The 2017 Ramcharger Concept

Well, we’re pretty shocked and stoked at the same time! We didn’t think this was possible but just as the good folks at Jeep showed us what they can do when concepts meet reality, Ram Truck seems to be making a move to steal the spotlight from their 7-slat brother. So what could be way cooler than this year’s class of slick rock concepts? How about the return of one of the most uniquely american SUV’s ever to roll out of Detroit, The Ramcharger!


What you’re looking at here is the 2017 Ramcharger Concept that Ram Truck snuck out to Easter Jeep Safari 2015. Not just that but the truck’s maiden voyage was a night run to an undisclosed location deep in the trails behind the town of Moab, Utah. Needless to say we are flat out blown away by how cool this concept is.


We were lucky enough to be part of the secret unveiling out on the trail and we're bringing you exclusive coverage thanks to the Dynatrac Moab Experience where we bring you along for the Easter Jeep Safari ride. Today we were able to witness this off-road beast in its natural environment. Yup, it’s really is quite capable. How capable? Basically Ram has taken the Power Wagon recipe and added it to this new two-door body on frame SUV. We’re talking, 6.4-liter HEMI power, Electronic Locking Differentials and sway bar disconnects, and a manual shift transfer case to sweeten the pot.


From what we can tell, Ram Truck is making a bold statement and showing the rest of the truck industry that they aren’t afraid of bringing back an old workhorse rig that any true off-road enthusiast would be thrilled to own. The Blue Oval and the General better take note because this concept SUV is set to outdo the 2016 Ford SVT Bronco craze that swept the nation last year..
