Ken Block Fully Sends a Brand New 702hp ‘22 Ram TRX Sandblast Edition in Johnson Valley! It RIPS! 

Very nice truck!! My old 2001 Ram 4x4 is still kicking ass today! Hey if you're feeling charitable I'd like a truck like this to test for a year or so 😂 Kudos on a beautiful trick!! 👏👏👏👏👍

@@828_Nate bro literally simping for a brand 🗿

Yep A Ken approval Take that to the bank

Ram thinks it passed lol give it 3 weeks and and snow storm and it will rust out!

@@jonathanA6969 😄 A Critic in Every Crowd

so this is the car racer that died?

@@eliejahgwapo8422 yes

@@eliejahgwapo8422 google is hard for you I see

@@allanthomas6097 ur an angry individual

@@gamertimefriend1286 prove it

My first hooning car was an '89 Dakota 4x4. I loved that thing. Is there a reason nobody seems to do torsion bar suspension anymore? That thing cornered so flat, it was ridiculous. Well it did until I snapped the anti-sway bar around a corner, but that was fixed eventually. :D

I have a TRX and I'm absolutely obsessed and thrilled with it. You all have done and are doing a great job. Keep up the solid All American Work! Your market loves it!

@@TangoTangoAlpha Glad to hear it, A T. We'll keep building 'em!

Appreciate all the details on this truck!!

I am happy to be able to tell that I'm really thankfull for your job. You guys who are involved in the construction of this Pickup need to keep pushing because you're making a beautiful masterpiece. It is my dream car and one day i'll have mine. Greetings from Mozambique. Ps: I'm not too good in English, sorry if the're some gramatical errors.

@PUBGM FATÌH Your point? He can still miss him. gtfo man

It still sucks, i loved him. He always seemed to be a good dude

I didn’t know he died R.I.P

At the beginning when they both sucked air taking that off balance transition over the dune. You could tell Ken thought it might roll.

Right, I strive reach that level someday

Ken Beat the game of life years ago! How much fun can you have in 1 life? Ken...I hold my own beer thanks!

At least he lived it to the fullest

until he killed himself on a snowmobile

​@@sukiontopyeah....like in video games. I think that's what he meant.

Man I can’t believe he is gone … my childhood hero

hes gonna be missed ,rip sir

@@larrygreene957 don’t be annoying pal , if you have nothing good to say so just keep it yourself

@PUBGM FATÌH idc bro, did you?

@@alexanderi7332 how about both of you shut up and mourn the loss of a legend.

If Dodge handed me the keys to one and told me to go have fun, I'd have no problem beating on it either. It's a little different if I spent $100k of my own money though. Ken even said he hasn't done much in his own truck.

@@angryginger791 of course but it may be possible he'll do some more later. For now he did do what it's suppose to do. It's very different because what I've seen with his personal raptor he's built that thing fully for Baja it's different when you modify a stock truck to a full blown Baja. Plus he's a Ford guy lol he has pure ford's all over. It's cool to see him for the first time drive something that isn't Ford. Plus the TRX is capable of what a factory raptor can do. Imagine a full blown Baja trx that would be very different. And tbh 100k I think a lot of trucks are ridiculous in that price range. When you compare a lot of trucks like an f150 platinum edition that thing ranges close to 90k -100k. So not worth it. A Trx in the other hand is different it's not your normal daily truck. It's a special truck in a different class. Just waiting to see how much a raptor r would cost I have a feeling it may be around the same 100k or even 120k who knows. But I can say this truck needs another video and this time some high jumps. There is a video like a year or two that someone purchased a TRX and did some high jumps. TFL is also one of the first that did reviews with the trx through many things and even towing. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-b-fNMXp99Uk.html

These trucks aren’t “really” meant for high speed off-roading. They’re meant to look like they are and hold up to it occasionally. If you look at a 750hp trophy truck from a few years ago (when they were just 750hp), they’re on another planet. True desert trucks have nothing in common with road legal trucks, they purpose built tube chassis. Dodge and ford are great at convincing people they sell street legal trophy trucks, but they just aren’t. If they were, they’d cost at least half a million dollars.

@@The11901 well let's rephrase that. These trucks especially the TRX is capable going high speeds better than any stock truck. Your comparison is Baja built purpose trucks that generate double or triple the horsepower that can be very very fast. There is a difference in what your saying. But in comparison for the public use this truck is fast for what it is up against any stock truck.

@@mopardude707 the horsepower is the problem though. 700 is absolutely absurd for something weighing 6000 lbs with only 13.5 inches of travel. A top tier trophy truck is the same weight with 1000 hp and 28-32 inches of travel. The TRX has so much more engine than it does chassis or safety measures. Someone is going to watch this shit, and then go send it down a fire road at 110+ hit an 18 inch deep ditch and demolish the front suspension, roll, and die. Just look at the literal thousands of raptors in junk yards with frame cracks behind their cabs because people jumped them more than 2ft off the ground. These trucks wouldn’t exist if they weren’t used 98% on the road because they’d be law suited out of existence. If you like the truck, which I do, be glad no one uses them like dodge wants you to believe you can.

Great to mention that! Great cabin airflow

Yup the Rapids look the best. Black wheels start to lose detail and look generic when dirty and the Raids are quite busy. I’d want to know wheel weights though too, but my choice is the Rapid.

Same bro

Yep option 2 looks great

Yep 👍

Ram doesn’t own Jeep or Dodge you douche

Yeah it’s a little too heavy 6300 pounds. the new Raptor R is gonna have 750 hp . and be 1200 pounds lighter than the ram!!

Who buys a hellcat or trackhawk to off road 💀

@@Herrera419 LOL

@@Herrera419 Raptor R is 400 pounds lighter and has 700 hp. I predict it will be much more exclusive than the TRX but that is not good if it turns out to be a great performing truck.

That thing looks like a mop bucket strainer

Raids are sexy af

@@eschrader I love the look of mop bucket strainers. How long have you been a janitor?

A Hoon'r from Way back

Thats why zach rides along wdym LMAO

Cheers 🍻 thanks for that. Big ditto back at ya

@@revsonsrc9573 😄

Rite on brother!! Good looking out!

Amen brother 🙏🏽❤️

🤙

I would shit my 👖

Robby Gordon is the real deal.

Robby Gordon in a Raptor R vs Ken in the TRX

@@63Imp283 Unfortunately, the Raptor would probably break down lol

Damn 😞

What happened to Ken, and how did he die. So sad😔

lol cool bro

he def has (or..had🥺..RIP) people to clean them for him.

This is a rentable place, like an air bnb.

@@heykuckma well…ken doesn’t clean much anymore

@Forrest Strong - Yeah; good question because I was thinking the same thing. Ken is right “it’s not a trophy truck” but it did really well

It's surprisingly good tbh

Your never going to get one if your always wishing work for it

@@mariaperez5933 you know shit about me! So keep your opinion to yourself

shia lebouf.gif lol

Any of the rams with the 8 speed are fine because the are zf transmission they are stupid strong

@@square348apple3 Thank you for the reply. I've been trying to research them to see if there have been any changes and you are correct. Just researching how well their electronics hold up now.

When I saw the Raptor R interior is when I made my decision to get TRX.

It falls apart fast though 😂

Some ppl think the loud the radiator is power steering 😂

What proved to you that it's >30 thousand dollars better than a Tundra?? You can beat the shit out of just about any new truck and it'll handle it, until you're cruising to work a few days later and the rear diff starts making a noise or the trans misses a shift, who knows?? I can't believe people are willing to spend nearly 100K on a truck and many of them still have serious quality issues with extremely expensive repairs. I can always fix my Toyota's cheap and easily...

@@dc6233 I currently daily drive my 1985 4runner Sr5 5 speed with the 22re and it sits on 35's with 5:29 gearing. this winter i am going to install Marlin Crawler dual transfer case box. well worth it.

Nobody takes a V6 with a trombone style exhaust seriously anymore.

Uh what? Keep the fanboy idiocy to yourself next time.

@@SillyDillysTunes Hello there I am definitely a Hoonigan fan I appreciate all of there content, I don’t really have enough time to get to enjoy all of it. I appreciate your comment in the fact that I could really care less about what you have to say. Ken is a legendary racer and who are you???? It’s like this I’ve been a mechanic and into racing since 1973, I’ve worked on and with several racing teams and for the last 17 and a quarter years I worked as an inspector for San Bernardino in SoCal and Dodges just do not hold up at all to where they won’t buy them anymore. Ford’s hold up really good, along with Toyota’s and Honda’s. So I don’t just talk the talk but have many years of racing and running experience behind my opinions. I’m only replying because of my appreciation for the entire Hoonigan team and or crew. Take there and have a good time in life.

@@storytimedavidcollins2897 first off you do care because you made a large paragraph to explain yourself. Secondly I've built tons of cars myself and have a deep understanding of the engineering involved. Not just a wrench turner. Hilarious you want to talk to me about Dodge reliability. Comical.

@@SillyDillysTunes No worries It’s all good I just don’t have any time for all this.
