HOT! 2027 RAM TRX is Back as the Fastest and Most Powerful Production Gas Pickup Truck in the World

[D2procon]

Does anyone know if there will be a ram bar option for the new 2027 Truck?

I’m not sure why, but the Rambar hasn’t been an option since MY24. There have been about 30,000 RHO’s built since then, and not a single one has a Rambar from the factory.

It isn't listed on the order guide for 2027.

It seems the 27 TRX while up on power over the gen 1 also gained like 300 lbs which can explain why no tests are breaking 4.1s to 60.

Remember the gen 1 level 0 versus the 27 fully loaded “base” has a big standard equipment discrepancy. The trucks these initial reviews are using have pano roofs and beadlock wheels which adds good weight. Can explain the reason the times are more than 3.5 plus the heat soak thing.

Tfl tested a fresh truck and got 4.6 recently so it’s not looking so good. It was above sea level but shouldn’t affect a supercharged car too much.

While a supercharger does help with altitude loss, it can only spin as fast as it’s mechanically limited. It is not like a turbo which can just spin faster to make the correct psi.

At 6K feet the trx feels completely different than sea level, it has a HUGE effect on power.

Testing below sea level can really affect the 0-60 times, especially if not using a snorkel.

El Centro, California is 60 feet below sea level and it's a desert.

I know, areas near Salton City are about 300' below, and Death Valley is down a bit, too. But that's not exactly the norm.

Is the 2027 ZF8HP95, torque converter, transfer case and drive shaft the same part numbers as the 2021’s?

 

[Rezze]

They added weight to cancel out the extra power and made the payload embarrassing…. Getting dud vibes

 

[TRXforLIFE]

Essentially the same truck. Same exterior and interior design, some new engine parts and intake, 75 more HP, more weight, apparently slower then the first iteration and the red accents everyone loves. Dodge hit it out of the park! At least the hellcat is back in a truck. IMO the Rumble Bee in all of its iterations should have been released first then later in 27 or early 28 the TRX with a re-design. Cut some tech and weight, increase the HP/torque and blow it out of the water.

Where is all that extra 300 lbs comming from?

Wiring for useless tech and nannies?

Sorry if this was already posted somewhere, but more of the '27 TRX SRT 0-60 time still being slower than advertised and the Raptor R Hoping some of our members start seeing sub 4sec runs. I have always known manufacturer posted times to be slower than actual which would be amazing!

Except for the '21-'24 TRX. Ram claimed 4.5 seconds. There are plenty of guys getting as low as 3.7 seconds.

My best run (before putting all my shit in it) was 3.9 seconds. I’m closer to 4.5 seconds now (I have a lot of crap in my truck). That’s still pretty quick for a full size truck on 35’s. That said, none of the reviews on the 2027 model make me want to change vehicles. I’m good with my pedestrian 702hp and UConnect 4!

Bombay Beach on the 'eastern shores' of the Salton Sea is 223' below sea level. Was too focused on the native sites and very eccentric residents to perform any performance testing during the heat of Summer too.

First trip to Bombay Beach we stopped at the Ski Inn for an early lunch. Some locals were hanging out at the bar and offered to call the cook and wake him up if we really wanted food

Beyond the sub-elevation - there is nothing normal about this area! Countless documentaries, attracting tourists from all over the world that also follow www.AtlasObscura.com The smell from rotting fish and the Salton Sea can be intense like a 4D movie experience. Apparently there is a massive deposit of Lithium in this area and it may be unrecognizable in 20yrs, possibly the 5th largest in the world!

Done this 700 mile day loop from Phoenix three times including Slab City + Salvation Mountain. Also Ocotillo OHV 4wd park including the Tubes obstacle, last trip added 'The Republic of Slowjamastan' to the west.

Outbound - drove past the Glamis dunes and Inbound through an amazing canyon road N/E of Salton Sea back to I-10 E/B (the TRX sound resonates off some bordering vertical walls like an empty parking garage) <- Definitely need to get some tripod/GoPro footage the remote canyon, been told it's a 'The Hills Have Eyes' movie backdrop.

Next mental cleansing road trip will capture some 0-60mph runs! Always memorable TRX and past Raptor(s) adventures!

Well, you wrote "slower times" but meant "lower times". That's confusing enough, especially since "slower" would normally be speed related, not time.

Used to go to Truckhaven a lot, but visiting Salton City was not high on the list of things to do.
Don't know if people ended up odd from living there, or ended up there because they were odd.
