Well nice try by mopar, however still has the 5 speed tranny (I think they still use that), still don't have a locking diff, still no off road mode/hill descent/other electronic goodies, and it's still a Ram!

Pretty ****** in my opinion, but nice to see an attempt at competition to the raptor.

You can do whatever you want to your Dodge but at the end of the day it is still a Dodge. They need to make a kit that turns it into a Ford. It needs a new frame, engine, transnmission, etc. Ford for now, forever!

Its the cheapest trip 1500. You can tell by the headlights. So, your paying over $70k for something with NO luxury with it. The piggy back reservoir front shocks are nice though.

Man that would SUCK. I kind of like having all the creature comforts on the inside of my Raptor. This is a very weird approach by Dodge to just make it an option package for any truck. In one respect it's kinda cool because theoretically you could throw this kit on an SRT10 if you had the money, but in another respect, if you're just trying to get the most truck for the least money. You wind up in a stripped down ram with LT suspension.

I dunno, maybe there's a demand for that out there that I don't know about though.

And the warranty issue. It's all technically aftermarket parts, even though it's offered by Mopar.

You'd think they'd at least have that angle squared away prior to it coming out. Although I'm sure there would have to be some addition to the warranty concerning "high speed off road driving" similar to the Raptor.
