I like that color and those rims look better than I expected.

So what is the difference between the Ram 500 and the SRT-10??

For some reason I like the look of the hood and I especially like how dirty the engine is already.

Looks awesome, can't wait to see them on the road for real.

The Ram 500 is weird, because usually it's a 1500/2500/3500. That just designates the base model of it, like F150/F250/F350/etc. It looks like they took a Ram 1500 and just took the "1" off to make it unique, and easily noticeable as an SRT-10, maybe?

would have easier to just put "SRT10" on the side...

not like Dodge isn't always ripping off Ford ideas....

XLT = SLT
XLT Lariat = SLT Laramie

and the list goes on.... but thats a new thread

I'm not the biggest Dodge truck fan, but that thing doesn't look horrible at all. In fact, I think if it was a different color (black ), it would look borderline OK.

I actually liked the original unvieled one better, wing, rims and all. Wish the guy has posted a little history, where it came from, who owns it, how much etc etc. Im kinda puzzled why it doesnt say srt 10.

50,000 for this POS!

I guess it would be ok for 30,000. But this is not a 50,000 vehicle at all. Its a frekking dudge 1500 with a viper engine in it.Plus its ugly as hell, and simply put, not practical.

one of the reasons i heard they might go with the "500" is:
it's over 500 ci,hp, lb/ft, watts. there was also some history of a dodge "500", that they want to ressurect, like they did with the hemi namesake. there were polara 500, charger 500, etc

Id venture to say that since it is a pre production model that dodge didnt have the SRT emblems yet and opted to modify a 1500 badge to make do, or its possibly a regular ram 1500 they pulled off the line to install and test the SRT package. Id be willing to bet the production truck differs from this one... Proper badging, different wheels and other small trim Items.
