250k NZD. Thought they'd be a bit less/more common in OZ!
bonjour magnifique véhicule et superbe présentation de véhicule merci de ce partage cordialement
Can’t help but to think this through the whole video
“Wow you can read the brochure”
Would love to own one
Yet another.. Mummy i have small penis 4x4..
All you need is a Suzuki, swag, and duel battery setup, fridge..
Not this trail destroying crap..
Recent trip in Suzy, went to Fav track around mount warning, it now has duvets that would swallow a Commodore.. completely destroyed by These wankers..
Justin should do the Dirt drags at The Springs 4wd park next year for the Hardkorr weekend
Now that’s a man’s truck dang !!!!
What an epic truck,lol might have a chance taking the win at finke.😉😉😉
0:23 so it's already plowed and now it's just time to plant the potatoes 🙂
I was just looking for something like this 😂
440 big block. Well it was
Not a bad way to spend 250k
Lol yes it is 🤦🏼♂️
And a stand alone fuel management system, not a bad way to spend 10 thousand dollars.
Probably over 300k with accessories. God knows why 702 hp wasn't enough
It's not that expensive
And no the truck doasnt cost 220k
Can you put the wrap info on here , I just bought one the same color , that wrap has improved the color 100%
B.A.!!!!
stupid question would you put a pcor tray on it to give it that patriot style look I think it would look mint and also give us the list of speeding finds you get hahah :D
TRX gets me hyper everyday. And street racing get me hyper
Just bought one of these, When are we getting the update on your rig?
Was your TRX RHD stock? I have a LHD one in the US but might take it with me to a RHD country
This is just Ram's version of a Baja race truck. The design team probably saw desert racers and said "Let's build one of those".
Better than a Lamborghini👍🏾
I drove 2 TRX ignition edition sand my Traxxas Sledge is haunting after it. Traxxas sledge vs 2022 Dodge Ram 1500 TRX Ignition Edition, ignition orange with 702hp
I heard the Aussie accent, then I seen the Right hand drive xD minty bud
Yea awesome aggressive truck , cool n slick but get a radiator fan on there quick cos there is not a lot of air intake through the grill
If you guys did a series on the new Ford ranger raptor...would love to see that...
Love mine
I daily drive a ram trx here in the states. I don’t know if I can ever drive a different truck now
Like your shirt
Don’t blow it up Justin 😂😂👍
My birthday is 4/84! It's a sign! :)
Right, I’m getting one…
These are $80k in the US.
Plus shipping,compliance,rhd conversion,gst and dollar difference.
@@robertremkes5588 Exactly! Surprised anyone can afford them at that price.
How’s it go in city traffic 😂 well done mate
i have heard that the rhd steering conversion is very clunky. any truth to that?
They were thinking "how can we compete against Ford" Ford did it first with the raptor gen1but the RAM 🐏 is awesome so happy for you
I personaly hated Rams but this is a TRX beast...even i was smiling at the specs and with the cosmetic mods looks so nice ""excuse me mir bank manager, can i have $200,000 interest free".
sick..
The 79 boys will be up in arms about u saying this mate
as a 79 owner… we should rejoice the V8 monsters… all the EVs can go to hell 😂
F-150 Raptor R vs Ram TRX
The R beats the trx in early drags
RAM TREX
@@aussieadventurestimetoplay that's because of the rear gear ratio..and the TREX driver probably wasn't using launch control properly
V6 vs v8
@@mike4769 the raptor R has the 5.2 L supercharged GT 500 engine in it
They come in RHD down under? 😮
This has to be the first one that didn’t have that factory roll bar in the bed.
Nice.couple of things auto needs a lock kit so u can hold it, instead of it hunting for gears, and some cars have paddle shifters that are solus on the stem instead of trying to change when Ur turning the wheel awkward.switches on the steering wheel next😮😮
Ohhh Justin , fml 🤦♂️ I’m cancelling the ranger raptor and I’m getting this big bit#*
lookin at trucks and found an upside down guy who's a patriot.
Will You add up a winch?
Bush pin stripe potential on Aussie tracks 12 out of 10.
❤
Somehow we need to convince them to make another generation, even though nobody can afford to buy one
Should say thanks to the raptor in 2011 it changed the truck off road world .
🔥🔥👍👍
Fantastic wish I had the coin. Ha
I really hoped that the havoc edition came with an optional rwd option but unfortunately they didnt only thing that would make the TRX more menacing. Its a sweet hyper truck
You can probably unbolt the front drive shaft, then ya got a rwd 700 hp ram TRX. Not very mechanically sympathetic but who care, you can rip the maddest skids in a ram 1500
Or just tune out the front engagement like the chargers
They would have to upgrade the Dana 60 rear end to run it in 2wd. The power output of the engine is too close to the maximum that the Dana 60 can handle. That is why the Dana 60 is only used as a front axle on the HD diesels.
211, 1.1k, 56k all Eleven's lol. Seeing lots of 11's, Bday is on the 11th lol.
Magnafuel ProTuner 750 2000hp Inline Fuel Pump MP-4303.
That's a truck!
Cant see that driving in & out or a woollies carpark.
Can we get an update video on this truck in 2024?! I want one so bad !
it's still an absolute beast!
@@PatriotGames yes! thank you for sharing man, great content!
What’s the conversion like and steering feel ?
Perfect 👌🏼
2.3 liter blower the Challenger Red-eyes have a 2.7 liter blower
Non-RAM owners always ask me if my 2019 Ram Rebel is a TRX 😂. I guess because I have a vararam CIA and I'm running a Borla Atak exaust, they think it sounds like one 😂
КРУТО !
"What were they thinking?!" - *Let's do whatever Ford does, then try to make it Dodge*. Without any doubt lol.
