      I've noticed that too. I'm sure they're trying to make their products seem as badass as possible but then again, these trucks have long drive trains, plus sending the power through the transmission, transfer case, front/rear diff and then through 35" & 37" tires. So they probably are losing quite a bit of power from the crank horsepower rating to the wheel rating.

But the regular gas ones only tow 10k pounds which is second worst in class only above the Nissan Titan but Nissan at least has the XD if you want a little more towing capability and capacity without being a 3/4 ton. And Toyota doesn't even offer an HD line up or engine options. Just that old 13 MPG 5.7l V8 with 381 horsepower. Meanwhile, the TRX has 702 and gets 13 MPG.

    As a 20+ year GM employee it always made me angry that GM won't build a fast truck!!!!!! Ford has had the lightning and now the Raptor, Dodge had the srt-10 and now this monster!!! I've written many emails to corporate and shared concerns/ideas, but it's like they couldn't care less. They will just come out with some sticker kit and a quirky new name(rallye edition,midnight edition,mossy oak,etc). I doubt anyone from GM will see this,but PLEASE put the LT4 in the Silverado/Sierra!!!!!!!!! Excitement gets people into dealership. Look how the Chrysler/Dodge/Ram lineup has grown in the last 5 years. When they first came out with the hellcats they were sold out for a year and even stopped taking orders for them. That seems like a pretty good business model. While not everyone wants a 700hp gas engine in their car or truck, it appears that many people do! The TRX launch edition sold out in 2 hours!!!!!!

    Why GM won’t give us a production supercharged truck is beyond me

      Because many of their consumers haven’t asked for one like the ones over at FCA. If more people wanted a super truck like Chevy, they would definitely build one.

      I wouldn't hold your breath with GM getting ready to nix all their gas powered engines. It will take a while before a reliable electric vehicle can take on something like the TRX or the Raptor. To heavy and after a couple of races, better have a charging station available to get home. Ford will be the most likely tk have a high performance truck out given their hybrid and electric systems seem to be light years ahead of where GM is right now. Stalantis won't be far behind with Ferrari's experience with pure electric and hybrid high performace super cars. GM is being left behind right now in several areas. Hope their publicity stunt of going all electric works out or they will be government subsidized again.

    That TRX is unreal. Two races I’d love to see is TRX vs SRT10 and TRX vs the upcoming Hummer

    • @nathanmcdonald610
      @nathanmcdonald610 Před 3 lety

      The TRX would waste the STR-10. When new on their best days ''at sea level'' the SRT-10's would run 0-60 in about 5 seconds, the TRX at sea level does the same measure a second faster. It wouldn't even be a race really, I'd be willing to bet even the 450hp Raptor would hang with or pull on an SRT-10. I don't think any of them could beat the new Hummer though as it allegedly is going to have 1000hp electric motors, that thing is going to be stupid fast when it comes out.
