Ohhhh boy, the Zen Steering Wheel post has got me going!!
I contacted Zen and they immediately got back to me...for my 2024 Laramie G/T with Paddle Shifters, I would build out and order a TRX Steering Wheel (without the TRX decal on the bottom).
Looks like I'm going to be $898 broker this spring!!
I'm gonna do Matte CF, Silver 12 0'Clock & stitching, Perforated Sides, Heated, no-TRX decal..similar pic attached below.
Also attached some pics of the CorkSport Alcantara/Perforated Steering Wheel that I put in Wifey-pooh's ND Miata a couple years ago...makes SO much difference in "grips & giggles"!

I'm going to assume that "Miata" is some new code-word for a TRX, or a 392 Rubicon or something. Because I'm positive that y'all aren't talking about that tiny-a$$ Mazda car from the '90's that had about as much horsepower as a '71 VW Beetle.

I'm going to check out a Miata on Friday. I was just expecting such a thing. I haven't joined any forums for this reason.
Miata.net is the Forum to use.
Nobody complains about anything, because there is nothing to complain about with the ND (2016+) Miata, but you will get your money spent..there is SOOOO much you can do with them! The 6 speed trans is so perfectly geared and the 2.0L is smooth, peppy, revvy, AND 32+MPG no matter what!
One for sure thing to do is a Versatuner download with a Fab9 Tuning tune..it's cheap, easy to do, and makes the 2.0L feel like a small 6cyl..much torquier!! Contact me if you get one.

I don't want to hijack the Ram Forum, but Flying Miata used to have a full conversion kit to stuff a 6.0L LS 525hp V8 and a LS/Tremec 6 spd into the ND Miata...NOT SLOW😋 (I wanted that badly!)
Maybe a HEMI!!??

Good Lord! If you're going that far, might as well put a Hellcat in it. Or, why stop there - maybe a Hellephant.

Back to Ram Forum...I did do this today...talked to my buddy who owns the dealership that I ordered both my 2023 & 2024 Laramie G/Ts from...they just got in their 2024 TRX and it's GCM like mine (think my wife will even notice if I just pull a fast swap!?) It does have the Red seats stripes instead of the grey ones on ours..but I think I'm good to go, hey!?!

That must be one of the non-Final-Edition TRX's. MSRP is around $110k, right?

You need to buy it. You and I both know that I don't need to explain why. Just Do It

$113k..you know your stuff!

Here's how it makes perfect sense:
  • The last TRX will be built in less than 2 weeks. They're currently at $125k MSRP (Final Editions). You have an option to buy basically the same truck, but for $15k less (MSRP to MSRP).
  • You know you want one, and you won't sleep well at night unless you get it

I paid 469 for mine. Getting it straight from china custom made. Got limited written at the bottom with blue stitching and blue 12 o clock ring and it’s heated. You do not need to spend almost a grand. Better to spend a half and buy carbon paddles.
