Very cool! I bet it's a custom conversion though.

There actually were some Ram Chargers built by Chrysler off of the 2nd Gen Ram Truck. It was produced in Mexico between 1999 - 2001/2002, not 1997. It wasn't marketed in the US. Here is a picture of one. Notice how the window is different between the 2 trucks, and the location of the gas door is different. The slope / rear door is different as well.





Edit: here is a thread that may have a little more info http://ramchargercentral.com/rcs-tds...-trailcharger/

Yea definitely not one of the Mexican ones, that looks more like a big Durango to me. I like the look of the conversion better, though there's something about the back hatch that looks off. Think it would look better with a tailgate with the rollup window inside.

Yeah, I think the conversion is better too. From what I've read, on the Mexican ones, the hatch back is from the Dodge Grand Caravan...

We have a local diesel crew Facebook page in Nebraska now that has a few hundred people who love to help each other out. Went around a curve on gravel and hit a drainage rut in the road and slid my car into a ditch. Put out an SOS on the Facebook page and had someone there in ten minutes to pull my out!

I am not very knowledgeable with diesel, but after a point doesn't an extremely large exhaust negatively affect performance?
