Powerful and Confident, 2017 Ram Power Wagon is Ready For Some Off-Road Challenges

2017 Ram Power Wagon Ram continues its campaign of delivering only superior quality pickups and proves it one more time with the 2017 Power Wagon. Massive and powerful, this beast will defend brand’s positions as off-road truck leader.

Based on the Ram 2500 Heavy Duty 4×4 Crew Cab, the Power Wagon offers extended list of standard features, some drivetrain refinements as special suspension fine-tunes, locking differentials and a 12,000-lb. winch. But let’s waste no more time and see why this vehicle is so awesome.

Exterior design

Similar to the 1500 Rebel, the Power Wagon demonstrates completely redesigned grille with the well-known Billet Silver RAM letter badge. The front is further enhanced with the Black bezel bi-functional projector headlamps with LED marker lights, while the vent-stamped hood also comes with Gloss Black graphic.

2017 Ram Power Wagon

Furthermore, the front and rear bumpers also received some attention. The front bumper manages to hide the 12,000-lb. winch, roller fairlead and the 125 feet of line. Cool. And at the same time the exclusive and distinctive 17-inch forged multi-surface aluminum wheels with Silver outer and Matte Black inner fit perfectly the 33-inch tires and do contribute to that massive and powerful stance.

Also, the Power Wagon is available as a Tradesman Crew Cab 4×4. This option does not include the same interior and exterior characteristics, but what it does include is the same off-road equipment.

Interior Design

The Power Wagon comes with redesigned cabin space that now includes major changes as wrapped and stitched surfaces, along with some functionality upgrades.

Vehicle’s interior comes with Diesel Gray and Black finish with Sedoso fabric inserts with Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac pattern that matches Power Wagon’s actual footprint. Also, the front seats with heated feature show their distinctive and exclusive Light Slate Gray accents and of course, the notorious Ram logo.

The central stack and doors are finished in Iron Gray Metallic, while the Satin Chrome vent rings outline air output points and the cluster. The steering wheel is also wrapped in exclusive Black leather with optional heat feature. It contains Slate Gray X-stitches. Sweet.

Drivetrain system

Definitely the most important and most interesting part of the machine is the drivetrain system. And here is why. The vehicle is geared with 6.4-liter HEMI 16-valve V8 unit that produces a total of 410hp (301kW) and torque rate of 429lb-ft at 4,000 rpm. Interesting feature is the enhancement of the off-road capabilities via the unique four-wheel-drive system that intelligently responses and distributes power to all the wheels. This power unit is mated to either 66RFE six-speed automatic gearbox.

2017 Ram Power Wagon

Also worth mentioning is the suspension system that includes Blistein shocks, modifier control arms, spring rates and more than two inches of lift.

On the other hand, the brake system is also impressive. The four-wheel disc brakes are now standard feature on all 2017 Ram Heavy Duty Truck models. The front rotors measure 14.17-inch inches in diameter and are clamped with dual-piston calipers. The rear rotors are 14.09 inches with dual-piston calipers.

Additional equipment

Ram Power Wagon offers some sweet and useful systems and technologies as power-folding mirrors and pwoer rear-sliding window with defrost function. Also, there is one-touch, central locking with RamBox cargo management and tailgate power locks that contribute to the overall functionality. And let’s not forget about the spray-in bedliner, LED bedlighting, front and rear par-assist system, power-adjustable pedals and remote start that are also available.

Special Ram 1500 Edition Celebrates the Rangers [VIDEO]

Dodge is one of the most popular American brands that has produced the famous 707HP Hellcat. It is also the main manufacturer of all Ram vehicles. The range of the latter has been expanded by the addition of the Ram 1500 Texas Ranger Concept. The truck is a creative result of company’s collaboration with the law-enforcement agency and the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum. It aims to bring the iconic Rangers’ spirit onto the road.

The vehicle was introduced at the 2015 Dallas Auto Show, and this is where it wowed the public with its exterior and interior characteristics. The celebration of the Rangers can be seen via the emblematic silver Lone Star Ranger badge and it can be found both inside and out.

The exterior of this Texas Ranger concept has everything typical for the brand. However, there are some accents like the badging (different from the one mentioned above). It was designed to be an example of the Mexican five-peso coins from which Ranger badges are made.

The next big thing (literally) about this concept vehicle is its wheels. They come in the size of 20 inches and are made of polished-aluminum. Milled-aluminum Texas Ranger center cap is making a strong accent on them. At last, the truck comes in a two-tone exterior paint scheme: Bright White and Bright Silver Metallic.

Stepping inside, one sees the same Ranger design cues everywhere. First, there is this Canyon Brown and Tan leather. It is highlighted by tooled-metal details and one-off Texas Ranger edition accents. To name some, Mexican five-peso silver coins are inlaid within the door bolsters, while the steering wheel is accentuated by milled-aluminum, features distressed-finish Ram badge and tan accent “X” stitching.

Ram Texas Ranger edition will travel around Texas with the purpose to expand the awareness for the Texas Rangers Hall of Fame and Museum. This means that Dodge has no future plans of making this truck a production version. So sad, isn’t it?

Take a look at this outrageous Dodge Ram Black & Red [VIDEO]

2014 Avorza Dodge Ram 3500 Black & Red Edition by Alex Vega We have seen this vehicle circulating in the internet for a while, but it has been trading lately so we decided to show it to you once more. And it is definitely worth it because we have rarely seen projects like this and with so beautifully shot video which you can enjoy below (I am sure it will be a big pleasure).

As you can see this is a Dodge Ram 3500 and it has been dubbed Black & Red Edition. It is a product created by Alex Vega – The Auto Firm. This powerfully customized pick up seems to be carrying a bunch of additional styling enhancements that also hint towards boost in performance.

Unfortunately, the Ram comes with styling modifications only, meaning that it retains the power of its standard 6.7 liter inline-six Cummins diesel engine. In details, it produces 350 horsepower (260 kW) and 880 Nm (650 lb-ft), which is also impressive. This output is transferred onto the road via a six speed automatic that drives the all four wheels.

Although there is no information on the styling tweaks we can clearly see that the pick-up truck sports black metallic paint finish that has been accentuated by a lot red accents. Take a look for example at the red Ram badge at both ends, the band in the same color circulating around the massive two-tone wheels and the side signs.

It is also visible that the head lights received red highlights while the taillights have been blackened out. Low profile Pirellis are a must as is the fully-adjustable air suspension. We don’t know whether the interior of this vehicle has been changed or not, so we leave this part of the tuning at the depths of your imagination. Any suggestions?

Ram Releases Two 1500 Sport Crew Cab 4×4 Trims

Two new Sport trim models are going to enhance the lineup of Ram’s 1500 4×4 Crew Cab vehicles, and these are the Ignition Orange Sport and the Black Sport. Both buzz models will have a limited production run of only 1000 units each, making them even more desirable. And it is really worth it, because these trims deliver more individuality than ever before.

Although there are no pictures of the interior, Ram says that it includes body color stitching throughout the cabin as well as Sport embroidery and Ram’s head on the seat backs and the headrests, respectively. In addition, the seat inserts received colored accent sport mesh.

In total contrast, the Black Sport has received its name for a reason. Not only because of the body color, but also because it has taken some design cues from the Black Express package. This means that it is equipped with black 20 inch wheels and features a sport hood.

Inside, everything is wrapped in black leather and to accentuate this Ram designers added Light Black chrome highlights. Furthermore, both trucks will be equipped with the 8.4AN Uconnect system that offers navigation and rear view camera.

Another thing in common is the HEMI V-8 engine mated to the 8-speed TorqueFlite transmission and producing 395 horsepower (290 kW). Both new vehicles will also include 3.92 gear set, dual exhaust and a vented sport hood.
