What Do You Want to Know About the Ram 1500 TRX?
What Do You Want to Know About the Ram 1500 TRX?-August 2024

Image for article titled What Do You Want to Know About the Ram 1500 TRX?

We may be in the midst of the worst in over a decade, but that didn’t stop me (a smart and rational person) from asking Stellantis for the keys to a 2022 Ram 1500 TRX to roadtrip for the weekend. Since they’re a bit kooky, like me, they obliged. Because of that, I’ll be taking the TRX down to Washington, D.C. for my little sister’s college graduation (congrats, Maddy).

Yes, you read that right. I’ll be piloting this 702 horsepower, 6,400 pound monstrosity to one of the busiest cities in the country just for fun. Automotive journalism is wild, folks. Let me tell ya.

Maybe I’ll even jump it over the . Whose to say?

We already know what the TRX is capable of, for almost every scenario except for actually living with it every day. How does this gas-guzzling behemoth handle and feel while cruising down the highway? Can it maneuver a tight parking lot? In my mind, these are the things most relevant to the TRX owner. The TRX owner is not off-roading this rig or getting it dirty in any way. They’re toddling around town eating miles (and gas) on the highway.

I’m going to be putting well over 500 miles on this beast, and before I write my review of it sometime next week, I wanna know what you maybe wanna know. Some things I can tell you from the get go: it’s fast, it’s loud, and it goes through gasoline like nothing I’ve ever seen before. (I hope there isn’t a leak?)

In my 45-ish mines of testing so far, I am averaging 8.6 miles per gallon.

The TRX is also incredibly comfortable, and you can look down upon other SUVs and pickups like the lesser beings they are. I’ve never felt anything like it. My “Flame Red” tester is pretty much loaded to the gills – with an MSRP of $91,725, including destination.

So, drop me a line in the comments. What do you want to know about the TRX?

For $27,000, Could This 1977 Greenwood GT Be The Greatest C3 You're Seeing Right Now?
John Greenwood liked to race Corvettes. When he wasn’t racing them he also liked to make street ‘Vettes that looked like his racers. Today’s Greenwood GT is just such a car, and it comes with a price asking a lot of your green. Okay, audience participation time: what would be...

Dwayne Johnson (aka The Rock) is a big guy who often dresses with class. Similarly, today’s Bimmer is an M5 dressed in 7-series clothes. You’ll need to decide if its price puts this mad mashup in a class of its own. Yesterday we had a . Or for bad. That...

The R33 Nissan Skyline GT-R Definitely Doesn't Drive Like A Failure
The is one of the greatest performance cars ever built. Almost all generations of Nissan’s top-of-the-line icon have been praised by critics, adored by owners and lusted after by fans outside Japan. “Almost” is the key word here. The porky, blocky R33 Skyline from the mid-1990s is kind of the...

For $7,200, Could This Custom 1999 VW New Beetle Be TT-ly Awesome?
Concept cars are often visions of a what-could-be future. Today’s custom VW BeTTle is a concept from the past that you actually can have right now, that is, if its price is worth your time. What is, in your mind, the most American of cars? Is it the Corvette? The...

Tomorrow being Independence Day here in the U.S., what better car to critique than this AMC Eagle? Let’s see if this AWD wagon’s price makes it a total star spangled winner. There was a time in the early Aughts when Volkswagen made the choice to abandon the literal meaning of...
