Fox News Autos test drive: 2021 Ram 1500 TRX
The 2021 Ram 1500 TRX is the most powerful pickup ever made, but it's not all about speed. The high performance off-roader is a well-rounded monster truck, says Fox News Autos Editor Gary Gastelu.
The Ram 1500 TRX is ready to disappear into the desert.
A new Sandblast Edition version of Ram's high-performance monster truck is being added to the lineup this summer.
It comes with the same 702 hp supercharged V8 and full-time 4x4 drivetrain as all TRX models, but gets unique paint and a high level of standard equipment.
The crew cab is painted a color Ram calls Mojave Sand and the truck rides on black 18-inch wheels that are specific to the trim.

It also comes loaded with pretty much every TRX feature, including a 19-speaker audio system, heated and ventilated seats, adaptive cruise control, a 360-degree camera system and panoramic sunroof.
The interior is accented with Light Frost white stitching, carbon fiber inserts and a console VIN plaque with tan and blue fonts, while the instrument cluster is updated to show a rendering of the truck in the correct paint color.

Prices start at $100,080 and there's not much left on the options list to add. Your wallet is also going to take another hit if you actually want to drive it, however, as the TRX has a combined fuel economy rating of 12 mpg.
