All this needs is some deep, wide torque thrust D's around 18" with the spokes powder coated black and the wheel lips polished and this is hot business.

Yeah, the black wheels and a 6spd manual tranny would be SWEET!

Dodge seem to be making awesome vehicles and forgetting key things lately.

I have never got into the sport truck mindset. Raised on a farm, I still see a pickup as a work vehicle. I was glad Chrysler had a V10 Ram for bragging rights, but if you're going to pay $50k for a sports "car", why not get something lighter and less top heavy? Same goes for pickups with leather interiors and "luxury" nonsense. If I need to haul something, I don't want to worry about being too dirty to get in the thing. To each his own, I guess.

Good look but add the option of a 6.1 w/4x4 and a old style shaker hood...

its supposed to be a sport truck model...theres no need to add a ton of weight for 4x4...but the 6.1 would have been a nice addition.

I like the picture in the booklet about the new rams.

Its all black, has different wheels, less srt-10 looking, and more of an actual R/T.

It did sport the same twin snorkel hood though.

I've actually never liked dropped rams but this one looks right.
