#Flats #ram #trx #pickup #newcar
Normally I’d say a truck owner is compensating for something but Flats is a unit and needs a unit of a vehicle
That’s a pretty small-minded view of vehicles
@@michaeljcaboose1152 not even most pickup truck drivers nowadays arent blue collar workers or ATV and motorcycle guys and need a large bed for some tool and vehicle hauling capability most of them buy it for the prestige nowadays cuz theyre expensive, sure a niche amount of people actually use them for the intended purposes maybe like 55-65 percent of people but alot of people also just get them cuz theyre big and loud
Ya I'd say dudes with really lifted trucks for no reason are compensating but just everyone who drives a truck in general that's stupid
@@FriskierOrb14 Do you know if they use their lifted truck as their intended purpose or is that your assumption from a first glance. Seems like a pretty insecure thing to say someones compensating something just because of a vehicles size or model.
@@michaeljcaboose1152 exactly haha! Imagine judging people's choice of cars, let people buy what they want after all it's their money lmao 👍
That's a badass truck, guaranteed smiles for miles. Really happy for flats.
Having just bought my dream truck, I salute you my friend. I got a Gladiator Mojave which has nowhere near the power of the TRX but I love it. There's something so damn cool about owning something you love. Makes the monthly payments feel worth it.
Honestly I respect the gladiators, I have '99 Tacoma and the gladiators are one of the only genuinely small body on frame trucks with decent clearance on the market right now, even the new ranger is bloated and annoying to park.
@@soupcansam75 not to mention I believe it's the only midsize truck with a solid front and rear axle. It's kinda funny that I was actually looking up get a Tacoma or maybe even the F150 Lightning. But we rented a Wrangler for a family trip and I fell in love. Did a little research and knew I wanted the Mojave trim over the Rubicon because of the suspension. Found the one I have listed online and instantly knew that was the one. Don't regret the purchase at all.
Lmao, see a giant ram TRX
"Hahaha compensating for something?"
_Twelve Foot Tall Flats emerges_
Thats a nice truck, hope you have a lot of great memories with it Flats.
If you live in New England, trucks are a must. Winter alone, mud season additional.
They had the pedals defaulted for short people because most of those trucks are bought by short dudes compensating.
Just be careful with that sort of vehicle. Chrysler is notorious for electrical and transmission issues with their higher end stuff. Their engines are pretty good for the most part, but anything this high output has a ton of higher priced maintenance needed.
You said you have buyers' remorse; My advice on this is that you don't need all the extra performance options on this and they will be a major headache if you don't have a background in mechanic work, or a family member you can trust with one. The cost and stress involved of these higher performance vehicles is ridiculous and not usually offset even when someone has a use case that can take advantage of it. So here's the advice, you could probably sell it for above what you paid for it, and turn around and pick up another Ram truck or something similar that will fit the image you want and your actual uses, but for a whole 25-75k less depending on your trim levels, even more if you're willing to take a very lightly used one from 2021 or 2022.
Source: background in cars in general. Working on em, keeping em, all sorts of performance variation. I've had two cars that ran under 11s 1/4s as daily drivers, and a performance offroad vehicle in the form of a restored CJ-7.
My 4 coolest cars have all given me a lot of joy, but literally EVERY ONE of them and probably the next 3-4 on my top ten have all required me to have a reliable daily driver to use while they're in the shop for weeks at a time. This is not hyperbole, I've literally had all of my performance rides in the shop for at least a month each at one time or more.
Basically, this sort of thing seems like a really cool idea until you have to use one everyday. It ain't worth it bro. If you want cool shit and speed, look into like late 2000s, early 2010s American sports and muscle. GTOs are cool as shit and were only made for 3 years and are increasing in value year over year, while being fun. Just a thought
I googled how the interior is... IT'S A FUCKING AEROPLANE!!! It has sooo many buttons and dials!!!! Such an awesome truck. Being from the UK it looks massive!!! Glad to see streaming has paid off for you flats over the year! Keep up the good work my guy!
I am not a car guy so maybe I am speaking out of turn but if the whole car lifts up when you accelerate that just seems like bad design. I recently bought an AWD EV and it accelerates fast enough that nearly everyone I have shown that car to grabs on to whatever they can find when I floor it as it flattens you back into your seat, but the reason I think it is so smooth is that the whole car moves as one. It doesn't feel uneven, you just go from not moving to like 50mph in a flash but it is very linear feeling for a lack of a better word. Based on your description of this truck it seems "lopsided" and scary feeling for the sake of feeling scary rather than actual power.
Flats dealership stories are so goated
W buy Flats. Perfect truck for a guy your stature (He's like 6'4" I believe)
Good tor flats, im glad OW2 has been good to you, ram has been overpricing their normal trucks, their their the most expensive of the big 3
And that’s why I want a tundra
As someone who drives 18 wheelers and owns a TRX, the pick up truck scares me more than the semi truck.
Really flats
Cmon
No fucking shot, i know exactly what dealership that is, i bought my company car there
If you need any idea of how much power a TRX has, watch Richard Hammond and his daughter drive one.
707HP V8 is a mad vehicle!
Love the truck, LOVE IT. and it’s a ram very underrated plus it’s cheaper these days!!
Congrats Flats, You deserve it!
i will never understand why some one will need a truck that expensive
Because it will be something that will last. Plus, Flats deserves it
just because something is expensive doesnt mean it will last, if you take care of something it will last @@calstar04 plus i never said he doesnt deserves it i think hes a good person so he should by what he wants doesnt mean i wont understand why they buy something that expensive
@@calstar04no. It won't last.
Dodges especially the newer models are known to not last as long as other trucks.
I'm all for people going out and buying whatever you want. It looks cool, it goes fast and you're going to have a ton of fun with it. But reliability is not on the list of things that truck or the company is known for.
Amd just to add 1 more point, being that expensive does not mean it will last at all. Nobody needs a truck that expensive if you're buying it because you think it will last. Amy toyota or Chevrolet truck will outlast that TRX and you can buy those for 40-60k.
Again. I'm not judging or anything like that, the TRX us a badass truck and a shitload of fun so im happy for him but if you're going to defend that purchase by saying "I needed to spend 80k on a truck because it'll last longer and be reliable" you're just wrong
@@Nortio i agree with you but take note of inflation and + all the packages (every package in this case) which are luxuries. Most vehicles will last a LONG time. But newer vehicles are more built to be disposable and still earn money from selling parts. As long you follow maintenance and adapt to use case and environment for said vehicle It will last as long as it is allowed to run. dodge. ford chevy toyota they all are built different but have good history. Don't take statistics from your local tweaker that never changes the oil till the damn thing starts making a weird noise or skips maintenance cause they can't be damned to change a 15 dollar sensor and runs tires till the chicken wire is exposed
@@calstar04Tundra will last a lifetime but Dodge? 💀
TRX? More like T-rex! That thing is huge! O_O;
I love it man you deserve it !
Only two types of people buy trucks. People that require a truck and people that don't.
I never understood why you had a Ridgeline.
I bought my first ram 1500 bighorn and I’m gonna be honest I’m envious of you 😂
Hell yeah brother I just got me a new challenger V8 5.7
I hope you have some runflats :p
Beautiful ride
A TRX is basically a Hellcat Pickup truck. It's CRAZY
I’m a Chevy guy but the TRX is very valid.
Wow, Flats, you got a mega deal from your Honda! Only losing $500 on a 3 year old Honda, wow. Love the new truck. I hope you get a lot of miles on it!!
Dodge Ram, official truck of drunk drivers
Should've gotten the Shelby instead smh. Nah but that's hella sick but I'd be terrified owning anything past 350hp
700 hp in a massive truck feels similar to 350 hp in a sports car
@@kernoleary1394 i think driving a 700hp that weighs almost 7000lbs and is just as quick than most sports cars acceleration is still a much scarier thing to drive
@touku3631 it's really not its quite a comfortable experience compared to sports cars
as a non american,whats the cost of these trucks?
Around 100k
Even normal pickups are stupid expensive
GOOD FOR YOU FLATS, CONGRATS!!!!!
The blind spots on modern American pickups make them extremely dangerous to pedestrians.
Money you got for the Honda you'll be dishing out in repair Bill's, gas and depreciation over the next few yrs
ya learned how to bargain from mama flats, always bargain for a better deal
If we’re going American, I’m normally a Ford guy, but TRXs are stunning. 702bhp of “RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸”
Just looked up the mileage. TRX gets 10 mpg in the city, 14 on the highway.
can't expect much for 710 hp
If you want better mileage with the same engine, Chargers get 21 highway. Sadly can't make a big v8 city-efficient without going HEV or disabling half the cylinders
TRX is my dream truck tbh
Smallest RAM owner
you got a TRX thats cool and obscenely pricey!! lmao
Congrats 😎
Really nice truck congrats! That and the Raptor Type R are legit
i work for roush, ford 100% wanted a piece of the TRX market 😂😂 love both of those trucks so much.
Flats got the truck equivalent of reinhardt im so proud
Love that for you
Mopar is based
YESSIRR!!!!! BIG TRX
What a beast
Tank main driving an almost literal tank. Bah ha ha ha ha!
I wish ❤Flats❤ been playing ❤Mauga❤ on ❤UA-cam❤ like if you wish too😢
I love story time
I'm super jealous lol
Yay more flats story's
Typical American got a giant luxury fake work truck but wont haul work equipment in it ever. Why??
That’s literally what im saying
It’s a trx it makes 707hp its not for work its for fun
why do people have sports cars that aren't daily driven? to keep miles low and to have to show off and for fun.
There was absolutely no reason for you to comment. If you only have negative things to say, keep it to yourself, no one cares for your insults
Dude, I can't even imagine the cost to keep filling up that gas guzzler. That's a good $100 a week easy
Ram???? When there's Chevy and Ford???
A bit of a pavement princess, but huge bossman dub nonetheless
He said he's gonna take it out in this very video lol
Watch out, this is one of the most stolen vehicles! Hellcat/trackhawk/TRX get stolen like crazy
good luck seeing any kids in that thing
You must drive like an absolute ass if you think that's going to be an issue.
Can we get a tour of it? Flats vlogger channel coming soon?
I know Dodge specifically has become one of the more reliable American car companies recently, but I've heard mixed things on RAM and other Stellantis brands. I think the TRX is more Dodge than RAM so hopefully it treats you good, It's a really cool car.
DUUUUUUUUUUUDE! CONGRATSSSSSS!!!!..... that fucker is gonna live forever, its REALLY relible... the only down side is fuel consumption, there rest is fucking perfect. Super reliable, super confortable, easy to use... people saying its too big are just dumb, its insanely easy to park... congrats again!
That’s because it is big? How are people dumb for stating what they see lmao
depends on who you are some people have much more experience with larger equipment and the trx is probably not as large to some people as it is others.@@o_Kishi
@@o_Kishiur an npc fr fr.
@@BackLever22 🤯🤯🤯🤯
@@o_Kishi i have a 2500 with a 1.5" lvling kit which is just, as high as the bed comes from factory, 100% just lvling the truck and its much bigger. The muscular design of the TRX makes it look bigger than it actually is but it still is a 1500... mine is bigger and is half way the range. Its not a big truck... at all. If u compare it with a CAR of course is big... but is not a big truck.
Niiice
So you bought a huge truck you’ll probably never use for taking anything big because you stream all the time. What’s with people buying these big ass trucks when they rarely use it for a trucks purpose
its fucking cool
@@ObeseManatee420It’s just a truck
yeah bro and collectibles are just pieces of plastic and tv shows are just pieces of media doesn't mean people can't think they are fucking awesome. @@o_Kishi
it’s a trx it makes 707hp its a fun truck not a work truck
@@ObeseManatee420it's a child killer
W TRUCK
Pretty sure im shadow banned on youtube comments but if u see this flats please for the love of god wait 1000 miles before u red line it or take it over 4k rpm engine needs time to full b broken in
Woah
Cool overwatch vid 👍
What you should be scared of, is what you said in a private chat over discord. You do realize we see that behavior flats. Nobody is laughing like in your conversations with your bubble of friends. The word intimacy doesn’t mean what you mean with it when referring to the adolescent fan base you have. Taking advantage of them is a pretty serious crime. Even sexually. Have fun in prison.
yo wtf? 100k likes? who botted its not even at 10k clicks yet
It was at 100 likes, not 100k
20 minute gang
nicu
Men: we like big cars 🗿
Should’ve bought a Chevy
lmao 100k down the drain. should of waited for another year. car crash coming and its gonna be funny laughing at the clowns that overpaid for vehicles that are worth at most 40k. glad i have a dad thats in the car business
...what a waste of 100k
Why would anyone pay $100k+ for a truck? Such a waste of material for a truck that will never be used for the actual purpose of a truck. I'm fine if you want to waste your money but that is not for me.
