2021 Ram TRX

Will this RAM be a good tow vehicle?

Dodge boys!
Zoom Zoom!

Must be a blast to drive, but at 1300# payload, not much of a tow vehicle.

Also the truck has full time 4 wheel drive. Not sure I care for that but it's probably because of the power.

^Only way to keep the back tires under it!

Here's a video of the Ram TRX vs the Ford Raptor. Not a fan of the full time 4 wheel drive and the large plastic shroud that hides the Hemi engine otherwise it's a impressive truck for the gear heads that is advertised to pull a 4.5 sec 0-60.

Todays full time 4 wheel drive in not your grandfathers full time 4 wheel drive system. The system in our Ford Edge ST is pretty much transparent. Launching it is seamless for a 4500 pound SUV and only having a 2.7L V6 to turn 0-60 in 5.7 and 98/14.3 in the 1/4 mile is not bad. Oh yeah, it is a twin turbo with 335HP and 380 lb ft.

Car and Driver just drove it, 0-60 in 3.7, quarter mile in 12.3 @ 110 mph. That's one quick (but thirsty) truck.

What is the power split from front to rear? That AWD system must be built hell for stout to hold up to that kind of power.
