But if he didn't include some footage of himself romping on it then people in the comment section would be complaining about that too and stepping on it for a few seconds twice in 241 miles isn't going to make that big of a difference to the overall trip MPG. When he begins to talk about how fast he was going he shows a still shot of himself going 70 mph so I'm guessing that's what he set his cruise to during the 99% of the trip that the camera wasn't on.

[@mierdevries9643]

It's a truck it's lifted so it isn't very aerodynamic. I remember a time I had to run my brother to San Antonio and I was driving an 09 Pontiac G8 GT that was bolt-ons with custom dyno tune. From Brookshire, TX to the Luling Buc-ee's in under an hour the computer said my avg speed was 95 and 21mpg. I have a ZR2 now and I leveled the front-end to put 33" tires on it, I went from 18mpg to 15-16mpg. So yeah he'll get better after the engine wears in a bit but probably only 1 or 2mpg. But do we really care when you hear that whine from under the hood?

[@thecrazyroker69]

I agree i have a JL and avg about 20mpg mixed driving, so considering that trx has almost 3times as much power and a supercharger as big as detroit i think its alright, besides mpg should improve a bit when the engine breaks in,

I just drove from Tahoe to SF and back in my Raptor. The trip back involved going from sea level to 7000+ feet and being stuck in a LOT of traffic. Even so I did the whole 400 mile trip with about 16 MPG, zero gas stops and a quarter tank left at the end. The TRX is a badass muscle truck and will smoke the Raptor in a drag race, possibly on an offroad circuit race and has a nicer interior. But in terms of usability as a road tripper, camping rig and DD..... I think this test is confirming about what I thought when it was announced. I doubt I'll 'upgrade'.

We pay USD 7,77 a gallon over here in the Netherlands...

[@talltomtube]

Just out of curiosity is that an Imperial gallon or US gallon? I know your gas costs more either way. I just would like to know your gallon type.

[@walker-snow]

talltomtube he is using US gallon for calculation. In EU they sell gas per liter/€

[@stoveguy2133]

But there are no govt taxes in Europe. Haha

[@antonlengkeek]

@@stoveguy2133 i pay 137 euro's a month road tax...

[@bryanjobe7213]

I got a pro charged 5.3 single cab Silverado and I get about 9 mpg🤣 I got a heavy foot and everyone wants to race. To me fuel mileage doesn’t matter if it’s what you want. Buy it and have fun while you can. Even though I’m nowhere near 700 hp it’s still a fun truck. Can’t imagine driving this beast

[@stig120212]

TRX or not its a dam good looking truck!

[@nsocialsnetwork2171]

Roman is young again with this beast on the go.

[@thomasbeveridge8144]

1. Beast 2. Interior noise seems pretty loud: how was this on the long roadtrip? 3. needs sunroof

[@kyleeisenhauer5501]

I was wondering if he had a window cracked or something. It seemed so loud.

[@Gergaferg]

Kyle Eisenhauer if you check savage geese’s video you’ll find its actually quite silent and comfortable when highway cruising

[@ericpatrell4776]

I live in Detroit and know someone that got theirs on the 23rd... I have seen multiple TRXs roaming the streets too

[@WJ4x4OR]

I like how everyone is moving out of the way lol ram power

[@screamneagle8420]

The TRX is definitely a real badass looking truck! IMO

[@jrive075]

In my “slower” ram the mpg improved after a couple thousand miles by about 2 mpg. Wonder if this is the case here as well. Sick truck though!

[@brokenwrench404]

Driving style has a lot to do with that

[@Torsee]

@@brokenwrench404 You bet! He started getting bored, and drove more sanely.

[@TheAdventureKean]

broke in several RAM's in my life. They get really crappy fuel economy until you hit 5k in miles, then you get just bad gas mileage.

[@jrive075]

@@TheAdventureKean 🤣 ain’t that the truth!

[@gasolinediesel972]

@@jrive075 Probably not. 10 mpg going 82 mph in a 702 hp supercharged 6.2 v8 awd lifted pickup truck on 35 inch all-terrains is pretty good. I've owned a 4.7 magnum Ram, a 5.9 magnum Ram, a 5.9 Cummins Ram, a 6.7 Cummins Ram, and a 5.7 hemi Ram. The only one that got good fuel economy was the 6.7, which I would expect from a modern diesel. Chrysler v8's aren't exactly known for getting good gas mileage, neither were the old 5.9 Cummins diesel straight sixes. All of them got around 15 mpg. The 6.7 got around 25 mpg. I never experienced the thing that you described with getting better gas mileage after breaking in.

[@renaissancepoet]

By far the best looking pickup truck on the market! I only hope Ram's long term quality has improved.

[@henrent]

The bag in the back seat at 8:33 said it all.

[@seancooke4127]

My daughter just went FCA before Christmas when she bought a Fiat 500 S. Wait till she sees the TRX. Hey 10.8 mpg is not bad Roman cos you have the Displacement, the Huge Supercharger and it doesn't really follow Colin Chapman's instruction to remove weight wherever possible.

[@Uneek637]

Why is your fuel nozzle green for gas and black for diesel? That is really messing with me. Haha

[@aussie2uGA]

There is no industry standard! It actually comes down to whatever the particular station decides to use. Hopefully as time goes on, they will generally standardize that to prevent confusion.

[@TheSlugger76]

Depends on what state your in

[@zackeryyochum2937]

Here in Ohio some places use green for diesel and places like UDF use yellow. It throws me off because some places yellow is used for E85.

[@macbookpro57]

Because BP lol

[@alienation-k1x]

Diesel nozzle won't fit into modern gasoline fill neck.

[@DeanJohnson67]

Drive from Chicago to Leadville for the past 6 years w/my 5.7 Ram 1500 (14 mpg/avg) and the trip out via the Nebraska route always costs me about $40 more in fuel than the return trip! Seems like there is always a strong headwind the entire length of the state. This year made the trip out with the JT LE -- Not a great increase at only 19 MPG but I did spend about $50 less this trip!

[@gregchiropolos9885]

Yeah I’ve always had the same results in my 2001 Tundra. From Chicago to the mountains of Colorado about 14 or less on the return trip 17 or so.

[@vietusa74]

It’s crappy that they didn’t give you a full tank of gas when you left the factory.

[@tallll70]

Yep, the dealership I purchased my used Bighorn gave me full tank

[@604h22a]

@@tallll70 that’s the difference picking it up from factory and dealership

[@dieseldrax]

The factory only provides enough gas for transport and for the dealer to get to the gas station, they never ship vehicles full of fuel.

[@Kiarabelle1]

Best looking and most powerful truck on the road.

[@JsGarage]

Man that MPG and premium fuel ouch! Still my dream truck atm.

[@garrydealey1968]

The price of our fuel here in the uk is £1.30. a lite for one gallon is all most £6.00 pound but it would be nice to have that truck over there

[@tyleranderson5823]

Of course you wont get the EPA rated highway mileage at 82mph on the highway lol

[@regsparkes6507]

If I were the one owning and driving this TRX, I'd be smiling and grinning too! ( even if I am NOT a fan of RAM trucks,..... but things do change, never say never, they say! )

[@Spankus28]

You obviously didn’t fill up in Chicago if that was the highest you paid for premium. 😂

[@davidtaylor5811]

Or anywhere in California!

[@robertmills794]

race like hell between gas stations Roman! Hahahahahahahahahaha,.. reminds me of a '79 F250 I had in the early 90's with a 460 under the hood. Went like hell, ate rubber like mad and drank fuel like nothing else I'd ever known. 468 cid, 520/292 cam, 11:1 pistons and a Holley 850 double pumper,.. thank Ford for the c6!

[@tortillawingtv2175]

They should have made a 2wd version that switches to 4x4

[@alienation-k1x]

Yeah, that's where the next gen Raptor is going to really hurt the Trx. People can say they don't care about mpg, but when you've got a direct competitor averaging 4 or 5 mpg better, sales will reflect that. I think Ram engineers made a critical error in choosing the BorgWarner 48-13 full-time active transfer case.

[@garys2157]

I think it was on purpose, with all that power they wanted it to be able to put the power down on the road, instead of some guy "giving it the beans" and then losing control of it and crashing it.

[@jimatyeo]

I have to admit that every time Roman goosed it and started laughing I was too. Roman you do a good job on the video except the out of focus bit, it makes us feel like we are there. Too fun dude! Now that's a truck!!!

[@devinb3256]

So TFL did a article abt the TRX towing a 35 foot formula speed boat that with the trailer weighs abt 11,500 pound it towed it really good I was surprised. I only know that because I was in it. People say that they find it hard to believe that his bosses had to be mad but actually they loved it and it was a really good test for it
