    The 2023 Ford F-150 Raptor R ($146,005 starting in Canada, $109,145 starting in the US) and the Ram 1500 TRX ($108,790 starting in Canada, $83,890 starting in the US) are ready for some big, loud, supercharged drag races. While both of these trucks are more intended for off road Baja-type performance driving, Thomas and James couldn’t resist putting them beside each other on the drag strip. And after all, there may be one muddy surprise waiting after the pavement races.
    Stats-wise, this should be an interesting set of races. The F-150 Raptor R has a mighty 700 horsepower, but the Ram has slightly more with 702 hp. It also has a slight torque advantage over the Ford, with 650 lb-ft compared to the Raptor R’s 640 lb-ft. However, the F-150 benefits from a significant weight advantage - being 400 lbs lighter - and a stronger power to weight ratio can do wonders for performance driving. We hope you enjoy the episode! Thanks for watching. SUBSCRIBE!
    A huge thank you to @rubytherocket_ for lending us their TRX

    I’m a TRX fan, but you have to give Ford props for finally putting a V8 back in the Raptor. If I had a TTV6 version I’d be looking for a trade in for the R right away, for the sound alone. Honestly, I’d take either of these,they are both very impressive, and a hairs width apart in the stats.

    I have had the opportunity to drive both the Gen 3 Raptor 37 and the TRX. The V8 in the Raptor is a very necessary upgrade IMO to compete with the TRX. The price difference is the kicker. I've sourced the Raptor R locally and I'm looking at $150K. I have a 2023 TRX on order fully optioned Level 2 with sunroof for $89K as there are RAM dealers that will sell at invoice.

      All Predator Raptors come with 37" tires, the TRX has 35"s, it has just a tad less mass to get moving than the Raptor. However when off roading, those larger tires allow it to get over any obstacle using less torque, the increased foot print of the bigger diameter tire gives it more traction.

      Ultimately, the price difference only comes down to ADM on the Ford. All fully loaded TRX would cost the same the R, which by default, comes fully loaded. Whether $30K - $50K ADM is worth it, that’s subjective. The R looks cool to me personally. But I’m keeping my TRX.

      I put my TRX through a half-flooded quarry almost every week. I bought it because it’s better than the Raptor in every way. The Raptor R only managed to semi-par the TRX in acceleration performance, but for WAY more money, and a much shittier interior. Plus the gen 3’s durability off-road is very suspect right now
