@@MrAllthatgoodstuff Ha, back in high school/college, my buddy bought a brand new Jeep Wrangler. The very first night we sunk it in the river; the entire vehicle was submerged (even the top of the windshield). Had to get it winched out and drain the cabin. Next night we rolled it into a 15-20 foot deep hole while running power lines. Ended up getting totaled in a similar way less than two months later lol. Another buddy did virtually the same thing with his Grand Cherokee on 38’s I had a 99’ 4Runner sport at the time (the one without running boards and w/ the hood scoop); 35’s, rear locking differential, hi-lo transfer case etc. It would out climb anybody else’s rig with the exception of a Suzuki Samurai (which also got rolled.. like 10 times down a huge hill) Ahh to be young again
It was made worse that they were at the end of the press demos. The offroad track was especially torn up and washboarded. The worse dirt road/trail I've driven was an uphill run to where a lot of people tow trailers. HUGE washboarding from the slipping tires and bouncing suspensions of people pulling 10,000 campers up into the mountains. That uphill at the start with weeks of people gunning a 700hp truck up there looked about the same.
@Christian Ruiz He luckily turned off the engine before it became submerged when we sunk it in the river. We had sealed up the intake box pretty well beforehand. We had floated downstream about 100 yards by the time our rescue (ie drunk buddy with a Cummins) jumped in and hooked it winch up to a tree and turned it on. We got pretty close to shore and he pulled us the rest of the way out. No water got into the motor, thank goodness. Honestly though, knowing the guy with the Jeep, he wouldn’t have gave af
The internet seems to love to bash Chrysler, but they’ve always produced exciting vehicles, perhaps not always the absolute best vehicles... but they’ve always pushed the edge of ridiculous and as an automotive enthusiast I’ve always respected them for that!
The engineering on the chassis and drive-train does look impressive. I'm not a truck guy, but you can tell there was a lot of thought and engineering that went into the development of this truck.
@@johnbacon4997 I prefer not to say. I have done a lot of work with companies that design and build automated production lines for the car industry. VW Group, BMW, Kia/Hyundai etc, so have seen a lot of the engineering processes and what makes a good vehicle. This Ram is built.
Amazing the amount of great shots, driving, tech info and top notch quality presentation you got out of this short press event. Just the images you use as b-roll alone are so good, smoothly filmed and sharply edited that Ram should be on their knees begging you to let them buy the material. You and Jack are great hosts too and really draw me into the experience. Top it all off with creativity and that little extra savagery. Man you make it look easy.
It still amazes me that people out there drive off-road like this. I know it’s dumb, but my car gets me to the store and work, and that’s about it. This looks like a ton more fun! Thanks for letting us live vicariously through your channel!
I appreciate that you gents are still able to keep the comedy segments going especially considering that you only had a few hours to shoot this truck. Your guys’ dedication to the formula is awesome which makes me look forward to watching these videos on every lunch break. Keep it up!
Great short intro! Can never fault a company for bringing a great concept to life. With low gas prices these will sell and inevitably I'll see dozens on the road with "Todd's Landscaping" graphics on the side. Nothing says "I'm hauling azaleas" like 700hp.
Sound perfect to me. Screaming gets tired after a while. Love the super-charger whine. Great review. Love the TRX. Well done RAM. A high bar for Ford and GM to catchup to.
Ford has already announced there's gonna be 2 engine options in the Raptor. The 450hp EcoBoost and the 5.2 760 hp Predator. Rams 15 minutes of fame didn't last long.
I bet the 5.2 is limited production probably 1000 at a 120 grand ram did a good job and ford probably will too just be happy raptor has some competition
I guess to announce "I have a large penis," one must drive a Prius, or maybe a SmartCar, given all of the vehicles that supposedly indicate micro-penis status.
Wow nice catch, how did you see that?! Is it because such a tiny amount of blood is needed for the micro penis the redirection of that extra blood flow increases eyesight capability? I would have to assume... I mean that would be the logical answer.
Of all the vehicle reviewers I have watched, savagegeese happen to be spot on the details every time, I remember when you're reviewing the Durango with it's velcro fasteners on the third row back seats and quoted "their cheaper than an Walmart find", that alone is fantastic!
Appreciate the details, especially the spring info, so much info about the engine, nothing about anything else, but you guys nailed a good mix of everything
I laughed my arse off when Mark said " I gotta take a shit".......Hilarious video, but still so educational and informative. Thanks guys and "g'day" from Warwick in Queensland Australia!
Hopefully they do both I own a raptor and most the people I know with raptors even with the price they are we drive them off road it’s your toy and a daily driver everyone doesn’t want a sports car or a motorcycle or side by side. You get this or a raptor and you get it all a luxury truck to drive to work and all the normal stuff then take the same truck to the off road park or the dirt roads and tear it up then take 5 bucks and spray it off at the do it yourself wash and go right back to your daily driver

@@richardmahoney9415 no no I love trucks too. But some people become total hotheads behind the wheel. My message was not meant for individuals like you.

This is one of those Trucks where, as a Truck Fan, YOU DON'T CARE how pricey it is, how 'Impractical' it is, or even how much it 'doesn't make sense' to buy one. Like the Raptor, You Buy this because you want to drive the Biggest, Baddest Truck on the Block (Even if all you're doing with it is taking it to the Goddamn Walmart every week to build your ego or piss off the neighbors). The 6.2L Supercharged V8 was one of the Smartest Decisions that FCA has done this Decade. This Engine TRUMPS anything Ford can do with their Raptor Engines, Especially Since Ford made it clear that the Raptor with the Supercharged V8 would be a LIMITED Release. My Question though is on Reliability, and it has been FCA's Achilles Heel the Last Decade or Two. Will this Truck Hold up in terms of Longevity? The RAM TRX may be impressive now, but will it be in 3-5 Years Time? Will people still be railing about this supposed 'Masterpiece' of Truck? Or will it end up in the Dump like RAM's many other Trucks? Only Time will tell. Appreciate the Work guys! Keep it Up!
@@tallll70 MDS requires two things, you to stay on top of your oil changes (3000 miles heavy cycle, 6000 miles light cycle) and that you use good quality oil of the correct type. Ive laughed off some of the people who say MDS systems are unreliable because they do like 15,000 mile oil changes and use thicker oils
Well for one, Rams have been historically reliable. The 6.2 is durable, the ZF 8 speed is robust, and this truck looks to have overbuilt suspension components. The question is whether it’ll sustain all the ABUSE by the time this truck passes hands and is on its 3rd, 4th, 5th owner and has been modified.
$90,000 dollars of vehicle that's never going to see dirt under most owners because it's a $90,000 vehicle. I'll stick with my barn yard animal from 15 years ago.
I have 4 friends with fully loaded raptors. All first owners. 3 of them have the second gen and the other 1 has the first gen with the 6.2L . Not sure how much they paid, i dont even know how much raptors cost tbh but im sure theyre around 60-70k and not a single one of them is a pavement queen. They use them constantly. Im sure more people than you think will be using these trucks off road. Plus these wont be selling at 90k, maybe the first 100 will sell at sticker for the people who absolutely want and need one. After that theyll come down to low 70s. Then after two years theyll be in the high 40s to low 50s on the second hand market.
What an amazing time, as far as vehicular technology goes, that we live in. In a relatively short time we have gone from the Hellcat, to the Demon, to the horsepower wars between the Challenger, Camaro, Mustang, to changing the Vette and giving us the C8, to this TRX and a “green “ Hummer with 1000hp. It’s been a driving enthusiasts’ wet dream! I can’t wait to see what’s next.....
Random Craigslist Detroit ad: "2017 Ford Raptor for sale 60k miles, $40k. First with cash gets it." Never offroaded. "Meet me in the parking lot of Chrysler Dr in Auburn Hills."
"...I gotta take a shit!". Words we've all said and heard before. But coming from Mark was unexpected, and thus made my soda sip come up through my nose! Thanks, Mark!
The caveat of “if you have a warranty if you buy it or lease it, you’re gonna be so happy,” is that in reference to long-term reliability? That’s the one thing I’ve been mulling over...I want one, but plan on keeping it for 10-15 years and over 100,000 miles. I wonder how it’s reliability would be over such a span? Never owned an FCA product, but seriously digging the TRX!
Your cinematography and music choices are always top notch with your reviews, especially this one. As for the Ram TRX itself, it's extremely impressive and I'm really happy to see a true Ford Raptor competitor now. Keep up the good reviews while staying safe out there, SavageGeese! I'm eager to see your next reviews on other new vehicles like the new 2021 Chevrolet Suburban, Ford F-150, etc whenever you get the safe opportunity to borrow one of them for a review.
Awww fuq yeah! Looking forward to that 718 GTS 4.0 content! If I had another $40K and didn't have to wait till Jan/Feb to order one the way I wanted I'd grab one of those over the M2C!
FCA deserves some credit here. They could have just mated a Power Wagon with a Raptor and called it a day but instead they went all out with a truck that shouldn't exist. Can't wait for the full review.
8:02-8:13 should immediately cut to the 8:59 mickey mouse laugh Jack makes, all overlaid with the face Jack made at 8:30 jumping the truck. Love the videos, great work as always!
I LOVE IT!!!! It looks like so much fun!!!! I LOVE THE METALLIC BLUE!!!! SUGGESTION: Please consider building a 2WD version and call it the TRX REDEYE. Just like the REDEYE Challenger. With a T-56. option.
I'm really waiting for the press video.. one of my top channels with magnificent efforts and a treasure of informations I'm really appreciate your Work working guys, love from kuw🔥👊
"If I didn't have to take a shit before, this will jar it loose." That's the kind of hard hitting journalism you're just not going to get anywhere else.
The comments are awesome on this one guys! When off-roading usually you would be going slower (smaller engines, in low range), with deflated higher profile tires 38" on 16" rims, aftermarket monster suspension & travel, then it's a bit more tolerable (as in not requiring Depends for Mark). The TRX want's to be a trophy truck with twice the weight and 1/4 of the suspension travel.
Why? The v6 is much better. The only thing that would be better than the v6 would be a 4 liter v8 with twin turbos in a hot V configuration. Purely just for the v8 sound. Not necessarily performance. OR what would be TRULY amazing is if they just put a huge 7.7L high compression natually apserated high reving DOHC V8 in it. Massive torque from the displacement and high hp from the high revs. Win win.
It's cool seeing FCA recognizing that having flagship performance models is good for branding. Before the Hellcat/Demon lineup I never understood why anyone would purchase a dodge/ram new because the brand just didn't have anything exciting about it. While these top end models may not sell incredibly well, I feel like just having them in their lineup definitely helps sales of their lesser cars. The brand isn't just any old boring car company anymore, there's something exciting and youthful about them because they're willing to produce cars that they know might not sell that well, but are crazy and fun nonetheless.
0:12 Fast enough to chase down teens in a STI and with the bed capacity for the entire chainsaw collection. Its Dodge Demon and Forestry Truck Todd all in one package.
Been watching for a long time. Your reviews, explanation and format were a huge kicking off point for my training videos at work. What camera gear do you use? Thanks Mr. Goose
Nice to see a company compete against Ford's Raptor. (Agreed - Huge mistake to place a V-6 in the raptor). I would like to see a smaller, lighter truck with a 5.7L V-8 also. Great review as always!
A few years ago the high end pickup truck was $45,000. Now its $90,000?! My wages haven’t doubled so since I couldn’t afford it before, I definitely can’t afford this one either. Ridiculous.
I've always wondered the hardware you guys use for your filming. What's the rig or rigs you guys use and what video editing and color editing software have you had the best luck with? Just generally curious, you guys have been destroying it in terms of car display like my God and you guys make cars look good. Keep killing it!
Be kinda interesting if Ford and Ram would make base model versions of their trucks with the same offroad components as these top-tier offerings. The prices are just so damn high
Really a great truck. Maybe nobody really needs it but that is to be said about so many expensive products. At least it will make some enthusiasts happy!

Im sure more people than you think will be using these trucks off road. Plus these wont be selling at 90k, maybe the first 100 will sell at sticker for the people who absolutely want and need one. After that theyll come down to low 70s. Then after two years theyll be in the high 40s to low 50s on the second hand market.
What an amazing time, as far as vehicular technology goes, that we live in. In a relatively short time we have gone from the Hellcat, to the Demon, to the horsepower wars between the Challenger, Camaro, Mustang, to changing the Vette and giving us the C8, to this TRX and a “green “ Hummer with 1000hp. It’s been a driving enthusiasts’ wet dream! I can’t wait to see what’s next.....
Random Craigslist Detroit ad: "2017 Ford Raptor for sale 60k miles, $40k. First with cash gets it." Never offroaded. "Meet me in the parking lot of Chrysler Dr in Auburn Hills."
"...I gotta take a shit!". Words we've all said and heard before. But coming from Mark was unexpected, and thus made my soda sip come up through my nose! Thanks, Mark!
The caveat of “if you have a warranty if you buy it or lease it, you’re gonna be so happy,” is that in reference to long-term reliability? That’s the one thing I’ve been mulling over...I want one, but plan on keeping it for 10-15 years and over 100,000 miles. I wonder how it’s reliability would be over such a span?
Never owned an FCA product, but seriously digging the TRX!
The cinematography is on point ☝🏻
You are slowly but surely becoming a first class comedy act.
You guys are awesome... been watching your reviews forever. You always offer the perfect blend of humor and information. =]
Wow what a great first look! This channel has original top gear vibes.
Definitely the best review of the TRX thus far.
Your cinematography and music choices are always top notch with your reviews, especially this one. As for the Ram TRX itself, it's extremely impressive and I'm really happy to see a true Ford Raptor competitor now.
Keep up the good reviews while staying safe out there, SavageGeese! I'm eager to see your next reviews on other new vehicles like the new 2021 Chevrolet Suburban, Ford F-150, etc whenever you get the safe opportunity to borrow one of them for a review.
Gee Whiz! These videos keep getting better & better. Thanks for this.
Speed academy hoodie. A man of culture I see.
Suffering from constipation? Ask your doctor if the TRX on a Nevada off-road course is right for you.
Best Comment.
"I guess you would need this if you're angry and run a ranch" lmfao
I'm so glad you guys got to go to this press release and share with us. It's a car I'll never own but enjoyed every second of your video
One of the more succinct review comments I've seen: "I imagine this is what it's like if you're angry and you own a ranch"
Whoever does the camera work ❤️❤️❤️ absolutely gorgeous.
Mark and I swap off. This time mark did the drone work and i got the slider work done. Thanks for the kind words.
@@jackholmes8105 all the shots are just crisp and clean. I appreciate you guys! Keep up the amazing work!
Your videos are amazing. I love all the technical analysis; really looking forward to part 2. Also, that Cayman GTS 👀
Can't wait for the next vid! Keep up the great work as always!
You two make a great team. Don't miss turbokowski at all.
Y’ALL NEED MORE DAMN SUBS! Excellent video as always.
Probably the greatest offroad review of all-time
Awesome photography/video editing.
Hopefully this is a turning point in quality and longevity for FCA because this is one cool truck.
Awww fuq yeah! Looking forward to that 718 GTS 4.0 content! If I had another $40K and didn't have to wait till Jan/Feb to order one the way I wanted I'd grab one of those over the M2C!
FCA deserves some credit here. They could have just mated a Power Wagon with a Raptor and called it a day but instead they went all out with a truck that shouldn't exist. Can't wait for the full review.
Definitely a fun truck. We enjoyed driving it!!
8:02-8:13 should immediately cut to the
8:59 mickey mouse laugh Jack makes, all overlaid with the face Jack made at 8:30 jumping the truck.
Love the videos, great work as always!
Love the honest reaction when off road ing
You guys produce the best videos!!!
I LOVE IT!!!! It looks like so much fun!!!! I LOVE THE METALLIC BLUE!!!! SUGGESTION: Please consider building a 2WD version and call it the TRX REDEYE. Just like the REDEYE Challenger. With a T-56. option.
I'm really waiting for the press video.. one of my top channels with magnificent efforts and a treasure of informations I'm really appreciate your Work working guys, love from kuw🔥👊
“If I didn’t have to take a shit this will jar it loose now” love that line lmaaoooo 😂😂
"If I didn't have to take a shit before, this will jar it loose."
That's the kind of hard hitting journalism you're just not going to get anywhere else.
The comments are awesome on this one guys!
When off-roading usually you would be going slower (smaller engines, in low range), with deflated higher profile tires 38" on 16" rims, aftermarket monster suspension & travel, then it's a bit more tolerable (as in not requiring Depends for Mark). The TRX want's to be a trophy truck with twice the weight and 1/4 of the suspension travel.
Gotta take a $h1t! Epic review. Loved it!
I really hope this makes Ford put the V8 back into the Raptor.
I love competition
I think they are actually. 2021 maybe.
Why? The v6 is much better. The only thing that would be better than the v6 would be a 4 liter v8 with twin turbos in a hot V configuration. Purely just for the v8 sound. Not necessarily performance. OR what would be TRULY amazing is if they just put a huge 7.7L high compression natually apserated high reving DOHC V8 in it. Massive torque from the displacement and high hp from the high revs. Win win.
@@followthegrow108 the v6 is for men who are very sexually secure and have small pp
I was not expecting jumps, this thing is wild
It's cool seeing FCA recognizing that having flagship performance models is good for branding. Before the Hellcat/Demon lineup I never understood why anyone would purchase a dodge/ram new because the brand just didn't have anything exciting about it. While these top end models may not sell incredibly well, I feel like just having them in their lineup definitely helps sales of their lesser cars. The brand isn't just any old boring car company anymore, there's something exciting and youthful about them because they're willing to produce cars that they know might not sell that well, but are crazy and fun nonetheless.
Cannot wait to see your full review!
Speaking from east europe, this is the product wich makes America great place in my eyes.
0:12 Fast enough to chase down teens in a STI and with the bed capacity for the entire chainsaw collection. Its Dodge Demon and Forestry Truck Todd all in one package.
I am interested in its chainsaw carrying capacity.
Cant believe they did this event by my hometown. These videos make me want to move back.
I want a Mr Goosey action figure for Christmas. Does it come with it's very own Jack Singapore hand puppet or is that sold separately?
7:29 most epic vehicle review quote ever!
Been watching for a long time. Your reviews, explanation and format were a huge kicking off point for my training videos at work.
What camera gear do you use? Thanks Mr. Goose
It’s hilarious watching guys who spend all day in Mercedes and BMWs try off roading for the first time
they use volvo and corvette
@@valpanig Yes but they review a lot of German cars and luxury cars
Mark’s “if my civic has 4WD it can do this” comment made my day.
Nice to see a company compete against Ford's Raptor. (Agreed - Huge mistake to place a V-6 in the raptor). I would like to see a smaller, lighter truck with a 5.7L V-8 also. Great review as always!
A few years ago the high end pickup truck was $45,000. Now its $90,000?!
My wages haven’t doubled so since I couldn’t afford it before, I definitely can’t afford this one either. Ridiculous.
Who makes Jack Singapore's and where can I buy one?
All 215 pounds if it.
Hilarious video as always, thanks guys!
For those curious, the song at 6:51 is called "Struggle in the Jungle" by Kikoru
Yes, people do that stuff for fun. I'll be 68 y/o next month and I still do that after 35+ years of it.
I was sooo happy... until you squished the snickers bar. Appalling.
Keep up the good work, boys! 👍🏼
I've always wondered the hardware you guys use for your filming. What's the rig or rigs you guys use and what video editing and color editing software have you had the best luck with? Just generally curious, you guys have been destroying it in terms of car display like my God and you guys make cars look good. Keep killing it!
Be kinda interesting if Ford and Ram would make base model versions of their trucks with the same offroad components as these top-tier offerings. The prices are just so damn high
What’s the story with fondling the Snickers bar @12:05? (I missed how that tied into the review of the interior space/material quality.)
Really a great truck.
Maybe nobody really needs it but that is to be said about so many expensive products.
At least it will make some enthusiasts happy!
