Dodge T-Rex 6x6 rolls over Camera man
THe Dodge T-Rex rolls over a camera man for an underside look of the Dodge T-Rex 6x6. Amazingly it is almost all stock, except for the Rockwell axles, suspension(made from Dodge components), bumper and roll cage. This truck proves the toughness of the Dodge label by showing 140K mile on the odometer. That means that this truck has survived 140,000 miles of the most gruling abuse that any truck should have to experience. It has been under water 7 times, on its side, in the mud ,rocks, heat and cold. This truck just keeps on going and going and going.....
It also keeps winning and winning in the competition scene. What a fun ride.

For more examples of abuse just search You Tube for Dodge T-Rex videos.
Enjoy your ride.

How does this prove the toughness of one of Chrysler's worst vehicles? That truck is great of extreme fabrication that is is far more thought out than "made from Chrysler parts." I can't for the life of me figure out why you would credit Chrysler with ANY of the hard work seen here.
Sweet truck, but Chrysler still blows.

Uh... no?
I'm pretty sure the whole point of a forum is to share information and opinions. I've shared mine.

The engine is stock, tranny, transfer case, power steering pump( that not only runs the steering but also the hydralic winch), frame, cab, electircal, computers...all dodge. THe drive train is so tough that after one competition ( where 10 trucks of all makes started across the staring line and only two crossed the finish line) we drained the tranny fluid and there was water and mud in the pan. I drained it, put in fresh fluid, and put another 38,000 miles on it, NO PROBLEM!!!!! This V10 has been under water a dozen times and no problems. Even the stereo has been underwater and covered in mud, and it still works fine. All electircal works perfect after all this much bashing, vibration, water, and wear. I dont tink you can do that with any other brand.
I have owned about every make, 47 vehicles in all. My Dodge Tow rig pulls 27,880 pounds. I put 225,800 miles on it with only the crank sensor failing. THat's it. My Ford Power Chock Super Dud was a finacial black hole with nothing but troubles, nothing worked. My 2005 Chevy Duramax, has been plaged with problems,(4x4 works intermittantly, leaks, electricla problems, guages that stop workingetc....) Out of my last 5 Dodg trucks I have logged over 1.5 million miles and the only failures I have hadwith all five were:1 crank sensor, 1carrier bearing, and a radiator leak....that's it.....5 truck.....1.5 M miles...that is outstanding.
Now for some stats. My friend worsk in one of the southwests largest recovery towing businesses and repair center. I asked him what he has to tow more of. The answer was:
Average break down tow per month:
FORD 38
CHevy 12
Dodge 7 Most of the failures wiere trannys due to people towing. The few recoveries of the Dodges were due to OVerheating of the Auto Tranny. He said it is never one of the Standard trannys except for an occasional clutch going out..
If anybody thinks their Ford or Chevy is better than My Dodge...Let's go..... I pick the course and you try and follow....

So if IF you want to bash Dodge you first better get your facts straight.

Oh well, you are entitled to both. It's the differences that make this country great.

lol jk.
But in all seriousness I agree with 011500Ram. Do that to a stock pickup and then credit chrysler. Modify into something completely custom, credit the builders.

Good to know I'm not the only one alone on that thought. That truck is 1000% custom work. There are thousands of hours of fabrication and design work there. To credit ANY of that to Chrysler is just ridiculous. Props to the builder, not to Chrysler.
