They should focus on not having engines crater before worrying about a very small expensive truck market.

No V8. Weak.


Toyota i-FORCE MAX ENGINE 6
437 HP/583 Lb.-Ft. of Torque

Ford 5.2L supercharged V8 engine (often called the "Carnivore")
720 HP/640 lb-ft of torque

There's no replacement for displacement. 3.4L vs 5.2L



I'm actually surprised they're getting that much torque out of a V6. They must've sacrificed HP for torque on the camshaft.

The Max part of the iForce Max powertrain means it’s a hybrid, which is where the extra bit of torque comes from, but the engine makes 479 lb-ft on its own so it’s no slouch.

Figure out how to make the new engines not grenade first and then work on improving the styles/options. Toyota has lost its way.

It's hard to make a straight-six sound badass.

You’re right the RHO has the turbo. Forgot the TRX has the V8 hellcat engine.

TRX > Raptor > RHO in order.


I certainly understand why TRX is at the top. Why do you rate Raptor above RHO?

That's because it's made by Stellantis. Each comes from the factory with it's very own unique electrical issue that has never been seen before and is completely unfixable.

They are going back to the TRX next year but not sure if they are replacing the RHO name or just adding a higher option.


Didn’t the TRX require premium gas? 10mpg of premium gas, on top of a 6-figure price tag, is just too ridiculous for me, even though it’s an awesome truck.
