They don't come any bigger and badder than this! I see the Supra ads for 3.9 second 0-60... that's cute...this does that and can carry a Supra in the back! Great review Steve !!!
My cousin has one of these lol and he let me drive it. It is a pleasure to drive let me say. I love how the front end lifts up when you stomp the skinny pedal. The launch control is pretty cool too. we raced my buddies Corvette and we spun all 4 tires from the launch lol It was pretty even honestly.
Steve I still come back and watch this review a year later. Great work! Although this time I’m watching is different. Taking delivery of one next week.
Steve great review as always. Been watching your car reviews for years now. Great honest reviews aside, i have to say i love the power and usage of the english language/ paraphrases in your reviews. You have great command over the language and know what words to appropriately slide at the right time, all so flawlessly which make the review so much entertaining to watch. We need more auto review journalists like you. Been a fan for years. Keep up the great work my friend! :)
What a joyous review of an insane thing. Thanks! This truck is everything I don’t want on every level (my current DD is a Kia Niro EV, which is almost the opposite of this thing), but I am glad it exists, and I’m certain that driving it once would hook me HARD.
Another positive review about the trx. The only negative I see mention is the gas mileage but again nobody cares about that. I owned a ram srt-10 and it only got 9 mpg as well. Nothing new to me.
450 miles on mine, can't wait to test our launch control! So far only driven on road. Wonderful review! One of the best I've seen in a compressed amount of time.
If Dodge only provided something like a TRX package for their 5.7 V8 Rams!!! I really dig the look of the TRX, but a common Hemi would be enough for me.
I'm a Ford guy through and through. With that said, I'm so glad the Ram TRX is this good. T his level of competition will keep Ford on their A-game. In fact I wish Nissan, Chevy, and Toyota would get into the off road super truck space because competition breeds excellence. Some of that tech will also filter down into trucks that mere mortals can afford. As and example, I offer hill decent control. Hill decent control first appeared in ford trucks with the Gen1 Raptor, Now you can check that box in regular F150 4x4's. The raptor will always be my favorite truck in the world. With that said, great job Ram. Keep your foot on the gas, never let up, and keep the blue oval boys on their A-game.
Even at close to 90,000 dollars it's still good value for money imo. Especially compared to large "premium" SUVs from Lexus, Mercedes, BMW, Cadillac, Range Rover, Porsche etc. If you want to buy something completely over the top, this must be it :-)
I really love this review. I find myself watching it over and over again. I’m on the fence between the Trx and Raptor. But when I watch your review I’m like what Raptor. lol
To answer your question I just received my 2022 Trx 2 week’s ago. Same color as your test vehicle with level 2 package. I had to wait 7 months to get it .
Yea no if you buy this truck, you MUST opt for the panoramic glass roof option. As far as I’m concerned, gimmie the most stripped down one with no packages (no bed mounted spare, no bead locks, nothing) just make sure it has that roof.
It makes you wonder what will the power output will be made for the Raptor. Or if Ford will place the Mustang Cobra engine in a hypertruck, if they'll ever do so.
Its sad that we only have a few years left of these type of fun make no sense cars. Say whatever want you about electric it simply can't put a grin on your face like the hellcat motors do.
Rams infotainment is one of the best in the business and one of the most responsive the only thing that takes a while to load is the menu where you adjust the drive modes and that’s it
Steve: Top speed is listed at 118 mph, and though I haven't gone anywhere near that fast... Us: Of course you haven't Steve. You'd never do that...wink!
Apparently the TRX is coming to Australia, and we'll be paying upwards of AU$200,000 (US$154,999) for the pleasure! But, considering what it's capable of, and the tax advantage of a 'commercial vehicle', I think they'll do quite well here!
my cousin bought one then his wife (save the plant lady) complained about their combined carbon footprint so he bought her a Tesla and they called it draw. she uses the TRX to go for groceries now..
That’s a perfect truck to haul a bed full of squirrels . I host squirrel cage matches and it’s the perfect amount of speed to escape the law when they bust my underground squirrel wrestling I hold downtown in various alleys . I’d get mine in Elmo red or Cookie Monster blue though . Folding the back seats up with the ice chest and plug is perfect for me to plug in a deep fryer full of hot oil and have some cold drinks to sell out the back window as a semi legal food truck .
@@stevehammes well, that's the least trouble. We're used to it. But U.S. cars imports, it is a nightmare. U.S. price + transport from overseas + VAT !!! + approvals + commissions and there you are. I would get two TRXs in the U.S. for the same money.
Hi Steve! Quick question, where can I send you a direct message, I have a question related to a couple of cars I am currently considering, would love to have your opinion?
T REX is more powerful, looks better on the outside, looks better on the inside. Raptor is I don't know how to phrase this exactly. It can be seen when either truck does Donuts in/on gravel roads. I actually own a 2020 RAM Rebel I know how it is. The RAM's are bouncy, they bounce around on their shocks. Not to the point where its a problem but it does cause worry in drives. Fords just for some reason don't do that. The Ultimate truck I'd like to have would be a mismash a mix of the Raptor and the T REX put together. The Raptor's whatever makes it so good off road, shocks, suspension, axle's whatever it is. So a Raptor with the HP the RAM has, the interior the RAM has and nicer cooler exterior too. If you could make it so it didn't cost $120 to fill up that would be a GAME CHANGER.
1:48 thru 1:52 I didn’t like how rickety those front panels were banging on the bumper. You can only see it when the truck is going through very rough terrain (ruts, whoops) at high speed. Maybe it’s just me but it seems like it wouldn’t last long while legitimately using BAJA mode.

Got mine around April this year and absolutely love it.
You got natural talent Steve. The "John Madden" of truck reviews"
Ha!! Thanks.
Whoever said dinosaurs were extinct must not have seen the TRX! Good review Mr. Hammes!
Watching you actually off-road and not just stand by the truck and talk about it was a plus thank you buddy
That’s what I do!
Motor Trends Truck of the Year and Ram has one it the last 3 year's which no one has done before..Congratulations Ram 😁

I watch a lot of review videos and this is one of the best if not the best review video. Great job!!
Wow, thanks!
@@stevehammes Your welcome!! I will definitely be watching a lot more of your videos!!

Thanks 👍
There's something about this review that I had to click the subscribe button as soon as watched through.
Great job man!
Love it! Thank you.
Another positive review about the trx. The only negative I see mention is the gas mileage but again nobody cares about that. I owned a ram srt-10 and it only got 9 mpg as well. Nothing new to me.
LOL you had way to much fun doing this one. 😂
The TRX was built to have too much fun with, I don't blame em.
'completely apocalyptic' .... yeah, I NEED ONE!!!!!
I have been watching your videos for almost a decade and this is one of your best reviews. You had me hooked when you reviewed the 2012 300 SRT.
Wow! You go way back. Thanks, man! Appreciate it.
450 miles on mine, can't wait to test our launch control! So far only driven on road. Wonderful review! One of the best I've seen in a compressed amount of time.
Professional review, very comfortable presentation of information. Thank you Steve!
Much appreciated!
I want one! That is one great truck!
@ 6'4 I just wish it had an extended thigh support. Ford still leads the industry in the most versatile seats from a manufacturer.
If Dodge only provided something like a TRX package for their 5.7 V8 Rams!!! I really dig the look of the TRX, but a common Hemi would be enough for me.

The interior design is way better than Ford. The projector bulb LED headlights look fantastic. May just have to go for a test drive!!!
Incredible! Nice job RAM.
Amazing review. Well done!!!
Thanks!
No denying it....I love Raptors,but I want this.....😬
The Raptor’s a turd compared to this!
ii dont even like trucks but this is nice.. this trim color, everything perfect
We agree!
Andy at Huntington Beach Dodge had some in stock last week but I believe they sold out of all of them.
Steve where have you been! Clicked on the video as soon as I saw it - loved it
It better be seriously kick-ass for $80K +…. Gorgeous truck…
A dinosaur 🦖 for rich 🤑 boys to show the neighbors that you don’t mind burning 🔥 fuel ⛽️ to show off!
Cool. That will fit right in at the trailer park.
Perfect truck if it has sunroof however still my favorite truck.
Bruh...

As far as I’m concerned, gimmie the most stripped down one with no packages (no bed mounted spare, no bead locks, nothing) just make sure it has that roof.
What people don’t realize is that the raptor gets + like 3 mpg for a engine that has - 250hp and is only I bit over half the size
BADASS, period
It makes you wonder what will the power output will be made for the Raptor. Or if Ford will place the Mustang Cobra engine in a hypertruck, if they'll ever do so.
Probably 700hp. That seems to be the "it" number these days.
Its sad that we only have a few years left of these type of fun make no sense cars. Say whatever want you about electric it simply can't put a grin on your face like the hellcat motors do.
Woww.very elegant Steve I love the new face lift. But Steve what about Mercedes benz c class the 2021 model
Great review!
Dear Santa... i´ve been a good boy this year................😋😆

My favorite part is the 3 second delay on the touchscreen and the slow rebound on the shocks.

If they actually have a console transmission gear shift and NOT the knob shifter on the dash, it might be shortlist able.
We need a review of that car
So powerful it can even kill an asteroid.
Nice Dodge Ram 1500😊👌👍🦾🦾
Simply the best truck 😎👌🏻

LOL, its a tire limit thing.
I'm thinking 'bout buying one, thanks
Is the trx is goint to have problems whit The motor in future like the other hammi whit camshead some like that
They should've called it T-REX!!!! IJS
What's with the huge plastic cover over the engine
Apparently the TRX is coming to Australia, and we'll be paying upwards of AU$200,000 (US$154,999) for the pleasure! But, considering what it's capable of, and the tax advantage of a 'commercial vehicle', I think they'll do quite well here!

Really ?
When u hit lottery get in line lol ...and then send it 2 Australia buddy
How reliable is it after you pay it off?
really nice truck..love it just cant afforded
Well, that makes most of us.
Still waiting for a side by side offroad comparison with this thing. I'll be more than happy to take anyone on. :-)
Can't lose with with either truck. Both are incredible.
@@stevehammes couldn't agree more.
Raptors are a joke!
@@geemee3364 Absolutely correct! These trucks were in a league of their own till this eco boost mumble jumble...

Where in NY did you take this truck off roading? I’m looking for some trails...
My problem with this truck is the fuel economy 😕
You're very lucky guys ... would you like to know the full-featured-car price tag here in EU? 130k EUR.
Yikes! And then your gas prices!
@@stevehammes well, that's the least trouble. We're used to it. But U.S. cars imports, it is a nightmare. U.S. price + transport from overseas + VAT !!! + approvals + commissions and there you are. I would get two TRXs in the U.S. for the same money.
It looks mean. I don't like trucks. I don't need them. But I really want one.
Man i want this truck. I need to find the special leprechaun for trucks I don’t need.
