I was actually a member a couple of years ago and found this site a great resource before I purchased my ram. I acquired my 2019 in Dec of 2018 and had it now just over 2 years. Very happy with the truck and now thinking about acquiring another down the road.

Has there been any future news of taking the engine from the TRX and creating more of a street version.

No, but there has been talk of taking the TRX and putting in a downgraded engine (maybe a 6.4L HEMI) and selling it for $10-$12K less than the current TRX with the Supercharger. I think RAM will have huge success if they can get the starting price of the TRX down $10-$12K as, most folks, really don't want or need the Hellcat engine.

With a new sheriff in town I'm guessing that things that burn fossil fuels will be very politically incorrect, and likely out of favor in the market.

I’m thinking the next big update for the 1500s engine will be an electric version. When? I have no idea but I don’t doubt they’re working on the idea.
