My Black Beauty (TRX)

Yep, thats one helluva stable and a McLaren on the way too? Dayum.

I get out to Ludington every year or so for some disc golf. Great courses out that way.

A friend of mine told me about it a while ago & gave me the info on it.

I just never registered for it, not really into these forums.

He did say it would help me, just never signed up.

He mentioned yesterday while we were gaming, so here I am.

Had the truck for months, live in West Michigan.

Nice! What were you gaming on?

Level 2, tech group, tow pkg... (Hellcat Durango is my wifes) My 2018 R8 V10+ Pic is from August. New boat, had a Starcraft 28ft. Towing is okay.

I also have a Charger Redeye, the gearing is much different in the TRX. Other than the squat, towing is really good.

Did the TRX struggle with the towing or was it enough?

Water-cooled PC I built, towing is great, I just don't like the sag. I have pulled several boats with her. I had an F-350 with the Power-Stroke & it was flawless. I would give the TRX a 7 with the F-350 being a 10

are you using a weight distributing hitch? That will help with the sag.

No, you're the 2nd person to suggest it...

I was surprised to hear that the brakes are good.(about the 10:30 min mark) TRX owners say that they are the weak link and need improvement if you maintain high speed runs.
What do you think?

I have not been driving it like that(still break in period). I would think if you were driving it like it was a race car and braking a lot the brakes would probably start fading.

Yeah that sag didn't look good in your pic. If you are going to tow alot with it, ever thought of bags? Not sure if that will ruin the "offroad" suspension?
