I’m on the way. Planning on ordering a 23.
I'm still sitting on the quote I received. To be honest, the ONLY thing stopping me is i still feel like the Raptor is just more special. Probably because it's the OG with a fairly rich history. I don't want the TRX to end up like their SRT-10.

My old man said "I don't know, I like Fords." He's never been a Mopar guy and loves my truck LOL

Anything with 700hp or more is special. I don't care what the brand is!

The Raptor was special, until Ford decided to whistle past the graveyard by sticking with their ecoboost that has the worst exhaust sound ever heard on a truck.

While RAM (a brand I previously had ZERO interest in) took notice of a very obvious complaint from the majority of Raptor owners and put out the TRX.

To be perfectly honest, I actually prefer the look of the Raptor a little more, but the dark side is calling my name, and it’s too hard to say no to the Hellcat motor while they are still available.

My brother said "screw that" after being told $40K over sticker for Raptor R and got TRX. Loves it. Traded Shelby p/u for TRX. He says, "TRX is way more truck than Shelby or Raptor."
