Whats up everyone, been watching this forum for a couple of weeks and decided to join.
I just turned my 2018 Charger Hellcat lease back in and placed an order for a TRX last week through a dealer at msrp.
My problem is that I have been on the fence from the beginning as to if the TRX was the right choice. I absolutely loved my Charger Hellcat and now, with the REDEYE Hellcats out for a cheaper price then the TRX and with factory rebates of up to $6k, lately, ive been having a hard time trying to justify sticking with the TRX, especially after im seeing all the problems people have been having with them.
The reason I initially ordered the TRX is because I had previously had two chargers, occasionally needed to be able to tow, and because the TRX was the newest thing out. When I was able to order one at MSRP with the options I wanted, I thought it was meant to be.
With that said, having heard of the supply shortages that recently came up, I dont have any idea when I may get the TRX as I ordered it with a ton of the items which have no inventory currently. Factor in the TRX may or may not even fit in my garage (its going to be extremely close after doing the measuring), the TRX only goes 118 from the factory (requiring me to have to get a tune, etc), as well as the problems people are having, I just find myself asking myself, why dont i just order a redeye charger or a trackhawk and be done with it.
I can walk away from my TRX order even after it arrives at the dealer and not lose my deposit as I would just transfer the deposit to a Charger or Trackhawk order.
Obviously my mind goes back and forth on a day to day basis but I thought Id just introduce myself and vent a little bit about what was on my mind.
Look forward to talking with you guys more soon.
Just an FYI in case it matters to anyone here, I placed my order last week and this week was told by the dealer it is now in the "BX" status. dont know if thats about the regular time frame or not..
