For those of you whom wished that the SRT division would bring back a modified Ram, this one's for you. A 392 crate motor for an SRT Challenger was dropped into the engine bay along with custom shorty headers and an 87mm throttle body. The rear end was then converted to an Eaton POSI along with a 4.56 final drive. There's now a fan assisted external transmission cooler and a water cooled oil filter assembly. The entire dyno tune and adjust was handled by the absolute best in the country, Josh at HHP and AJ of Arrington. The result? How about 404/438 at the wheels of smooth, pure power. No check engine lights, no error codes, no drama. No expense was spared and the results are amazing. This truck eats stock SRT vehicles and the Viper Ram trucks.

With the engine, tuning and driveline sorted, it was time to turn the attention to the suspension. Custom engineered RideTech coilovers with complete adjustability were added to each corner. They were adjusted via corner weighting and optimized for balance and smooth ride. To get the lowered stance but not lose any of the ride, we turned to MCG drop spindles in the front and an adjustable panhard bar in the back. The alignment is spot on and the truck rides on rails yet handles bumps like a dream. This is a $2000 suspension in shocks alone, and the feel and quality of the ride is its reward. Finishing off the handling side is a set of 22" SRT chrome truck rims with staggered tires sized at 285/45 and 305/45 in Goodyear Fortera SL. The tires are practically spotless with no abnormal wear, plugs or other drama.

Now on to the fun stuff: Cosmetics and bolt ons. We added the full fender flares and painted them to match the truck. The rear tail lamps are LED units lightly smoked and the front lights are Euro spec light smoke. There's an S&B intake, Solo Catback Exhaust, Custom Y-Pipe, Full Bed Rug and the best of class tonneau, the Undercover Lux painted the factory Mopar black. 

And for the true aficionado, you'll notice that this is a three seater. How is that you say? The Ram R/T's only came with the center console. Well, a local Dodge dealer performed the swap over including the seat belts, column shifter and revised center dash cupholder. The result: The ability to safely bring two other people along for the ride with absolutely no cutting, welding or other nonsense. Nothing but factory Mopar parts all around and the interior is like it rolled off the assembly line that way.

So why you ask is such a truck for sale? Because my six month labor of love needs to find a new home. Recent events have left my business in need of the cash and my pride and joy will have to go. My hope is that she finds her way to someone that appreciates the level of difficulty it takes to build a truck like this one the right way. Anybody can cram a big motor into something but making it operate like it is from the factory, well that takes time, money and most importantly, only the best tuners and installers. This Ram has just under $35K to make her complete and the buy in from the dealer was around $30K. My rationale: A $65K truck that can do all this, and the only one in the United States with this setup, is a bargain compared to other SRT vehicles. 

So rest assured that you're buying the best from a guy that cares and has a perfect record here on Ebay. I don't sell garbage and I do what needs to be done to make the sale right for both of us. 

**Feel free to shoot me offers as I'm highly motivated yet cautiously looking for the right buyer as well.**

**Trades will also be considered**

Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015

Mon, 10 Feb 2014

Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper.
For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011.
The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors.

2019 Ram Rebel 12 is luxurious off-road truck named for ... its touchscreen

Fri, Sep 21 2018

When Ram came out with the totally redone 1500 pickup this year, the off-road-leaning Rebel didn't have Ram's giant 12-inch touchscreen as an option. Ram is remedying that omission with a new model called the Rebel 12. Yeah, it's pretty weird to name the car after the size of the infotainment screen, but that's what Ram came up with. The new model is more than just a screen, though. Ram is using it to throw in a few different tech and luxury options that we don't see in the more barebones Rebel. For one, it gets a 19-speaker, 900-watt Harman Kardon sound system with metal speaker grilles. You'll also get leather seats all around, and they're heated up front. So what will all this cost you? The Rebel 12 starts at $48,685, including destination charges — about $3,000 more than the base Rebel. That price gets you everything mentioned above and all the cool Rebel stuff including a lift kit, locking rear differential, Bilstein shocks, 33-inch tires and the tough-looking appearance features. Keep in mind that this base price is still only the V6 with rear-wheel drive. You can send it far higher when you start tacking on desirable options like the Hemi V8 and four-wheel drive. Ram says the luxurious Rebel 12 will be available in the fourth quarter of 2018. View 5 Photos Featured video: This content is hosted by a third party.

2014 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel gets 9,200-pound tow rating

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

The current-generation Ram 1500 is entering its fifth year on the market, but Ram's half-ton truck is not showing its age whatsoever. While we continue to wait for the fuel economy figures for the all-new EcoDiesel V6, Ram has released towing figures for trucks equipped with this new engine, as well as models fitted with the upgraded gasoline-powered V6.
The EcoDiesel - a $2,850 option - will help the Ram compete with V8-powered trucks with its max towing capacity of 9,200 pounds, which is just 50 pounds shy of the 2013 Ram 1500 with the 5.7-liter V8. The true benefit here is that the diesel should return impressive fuel economy in the process, and even though official estimates have yet to be released, Chrysler has promised that it will achieve more than 25 miles per gallon on the highway.
But even with the Pentastar 3.6-liter V6, upgrades to the eight-speed automatic transmission have resulted in an increase in towing capacity, now up to 7,450 pounds. This number is expected to be best in class for base-engine trucks.
