If you thought 2020 couldn’t get any worse, take a look at this picture. For some reason or another, an example of the Ram TRX has somehow fallen on the driver’s side on the assembly line in Sterling Heights.
Posted on Instagram by Sinister Lifestyle, this predicament doesn’t come with an explanation from the original poster. The most obvious culprits would be a hardware issue or human error, but we should also consider a more comical scenario. More to the point, the poor TRX may have fainted after hearing how much Jeep is charging for the Wrangler Rubicon 392.
Whatever happened, it’s worth highlighting that mess-ups aren’t exclusive to FCA. Instagram user “k1tcat_707” explains that “we had a robot that broke and dropped five cars, but I work for General Motors so I don’t know.”
In production since December 17th, the most powerful light-duty truck of them all starts at $71,690 or $13,555 more than the Ford F-150 Raptor with the crew cab. The Launch Edition, which is limited to 702 examples as a reference to the engine’s horsepower, has sold out at $90,265 per unit.
Exclusively offered as a crew cab with a short bed, the TRX takes its mojo from a Hellcat V8. The 6.2-liter HEMI-powered super truck rocks an IHI supercharger, an eight-speed automatic transmission, Bilstein adaptive shock absorbers, a reinforced frame, as well as more than 13 inches (330 mm) of travel front and aft.
Capable of 118 miles per hour (190 kilometers per hour) and up to 32 inches (812 mm) of water fording, the TRX also knows how to do workhorse stuff. Be that as it may, towing and payload capacities aren’t exactly on par with less powerful specifications of the Ram 1500 at 8,100 and 1,310 pounds, respectively (3,674 kg and 594 kg).
“The most technologically advanced pickup ever” according to Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, this bad boy can be improved with more than 100 factory-engineered performance parts and accessories. Mopar add-ons include the RamBar, a bed-mounted carrier for the spare tire, beadlock-capable wheel rings, auxiliary off-road lights, and off-road rock rails.
