You did mean "build time and confirmed pricing", right?
There's nothing confirmable about FCA vehicle's build time, I've noticed.

Got the build to work and I am at 84K keeping it not too radical.
I basically optioned out the TRX to match my Raptor. I’d have a hard time giving up some of the creature comforts now that I’m spoiled (Heated/Cooled Seats, Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Spot Monitoring). I added the Heads Up Display because it looked cool. And yes, I‘m a 12 year old at heart.

I just spent most of my building a TRX off of Rams website, digging threw all the options and specs. First off anyone who bitches about towing or top speed is looking at the wrong pickup. That said the towing isn't bad (I just want to tow light toys), so it will be efficient enough. The top speed is a bit of a bummer, that it's governed at 118mph (because of the tires). I read that the Raptor is governed at 107mph though. From my understand this is all due to the factory tires the TRX runs. I'm sure a factory tune will get you more. With that said the truck will be off road quick, NOT street quick. Might not be too bad, stop light to stop light, lol.

I am disappointed in a couple things. Lack of colors (In the reveal it sounded like they had plans for more though), expensive add-ons, and they put a cover over the supercharger!! lol

Overall I love it though. Tomorrow I'll be talking with my dealer more on pricing. If the prices are too high I'll wait until they fall down.

Not a cover really, just a giant-ass airbox! (Effect is the same though).

Does anyone know if it will have adjustable air suspension? Since it's running an entirely different setup than a Rebel, wasn't sure if it was a standard option or if because of the new bilstein blackhawks it just can't happen.

Hmm. Wonder how fast my V6 1500 would be with a ProCharger (and maybe some Nitrous)?

It'd definitely be cheaper, and far more stealth.

No air suspension from what I have read.

So far from what I understand the TRX will be 82.2 inches high and 88 inches wide. There's been some conflicting areas on that though according to other spots at RAM where it lists dimensions. I have a standard 7 foot garage, after trim I have about 83.25 inches. So if that number doesn't include the antenna, then it won't fit in my garage and likely not other standard garages either. Width and length are tight but not near as tight at height in my garage.

Going to be a tight fit! lol

Probably a good thing. I've read bad reviews of it (especially older system) in cold weather.

They'd have to tinker with the standard setup quite a bit to get 14 inches (I think it was) of travel out of it.

14 inches rear, 13 inches front. Yeah, I was thinking it would be gone since this setup is unique.

The real question is what kind of ADM’s will we see?

Selfishly I hope we see a repeat of when the Hellcat first came out:
- 2015: Not enough built
- 2016: Surplus of TRX’s built
- 2017: Leftover models from the previous year on the lot means $10,000 or more discounts on unsold models

This scenario is realistically the only way I’ll be able to afford the TRX.

Saw someone on the Ram forum ask if $15k ADM he was quoted was normal/expected. Some of these fucking dealers....o_O:mad:

I wouldn’t jump the gun yet this is not a limited run truck and yes some dealers will try the ADM and if that’s the case I’ll sit it out. I sat out the Raptor until they discounted them and not a lot but now way ADM. And If my selling dealer says ADM I’m out and these things will be built I’m sure 2-3 years and I can wait.
