    I own a 2nd Gen Raptor, when you buy something and drive it day to day, your view of what is important changes. The 20-22mpg for cruising on the highway is a pretty big perk when you go on trips, or a general commute too. While having a significant off road capability when you choose to do so.

    Choosing power and acceleration for vehicles that are designed for off road capabilities is a very poor conclusion. You should test them in the environment they were developed for and choose the best one. That’s are many off road situations that power and acceleration are your worst enemy and weight and suspension are your best friend.

      Jackyl Smith I fully understand your point. However both are fairly similar in there off road capabilities. Strong suspension with plenty flex, similar weight tho I think trx may be heavier and all the different drive modes which are very effective. Similar gearing ratios and low range gearing I would assume. The power is what differentiates them. There are certain circumstances off road where you need to absolutely power out of a situation and that's where the trx comes into its own. I'm not saying trx is better off road than raptor but just showing that power does make a huge difference

    • @chaseshelton1

      @@anthonyramdin1037 Tho the thing is off roading is not about just power, and when it coms down to it, too power and too much weight is actually bad. The Raptor beats the TRX on any race because it's lighter and it has quick and easy power delivery, it's super nimble and quick around corners and certain areas where the TRX would have to brute force itself through, not to mention the amount of gasoline you would use, the Raptor would still be going down the trail while the TRX is dead in the water. So many factors they ignored, not to mention the Raptor beats the TRX in pretty much every category, same way the TRX did with the 2 gen raptor and everyone praised the heck out of it than so why isn't the raptor getting an advantage here ?

    Couple things, I just got the 21 Raptor on 37s. It doesn’t require premium fuel. I’m sure it will run better on it. But when I was deciding between these 2, I was having a hard time thinking about paying for premium fuel knowing how bad they both drink gas. The other thing that put me over the top was all the infotainment issues I had with my 20 Ram 1500. I had a lot of touchscreen issues and Apple Car Play issues and knew that if I spent that much on a TRX and had those issues I would lose my mind.

    On the tires, you guys should mention too, the Ford has 124R 8-ply tires vs the TRX having 127R 10-ply tires. This equates to a higher load rating on the TRX. Plus a theoretical less chance at puncture off-roading at high speeds in the TRX. 😎

      LMAO, not apples to apples?!?!? Why because RAM dropped a big V8 powered supercharged engine into it? Something Ford never would’ve done had RAM not done it first. Even then the V8 version they plan on releasing won’t be mass produced like the TRX is, you’ll be one of the lucky few to get your hands on one. Please…. I swear you fanboys are all the same, look for any reason to diss the competition or come up with anything to say isn’t fair. These are the top two trucks of each company, RAM won. Hell the 2nd gen Raptor is faster than the 3rd gen on 37’s. I’ve been waiting for a TRX since the concept but I’ll admit I love the looks of the Raptor but just can’t stand the v6. Was disappointed they dropped a v6 in it.

      @@dolivares81 I like the styling of the Raptor better too. The Raptor is what started the off road super truck category and with a V8. It didn't have any competition. Then they gave it more power but with a V6 probably due to their long term goals with the motor in other platforms. It will always be a back and forth driven by trying to out perform the other company. I am glad the TRX came out because it forced Ford to step it up. I was pretty disappointed when they went through all the work to redesign the 3rd gen Raptor but did not add power to the ecoboost.

    Both are cool but more toys than trucks.
    BTW, not a fan of either brand, but I just configured a Ram Rebel online and RAM is basically approving dealer markups. This is what they say under the price: “Pricing provided may vary significantly between website and dealer as a result of supply chain constraints. Pricing is nonbinding and does not constitute an offer. Contact your dealer for updated vehicle pricing.” While I can’t stand dealers that apply markups, RAM is not only acknowledging that it’s happening, they’re condoning it. That just took them out of my selection process.

    My perspective is that the review had some good comparisons, but these trucks are not in their element. There was no Baja style test done where you’re going over woops, to show which vehicle’s suspension fades less after extended use, or if those 37s soak up the holes better to help keep a higher constant speed while off-roading. There was no mention of suspension travel or ground clearance. You can have 700 hp all day long, but if you can’t mash the throttle cuz your suspension and tires can’t handle the woops and the jumps, then what’s the point? I get it though. It’s hard to find something like that in Colorado maybe. Colorado is rock crawling, mountain climbing, approach/departure angle central. But that’s not where shocks that have bypasses and additional reservoirs for cooling, really shine, is it? For that you need speed… and woops. Hope to see you out in Southern California’s Ocotillo Wells, Glamis sand dunes and/or Johnson Valley for a REAL test of what these trucks were designed for. 😉

    It's a great review. If I wanna drag race I'd buy a TRX , but any other reason (lots of reasons) Raptor hands down, especially if we look at the MPG. I browsed trough most post below for one I miss the Chevy guys to bash both trucks. The folks who loves the loud TRX, will age to appreciate almost soundless muffler on a 2440 mile road trip and stopping only about every 440 miles to fill up (500 + in my case). TRX is so loud you need to stop more often just to clear your head and I think the gas station is the ZEN zone. Don't make me wrong TRX hands down a super truck and beats the Raptor in many ways. But not all the way. For now I'll stick with my 250 SD DSI custom Powerstroke on 37s even less loud and better MPG over both.

    What andre said about the suspension on the trx being better is on road driving. But off road, a lot of people who actually use these trucks to go desert running all say the raptor suspension and handling is just more refined and more confident. Also has to do with how heavy the trx is and even watching the trucks you can see the trx leaning side to side and dipping and the body roll and movement compared to the raptor. I would still choose the trx myself cause of that power but for high speed off roading I’d say the fox suspension is better on the raptor and fits the truck better than the bilsteins on the trx.
