I heard the new Roush F150 will be supercharged - might be an alternative. But agree with most, very disappointed in the roll out. In a way, relieved, as I love my 2019 with a Roush tune. Also, all the rumors on hybrid combo does not appear in this series of lineups or offerings. I staying with my 19!

different frame for the 37s? It was mentioned that 37s will have different shocks. Where did you get frame from?

My fault. I thought I read it was a different frame to allow for the 37" spare tire. Might just be the hitch along with the shocks. I can't be held accountable...I have read way too much about this thing today and watched too many videos lol.

Yes, the reveal was a dud.

One thing I will say is that Ford has a great marketing team. The TRX reveal was cheesy like ******.

Ford screwed the pooch on this one. Direct competition has a 6.2 supercharged V8 and they come out with more of the same but a twist in the exhaust to try to make it sound better :lol2:

It’s not direct competition when the TRX is close to $20k more with the same level of equipment. The Raptor R will be the TRX direct competitor.

An ecopoof with a trombone twist in the exhaust in an ill attempt to make it sound like a V8 is not the same equipment as a 6.2 supercharged Hellcat. Ram has been making the best interiors for a while now as well. The Raptor R will cost more than the TRX but will likely be on par pricing wise as the TRX Red Eye.

The reveal video was disappointed. I was expecting more than commercial. The F150 and TRX vids where so much better. Ford shouldn't rely on the press to give out details.

As far as the truck itself, it does have some nice improvements, but I don't think it'll be enough to upgrade, particularly since I don't care for some of the interior styling.
