RAM, which Chrysler spun off from Dodge in the late 2000s, has been producing top-quality trucks for decades. The RAM 1500 TRX is the epitome of the company’s work: the truck is a perfect blend of power, capability, and style.

This vehicle is designed to compete with other brands’ flagship vehicles, like the Ford Raptor. The TRX stands out above all of them with its Hellcat motor, elite off-roading performance parts, and overall sense of rugged dependability.

Why is the TRX Motortrend’s 2021 Truck of the Year?

What’s Under the Hood?

The RAM 1500 TRX’s engine is one of the most powerful engines that Iowans will find on a commercially available vehicle. A supercharged 6.2L Hemi V8 powers this beastly truck. This engine outputs a tremendous 702 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. of torque! The power that’s generated by this engine is enough to send the TRX from 0 to 60 in just 3.7 seconds.

The TRX is designed as a performance vehicle, not a workhorse truck. That said, it can still perform well on the job site if need be: the TRX’s towing capacity is 8,100 pounds, and the truck has a payload capacity of 1,310 pounds.

Whether you’re driving around Marshalltown, IA with the family or hitting backroads trails with your crew, the RAM 1500 TRX simply does it all.

Performance Off-Roading Parts

The team at RAM designed the TRX to perform extremely well when you take it off the beaten path. The reinforced steel frame sits atop 35″ all-terrain tires on 18″ wheels.

The truck’s suspension system enjoys more than 13″ of travel, which means that Iowans can take on the harshest off-roading in the TRX.

Massive 15″ front brakes, heavy underbody plating, and an electronic-locking rear differential round out the slew of performance parts found in the RAM 1500 TRX.

An All-American Vehicle

RAM has designed a truly awesome truck. The engine is enough to make any gearhead swoon, and drivers will have a blast in this truck, both on and off the road.

The interior of the truck is refined, and can be customized with the TR1 and TR2 packages. Regardless of the options that Story County, IA area residents may go for, the TRX comes with a 12″ touchscreen for infotainment control and a slew of available safety features.

These include lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, and adaptive cruise control.
