Made the mistake of driving in a Ram TRX

I look at it as that pos wont last 200k miles.

 

The guy who did it's a knob, so I linked a trimmed video that someone ripped off of him.

 

Shocking that a $80k truck is nicer than a $35k truck.

 

$80k and the door hinges are on the outside\exposed.

 

There's been rumors both ways, either with the GT500s supercharger or with twin turbos. Ford has twin turboed the Coyote 5.0 a few times and talked about it but nothing's hit the sales floor. I wouldn't be surprised if now is the time.

FCA won't make any more major power jumps on the Hellcat. It has nothing to do with if it's possible, it has to do with cash on hand and meeting internal targets. What you can do in a speed shop and what you can do in production are two different things and FCA is reaching that point of tapping out on that power plant. There's a reason tons of Hellcat Chargers with 50K on them are for sale with blown transmissions. No use goosing 50 more HP if the cars going to have major component failures consistently while still under warranty.

 

LOL!

 

That’s your peak complaint ?

 

I owned a Dodge Ram once. Once...

 

Certainly not my peak complaint but something with expensive Jeeps in general. 99.9% of Jeep owners never take their doors off and it seems silly that $50k+ SUV has doors that look like a 1900’s era barn door.

 

Ppl like that. I don’t find it to be a valid complaint. However the fact that the solid axles and shit steering make it wander all over the freeway like it’s 1930, sure is off putting.

 

...

 

I wonder if the TRX owners POV would be "I look at those Tacoma Toy trucks and wouldn't want to subject myself to 200k in something so weak and small"?

I'm sure a guy who can afford a 80k+ truck would never want to stick with anything that long. They simply buy a bigger/better after a fraction of those miles. Personally I don't think I would want this even if I had the money but definitely respect the crazy amount of engineering they did to change a normal 1500 into this TRX beast.

 

More impressed by the driveway and garage lightning !

 

Me too!

 

My father in law likes to say "that's about as useful as a 2 foot dick", which kind of sums up what I think about those trucks. Fun to have in certain situations, but overkill to the point of annoying the other 99% of the time...

 

It's nice that he's supportive.

 

Me:

 

So a truck that is worth nearly more than twice a Tacoma is nicer/faster/bigger? I'm shocked.

 

I would be reluctant to even park something 120K in a public parking area.

 

Freakin hilarious
