Thanks: Ram Trucks

2024 Ram 1500 TRX
Starting at $98.335

Highs: Extremely freakin' quick, serious off-road chops, a warm and luxe interior.
Lows: A thirsty date, an automotive gigantosaurus, no rear-wheel-drive mode.
Verdict: The endangered species list of vehicles with suboptimal fuel economy gets a little shorter as the TRX goes extinct.

Overview

A beast-like snarl snorts beyond the crest of a muddy ORV trail, but this is no ordinary wild animal or hog, it's the furiously quick 702-hp Ram 1500 TRX. Under the hood, a powerful supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 sucks up fuel as if it were drinking from a garden hose. An eight-speed automatic transmission handles gear shifts and the truck's four-wheel drive system carries this enormous off-road animal in even the most treacherous places. The TRX only has two predators to look out for: the 700-hp Ford F-150 Raptor R and the quickest truck we've ever tested, the all-electric Rivian R1T. Unfortunately, time has run out for the mighty TRX, as Ram announced 2024 as its final year. But that didn't stop us from including it on our 2024 10Best Trucks and SUVs and 2024 Editors' Choice lists. Although this year marks the end of the TRX, a twin-turbo V-6-powered replacement, dubbed the RHO, will eventually launch as a 2025 model-year pickup.

What's New for 2024?

The Ram 1500 TRX is all Bad News Bears for 2024, as parent company Stellantis announced it will be the final year of the 702-hp pickup. A Final Edition is offered exclusively for the 2024 model year, but only 4000 will be built. This TRX Final Edition is available in three exclusive colors: Delmonico Red, Night Edge Blue, and Harvest Sunrise. The Satin Titanium beadlock-capable wheels and bedside graphic are also exclusive. Ram adds Patina contrast stitching with "TRX" embroidery to the interior, and the words "Final Edition" appear in the gauge cluster. Other bits and pieces of the interior, such as a Satin Titanium finish and special faux-suede door panels, help make the Final Edition that much more special.

Pricing and Which One to Buy

The price of the 2024 Ram 1500 TRX starts at $98.335 and goes up to $119.620 depending on the trim and options.
TRX: $98,335
Final Edition: $119,620

Even though the TRX starts just north of $80,000, it's a lot of truck for the money. While the base version is certainly well-equipped, it lacks some features that we'd expect to be standard. For example, a heated steering wheel and heated front seats cost extra, and they're otherwise only available with the Level 1 package. That pushes its price ahead by nearly $4000 but brings a smorgasbord of upgrades. Highlights include leather-trimmed seats, cargo-box lighting, a flat-bottom steering wheel wrapped in leather and microsuede, a storage compartment under the rear seat, and more. We'd select that option as well as the Trailer-Tow package to maximize the pickup's pulling abilities.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

Hiding between the TRX's bulging fenders and below its scooped hood is a supercharged Hemi 6.2-liter V-8. More popularly known as the Hellcat engine, this specific version produces 702 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, which is sent to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission. During our testing, the TRX shot to 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds and completed the quarter-mile in 12.3 seconds at 110 mph. That makes it the quickest pickup we've ever tested. Despite its hefty curb weight and huge footprint, the Hellcat-powered Ram is surprisingly refined and easy to handle on paved roads. Still, its supercharged V-8 is ready to emit exciting sounds from its exhaust pipes. Of course, the TRX is meant to play in the mud, rocks, and sand too. Along with a reinforced steel frame, it boasts a beefed-up suspension built to bend and bound with more than 13 inches of travel. It rolls on a set of massive 35-inch all-terrain tires mounted on 18-inch wheels that contribute to the truck's 11.8 inches of ground clearance. Ram says the half-ton Hellcat can also ford up to 32 inches of water. Every TRX comes with enough underbody plating to protect a Brink's truck, Bilstein remote-reservoir dampers, an electronic-locking rear differential, and gigantic 15.0-inch front brakes. What's more?

Is that a 1500 body. I wonder if they can do one on a 2500 body?

Yeah i have a Black one-2yrs old but it’s the same. I love this truck so much-i own 3 Hellcat engine vehicles and love them all. This thing is so spacious too that it’s awesome for road trips. I’m tall so even for me it’s like sitting on a couch in the living room-there is no road fatigue in it-it’s perfect and if i put my seat all the way back he person behind me could be 7’0 and still have leg room. It’s great for sex in back seat area-it’s huge and so is the backseat area, lol. I just love this truck and i don’t care if it’s the fastest i have others for that -it’s pretty fast and i have it up to 850hp right now and will probably put it at 950 when i get new front brake setup-mine didn’t come with front brakes appropriate even for 700hp. Not sure if it was to be cheap or to keep ppl from going to fast but yeah it needs bigger front brakes with this weight and speed. If you want it get it-you will love it.

Anyone else notice the Shelby on the passenger side of the TRX had a Ram plate on the front. Haha.

After 2 years chassis will be corrroded in Chicago and residual value will be close to cero. 40 years ago this Power was used in a BIG truck for delivering goods and now same power is used for carrying one passanger. What is happening to us?
