2027 RAM TRX MORE of an upgrade than what's on paper?

I've gotten a couple questions from some of the members here on this forum about specific things that I've noticed different with the 2027 over my 2022 TRX so I wanted to make a video discussing all of the things that I haven't talked about in the past. It really seems like this truck is MORE of an upgrade than what is on paper and there are a significant amount of upgrades, especially considering the price change between the two wasn't really that much (comparing it to the changes in the price year over year with the Corvette). Skip from 1:57 to 5:17 to miss the sponsor of the video section.

I was asked specifically about the seat comfort and I noted no difference from my 2022. Suspension changes, horsepower feel, etc. Check it all out here:

I had a 2021, then a 2023, now the 2027. I can honestly say the ride quality and the sound deadening are far superior than the last generation TRX. As for the rest, not much has changed.

Just curious what about the ride quality is that much of a difference? I went for a ride in a 27' the other day and didn't notice much of anything.

The factory braking on my 2027 is way better than my 2022.

Agreed. Same experience here.

The 2027 is much more refined. The interior and the sound system put the 1st Gen in a different class imho otherwise I would have bought the Raptor R.

Were the brakes bedded in correctly on both?

Agreed on 27 being more refined. Planned an oil change for Friday, as I'm most likely turning 500 miles by then. Looking forward to dropping the hammer a bunch after. Back to reading IGLA and "when can I buy a TRX under or at MSRP?" threads for me.............
