February 6th, 2023 by

When truck shoppers want a big and powerful pickup, generally they start their search by looking at RAM models. The RAM 1500 has been one of the most popular trucks on the market for years, and it now comes in a variety of trims. Here you’ll learn about the capabilities of the impressively powerful 2023 RAM 1500 TRX.

Power and Performance

While the base engine in the RAM 1500 is nothing to sneeze at — it’s a 3.6-liter V6 that offers 305 horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque — the TRX takes it to another level. It comes with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 that produces 702 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission comes standard, as does full-time four-wheel drive.

In addition to very nice handling, this truck is very spry: thanks to launch control, it can get you from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds. The RAM 1500 TRX offers excellent performance off-road, as it comes with a chassis and suspension specifically designed to handle rough terrain. It can also be equipped with the RamBar Light Bar.

Towing and Hauling

If you’re planning to put your RAM 1500 TRX to work, you’ll love what it can do. When properly equipped, it can tow up to 8,100 pounds. Plus, it can haul up to 5,000 pounds. Two bed lengths are available: 5-foot-7-inch or 6-foot-4-inch. There are also several things you can add to make towing and hauling easier, including:

  • Trailer brake controller
  • Trailer reverse steering control
  • Power-adjustable trailer tow mirrors
  • Trailer hitch light
  • Adjustable tie-downs
  • Bed extender
  • Deployable bed step
  • In-bed lighting
