Trading in a TRX for an RHO?

[MrOCano]

This will be my first time owning a RAM. I am trading a 2021 Jeep Gladiator for it. I have been surprised at the number of people on several posts that are trading in their TRX for an RHO!! For those in that boat.. what would you say is your main reason for doing so? (Assuming fuel economy will be the biggest).

Clunk, chirp, better daily driver and feeling that it will be an out of warranty time bomb

Biggest thing for me would be the range. Feels like i just fill up and by end of the day I’m already lost 1/4 of tank. By 2/4 of the tank the truck is already screaming at me low fuel and disabling the remote start.
But i also want the new color and the 2k inverter. Wont be ordering until those two items become available. Also the price, from what i can gather with the deals offered by the dealers on this forum and by trade in offers i get from instant offers. I should be able to trade straight across for new truck with more features with only 164 less hp but better range. Which works for my needs doing long range camping and hauling light loads.

Will miss racing mustangs and corvettes off the line snd watching their surprised faces. But small price to pay.

164 hp is a lot. My first car was a 60 hp VW Superbeetle. So you’re giving up 2.73 Superbeetles - how could you sleep at night?
