Good call, I wonder how that would hold up to the added power.Don't forget about the weaker transmission. RHO comes with an 8HP75 not the TRX's 8HP95.

You will love it once it's straight piped and shooting flames
oh man, that's terrible. click for shortcut to exhaust sound...
agree they should have not played with the trx platform and should have changed the body a bit making it a different truck purposefully... if they would have made it into a single cab or extended, shorter wheelbase, it would have been a good offroad option..I think the Raptor sounds better but that being said, Ram left alot on the table for the aftermarket world. I just wish they didn't play off the TRX platform and maybe changed up the body a bit more too.
Features-wise, the hands free driving and the passenger dash screen are cool. I don't understand the bright red taillights without the black accents though.
Agreed, a single cab would've given them one heck of a competitive advantage and could be a good off-roader.agree they should have not played with the trx platform and should have changed the body a bit making it a different truck purposefully... if they would have made it into a single cab or extended, shorter wheelbase, it would have been a good offroad option..
This is probably the only advantage the RHO has over TRX (besides newer tech & massage seats). As more offroad reviews come in we will see. I wouldn't trade my TRX for it but the RHO has a market for those not interested in the V6 Raptor. And the aftermarket will improve the exhaust note for sure. But a BMW M3 soundtrack isn't what I would want after the TRX....Interesting - more balanced front/rear weight distribution for those of us that get airborne potentially a flatter flight. <- Our frequent weekly launch site is the secondary entrance and epic transition 'lip' into our local Albertsons supermarket lot - those watching from the neighboring patio of Einstein's Bagels 'appear' to enjoy it as much as our toddlers. The gentler full throttle soundtrack may prevent curbside viewers from spilling their daily soy lattes while reading about their favorite candidate in the Huffington Post..
BMW M3? lol. That sounds waaay better than this RHO! Don’t insult the BeamerThis is probably the only advantage the RHO has over TRX (besides newer tech & massage seats).

Ha! Only with aftermarket exhaust! Clips of stock it sounds terrible. But at the end of the day it is a I6 and could be greatly improved by AWE me thinksBMW M3? lol. That sounds waaay better than this RHO! Don’t insult the Beamer

Of course it did with that high revving V8!Let’s be clear for a second… the M3 didn’t always sound bad. F80 and G80 exhaust isn’t so good. E92 was glorious!
The only 6 that I like the sound of in recent memory is the Nissan Skyline GTR. If they were not so expensive, I could see myself using them as a daily driver.
Off topic:I’m surprised at how well GTR prices have held up. I look at them on Autotrader every now and then and never see any deals. My buddy had one a few years ago and it was fun to drive. I agree, it would be a cool car to own, and I rarely see them on the streets anymore.
Off topic:
We talking R35s or Skylines? R35s prices are strong expensive because Nissan has kept increasing the price for selling basically the same car for 15 years. They were a steal in the early days but its absolutely insane to pay $120k+ for one now. Skylines are expensive now because the 25 year antique car rule opened the American market and everyone wants that sweet sweet Gran Turismo/Fast and Furious life
Love those guys. And I love the R35, just wish it could have kept up with the times. It was a paradigm shift in 09 though, really pushed the supercar market forward.I recently watched a video from Throttle House comparing old and new GTRs, so the R35 was top of mind.
