- 2021 Ram TRX
Ordered both the Ram TRX and Raptor about the same time. The TRX came in at the end of June, the Raptor just showed up today at the dealership. Went to the Ford dealership with an open mind despite knowing how the TRX compared with my previous gen Raptors. Not even a comparable IMO. The Raptor interior is smaller, cheaper looking and that new shifter felt like it was going to fall apart when I shifted gears. The Nav screen was a step above the TRX but not as robust with options such as Performance pages. The Raptor I ordered included the 37" performance package so overall height was similar to my TRX with 37s however the Ram hood and cab feels much higher(see reference pics). Power - do I even need to talk about that. Exterior - love the factory 37" option but that was it, the Raptor still uses a traditional antenna...WHY?!?! The only real advantage I'll give the Raptor was it drives smaller then the TRX. Anyone on the fence I strongly urge to drive and look at both in an unbiased manner and you will see the TRX hands down is the overall winner. What I can't figure out is why the Ford Raptor Forum folks are all excited for this new gen.
