Ram TRX 1 Year Ownership Review

In this video we discussed the first year of ownership with the Ram 1500 TRX

$72, 000 in 2021, $106, 000 in 2023. This is insane. Thank you to our governments and the inflation they have created.

Man, I must of watched 50 + videos so far but yours are really down to the point. I’m testing TRX this weekend and then we’ll see. Thanks for doing this 🙌

[brianjamison]

Great honest video! I absolutely love the TRX and that's coming from A Raptor guy. I love the Raptor off roading a tad bit better but the TRX is insane on the pavement. You have a beautiful truck brother... 👊

Took delivery of my 2022 TRX on October 29 and have 980 miles on it... parked in my garage while I'm in Florida until mid April.
Only problem was a loose window washer spray hose on passenger side under hood insulation pad.
Fixed in 15 minutes...no charge.

I just stumbled upon your channel right now and I have been trying to catch up with all of your TRX content. I did not even know that it was possible to order a BASE model TRX for a great and reasonable sticker price. I mean, like you said in your other video about being a TRX peasant, I am the same haha. But that definitely helps knowing you could do such option, personally I feel the same way about just having 1 special feature as opposed to the whole upgraded- $100, 000 truck! sick content.

Note on fuel economy.. I remember his rebel lift kit video on his 17 rebel. It showed he was getting 13.6mpg... i haven't watched all his videos on the rebel and don't know if he had other modifications as that video was solely lift kit related. There are 2 factors that play the biggest in his (at that time) mpg. He lived in South Florida is the biggest factor. You'd get better mpg driving in New York City. In South Florida even the Tesla's have to carry a generator in their trunk because there is no traffic, it's just a parking lot. Driving to the Walmart which is 2.3 miles away takes 83 minutes... So round trip is nearly 3 hours just sitting in your car going to and from Walmart... I live in FL but not South FL. I have an unmodified 18 rebel hemi with the air suspension and I do all highway miles to work and avg 21.5mpg (if I tailgate a semi I avg 24.3mpg.). His other factor as he clearly implies, he has a lead foot. I pull a 27ft camper with my rebel occasionally and still get 11mpg.. except in the mountains... As for insurance... Some FYI for you all if you don't know.... If you have any gaps of not having insurance in the last 5 years.. example... You got an at home job and sold your vehicles and take the bus to the grocery store... When you go to get insurance you have to pay a premium for NOT having insurance. They penalize you for not owning a car. The penalty is 1k/year for 5 years (this is a nationwide policy as it was passed during the scamdemic act). So if you go buy a 1995 RAM and own it out right, your insurance for that vehicle will be $180/mth (of course your not getting comp and collision)(even if you did not own a car for even 30 days, the penalty is still 1k/yr for 5 years.). This does not apply to most of us, but since the scamdemic it will apply to some.... I always pay my insurance for the 6 months in full and for an 18 rebel it's just under $645/6mths (just renewed it 12/23, so that price is current), in FL. Note: FL has the highest insurance rates in the country. Yes even worse than NY and CA and Mi. I am 40 years old and have a CDL and no accidents ever... I did have a couple speeding tickets when i was a teen. I am just a company truck driver so my personal insurance is unrelated to my job...

Great Vid man thanks for the info. Crazy out there. found a dealer and got my base model 5K below MSRP. can't wait for it to come in. thanks for showing base model info only person I could find that order the "PEASANT MODEL"

[timradke]

Love mine, it’s a 22 I ordered a level one, and added bed group, 19 speakers and step tubes, 87700

[LCculater]

In Canada I paid 150, 000 dollars for my level 2 full load . Crazy but love it

[joesz]

I ordered my 2022 on June 8th of last year. I’m STILL waiting for it to arrive. It’s ordered full boat - with all the options. $98, 000 + $10, 000 over…so $108, 000. I’m told it’s gonna ship Feb 23rd - then another 3 weeks for it to arrive. So a full 9 months wait time…if it arrives when they say it will.

Great video - I am thinking of buying a TRX and very concerned given I have never owned a Ram Truck and only have had GMC and Ford. Thanks for the review video.

Big fan of the page, that base interior doesn’t get enough credit. I pick up my level 1 Thursday and being in PA I needed the heated seats. Pretty bummed I couldn’t get the full red and black interior with that trim option. That really needs to change

[tomyunt]

Love that truck and would love to have one but I think I’m going with the 2500 rebel with the 6.4 v8 great video

[emmanuelbadajos]

man ! love your truck, been a long time subscriber !

[kodygray]

Congratulations man, I need to still figure out how to make that happen for myself

[dcfella]

Excellent video and thanks for taking the time to let us know about this truck

[seanlincoln]

I just ordered a base trx last week here in Southern California. Remote start wasn’t even an a la carta option, had to be at least a level 1 or 2. I’m looking forward to your install video on the remote start

Hello there, thanks for the video and really nice looking truck, yesterday I drove 140 miles to go test drive a TRX which is hard to do these days no one let you drive anything and I’ve been wanting one so badly, I’m a Jeep guy and I was debating between the 392 Jeep or the TRX, I love the truck but when I got to the dealer they had a used one and they sprayed oil all the interior down with oil it was terrible but oil got all over me in the oil/cleaner that you really stunk, so my whole driving experience was negative before I even started driving it, and the vehicle had a big scratch in it so it started off negative but when I drove the truck it’s a heavy truck and you could feel it and it was very floaty feeling for example if you took a turn it it would sway alot right and left and I’m old-school I’m used to that older truck tight stiff feeling and I wasn’t impressed maybe simply because of what I’m used to but that’s all I’ve been thinking is purchasing TRX and since I drove it I kind of changed my mind but then I was thinking maybe the tire pressures were real low? it just didn’t feel stable, I don’t know if what I’m saying makes sense but just wondering if you understand what I’m talking about? And I was thinking well maybe it rides better on the street if you run the tire pressures up to full max maybe it’s more stable that way? I don’t know the truck had 7000 miles on it but it was a terrible experience but maybe it was just that truck it just didn’t feel right I actually couldn’t wait to get it back to the dealer and go home, I want to purchase something I have a 1 ton Dooley and I have a 2018 Rubicon which I love so I think I’m going to get the 392 Rubicon but before I do I wanted to reach out to a few people tell them my experience and then compare that to their vehicles but it felt like a big bulky vehicle not big as in too big to drive but Felt too big top-heavy for maybe higher speed driving on winding roads, the suspension on the street if this makes any sense, I’m not cutting the truck down at all I’m a big support of Dodge and what they’ve done is incredible and when I look at the truck I love it the interior is incredible the sound is incredible but when I drove it if I was on a real windy road it would drive me nuts, Your thoughts buddy and thanks for the awesome videol

Your in West Palm Beach, I’m in St Petersburg. I have the level 2 . Other than the gas I have no complaints. I call it my big corvette. Stay safe. $94K for me.
