If the TRX had been engineered for the 6.4 instead of the Hellcat, I'd bet it would cost at least 5 grand cheaper, if not closer to 10 grand.
Power isn't everything. If GM were to release the Silverado ZRX with the 6.2...sure it might be a bit outgunned but still anything but slow and/or underpowered. Also, It would probably be priced right with the Raptor.

I agree with KMP here. I know the Raptor and TRX are more baja style but I don't get the appeal of all that HP in a off road vehicle. I mean I get the why not approach but I don't get the practical approach.
Had they gone street truck route, yeah I totally get a 700hp truck. An off road truck? I don't get it
