Rich, as the only other bald black man that lives in MA and drives Rivian, I get mistaken for you almost every single day. I also have property in Ocala so I’m close by EG pretty often and I get no peace when I’m there either. You’ve gotta stop making all these enemies my guy 😂 I’m living in fear out here.
This is why I watch Rich Rebuilds. Every segment has wry humor in abundance. I could watch this again just to enjoy it. Oh, and I learned a bunch about some vehicles I am not the least bit interested in, but that was fun too.
I really expected him to say something about the level of pollution recorded during comparison tests between R1T & TRX and also about price of filling them up both TRX with gas & R1T with electric charging and not even mention owning costs comparison over a longer period 5 years-10 years only then it will be fair & square in any debacle.. otherwise everything is biased..
@@poplaurentiu4148 Agreed that it would be useful to hear how much it costs per mile for EV vs TRX. Harry's Garage has the best EV reviews. He always gives an analysis of kWhr per KM in real world driving. Time will tell about maintenance costs. EV appears to win in the short term. I suspect battery failure will total most of them out vs gas which get refurbished and go until they disintegrate into a rust heap.
@@user-od9iz9cv1w Well apparently latest tech evolved so much from 10 years ago those first gen did not have pre-heating function in cold winter or to prepare the battery to accept fast charging nor cooling system in hot summer compared to latest versions.. also EV's batteries can be recycled and new batteries have far superior mixtures without rare earth metals ( Cobalt, Lithium.. ) just with aluminum anodes, Natrium phosphate sulfurs and graphene particles in combination with solid state cells might have a new meaning for all EV's old and new.. is just like swap & replace a battery on smartphones, notebooks.. etc if recycling is not available locally, old EV batteries can still be used in homes or other various applications to store electric energy .. in Japan they used old Leaf & Prius batteries to change electrically the rail-pin-mechanism and rail-lights during the night period also on mountain tunnels and old routes.. other people use them to store energy from solar roof panels or wind-mills.. so yeah.. not all EV's burn to the ground, i live in Europe and over here plenty old ev-vehicles (Zoe, Leaf, Prius, BMW i3, e-Golf first gen are still using the OE factory battery from years ago even with more than 70% degradation but with all over-the air up-dates + regular inspections and properly used working fine for taxi service, food or mail deliveries.. if we look on to ice vehicles are not all safer either considering the reported data by NHTSA in fact those are worse but plenty people miss that or major brands pay lots of money that such worse cases never reach to be released in news press..

It must have been so traumatic for them. I think the persons name is Karen. The person won the case once and was awarded maybe 400 million dollars.

Hi Uncle Rich, I love how you seem to always have a positive attitude about everything and don't let anger get a hold of you. That TRX fan club or whatever it is seems like a group of people I wouldn't want anything to do with. Working in the auto industry for the past ten years has taught me it's foolish to have an opinion about a car you've never driven. I've driven a Rivian R1T and a Raptor (not a TRX yet) and it's obvious that anyone who is a real car fan will find joy in both. Talking down about something you've never experienced is just pathetic.
I Do the same in a 80’s 3 series. Comparison of Rivian and TRX in the snow is dumb because not same tires. Probably equal weight which is laughable for the ram such a bloated pig.
the trick is to spend the money on good all season tires. the cross climate 2 is 3 peak rated and what I run year round. its a night and day difference running these tires from others in the rain
@@imchris5000 depends a lot on your climate and vehicle though. If you're talking about all seasons fwd where i live good luck lol. I run all seasons on my GX but i woulda died in my little fwd cars.

Naw the south is black America homeland because majority of black Americans (descendants of USA chattel slavery) own most of the land in the south ! All black American wealth/farm land is in the south!! He’s from New York ! So he doesn’t know much about the new south !
the Rivian only has slightly longer range when towing, but has a tiny bed, actually heavier, no auto tonneau cover that locks and secure the bed, no steer by wire, no 4 wheel steering, *slow* charging, slower acceleration, no self driving, has fragile and easily scratched body and fragile windows. Lol Oh and how many do you think will tow a trailer with their truck and even if they do how often do you think they'd do it? Oh the Rivian also has poorer infotainment display, less responsive one, too. It has less advanced tech and less over the air future updates, no dedicated superchargers network. Oh and it looks like a soccer mom's car, boring looks, does not look badass and way less cool. Ah I almost forgot a little feature the Cybertruck has, it can power your house for 3 days straight AND charge other evs.
I am so utterly unsurprised by the Ram owners responses. People never fail to meet incredibly low expectations, eh? Either way, road tripping with Rich is the best hahaha.
For towing in the TRX, just add a couple of air bags between the rear axes. Between $500-$1000 depending on if you want a built in wireless air pump. That’s what I did on my Titan XD Diesel towing a 14,000lb fifth wheel(slightly over the limit) problem solved…ish
Airbags can still be added to counter act sag from having a heavy trailer attached, thus compressing the springs. It’s obviously what he’s often using it for. It can only help level it out and alleviate some of the stress
Welcome to the RAM family I don't know if you read the comments but you need to get the Tazet DT from Z automotive and the Alfa obd with the gate bypass so your RAM experience will be elevated and you can program the vehicle to do all sorts of things and activate features that they're not previously activated from the factory
Rich's humor is next level. Never stop! The TRX is a beast!! I saw one earlier this week in matte black with the hood popped, the mechanic was in the engine bay installing a single turbo next to the SC, lol! Never enough power apparently....
I gotta say, the irony of the TRX owners questioning your masculinity over your Rivian when they almost CERTAINLY sought out a TRX to get into the "manliest" truck they can think of is pretty funny. Real men know the Geo Metro clears them all anyways.
Rich you are beyond the best you tuber, you slip in social comments so seamlessly without missing a beat, I loved the here in white are the places in America that people fitting my description are not welcome, the whole country 😂😂😂 wow. Keep up the great work.
We are getting more Teslas and EVs in general here in AR, but it is a bit slower than other areas in its growth. Also, they put interstate highways in the flatest, most boring landscapes nationwide. The coast highways are the exception to the rule. Love the channel. Also, they added a $100 yearly renewal tax on EVs here to replace the road tax loss. Other states have higher renewal fees than AR, and EV adoption is still speeding forward.
Dude , a guy showed his TRX at a job I was doing & omg it's super nice ! The customer who had it said he loved it . The most fun he had in a car in a while he said thanks for the update🤘🏼🏁
@@van_trippin5260naw, objectively, that’s two of the greatest comedians there have ever been. I’m not even a fan of either specifically, but unskilled comedians don’t sell out arenas. Bert is the exception that proves the rule. He stacks his act with good up & comers, and big names, but I still don’t understand the draw.
I couldn't/probably still can't afford the insurance + general inefficiency of a TRX... but the rebel has been without a doubt the most comfortable/best truck I've driven out of tons of 150s/1500s. Also my towing capacity is almost 5,000 lb more with a rebel etorque + 4corner vs. TRX absurdity + squishy prerunning suspension. It gets some flak but I really wouldn't discount the rebel its amazing. Damnit Rich I love your videos, keep on rockin' in the free world.
Hey Rich! Greetings from one of your old Polaris buds. Great video! I bought a Ram 1500 Limited Elite last year. I ordered it with the 3.92 gearing and it will pull 11,400 lbs. It also has 4 corner air suspension for load leveling. Unbelievably comfortable ride. Not quite the oomph of the TRX but they're different beasts. I had to chuckle when you described Oklahoma. I think you nailed it! Every other episode of the "The First 48" is shot in Tulsa. ;-)
Could be worse, here in the UK when we get snow. Literally 98% of people are wheel spinning about with summer tyres. Then complain that the local councils are not doing enough to clear the roads…
Rich..comon man.. they haven’t given you a cybertruck to review yet?! Not saying this was a rant in any way, just seems like you’ve formed an opinion without at least sampling the goods. Forget all those other guys…why they haven’t given you one yet shows how real you are. That I can truly appreciate 💯.
You are back Rich, i used to love the smart humor of your videos and those jokes took a hit after that accident but glad to see they are making their way back into your videos.
@RichRebuilds I don't blame you showing the rest of White's Truck Stop. It's a really outdated truck stop, stayed there overnight back when I was OTR. Pretty sure Buc-ee's was a better visit lol.
Rich woke up and chose violence, today. Bruh! You went in on anything and everything, but I love it and I love the content. Keep em on their toes, uncle Rich! ✊🏾😂
The biggest tow limitation with the trx is the suspension. If you add helper bags it’s perfect ! The rivian might not squat like the trx but you can’t hit a jump like you can with the trx sooo also, sport mode on the trx amplifies the super chargers noises in the cabin. I love driving and just listening to her sing ! Also I’m on the east coast with my TRX’s only a few hours in NY if you wanna meet up and do truck stuff lmk ! I got property to test the trx on also 😊
Im in the car business and we sell a good amount of pre-owned Teslas along with Rivian and other EVs. When the Ram TRX first came out dealerships were marketing them up, so people were paying between $140-$120k, where those same vehicles are worth between $70-$80k today. Thats a similar price drop to the Model S and X Plaid.
@@_Rafiki. Box Eclectic He's on house arrest and stuff and healing and building a pool bar out of an old shed now. But some of the old vid feeling with him is back. Hopefully he gets thru it all and comes back.
I just traded my 2022 Tesla M3P in on a 2023 Ford Lightning Lariat long range. 7K miles and I paid $64K. Sticker was $88K. I never need to tow long range so I love this truck. 70 year old disabled vet and so happy with the Lightning. No CT yearnings.
Richard- i don’t want to overpay for diesel, then buys a truck that needs premium fuel 😂😂 Congrats on the TRX my guy. It’s awesome truck, i have a customer with a luner or moon edition. or something like that, but interior is gorgeous. Good luck cleaning that beast 😅
We just went from 20ºF to >65ºF here in SE-VA this week, and that's why we don't need winter tires. 😂 No snow yet or anything, just some occasional cold. Michelin CrossClimate 2!!!

I just saw a cyber truck yesterday swapping wheels. It’s a cool looking truck. I would still prefer a TRX over the cyber truck. It’s a more capable truck in general.
This episode deserves a second watch if not multiple as it’s dense with humour 😂 Raptor Craptor then edited to a take off with the trailer 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I know what you did!
Rich I wanted to let you know you are a bad influence. I have been wanting a TRX since they came out, and after watching this video i wanted one even more. So a few weeks ago i took my truck in to get an oil change and saw they have a used 21 TRX that was super clean . Long story short i test drove it, and now I have a TRX and its an amazingly fun truck and its all your fault!
Richie we love you, you're right about everything in the video. The TRX is absolutely, positively way too wide (and tall) and I can not imagine driving it anywhere but the highway. I think here in europe it's technically on the verge of being considered a truck for which you need a special license to drive with. But it seems that engineering-wise it's a well built vehicle. The gas mileage is bad but considering how heavy the truck is not all that surprising?
When I moved to Texas from New England and New York I was surprised at how wide the lanes were. When I returned to NY the highway lanes seemed so tight. Yes, F250s look normal here.
Rich nailed it. Forum compares, punch the throttle cost hm $12.00, “not doing that again”, maybe Arkansas does not allow EVs, and on it goes. Most hysterical video on TH-cam.
The forum comparison was hilarious. But it also points out the huge difference between EV enthusiasts and the anti-ev crowd. Pretty much all EV owners have owned, or still own gas powered vehicles, so their personal bias doesn't seem to tie as heavily into their identities. Good job Rich.
You can easily add a little pump and 'Air Bags" in the rear that you can air up to carry heavier loads when you're towing. It's not even that expensive and is something you could easily do as a project for this channel.
Way do Americans like to drag race endurance cars? Porsche develop their GT cars mainly for the Le Mans 24h race. In fact all GT cars are made for some form of endurance racing. After all GT stands for Grand Turismo. Gran turismo means “grand tour” in Italian (in a non-automotive contexts, a grand tour is traditionally a cultural tour around Europe,) so a grand tourer is a car model that's meant to be powerful over long distances.

Welcome to the RAM family I don't know if you read the comments but you need to get the Tazet DT from Z automotive and the Alfa obd with the gate bypass so your RAM experience will be elevated and you can program the vehicle to do all sorts of things and activate features that they're not previously activated from the factory
Rich's humor is next level. Never stop! The TRX is a beast!! I saw one earlier this week in matte black with the hood popped, the mechanic was in the engine bay installing a single turbo next to the SC, lol! Never enough power apparently....
I gotta say, the irony of the TRX owners questioning your masculinity over your Rivian when they almost CERTAINLY sought out a TRX to get into the "manliest" truck they can think of is pretty funny. Real men know the Geo Metro clears them all anyways.
Also, I have never seen so many rainbow emojis in one place which is a paradox in itself.
Rich you are beyond the best you tuber, you slip in social comments so seamlessly without missing a beat, I loved the here in white are the places in America that people fitting my description are not welcome, the whole country 😂😂😂 wow. Keep up the great work.
We are getting more Teslas and EVs in general here in AR, but it is a bit slower than other areas in its growth. Also, they put interstate highways in the flatest, most boring landscapes nationwide. The coast highways are the exception to the rule. Love the channel. Also, they added a $100 yearly renewal tax on EVs here to replace the road tax loss. Other states have higher renewal fees than AR, and EV adoption is still speeding forward.
I'm not sure how that $100 tax is making a difference either way, much less making EV adoption "speed along".
It's actually slowed. I figure it'll max out at 30 percent.
Dude , a guy showed his TRX at a job I was doing & omg it's super nice ! The customer who had it said he loved it . The most fun he had in a car in a while he said thanks for the update🤘🏼🏁
You are on par with Bill Burr and Dave Chappell for laughs Rich.
That's a low bar!
@@van_trippin5260naw, objectively, that’s two of the greatest comedians there have ever been. I’m not even a fan of either specifically, but unskilled comedians don’t sell out arenas. Bert is the exception that proves the rule. He stacks his act with good up & comers, and big names, but I still don’t understand the draw.
I sold both of my TRXs and bought a 300k mile Model S p85 and it tows so much better.
Rich needs an Aerial refueling jet overhead for that Guzzler 💦
Thank you Dodge for sponsoring this video!
New Jersey continued sound effect frickin cracks me up 😂😂😂
That and the "AH!" 💀 live rent free in my head 😂
"These are the areas in white where I'm not welcome." 😂😂😂
I couldn't/probably still can't afford the insurance + general inefficiency of a TRX... but the rebel has been without a doubt the most comfortable/best truck I've driven out of tons of 150s/1500s. Also my towing capacity is almost 5,000 lb more with a rebel etorque + 4corner vs. TRX absurdity + squishy prerunning suspension. It gets some flak but I really wouldn't discount the rebel its amazing.
Damnit Rich I love your videos, keep on rockin' in the free world.
I have a Ram Warlock, 6 cylinder. Bought it for the highway range. More than 700 miles per tank. ( gas ).
Same here! I have a Rebel and just cannot afford the hellcat tax for insurance and gas ⛽️ too. My Rebel gives me so many smiles per gallon tho
Hey Rich! Greetings from one of your old Polaris buds. Great video! I bought a Ram 1500 Limited Elite last year. I ordered it with the 3.92 gearing and it will pull 11,400 lbs. It also has 4 corner air suspension for load leveling. Unbelievably comfortable ride. Not quite the oomph of the TRX but they're different beasts. I had to chuckle when you described Oklahoma. I think you nailed it! Every other episode of the "The First 48" is shot in Tulsa. ;-)
haaaa!! I thought the crash video in the beginning was going to be all serious, but somehow rich turns it into a cybertruck video segway.
Could be worse, here in the UK when we get snow. Literally 98% of people are wheel spinning about with summer tyres. Then complain that the local councils are not doing enough to clear the roads…
Trx owners forum seems like a fun bunch.
Rich..comon man.. they haven’t given you a cybertruck to review yet?!
Not saying this was a rant in any way, just seems like you’ve formed an opinion without at least sampling the goods.
Forget all those other guys…why they haven’t given you one yet shows how real you are. That I can truly appreciate 💯.
You are back Rich, i used to love the smart humor of your videos and those jokes took a hit after that accident but glad to see they are making their way back into your videos.
What accident? I missed something?
@@darekmistrz4364 if u are new , best to go back and watch his videos. You are missing out on some of his best
@RichRebuilds I don't blame you showing the rest of White's Truck Stop. It's a really outdated truck stop, stayed there overnight back when I was OTR. Pretty sure Buc-ee's was a better visit lol.
Rich woke up and chose violence, today. Bruh! You went in on anything and everything, but I love it and I love the content. Keep em on their toes, uncle Rich! ✊🏾😂
The biggest tow limitation with the trx is the suspension. If you add helper bags it’s perfect ! The rivian might not squat like the trx but you can’t hit a jump like you can with the trx sooo also, sport mode on the trx amplifies the super chargers noises in the cabin. I love driving and just listening to her sing ! Also I’m on the east coast with my TRX’s only a few hours in NY if you wanna meet up and do truck stuff lmk ! I got property to test the trx on also 😊
It doesn't matter what your budget or preference is, nobody can honestly say they don't love driving a hellcat powered vehicle.
Im in the car business and we sell a good amount of pre-owned Teslas along with Rivian and other EVs. When the Ram TRX first came out dealerships were marketing them up, so people were paying between $140-$120k, where those same vehicles are worth between $70-$80k today. Thats a similar price drop to the Model S and X Plaid.
SteVON has a new channel!! .. while on house arrest. Lol.
But glad to see him again.. I wish uncle Rich and steVON can be together again.
Me too, Search Cabana house arrest for those wondering
What's the channel name
@@_Rafiki. Box Eclectic
He's on house arrest and stuff and healing and building a pool bar out of an old shed now. But some of the old vid feeling with him is back. Hopefully he gets thru it all and comes back.
Why is he on house arrest?
I just traded my 2022 Tesla M3P in on a 2023 Ford Lightning Lariat long range. 7K miles and I paid $64K. Sticker was $88K. I never need to tow long range so I love this truck. 70 year old disabled vet and so happy with the Lightning. No CT yearnings.
Richard- i don’t want to overpay for diesel, then buys a truck that needs premium fuel 😂😂 Congrats on the TRX my guy. It’s awesome truck, i have a customer with a luner or moon edition. or something like that, but interior is gorgeous. Good luck cleaning that beast 😅
He didn’t wanna pay the premium for performance diesel parts. More expensive to upgrade compared to a petrol engine.
I'm so glad JR got me into this channel, all thanks to his support of your business :)
You the man Rich bring a smile to my face even when I’m having a bad day
We just went from 20ºF to >65ºF here in SE-VA this week, and that's why we don't need winter tires. 😂 No snow yet or anything, just some occasional cold. Michelin CrossClimate 2!!!
“I was with my girlfriend in the Rivian… and my wife called” - I haven’t watched the videos in a while, I must have missed some life adjustments here…
I miss the old Rich. (3-4 years ago)
I get enough of the race card on the tv
@@joeblow5037😢😢😢😢🥺🥺🥺👶👶👶👶🧑🍼🧑🍼🧑🍼🧑🍼
His reality is not your reality we get it. But if you are saying that Rich does not experience racism in America then I have some clown shoes for you to try on. @@joeblow5037
I just saw a cyber truck yesterday swapping wheels. It’s a cool looking truck. I would still prefer a TRX over the cyber truck. It’s a more capable truck in general.
as a black person of Color and a welder i was Before Marques Brownlee in the tesla factory . ok ? srs
are you a tesla employee or just someone contracted?
@@axeavier kids had to use the restroom there. took a look around the factory floor . pretty Neat
A black person of colour?
I'm all for "owning a 911 Turbo S and a R1T" becoming a new black stereotype 🤣🤣
I'm jealous of MKBHD
He got the awesome weekend car and the fun/cool super practical truck for daily
Rich has officially convinced me that he’s the marques brownlee from the future 😂
"This is the United States....these are the areas in white where I'm not welcome".........continue keeping it real, Rich!!!!!!
This episode deserves a second watch if not multiple as it’s dense with humour 😂 Raptor Craptor then edited to a take off with the trailer 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I know what you did!
just buy the cybertruck we know you want it
Why would he buy that trash?
Uncle Rich is into that Alternative Lifestyle ❤
Rich I wanted to let you know you are a bad influence. I have been wanting a TRX since they came out, and after watching this video i wanted one even more. So a few weeks ago i took my truck in to get an oil change and saw they have a used 21 TRX that was super clean . Long story short i test drove it, and now I have a TRX and its an amazingly fun truck and its all your fault!
Great content ❤
Eye opening fuel cost calculation in the end 👍👍
I've been seeing a lot of TRX around. It really stands out. I've driven it before: was a bit too exhausting to drive here in NYC.
Richie we love you, you're right about everything in the video. The TRX is absolutely, positively way too wide (and tall) and I can not imagine driving it anywhere but the highway. I think here in europe it's technically on the verge of being considered a truck for which you need a special license to drive with. But it seems that engineering-wise it's a well built vehicle. The gas mileage is bad but considering how heavy the truck is not all that surprising?
good cold weather towing stuff .. especially the fuel price knowledge-nugget near the end
Sick truck but make sure to lock your doors at night lol. My dads trx got stolen a couple months ago just a few towns over from you.
When I moved to Texas from New England and New York I was surprised at how wide the lanes were. When I returned to NY the highway lanes seemed so tight. Yes, F250s look normal here.
I expect nothing less from TRX forums. They’re so stuck on kid rock and the orange man.
"The first person of color allowed in the factory..."
Dude, I literally died.
Next video… I was wrong about the Cybertruck 😊
Rich nailed it. Forum compares, punch the throttle cost hm $12.00, “not doing that again”, maybe Arkansas does not allow EVs, and on it goes. Most hysterical video on TH-cam.
The forum comparison was hilarious. But it also points out the huge difference between EV enthusiasts and the anti-ev crowd. Pretty much all EV owners have owned, or still own gas powered vehicles, so their personal bias doesn't seem to tie as heavily into their identities. Good job Rich.
😂😂😂 you’re a great writer rich. You might have something here
The TRX forum comments do make it look like TRX owners are definitely compensating.
Lotta insecurity on show there.
Rich, you have to tell waze that you see a cop........
Congrats brother! I have a 2021 and 2024 TRX and I wouldnt want anything else... I came from a Raptor and I'll never look back..
Who cares what the MPG is if it's fun to drive
Smiles per gallon
You can easily add a little pump and 'Air Bags" in the rear that you can air up to carry heavier loads when you're towing. It's not even that expensive and is something you could easily do as a project for this channel.
I'd love to see you do an Edison Motors swap. That'll be good!
its the sense of humor in story telling that has me coming back
It was the white in his beard that kept him safe on that trip 👍
Way do Americans like to drag race endurance cars? Porsche develop their GT cars mainly for the Le Mans 24h race. In fact all GT cars are made for some form of endurance racing. After all GT stands for Grand Turismo. Gran turismo means “grand tour” in Italian (in a non-automotive contexts, a grand tour is traditionally a cultural tour around Europe,) so a grand tourer is a car model that's meant to be powerful over long distances.
Drag strips are very common compared to any other tracks here
Still awaiting Stevon to surprise us here
He's got a few videos up - cabana house arrest 👍
The majority of tracks are 1/8 of a mile , also the Rivian headlights are a deal killer.
