Ram Rebel TRX Reveal Date- 8/17/20

[Boris]

I could be one, if a TRX interested me.

Fewer options means less weight, which equals better performance, and costs less.
An added bonus is that there's less to go wrong.

Heck, I usually try to get rid of mandatory stuff, not add more.

I actually don't care for leather. The cloth in my Ram has taken a beating and still looks newish many years later. I'll go with cloth.
The 12" screen is cool but then again, i don't need it. Right there are probably the two most expensive interior options. Im sure i'll get a few options but i don't want a 90k truck

Matching spare wheel.....interesting

Butt coolers for the back seats, that’s a first for Dodge/RAM, right? Did they have that in the Trackhawk?

Think about how many apparently manage to curb their wheels on a low car. Now imagine them in a taller pickup and the matching spare wheel makes sense.

Then again, ""Matching spare wheel" may only meant that it's the same diameter.

I haven't removed that dead weight from my 'Hawk yet, so I don't know.

The Limited Ram 1500s have that (optional).

The new Ram 1500 has that option and my 2019 Limited has it.

Limited 1500? That should be in the dictionary as the definition of redundancy.

?? There's Limited 2500s and 3500s too. Idk if they have optional rear seat ass coolers though...

3.55 Gears... I was expecting 4.10 gears. Thoughts?

I was thinking 3.92s or something as well. We have no clue if this is a fully spec'd out TRX either. Could be more options we aren't seeing that are available.

They also may have decided that those were the most optimal gears as well. We will know more Monday!

 

[MaxCarnage]

Rumor running around is that the 392 engine will be standard starting around $56k. That trim will compete well to the raptor for its current price, especially if they can keep the power around 485hp (unlike the power wagon).

no so sure I the less weight. I had an mustang with no options and and didn't weigh any less then others with a lot of options

 

[vortecd]

don't give up an option you would like for that reason. Back in the day where options were power steering, a/c, electric windows then it would be lighter but that is all standard stuff. Most the wiring and such is still in the car even if it doesn't have the part

you don't need gear when you lots of hp and torque

 

[vortecd]

Looks that way and guess the true and tried 392 is the standard set up to keep her in good pricing. And wouldn’t be a bad option IMO.

Guess I thought all TRX's have the 6.2 just like all the Raptors have the 3.5

 

[ChargerChallenger]

Think their playing the game like the Challengers, Chargers, Jeep and Durango giving you the options of motors.

"Coat Hooks"...I'm in!!! have to chuckle at how manufacturers have every bit of plastic listed as a "feature".

Seriously, on the 12" screen, which I had in my 2019 Ram 1500 Longhorn (I traded for a Rubicon Recon), it killed enjoying the truck. It was the coolest looking thing to have on the dash...until it would continuously go black screen, cycle through updates that lasted forever, etc. Love/hate relationship...stunning looks and great when acting right, you just want to throw it out of the truck when it's acting up.

392? I didn't anticipate that coming...definitely something to think about. Nahhh...the full monty...but be good to do it for an option.

The 2019 Ram 1500 Longhorn (love the name) cowboy truck I owned had heated and ventilated reclining rear seats. The heated rear was standard with the Longhorn package. The ventilated was part of option Level 1 Equipment Group, which had things like power running boards, big ass 12" screen, HK 19 speaker sound, wireless charging...etc.

The best by far is the heads up display. It is a game changer for Dodge
