    TRX Quality

    I purchased a 2018 Trackhawk (not a cheap vehicle) and after 2k miles started to have issues with the 4 to 5 shift. Majority of the time it would allow the motor to rev up a few hundred RPMS before completing the shift so much so that people I took for rides in the car asked about it. Took it...

    TRX Quality

    Honestly they all have their issues. Sometimes you get a good one and others a bad time. I think more people complain then praise so seeing these negative comments will steer people down the road that the brand sucks when in fact it is quite good. All brands have issues. Buy the one that...

    TRX Quality

    I agree. The clock is counting down for these SC hemi v8s. I feel like this time will be compared to the pre-emission 60's where cubic inches ruled.

    TRX Quality

    Good friend finally got his TRX and although he is happy I'm wondering if they are pushing these through too fast and not focusing on quality. With only a few hundred miles 2 problems have come up which are minor but an issue nonetheless. The exhaust tip came lose and is rotating on its own...

    Air Suspension and Lowering the Rear?

    You really don't need these. They spoof the BCM to think the truck is at normal ride height but its actually not. You can adjust the height using AlphOBD or contact your dealer to adjust. You can't go any lower or higher than what your air suspension can physically go now (EE or OF2). EDIT...

    2019 Ram 1500 5th wheel towing

    Nice setup. What speed do you usually run or feel is the sweet spot on the highway?

    2021 Ram 3500 MegaCab DRW Limited Night Edition

    Just ordered the above from Craig at Koons. This will be my 3rd vehicle purchased from this dealership in the last few years. First one had a few speed bumps but 2nd was smooth as glass, and this purchase so far has been incredible. Craig is a great guy and very thorough. You'd be doing...

    Low Payload

    Agreed. The TRX is not designed to tow heavy, but marketing that it can tow 8100lbs is somewhat misleading. I don't understand what options can lower your payload from 1400 (advertised) to 993 actual as indicated in the TFL video. That ram bar and 2nd spare tire must be pretty heavy. LOL...

    TRX wrecked, not even off the assembly line!

    That video was with ARH Long tube headers, Y pipe, no cat and Corsa Sport Exhaust Systems #21035BPC. Absolutely no drone. However, it was loud as hell especially when you get on it but sounded awesome. Just recently I installed a green high flow cat and short free/open flow muffler (from a...

    Air Suspension and Lowering the Rear?

    alphaOBD or dealer can reset what is the normal height for each bag. it can be done with programming.

    TRX wrecked, not even off the assembly line!

    Here are some old ones. Will get new videos when I finally get new 8 rib pulley conversion and Walbro fuel pump installed to address fuel starvation at WOT, and then will do some pulls. Running around 3.8 s 0 to 60 with old build. 426 should be faster just can't do full WOT runs yet because...

    TRX wrecked, not even off the assembly line!

    I was on the fence for ordering one in that exact color (same color of my current truck). I am very confident if I did order one that would have been my truck (considering the luck I've been having lately). Feel bad for whomever owns that VIN. Back of the line! Uffa......

    The 2021 Ram 1500 TRX Sucks Down The Fossil Fuels!

    If anything the Corvettes should be getting 30 or 40 mpg considering how light and low drag coefficients they are compared to a lifted truck with 35" mud tires. Complaining about poor gas mileage in the TRX is similar to complaining about low cargo & tow capacity of the Vette, or Toyota Prius...

    Gauge Pod

    Has anyone added a gauge pod (single, dual or more) to their 5th gen Ram? Looking for a single pod to sit between grab handle and dash cluster that sits on the dash or if I must replace the grab handle with a gauge pod cluster. What mfg have you used? Pics if you can. Thanks

    Fifth wheel towing...

    In 35+ years of driving, have CDL A, and towed multiple bumper pulls, GN and 5th wheel trailers i state this....I would feel much safer towing a fifth or GN that is at max or even slightly over ( ~100lbs or so ) then a bumper pull that is under weight especially in adverse conditions or during...

    TRX Waiting Room

    If you really want this truck I would suggest to wait. I did a similar mistake being impatient and regret it. However, if you really don't like the truck then by all means jump ship but don't jump just because its not coming fast enough or you may regret it like I did. I had a 19 black out...
