As the owner of a 2021 TRX I agree. Sticker price was $85K and I paid 79K when I ordered my truck. The 2024 TRX is essentially my truck with the exception of an all digital dash and UConnect 5. I don’t see how those two changes justify over $30,000 in that short of time.
Now when comparing...
Ram decided to not only match the R price, but go right on by with it.
Base price is now $95,000. My 2021’s base price was $70,325. I love my truck, but a 2024 TRX is not $25,000 nicer than my 2021!
I went from a 2020 Raptor to my 2021 TRX. I’m very happy with my choice, but you might not be. I think you need to start with taking a TRX and a 3rd Gen Raptor for a drive.
Honestly, if the used truck market hadn’t gotten ridiculous in 2021 and I didn’t find a dealer to order a TRX for below...
If you can stand the wait time, you can order a TRX for around $10,000ish off sticker. TRX’s on the lot tend to be closer to MSRP. That’s still considerably less than 90% of the Raptor R’s with big mark ups.
Sounds to me like you have a heavy foot. My Raptor would get 16mpg easy, and my TRX with in town driving is around 11mpg. A lighter foot will yield better fuel economy.
This thread became a lot more real to me in recent weeks. My dad was diagnosed with Stage 4 Liver Cancer that spread to his Gallbladder and spots on his lower lungs. With chemo only he has 11.8 months to live (only a doctor would say 11.8 months instead of 10-12 months). If the immunotherapy...
Every year the wife and I take a trip to San Juan Islands. Below is the fuel economy in the TRX and my old Raptor. We stayed a few days longer when we had the TRX which is why you see more miles.
My TRX is my long road tripper. I say take your R. It’s going to be comfortable. Probably crappy fuel economy like the TRX, but a 700hp truck on long road trips is awesome.
I really like the Super Duty Tremor. I just built a similar color on line but in the King Ranch Flavor with the 7.3L Gas. Needless to say, I had expensive taste!
