this is cool. I dont blame you for sticking with the JT, i loved mine too The TRX is my fifth Ram. Have had a big horn (2007), a Sport (2010) and two limiteds (2012 and 2016). The TRX is a little different all around than those. It was really the halo nature of the trx plus the insane used car...
Here’s my window sticker. A little over $79k before markup. He had about $7k on markup but came down a little to get the deal done.
TRX Window Sticker
there was a small dealer markup. Sticker was $79k. I paid mid $80’s but it did have windows tinted, ceramic coating, and we got a 60k mile bumper to bumper warranty. If i can find a digital window sticker i will post.
In terms of advertised price it was the cheapest one within 300 miles of me...
12 mpg….prob closer to 10 after i get thru break in and can open it up. Sleek for a truck bur i will still have to look into some carbon offsets. Lol

Just a small update. Got a mopar winch bar from a forum member and went stubby with the rubi steel bumper. I need to repaint my artec winch cover plate under my fairlead but that will be another day.
@Mthorsen i finally put on the mopar winch bar you gave me. Also took off the wings of my bumper to change things up. Need to repaint the artec cover plate under my fairlead.
OP,
To answer your question there are several manufacturers repping a 4 inch lift but relatively few repping a six inch lift. BDS and Evo manufacturing are two of the more complete kits i have seen at 6 inches. Rough Country also makes one, though quality may be debatable depending on who you...
Do what you want to that leased vehicle and just trade it in during the last 90 days of the lease. Jeeps hold their head well on resale market. Last resort, return it to stock and sell the parts during same timeframe.
get a budget boost with the 35’s.
The clearance and 4x4 capability will probably help you find more parking “opportunities”. The road noise is real but I daily drive mine with 37 inch mud terrains. Prob cant take a conf call in motion and hear it but conversation inside cab is fine. Results may vary.
