Whether you fall on the TRX or Escalade-V side, these are two amazing feats of engineering. The fact that vehicles of that size and girth can launch like this is nothing short of incredible. 🇺🇸🦅

@hellkitty1014 Год назад

I all I hear is pure American Glory! Hearing these V8 monsters at the same time is truly a treat. The squat on that Caddy is insane! LOL! I also think thr ESV should've been raced to level the playing field against the TRX(closer weight and length), but not that it matter much here. I can tell the TRX was not raced in Baja mode. That allows the truck to start in first gear and really cracks the shifts. It is also still remarkable what Ram accomplished on that truck with A/T 35s and its considerable weight.

@mybro727 Год назад

The Escalade tuned for comfort is certainly more impressive in this race from an engineering standpoint - but I understand Mopar/Dodge fans and their obsession with straight line performance & drag race trophies. GM would embarrass Stellantis with a TRX competitor, just wanted to be clear.

@hellkitty1014 Год назад

@@mybro727 more like tuned for nausea. This is a "performance" SUV on 275 section all-season rubber from a lower-tier model? This thing is barely faster than a Grand Wagoneer. First GM has to figure out how to stop lifters from failing before they come for the King Kong TRX.😂

@curtmaster6400 Год назад

@@mybro727 in case you’ve forgotten, GM did make a competitor to the TRX and Raptor. It’s the ZR2 Silverado and it is the single biggest waste of money they’ve come out with in a long time. It’s barely cheaper than both of the competition and has the same powertrain as a Yukon Denali. Total embarrassment of a car. They added some extra ride height, added locking diffs and called it a day. GM has the tools to make an outstanding truck, yet they could not have fallen more flat.

@PyroBlonde7777 Год назад

@@mybro727 So your big idea to somehow make the slower Chevy relevant was to mention interior quality/comfort? The TRX is literally the nicest truck on the market. Anyone saying otherwise is drinking massive copium. While the TRX isn't winning against a luxury SUV in interior quality its still nice enough to the extent that the small lead the Cadi has in luxury is literally meaningless. GM fanboy lol

Great video 👍👍. I have to agree. My Cadillac Escalade absolutely flies, but off the line it has that split second hesitation. I plugged in an AFM delete to see if that would help. It was night and day. Instead of waiting until the computer switches it into all 8 cylinders, it always runs in 8 cylinders with the AFM delete. People say that you get worse mileage, but I didn’t buy a Prius. Great video. Thanks.

@mr.89chevy13 Год назад

It was very much expected for the TRX to win. But, the guy in the Caddys was late on the gas, essentially when he did a countdown on the roll. As far as pricing go, your paying for luxury, a vehicle that looks and sounds better, along with it not being overrated. Though, I'd pick the Escalade V at a cheaper price by finding one that's wrecked not too bad with low mileage (obviously), but buying one brand new wouldn't be for me. All together, the TRX wins in performance, but grabbing some attention by women and driving in luxury along with a crazy good sound system from factory, Escalade V takes it all damn day.

@yamahaguy1732 11 месяцев назад

Well another thing to mention is he said they were running the Escalade in sport mode which is not as aggressive as V mode. The TRX would probably still win because it weighs less and still makes more power but I think it would be closer.

100% correct. The 35 inch tires, much wider and reinforced steel frame/chassis, and heavy skid plate add considerable weight to the TRX. So many people are assuming the Escalade is heavier.

I would say is the transmission because I driven the 6.0 Denali with 4 speed advantage of not shifting too much I think helps more this kind of trucks compare to my Escalade 2010 with the 6 speed I something think the transmission is kinda figuring out like the guy said should I switch or keep going on eco mode

Buy 4th Gen Escalade or Yukon or Tahoe with 6.2 L86 for have the money of EscaladeV. Put STG1 high lift camshaft with all the supporting mods, put forged internals with lower compression ratio (stock is 11.5, put around 9), put a supercharger on it, tune and that's all. You have a faster SUV for less money and with solved factory problems.
