The mighty Ram 1500 TRX remains the supertruck we fell in love with, but the world has changed over its time with us.
, but it went in for repairs at the height of the pandemic-induced supply chain crisis. We waited months for a rear bumper. We'd like to be able to tell you everything Ram repaired on our TRX, but it rebuffed our accounting requests. Why? No clue. We never got a complete breakdown of everything that was repaired, either, so it's tough to speculate. I'd guesstimate the damage was about $20,000, though that's just a hunch.
Here's the actual crazy part. According to our partners at IntelliChoice, even with all the miles this truck's residual value is $90,400. Our truck's sticker price? $91,185. Yes, the truck is worth over 99 percent of what it cost new. Insert head-exploding emoji here. That strikes me as absurd, especially because the car-buying canon maintains your car loses 33 percent of its value when you drive it off the lot.
As for life with the TRX beyond the numbers, it remains the supertruck we fell in love with two years ago. You'd never know by looking, but Ram's engineering team did a fantastic job tuning the suspension. Not just in terms of near-luxury levels of ride quality, but in terms of handling. Nearly every time I hopped aboard, I figured out a way to take a corner way too quickly just to experience the feel of the big Ram hunkering down and doing the impossible.
. Too bouncy for the ponies. The gargantuan Ram excelled at heading off-road , was shockingly great as a long-haul luxury cruiser, and with its massive cabin was quite a practical vehicle. For instance, I could easily put a whole week's worth of groceries on the floor of the back row. And I should say practical unless the TRX's absurd 88-inch width puts a damper on your parking plans at the market. Perfect? No, but man, is the Ram 1500 TRX one hell of a great truck.
