TRX IS RETURNING

[Eighty]

So, there is nothing on the innerweb but speculation by anyone but "click baiters", and this dealer representative stating they are making a return. Let's just put that out there to be clear.... If there is, please inform us of where to find the true information. I've seen the speculation of the RAM Street Trucks, but don't think that is what is being referenced here.

There is, however, 32 Brand New 2024 TRX's on Autotrader and 31 on Cars.com. So, if someone wanted one, there is still an opportunity. Not saying the dealer representative at Dan Cummins is putting out teaser info, but how many times in the past has CDRJ dealers bamboozled buyers with Last Calls, Final Editions, Inaugural Editions, Challengers, 392 Jeeps, TRX's and the first of the lies, the 2021 Hellcat Durango.

I am sure that anywhere a manufacture sees a way to make money, they will, but they have to have enough interested buyers to build a platform with mass production to be profitable. There are also 748 Brand New Hellcat Charger and Challengers still left on the lots that are 2023's incidentally, lol.

I'm not speculating they are or are not bringing the TRX back, but again, seems if there were the market for these other than us on these forums, which are not enough to start a production line, there wouldn't be CDJR lots still with these sitting around. Sooner or later, we FOMO owners, (2024 Rubicon 392 Final Edition, 2022 TRX, GT500) are going to tell "Lucy to quit pulling the football from under Charlie Brown", LOL, that shits funny I don't care who you are....

Trollers, have at it!

Couple of points I'd like to make. Not trolling, just offering a few observations.

First, I have no reason to believe that Cody isn't telling the truth. If I had to guess, his Stellantis rep leaked that information. That does happen, believe it or not. I was told about the Lunar Edition a couple of months before it became public knowledge (by a dealer, who was given that info from a factory rep).

Also, there was no separate production line for the TRX. It was built on the same line as every other 1500 DT (Bighorns, Rebels, Limiteds, etc.). So there's no reason they couldn't start making them again. All they really need is to keep making the 6.2L SRT engine.

If the rumor is true, my guess would be that the new TRX would basically be a RHO with a swapped engine (and a couple of other minor differences in the driveline, such as an 8HP95).

The production line is the same of course, I should have clarified that it was stated that the new Electrical Architecture for the RHO is different, at least that is what is being stated by STLA and Tim Kuniskis...That could also be BS, because if it were stated they could swap back publicly, the RHO will be dead IMO... He stated that the parts and electrical system needed for the RHO engine changed completely from the V-8 1500's. That it would take new R&D to go backwards, per-se', to include resourcing the parts as manufacturers moved on in his statement. That may not be profitable if there isn't the market for 10,000ish buyers for a single year? Any less than that, production would definitely raise prices? IDK...

As far as Dan Cummins having info, of course possible, but seems others/volume dealers would have the same info? And if so, again, is he not killing their RHO sales as people would maybe wait as they prefer the TRX vs the RHO? How many times will WE FOMO buyers get teased? I'm just saying...

I've seen a bunch of utube comparisons and read the same articles everyone else has but in my real world experience the "edge" goes to the TRX. I've only ran across one Raptor-R on the road. We were nearly side by side at highway speeds when we punched it. I clearly was puling away (albeit slowly) from him until about 105-110 then the gap really started to widen as I pulled away. (Yes I know their speed limiter is a little lower but this was before it was cutting in) Most videos I've seen and articles I've read have the Raptor-R just barely beating out the TRX, in such a race, but in my real life experience, it ain't so.

Probably because when you both punched it, the R actually slowed down while waiting for that glacially slow 10spd tranny to down shift before it could accelerate. You can time those shifts with a sundial...

That ten speed is trash, always searching for a gear to shift in. I’ve heard people say, I feel like it’s never in the right gear.

 

[Jpikuls]

If true will likely approach $130K fully optioned

I wouldn’t say the 10spd in my Raptor was trash, but it wasn’t as good as the 8spd in the TRX. It did hunt a lot more for the right gear.

Any guesses on a new hp number? Could ram do a couple easy things to the current motor to get above raptor r numbers . Im sure something was planned at some point to not let them be on top very long.

One of the utube videos I saw that was made just a few weeks ago, claims the new TRX will have 720hp. Sounds reasonable.

Option two or my DC1500 idea only ways to go!

Just drop the current Redeye into the TRX. 800hp and done.

I don't see them bumping raptor r by that much this time. They may save that play for after they stop making the next round of last call super special final editions .

A new 2024 is $125K.....OTD for me is $133K....you think the price will go down?

The Raptor R's standard equipped, Vibrating Dildo Driver Seat, causes power drain when vibing at its max setting. Since most Raptor drivers use this feature constantly, no R has a chance to beat a TRX in the wild. You will literally catch these guys with their pants down, every time.

Remind me to never buy a used Raptor R.

Now it makes sense. Appreciate the insight.

 

[RedEyeTRX]

But what about all the “final” editions?

Final.....at that moment. Just like the Hellrango, never say never !

The RHO doesn't look the same at all, I thought it was a Silverado for a second.

Is RHO on the top or bottom I already forgot... (poking fun here)
TRX
RHO

I can tell.....the RHO smells like vanilla lavender air freshener !

 

[Guest10031]

You guys are funny.

 

[WDETRX]

I’d buy an RHO but men can’t compete in women’s sports anymore so all of my dreams are shot. Thanks Donnie.
