Yeah, that’s going to get people’s attention! The [RAM 1500 TRX]() is a one heck of a blast to drive with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8, tons of suspension benefits and the awesome launch button. Oh and it is a jump landing mode as well. Really. Taking things up a “Block” is the 2022 Ram 1500 TRX Sandblast edition. Well known racing enthusiast [Ken Block]() debuted the new truck for Ram through his social media channels and put it through the paces. He knows a thing or two about the TRX since he owns one. ### **What is the 2022 Ram 1500 TRX Sandblast Edition?** Starting with the exterior, the new Mojave Sand exterior color and graphics alert you to something is different. Then there are unique 18-inch all-black beadlock capable wheels, dual pane panoramic sunroof, spray-in bedliner, bed step, cargo tie downs and LED cab-mounted brake light. Inside, there is Light Frost accent stitching, embroidered TRX seat back logo, unique carbon fiber accents, a leather and carbon-fiber flat-bottom steering wheel, unique center console badge, heads-up display and a driver’s screen that features TRX in Mojave Sand. There are also standard safety features like adaptive cruise control, Lane Keep Assist and pedestrian emergency braking. Oh and yeah, it still has the Raptor eating 6.2-liter V8 producing 702 HP under the hood.
