FIRST DRIVE: Hennessey Mammoth 1000 - The Most Powerful Truck In The World | Top Gear

A V8 pick-up truck is the embodiment of the USA on wheels. Huge, powerful, and not intimidated by anything. Ford’s Raptor and the Dodge Ram TRX take the truck into new realms of power, performance and off-road ability… but that’s never enough for some people. People like Texan John Hennessey, who’s used the Ram TRX as the starting point for what they call the Mammoth 1000: the most powerful road-legal truck in the world. With 1,012 supercharged horsepower on tap, Baja-spec suspension and bumpers that could knock over buildings, it’s surely the most versatile, apocalypse-proof car on Earth. But just because it works in Texas, is it as useful in the wilds of England? Top Gear magazine’s Ollie Kew has been finding out - after he’s saved up for a tank of fuel…

With trucks it’s towing, payload, and off road ability. Handling for trucks is like towing capacity for a sports car.

[@littlehippo5004]

For people who drive trucks all day everyday, some handling is greatly appreciated. Just makes the driving experience a lot better. The vast majority of truck owners don’t tow frequently, and many fewer off-road that often. A nice balance in the middle is perfect considering the use case, and leave the super off-roading capabilities to more specific models

[@matrinezkevin11492]

@@littlehippo5004 I own a truck an no. No it doesn't. I want my truck to handle well enough that it controls its mass but if you want a sports car you get a sporty car or sedan. I don't want my truck to ride like crap and sacrifice a single pound of its 12000 pound towing capacity so that it has tighter steering. I'd get a miata for that and have the best of both worlds. No one complains that their V8 Vantage doesn't come with a transmission cooler capable of handling a small 1000lb trailer so why should anyone care about a half ton needing to do non truck things at the expense of being able to better do truck things?

[@rich7447]

@@matrinezkevin11492 Half tons don't handle all that badly. At legal speeds they can easily deal with any corner that they are likely to see on public roads. I daily drove a 3/4 ton with a 7" lift on 37s for 12 years with no issues and have moved up to a 1 ton DRW (crew cab 8 foot bed). Still no problem cornering at the speed limit, but now I can do it with a couple of tons in the back. I completely agree with you though. You don't sacrifice capability for handling. All that leads to is no handling once you hook up a reasonably big trailer.

Two, four, six and eight lane roads have lanes to accommodate an artic (semi in US money) and they're the same width in both countries. Also little villages in the UK all manage to be served fine by 7.5 tonne trucks and things like Sprinter vans which are all in the same size bracket as this thing. With around the same footprint.

Just be happy that whoever let you use the truck didn’t leave the tow mirrors in the upwards position. I usually drive my RAM 1500 with them up, and granted in the states I have plenty of room, but every once in a while when I have to drive into NYC, it’s heart attack central trying to avoid semi trucks or the bus. And my truck isn’t even as wide as the TRX. But damn do I want one!

[@rich7447]

I have driven my (now gone) Ram 2500 with 7" lift on 37s in Manhattan many times with the mirrors up. That's the only way that you get decent visibility with them. New Yorkers aren't used to seeing a 7.5 foot tall pickup coming at them and tend to get out of your way.

Raptor R is going to heat things up.

These Chrysler's Cars are the last generation of true power, muscle and funny Cars, with the new generation of electric Cars it Will not be the same any more. 😢

Bogus. Just elect a bunch of new politicians and watch everything do an about-face.

The standard 5.7 hemi with e-torque is the best of the bunch - if you want the off-road look then get a rebel Pretty sure my mate regrets chopping his 2021 5.7 in for the TRX As he does a lot of towing he particularly misses the air suspension My old 2015 5.7 hemisport was the best vehicle I have ever owned - 80000 miles in 3 years and only 1200 quid spent on maintenance a jeep main dealer

[@rich7447]

The best Rams for towing have the Cummins. I had one of the first 5.7 Ram 1500s (2003.5) and it was okay for power, but quite thirsty. Trading for the 2500 with the Cummins was only a mistake because I should have gone 3500.

I saw one of these perfectly parked at a restaurant in northern Texas.

It's the most English review for an American truck I have ever seen.

[@patrickmiller8388]

I OWN ONE! wouldnt trade it for just about anything, fuel is nearing 6 bucks a gallon for 92 oct, but for me its about power and smiles per gallon, and its my daily driver :)

[@rich7447]

California?

[@preparetobedazled]

It's not a Dodge. Has not been called Dodge since 2009. It's just a Ram.

[@milele7703]

Love this beast! Only wish you'd done a tour of the interior.

[@imwarhead8340]

It's the step bro of Ford raptor which was reviewed by the best holsters of TG on a Rescue Hammond mission 6years ago. Man I miss those 3guys.

[@jab5961]

The old TG, captain slow would have mocked the Truck as being too American, loud and impractical, Hammond would have loved it, for the same reasons and Clarkson could have loved or hated the truck but would have been witty about it. They were great because depending on your personality, you agreed with one of them and maybe all of them in some cases. You cant review a special vehicle lie this as if it was a common car, it's not a Kia, it's not a BMW or a Ferrari,, it is unique and people will buy it because if is unique and exclusive and in your face.

[@franciscodanconia4324]

Yep, they should have done something outrageous with it. It's a screaming yellow fullsize truck with 1000HP.

[@darius2640]

top gear is nothing without its iconic presenters, downright impossible to watch

[@rushgush]

i rather put a N/A nelson racing engine in it making like 800 hp. less hp but the throttle response would be way better.

[@natemalnaa1]

"Electric Revolution" was the dumbest thing said in this video 🤣

[@credera]

This is a joke in today’s world 🌎

[@lucyrausch4]

Ram is a brand, it's not a Dodge.

[@cgall7483]

I loved you review on the TRX you compare that with the best cars in the world it is today's time

[@Sly_Wolf_1]

The part of this video I particularly liked was the cabin and equipment review.

[@za316653]

I’m just really worried he’s going to crash that beautiful truck driving on the wrong side of the road. 😃

[@christianwestling2019]

If I ever realize my dream of moving up to the swedish mountains; this will be my daily driver. :D

[@MrCrashsystem]

sorry to say but I don't think mr hennessey was thinking about england while conceiving this beast, and i don't even think he was listening to the beatles🤣

[@warhorsett1748]

I love it!!
