Bob Howard Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram invites you to compare the rugged power of the new 2021 Ram TRX to the Ford Raptor. If you are seeking a high-performance, legit off-road pickup you honestly only have 2 choices: the TRX and the Ford Raptor. While it is accurate that every brand has an off-road pickup, none can match the horsepower and strength of these 2 heavyweights. Yes, Ford was first with the Raptor but we believe we’ve surpassed them with the RAM TRX. This head-to-head matchup is years in the making, so let’s get to the specs to figure out the king of performance pickup trucks.
Previously driven by a rowdy V8, the Ford Raptor has a 3.5L EcoBoost V6 under the hood that generates 450hp and 500lb-ft. of torque. It is a powerful setup, but it’s lacking the visceral orchestra that can only come from a large V8. The TRX is driven by a Supercharged 6.2L HEMI V8 engine that has 702hp and 650lb-ft of torque. The Hellcat engine is aptly titled because the combo of the whine of the supercharger paired with the V8 sounds truly demonic. It’s absolutely unrivaled and needs to be experienced personally.
The design of the Ford Raptor and RAM TRX is a little different when measured against your normal truck. The Ford Raptor features Trail Control™, 17-inch wheels, Electronic-Locking Rear Differential with 4.10 Rear-End, and Off-Road FOX Live Valve Racing Shox™. The TRX features drive modes, 18-inch alloy wheels, large 35-inch tires, and the all-new Bilstein® Black Hawk® e2 shock system. This new technology is the most refined system we have ever used on a production pickup truck and it’s only on the TRX.
As powerful as these trucks are, they are also appointed with notable technology. The Ford Raptor has a Rear Camera, AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™, and Curve Control as just a part of its standard tech. You can move up to technology like a 360-degree camera, Pro Trailer Backup Assist, Adaptive Cruise, a Blind Spot Information System, and more. The TRX Launch Edition will come with Adaptive Cruise, Deployable Bed-Step, Dual-Pane Panoramic Sunroof, and Lane Keep Assist. Available upgrades include a Heads-Up Display, a Trailer Reverse Steering Control System, Surround Camera, and more. When examining all the factors it’s clear to conclude that the TRX is the new King of performance pickup trucks.

I have always got great service from Chris and the team at Bob Howard. I don’t take my car to anywhere but here
It was a great visit. Hayden Marchant was my sells person. He was awesome. Answer every question I asked. Was not pushing for the sell but was very knowledgeable about everything that was involved on the truck and brok it down for and explain it in great detail. Bob howard auto group should be proud of having a great individual like this on there team. Thank you Hayden for everything
The dealership itself is fine. It's clean and they have some amenities for those that are waiting. I've never purchased a vehicle with them and I've only used their service department. One recommendation I would give would be enough loaner vehicles for extended service. The price of a Wagoneer would put it into the luxury vehicle category and to not have the option of a loaner vehicle for service has me considering going back to Lexus, Audi or BMW. My service advisor, Blaine, was great and very helpful.

Took jeep in for a rattle front right end .. said left rear brake light I thought was the clip.. first try … almost a week ended up with boots and a new brake housing. Paid almost 1900 for not what I asked for. Driving off the lot .. rattle in front right and by the time I’m home left rear light out.. took it back.. took another 6 days .. they ran a through all inspection showing I need new plugs. Brakes and what I called the clip to the rear tail light, needs replaced . Total cost everything cost 4700 .. ohh this time they found a recall .. why wasn’t that found the first time.. paid another 400 .. rattle gone .. rear brake light still doesn’t work. Won’t be back
