Visit Dodge for more information on the Dodge Ram SRT-10.


What do you get when you take a rugged Dodge Ram and add a Dodge Viper's awesome V10 engine, plus a whack of high-performance features? The all-new Dodge Ram SRT-10, the fastest pickup truck on the planet.

In reality, the new 2004 Dodge Ram SRT-10 is really just a sports car in a full-size pickup truck body. It handles like a sports car, is given all the components of a sports car and includes a style that is pure sports-car extreme.

Available Models
The 2004 Dodge Ram SRT-10 is offered in one model.

Interior Features
The most important position in the new Ram SRT-10 is undoubtedly the driver's. That's where all the action takes place.

With this in mind, the interior design was created from the driver's perspective outward. When you notice a 500-watt sound system and see a speedometer that goes up to 150 mph, you know you're in for a ride.

Exterior Features
The new Dodge Ram SRT-10 is available in black, red and silver. It rides on unique 22-inch polished aluminum "Viper-style" wheels, the largest wheels available on a production pickup.

The 2004 Dodge SRT-10 is lowered one-inch in the front and two-inches in the rear, both to control its ridiculous speeds and for looks. It also features ground-effect moldings and "Viper Powered" badges on either side of the hood scoop.

Performance
The SRT-10 goes from 0-60 mph in just over five seconds. It uses the Viper's revamped 8.5-liter, 505-cubic inch V10 engine. Mated with a 6-speed manual transmission, it gives the rear-wheel drive pickup truck 500 horsepower at 5600 rpm and 525 lb-ft of torque at 4200 rpm.

The SRT-10 begins with the stiff hydroformed frame of the regular Ram and then adds a custom-tuned suspension. New front and rear strut assemblies and a rear sway bar were also included to handle the increased cornering loads.

A front fascia with special cooling ducts was seen as an essential component of the heat-generating V10 under the SRT-10's hood. So too were Bilstein mono-tube shock absorbers and performance-tuned springs.

In addition to its massive wheels, the SRT-10 uses 305/40 R22 Pirelli Scorpion tires for extra adhesion-a must with the type of speed being generated. A rear spoiler is as much a stabilizing feature as it is a style one.

Safety and Security
The SRT-10 modifies the Ram's brakes, giving the antilock setup new 15-inch rotors on the front brakes. The rear brakes are modified Ram Heavy Duty with 14-inch rotors, while both front and rear brakes feature unique red calipers.
