- The 2024 Ram 1500 TRX Final Edition celebrates the end of Ram’s supercharged pickup truck.
- The Ram 1500 TRX packs a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 under the hood that sends 702 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque to an eight-speed transmission.
- The TRX Final Edition will start at $119,620 when it goes on sale before the end of 2023.
Just like the dinosaurs, the Ram 1500 TRX is facing an extinction event. The high-output pickup is getting a special final edition for the 2024 model year and gives collectors and fans a final chance to snag one of the wildest Ram trucks ever.
The main points of the ’24 Ram 1500 TRX remain the same. Under the hood is the same 6.2-liter supercharged Hemi V8 that makes 702 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque. That power travels through an eight-speed automatic transmission before hitting all four wheels.
This helps the hefty, over-3-ton pickup sprint to 60 mph in a scant 4.5 seconds and tackle the quarter mile in fewer than 13 seconds.
Of course, that’s been the story with every Ram TRX to date. The Final Edition adds bead lock-capable wheels and special badging. There’s also a special Final Edition splash screen on the cluster and a badge carrying the production number of your TRX Final Edition.
You can count on range-topping features, like the upgraded Harman Kardon sound system, a head-up display, and effectively any option you’d want on your TRX.
That’s all the good news. The bad news: The 2024 Ram TRX Final Edition will start at $119,620 when it goes on sale before the end of the year. That’s a hefty premium over the current ’23 models. Still, that extra cost might be worth the extinction edition for truck collectors.
