The 2021 Ram 1500 TRX Sucks Down The Fossil Fuels!

I’ve been debating since this originally posted... yup, gonna cancel my order.
 
We got one at the dealer today. The rep was talking about how 2 out in NV were allowed to "jump" the sand dunes -- jealous ... Looks very good up close .. I'll post some images once I find the right thread that I'm sure was already started
 
Classic. Every new Raptor owner should watch.
 
Yeah but it does fly in the face of the C6 and C7 corvettes that can simialr HP numbers or more and still get 20 mpg. Even the ZR1 laying down 755hp with a supercharger can hit 19 mpg hwy.
Power to weight ratio, aerodynamics, rolling mass of tires, friction...all combine to arrive at MPG. My 797HP Redeye gets 22 MPG on the highway, but its not a TRX. All that front end surface area, 35" tires, 6000+ lbs is a lot to overcome. Not to mention, all wheel drive allows you to really lay into the throttle without breaking traction.
