The look and hearing of Tommy being terrified the entire video PROVES this is the truck for me!🤣🤣 In all seriousness, Ram made some big claims of the TRX, but all manufacturers do. However, with them setting up this road course AND actual REAL rock-crawling (and not ride-alongs with the engineer driving) shows that Ram really backed it up. I'm super excited to see more of this truck!
That wasn’t rock crawling that was a rock road,to the left or right would’ve been more like rock crawling.The goat road as Tommy called if you pay attention to the speedometer they were only going between 22-29 mph that’s not desert running either.The jumping was ok but suspension was bottoming out hard you could here it hit,if you know what to listen for.Im not sure this video will convert a Raptor owner to change over.8-12mpg pretty sucky too.Hopefully someone will torture this truck like RAM claims you can.Thats what the viewer,potential buyer wants to see.
That rock crawl course would have been easier if they let some air out of the tires. But Ram wanted to show it’s true potential like a regular driver would going from street to off-roading. Great video!
Some Body I agree rock road nothing special to drive up that no hole to drop a tire into,if they wanted to impress people I’d rather seen them try the loose rocks on either side.
Ford left Ram and GM in the dust 10 years ago... I am surprised it too Ram this long to come out with something and GM still hasnt got the memo.. GM must still be using Internet Explorer.
I’ve actually owned three F-150’s and a 2016 ram, and I just bought a 2020 Silverado 2 weeks ago. Ford and Ram just don’t do it for me and I’m loving the Chevy so far.
Thanks to RAM for setting the bar high. Later the Hummer(over-priced but very nice). Waiting to see what Ford does with the Raptor. Oh Santa, we have a lot to talk about this year!
Can you imagine owners running this truck and all the gold coins rattling around the cup holder when they go over the rumble strips beside the highway. Haha
It’s sooo good to see DAD happy. I’ve been watching his videos since I was younger and it’s rewarding to see him smirk and excited about a truck. Good job guys. Take good care of dad Tommy.
When I watch these videos, I clearly learn/understand more about the vehicles, but one of my biggest observations is that Roman is a good dad. The success of this channel is a direct byproduct of the father and son relationship/chemistry. They approach things together and ping-pong ideas off one another. It's like being in the vehicle with my own dad. Showcasing new vehicle models is very cool, but there will always be something newer and better coming down the manufacturers pipeline. The time spent bonding and the memories will last forever.
Well the rich folks will have a blast with this truck. Us regular folks can watch em from the sideline. Ram won’t be able to make me fast enough I’m thinking. Awesome truck
Roman needs to get an inversion table. You can thank me later. Best thing ever for anybody of any age. As long as you don't have high blood pressure or some eye ailments you can invert safely. I recommend the Teeter brand. Literally, it's the best thing I've ever bought.
Long live the new King, the TRX. But will the Gen 3 Raptor become the usurper to take the Crown back? Awesome video TFL, as always, you guys killed it. I sure do hope Ford wakes up from it's twin turbo hangover and sober ups to a proper Supercharger.
Don’t think so. The rear locker was on and both rear wheels were spinning. You can see the brake based front diff control moving power around and braking the outside wheel but to no avail just looked like a slick spot. He just needed to air down the tires and it would have dug in and climbed out of there no problem. Ram wanted to show a real world transition and left the tires inflated.
@@Spankymf no front locker it uses the brakes as a BS quasi locker. Honestly not a big deal the TRX is the wrong truck to crawl rocks with anyway. With That extra width and no front locker with independent front suspension it’s not in its element. Get a Jeep if you want a rock crawler and if a full size pickup is necessary the power wagon is still best with solid front/rear axles, front/rear locker, and electronic disconnecting sway bars
I’m jelly of y’all for getting to experience that, Great job! I wish they would have let you show a comparison of the PW going up the same hill (also jumping the PW 😜).
@@epap1375 Fair enough, so are Jeeps, but their Rubicon series are well-proven off-road monsters. TFL off-roading videos are notoriously anemic, as if they all took lessons from James May. But I want to see both trucks at wide-open throttle through a Baja style gauntlet, crawling in trail-mode over loose, rocky terrain, and then handle slippery, wet, muddy terrain. The RAM seems to be much more front-heavy.
TRX is the Raptor destroyer from every review I’ve watched or read so far. It’s even faster than Ram claimed it was going to be from the Motortrend testing results.
Now they need to do peasant version of this. With 6.4l engine that has upgraded lifters and no cylinder deactivation. In sub cheapest trim that has no theatre screen in it and concert hall sound. Also no seats made from unicorn eyelids...
Would like the Raptor taken on the same exact course and see which one causes you to stutter less while you’re talking so we can know for sure which one soaks up the bumps better, because that looked quite rough
@@squidinkRC Yeah you have a point there as the new one with a v-8 may start at such prices too. I just remember over this spring there were some Raptors on the lot priced at 58K which is why I made that statement. But I may have been looking at the base models
“Oh my god dad stop...” while dad laughs and had fun. 😂 Thats awesome. Love the off-road videos you guys put out; the father and son dynamic makes the video that much better. And hey, nothing wrong with getting older, just edit the errors out. 😆
I had a 2020 Ram Rebel Hydraulic Blue 3.0L eco Diesel I bought it last month they same looks/Sport so amazing powerful especially driving in Highway Save gas
The xfer case they're using has to be locked in 4WD at all times(similar to the Trackhawks). It was designed specifically to handle the power of the Hellcat.
nose heavy a bit on that jump, eh? It's nice to see that after 10 years someone has come with a Raptor competitor. Can't wait to see head-to-head with 2021 Raptor with V8.
I'm interested to see if GM brings a full size ZR2 (ZRX?) to market. I love the ZR2's multimatic shocks. Beef up the Silverado's frame and add a just about any V8 (they have a very wide range when you start considering Z28, ZR1, and Z06 drivetrains). I think that could be the best bang-for-buck halo truck.
Roman looked like he was having a good time. But Roman you need to wait until Tommy's voice gets just a little higher screaming for you to stop. I hope you had fun filming this, sure looked like fun.

Also they may have wanted to keep the pressure up for the faster stuff and jumping, and not have to adjust it before and after the crawling.
No telling but IMO, those tires were aired down. Watch the flex.

I feel for you tommy. 😂
I wish i was rich enough to buy one of these, and ACTUALLY USE IT APPROPRIATELY!!!
I would love to see this in a baja race with the raptor!!!
Good for Ram for setting up a real test ground
Looks like a real beast!
Sounds good too!
I could watch your TRX videos all day! Great job as always. More please.

Hummer is bullshit. Electric offroad car is nod good solution. You can't go for long trip, or you need to take gas agregat to recharge the battery.

I would love to see the suspension tested against a Raptors suspension! How well do they handle speed compared to the Raptors?

Tommy's obviously a very smart dude. Always enjoy his insight & commentary. But c'mon Roman, you gotta put an edge on that kid!
"Our heads are not being thrown around" As their heads are being thrown around. LOL
“Oh my god dad stop”. “Sorry step son”.
You can’t beat a v8 especially with a supercharger no matter what v6 or how big the turbos are
Absolutely love the TRX and that supercharger whine!
This is one of the greatest videos of a new truck you guys have made, especially with a truck that has high anticipations like this

You can tell there going right after the raptor but soon the raptor is going to come back
Dads just talking smiling Tommy is looking for napkins to clean up his seat.
Awesome, but the Raptor appears to be more nimble and zippy in the dirt.

Move over Ford F150 Raptor, theres a new king in town. Specially since Ford wont put a supercharged V8 into it.
word is that Ford will release a special edition Raptor that will have the supercharged 5.2 from the GT500
