24 Raptor R = 720 HP

All the race videos Ive seen have the Raptor R slightly faster than the TRX. Most the comparison videos Ive seen pick the Raptor R over the TRX.
For me, I like the TRX and thats why I bought one instead of a Raptor R this year. I like the look of the TRX more. Ive never been a RAM or Ford guy.
 
If I was in the market between a TRX and a Raptor R, and could get either at MSRP, the R is a no brainer. Ram jacked up the price with no substance while Ford did it right this time.
 
Or full electric. 2000 HP at the rear wheels. 0-60 in 1.5 seconds.
Dear Santa,
All I want for Christmas is for Ram to tell me not to worry with a wink emoji sporting a red eye😊.
Rams 2500 is an underpowered joke compared to Ford and Chevy. That’s coming from a die hard Cummins fan.

A Ford dealership here in ATL screwed me over in a GT500 with a dual clutch tranny that started slipping in less than 10,000 miles.

Never again will I buy a Ford product.
 
Sure, piss on a man's grave. Yeah, I am sure RAM has bigger fish to fry then keeping the TRX since their 2023 sales are in the toilet. 2500's average 724 days on dealer's lots....ouch.
Really? 2 years on the lot? Well, the public really is rekt.

Not being a hater although I must say 720Hp makes me envy not the truck but the fact that Ford is making things happen and RAM is sitting on the EV dildo.
The R is awesome but never will be cooler than the TRX. Exhaust, SC whine...most agree the TRX is more fun to drive but yes the R edges due to weight and now extra Hp.
RAM can still step it up with stage kits which already exist...
 
With similar hp and tq, it’s a drivers race and will remain that way even with the 18 extra ponies that the 24 R has over the TRX and 10 lb feet of tq the TRX has over the R. Both are awesome trucks, but I just don't see the R being that special as it looks damn near the same (except for a few small changes- that v8888 decal still makes me laugh) as the regular Raptor.

You should put that as your profile signature.
 
I bet they didn't do anything to the motor, from the acceleration numbers 700hp on 37's seemed to be underrated anyways.
Agreed, if anything it was an agreement between Ram and Ford.
Hey man let the trx be king while it’s still in production then when we are done you can throw the extra 20HP number out there.
 
Maybe if Ford had dropped the MY24 R instead of the MY23 R, RAM would have been forced to add more features and HP in the 23/24 TRX which would have been great. I cant help thinking RAM started the fight and quit way too early! I remember RAMS social media's accounts calling out ford on their twitter account making fun of the raptor by saying "pop the hood" on the release photos. Man how times have changed! I love the trx but the 24 R is sweet! The only thing putting me off a 24R is the wild mark ups of $20-$60k over, I doubt you can get one at MSRP these days.
 
Another selling point for the R is that it uses it’s rear brakes to mimic an LSD.
 
The catch can deff gave you a few extra hp 😂
Yes I know that doesn't add power but I was just listing the mods to my truck, I guess I'll add the Tazer DT, and the Bacflip mx4 tonneau cover, oh and I guess I shouldn't forget to mention my Gorilla lug nuts and my Valentine one radar and my tinted windows that alone added 15 hp. .. lol 🤣🤣
