2021 Ram TRX
#41
I've owned Ram pickups (9 of em)...for over 20 years...if they fuck up Ram...I just might have to look to Toyota...
I’ve had three Dodge/Ram products since 2004 (04 Dodge Ram 2500, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and now a 2021 TRX). I also owned a 2020 Raptor for one year. If they screw up Ram the next truck will be either a Ford Super Duty Tremor with the 7.3L gas or Chevy Silverado 2500 ZR2 with a gas V8.

I wasn't impressed with anything Ram introduced recently. Gonna keep my '16 till the wheels fall off.
700hp TRX isn’t impressive?

Not when your hellcat goes way faster. I need my truck to haul not go fast.

How old is the 911? If you continually update a great platform it can live forever. They just kept riding it. All new cars are really heavy with all of the crash systems built in.

The next generation cars are probably alpha based. They're not strong enough to handle any kind of horsepower. It was tried and they twisted like a pretzel.
The Giulia Quadrifoglio is a heck of a nice car. It should be, starting at $81k. I cringe to think what the maintenance/repair costs are on that Ferrari-based motor. At 2.9 liters, 505hp is a stout number. Definitely not a drag car, though.

I drove one. It is very impressive, doing everything well. Reliability is suspect, though.

Nice but unreliable. Not something that Americans buy.

I agree. It's a tough sell in the USA over a German car in the same price range.

The majority of German cars are now garbage.
We were diehard Mercedes people. Wife drove a couple models a few years ago and never finished the test drives. Said that they were pieces of shit and not worth the $$$$.

My wife said the same a few years ago when she was car-shopping. She would go on test-drives while I waited in the showroom. The look on the salesman's face was priceless when he asked her what she thought.

Simply too expensive for what you get. If i was rolling in it and had a MB dealership next door, maybe.

I have driven one too and it felt really alive and easy to maneuver with good thrust. I remember thinking it was probably faster than my Scat Pack that I owned at the time, but not by a big amount. Could fling it around with my fingers on the steering wheel, don’t have to strong arm it like you do the Challenger, even though I don’t mind that. There could be hope for the future with that chassis and a hot tune on the Hurricane 6, Why can’t they make a challenger-looking body on it? Crazy tires on them stock, pencil eraser soft. I guess they don’t last 10k miles and are crazy $$$

You know I can’t believe I’m saying this but Kia and Hyundai and especially Genesis have some of the best styling and most innovative design going on in the business right now IMO. Especially considering they are such cheap cars.

Koreans know there tech and engineering. Their SPA are some of the most advanced in the world. Cars, computers, etc... all grow out of basic engineering and attention to.detail.

100% agree. Kia has come a LOOONNG way in 10 years. Telluride is my favorite segment SUV. Looks and build quality and even interior design is not bad. The EV6 GT (576hp) is very nice. I drove one and the wife will likely buy it for the day to day driver. I am not anti-EV. I am anti EV for all out performance though. But that's just me.
