Welcome to the Hellcat Kingdom good buddy. So a few things about why the TRX is such an amazing road trip vehicle: Ram actually had the springs in development in tandem with the Bilstein shocks for over 3 years. As Ralph Gilles explained to us, they didn't develop the TRXs suspension in a piecemeal style. It literally was developed as one unit. I know the Ford guys swear by the Fox shocks, and they are good(not King good though), however the Bilstein shocks were in development in 2016 logging 100s of thousands of miles for R&D purposes(those shocks are only fitted to the TRX). It literally shows in how nothing upets the ride of the TRX, despite its prodigious weight, width, and height. One other trick Ram deployed was the 5th shock damper on the rear diff, which cancels out even more vibration and tremor associated with all trucks. Ram further pushed development by creating a 76% new frame specifically for the TRX. That helped to add insane capability as well as increased refinement, despite all of the offroad hardware. And yes, even the tires are TRX exclusive. Yes, they don't have the name of a KO2, but being Duratrac based and better tire wear ratings, they have their pluses. So when I hear people say "tHe TrX iS a OnE TrIcK PoNy"...they clearly have not read up on any of specifics of the amazing beast. Oh, get a Shell card and become a loyalty member. I get 20c off per gallon of good ol 93 for my Hellcats! 10 SMILES PER GALLON GOOD BUDDY!😁
I get 13 MPG’s on the highway in my 22’ TRX! Stop doing pulls, that’s what eats all the gas. Staying under 70 MPH also gets better mileage. That’s the best way to get good mileage on a road trip.
Hi Ben - been watching your videos for awhile and really appreciate the insight. Current Trail Boss with 6.2 owner and am about to go truck shopping this weekend. After hours of studying, I have committed to the TRX over the Raptor 37 package.
Spot on when Ben says the Raptor moves side to side on turning....was disappointed when i test drove it...while the TRXs drive and steering was so impressive on a test drive , it has a sports car steering feel. Im getting a TRX soon
@@leedanielson7452 room doesn’t mean they want the added weight. That proves they don’t care about off-road performance or range. All they care about is saying “702 HP” baby. Yeah, it’s a joke of a truck. 10 mpg on the highway and it NEEDS 93. Good times.
@@leedanielson7452 sure but I’d rather spend the money on a truck like my Raptor that doesn’t pretend to be something it isn’t. That’s all. Plus have tens of thousands of dollars left over for many other things.
The fuel range is where the Raptor will beat the trx in a Baja 500 race. The Raptor will stop less for fuel and has a 36 gallon tank. Great review. I love both trucks.
Lol . So you buy this truck to limit the performance for a 1 mpg improvement maybe . That's dumb. You don't buy this truck for mileage period. Plan on 9-12 .
It’s such a weird sensation watching this video, it looks like the entire right half of your truck is over the lane. Obviously in real life, mirrors probably help a ton, but something this wide would definitely take some getting used to for me at least.
Well I get 13.8 mpg in my 2021 ram rebel 5.7l hemi v8 on average so I would guess yours would be around 12.4 also it’s a great truck the trx is my dream truck and the rebel is basically the little brother I would say still very comfortable and smooth and fast enough
I sat in Recaro seats at the auto show in DC, and man, those things are kind of handsy. I felt like filing a restraining order against them because of how they gripped around my waist and hips. #metooseats Very cool truck, Ben. I can't imagine spending that much money on a depreciating asset like a truck, but if you got the cash to treat yourself, seems like you are having a great time with it. I had a 2001 Jeep Cherokee and the leather seats on that were still the most comfortable I have sat in. Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep do know how to make comfortable seats.
So I’ve been told that the Ram 1500 TRX doesn’t have a 2 wheel drive option like all the other regular Ram 1500 trucks. If that’s the case, then which 4 wheel drive range is it in just for normal on road driving?
9:03 that shift down and the rumbling engine noise just gave me goosebumps!!! Oooh i must say, i hate Chrysler products for their inefficiency and poor reliability but this High performance truck is just on another level. Id just buy it for offroading on weekends and highway cruising on weekends or weekend getaways!! I guess this is also Chrysler's way of paying revenge to Ford for messing up the Jeep Wrangler with the Bronco. Now they messed up the Ford F150 Raptor with the Dodge Ram TRX. Good work Chrysler!!
Rams take awhile to learn. My 2019 Ram Sport came from factory saying 350 mile range with a full tank. Due to a death in the family, I had to take it on a 3000 mile trip. By the end of that trip the truck was up to 650 mile range when the tank was full. So nice to be able to drive for 9 or 10 hours straight, without stopping for fuel.
The RAM TRX is the king of all monster and like Dodge/Jeep/Ram thay know what thay are doing and thay don’t play games like everyone elce does! Thay are so good at what thay do cause that’s why thay’ve been Motor Trend truck of the year many times and thay’ve been the best at what u need them todo! Play or work thay do it all! But if u want toget better fuel economy out of your TRX and anything elce you’ve got to change your intake to K&N cold air intake and change your exhaust from stock to an aftermarket exhaust and air in your tires always helps to. Doing those things make a difference with MPG and Power and torque! I have a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.7 hemi and it’s a monster! Soon later I’ve changed the stock intake and exhaust to K&N cold air intake and my stock exhaust to Corsa Sport and I get more power more torque and mush better MPG! Also better throttle response out of doing both of those things! Plus sound of the Corsa Sport oh wow does it sound good! No drone and true stainless steel! Improve things on ur ride and u will get more out of it! U will hear that CAT SCREAM even more!
You like the Corsa sport? Man I wish I knew someone who has the ram with that. I’m still debating with what exhaust to got with. Corsa or Borla attack. But I don’t want the drone either. 👍
Good afternoon ben congratulations for the new ram trx excellent suspension great performance to you no raptor if the more popular truck in the market 2022 raptor R 760 mp people love raptor 🤝from New Jersey be safe and blessed day
Don’t get me wrong, TRX is an amazing truck, congrats on your truck But me personally, I’d rather take the Raptor, especially the one coming with a V8 Surely the Raptor and the TRX are the 2 most bada** trucks anyone can buy
As a very happy RAM 2020 fully loaded Limited owner done 45 000km in less than a year (not a single fault along the way) the only thing i want from the TRX is the engine, i more like the street-look of the narrower Limited and the lower air-ride. I never go off-road. I hope the Hellcat-engine come avaliable to the limited when i am about to change my truck out. I do not care of the fuel consumtion 😁
This! This comment is what I am struggling with. I dont go off-roading but I really want a hellcat engine. I wish they would make it an option for other models. Id love a limited with a hellcat lol
@@hellkitty1014 Thanks, I like the idea of the mirror like that, but I want to put an rsi smart cap on the truck, and it would block the camera if I got that option.
@@Jjj-jl4pc , with that I disagree but to each their own. I prefer the exterior of the new Chevy Trailboss and the sharper lines but interior, the RAM reminds me of my Audi; work of art.
If Ram would put Ramboxes on it as an option then I will definitely buy one. Now that I've owned a few trucks with Ramboxes, I can't live without that extra storage.
@@davidgray8089 , that is a great feature. I've noticed Nissan puts them in the bed of the truck reducing your cargo space. I like the way RAM used the dead space in the bed sides.
Great video...The truck really isn't 702 hp when you factor the loss. So let's say 30% drivetrain loss equals 491 hp. When you're driving, your only using 491 hp if you were to max out in speed, so while driving let's say you're using 390 to 400 hp. But what really makes the driving experience is the tuning and gearing. I believe if you supercharged a standard Ram and tuned the shift you would get the same performance, maybe better, but better MPG. Because the truck is governed at 119 mph est..So there's so much horsepower that is being unused.
It’s governed because the DOT Approved tires can’t take anymore than that. Anything more the tires could potentially explode in high speeds. On top of that, if you really want to go high speeds you wouldn’t being doing it in a truck. It’s just a badass truck that’s meant to be fun when you do pulls, Also 30% drivetrain loss? Definitely less than that.
Yes, FCA pays it directly to Tesla, helps tesla to setup more giga factories, so simply put FCA is playing a major role in EV development by paying ransom to Tesla
@@gnevala lmao personal expericne my parents farm my farm all drive fords all have 500k plus miles on them and still running strong so lmfo i did put ford in the relaiblilty talk
This truck should have been a hybrid or their should be that option. Imagine a hybrid with 600hp and 15mpg under heavy load. Great truck as is but if they could have given us power and fuel economy!
It's a HEMI. Just power.. not fuel economy.. don't go off road with out a few fuel tanks. As it will only give you about 3 MPG off road. LoL. Enjoy the ride.
Really enjoy your videos, but come on....the only forgone conclusion on the same level as the lousy MPGs is the incredible passing power . Looking for more videos pushing this thing!!!!!!
Being able to afford to pay for the gas wouldn't be my issue. I own a 18 Raptor and I daily drive it. It has a 36* gallon tank, when I fill up I get about 450 miles for the tank and I fill up about once a week. The issue would be stopping to fill up every 2-3 days with this TRX. I could see the V8 sound and power being fun for about 2 months and then I would probably get rid of it. Then again, my weekend driver is a V10 manual transmission Audi R8 :) Regardless, going 4.5 seconds 0-60 in a truck doesn't mean shit when Tesla and GM come out with their fully electric 1100 HP trucks.
@@RAM-KINGOFTRUCKS Cool bro. Dodge/Mopar is trash from their Viper to their pickup trucks. Ford has proven success with their Ford GT which won the Le mans race in 2016 (Ford GT has the same motor as the Gen 2 Raptor) and the Raptor in the Baja 1000. The Gen 1 to the Gen 2 has been proven in the baja 1000 as a "stock" truck, the gen 2 finished the 855 mile race in under 36 hours. Would love to see dodge actually engineer something of value rather then putting a dumbass supercharged v8 in every car and knowingly hurting their vehicles resale value by repeating this process. I'll keep my "dry fart" Raptor and put it against the TRX any day off road and on road. Cant wait to see the deprecation on this P.O.S. in about 2 years, sub 50k on craigslist guaranteed. Now go look up used car prices of the Ford GT and Raptor. Cheers
Wow now we know the trx is a first class pavement princess, It has to go get beat to hell and driven in multiple off road races, baja, choose the distance, or both, all these reviews have nothing to do with it being top dog in the off road categorie. OK the Raptor isn't as fast but its a complete PROVEN off road monster!!
I laugh at the guys that buy this truck as “bug out” vehicle. Yeah have fun with that barely making it out of your local zip code with that fuel Economy. Why Ram doesn’t offer the 6.7L I6 Cummins turbo diesel. If you want bug out. A V8 that get 10 MPG isn’t gonna cut it. I’d rather have range low torque and capable off road. To fast off the line always worried about where the nearest gas station is. It’s a nice truck but even Chevy is missing the Mark with its new Silverado ZR2 and not offering a diesel.
My 2003 F350 quad cab 4X4 with the Triton V10 got almost 11mpg empty at 70mph. Put a trailer weighing 4,000 lbs behind it and it was down to under 7mpg. You would have thought that a V10 would have torque, but nope, if the truck saw a hill, it would kick down a gear with the cruse control on.

To get better gas mileage you have to drive in snow mode, which keeps rpm in the low to medium range

Aren't you supposed to go a certain MPH for specific miles to break in the engine?
Hellcats don't have a specific "break in period", but I will agree that it is not good for a new engine to be gunned constantly.

@@RAM-KINGOFTRUCKS Cool bro. Dodge/Mopar is trash from their Viper to their pickup trucks. Ford has proven success with their Ford GT which won the Le mans race in 2016 (Ford GT has the same motor as the Gen 2 Raptor) and the Raptor in the Baja 1000. The Gen 1 to the Gen 2 has been proven in the baja 1000 as a "stock" truck, the gen 2 finished the 855 mile race in under 36 hours. Would love to see dodge actually engineer something of value rather then putting a dumbass supercharged v8 in every car and knowingly hurting their vehicles resale value by repeating this process. I'll keep my "dry fart" Raptor and put it against the TRX any day off road and on road. Cant wait to see the deprecation on this P.O.S. in about 2 years, sub 50k on craigslist guaranteed. Now go look up used car prices of the Ford GT and Raptor. Cheers
Wow now we know the trx is a first class pavement princess, It has to go get beat to hell and driven in multiple off road races, baja, choose the distance, or both, all these reviews have nothing to do with it being top dog in the off road categorie. OK the Raptor isn't as fast but its a complete PROVEN off road monster!!
That Hellcat smile will wear off quickly with your future gas bills!!!
Not me guessing 12mpg and feeling bad
about it.... But 10mpg is worse than a
Bugatti with 4 turbos.
Yea v6 raptor for me lol
400+ miles fuel range ftw
I was 0.1 of on the MPG guess...🤦🏻♂️
I expect all that in a 95,000 dollar truck lol
Nobody gonna talk about Ben 80+ down the highway 🤣🤣🤣🤦♂️🤦♂️
Everyone was tho
I saw 94 when he gunned it. He's a slowpoke.
How can these guys afford a 95k truck. Lol
I paid 113k for my property and house 20 years ago. Crazy how trucks have gone thru the roof.
Thats why i have a lil daily lol
NOT AN EVERYDAY TRUCK
👍👍👍
I laugh at the guys that buy this truck as “bug out” vehicle. Yeah have fun with that barely making it out of your local zip code with that fuel Economy. Why Ram doesn’t offer the 6.7L I6 Cummins turbo diesel. If you want bug out. A V8 that get 10 MPG isn’t gonna cut it. I’d rather have range low torque and capable off road. To fast off the line always worried about where the nearest gas station is. It’s a nice truck but even Chevy is missing the Mark with its new Silverado ZR2 and not offering a diesel.
These are commanding 125k on autotrader for fully loaded but stock models..greed
You sound like tom cruise.
so f150 Lightning seems to make more sense than TRX...
8.5 mpg
If you ever get tired of filling it up, hit me up. :-)
Yes you need a truck like this on America's highways and byways, there's no need to go off road for a bumpy ride
And now we know that Ben moves from lanes without putting their signal.
No, I just messed up cuz I kept having to fiddle with the GoPro. Filming and driving is hard lol
@@BenHardyCars lol I meant why u had to turn off lane keeping but glad you replied thats what good youtubers do :)
My 95 v10 got worse it had a huge tank and got 250 miles per tank lol
My 2003 F350 quad cab 4X4 with the Triton V10 got almost 11mpg empty at 70mph. Put a trailer weighing 4,000 lbs behind it and it was down to under 7mpg. You would have thought that a V10 would have torque, but nope, if the truck saw a hill, it would kick down a gear with the cruse control on.
11.6
I just wish they have wireless android and apple auto
Had that in my Supra and it broke all the time
Would rather have 8 cylinders than a broken hairdryer sound the raptor has!
