Not always. The Rivian will kick its a$$ and it doesn’t even have a gas tank. [emoticon].

I think it's safe to say anybody dropped over $100k on a truck doesn't need to care about fuel economy.

I think it's a cool truck just like I think the TRX is a cool truck. Neither is something I'd ever consider personally buying, though.

The RAM TRX has just been put on notice. With good power to weight ratio the Raptor R is estimated 0-60 in 4 sec and will possibly be the last Super Truck (ICE) to roam the streets and off roads. If it wasn't for the TRX this truck would have never existed.
