Dodge Ram SRT-10 Regular Cab Information: |
| |
| On Feb. 2, 2004 an unmodified
500-horsepower, Viper-powered Dodge Ram SRT-10 earned a spot in the
Guinness Book of World Records as the world’s fastest production
pickup truck with a measured top speed of 154.587 mph (248.783 kph)
sustained over a flying kilometer. Not only is it fast, the Ram
SRT-10 is also quick, with 0-60 mph times in the low five-second
range. |
| |
| For 2005 Dodge Truck Enthusiasts
now have two choices of the boldest, most outrageous pickups ever
sold. The Dodge Ram SRT-10 and SRT-10 Quad Cab both feature a
8.3-liter (505 cu. in.) Viper V-10 engine making 500 horsepower (372
kW) and 525 lb.-ft. (712 N•m) of torque. The Dodge Ram SRT-10
Regular Cab is still the logical choice for the performance truck
enthusiast who would rather see a clutch pedal than two extra doors
in the boldest, baddest pickup on the planet. |
| |
| The Ram SRT-10 puts its V-10 to
work through a T-56 six-speed manual transmission fitted with a
Hurst shifter. For 2005, a new drivetrain enhancement has been added
to further help get that power to the road: The Ram SRT-10 now has a
new 4.56 axle ratio to improve launch feel and low-end acceleration.
The Dodge Ram SRT-10 rides on 22-inch Viper-style custom wheels.
Regular cab models are equipped with 305/40 R22 Pirelli Scorpion
tires. |
| |
| Stopping fast is just as important
as going fast, so SRT engineers developed a special braking system
for the Ram SRT-10 that utilize heavy-duty Dodge Ram components and
unique four-pot opposed-piston calipers that are new for 2005. A
three-channel anti-lock braking system (ABS) actuates new custom red
brake calipers up front that grip 15-inch rotors, and in the rear,
modified heavy-duty red calipers grip 14-inch rotors. Additionally,
front brakes are cooled with air ducted from the front fascia to
reduce heat build-up. |
| |
| There’s also a unique hood with
fully functional air intake that provides additional engine bay
cooling. Details befitting the Ram SRT-10’s outrageous attitude
include “Viper Powered” badges on the hood sides and a specially
designed rear fascia with cutout for the massive dual exhaust tips.
New for 2005 on the styling side of the Ram SRT-10 Regular Cab is an
optional body-color aluminum tonneau cover over the pickup bed,
outfitted with a unique spoiler for aerodynamic efficiency. An
optional Protective Pickup Box Tray is also available with the
tonneau cover. Body color choices for the 2005 Regular Cab Dodge Ram
SRT-10 include black, red and silver. |
| |
| The interior for the Ram SRT-10
regular Cab is a blend of comfort and performance-bred utility,
starting with the Viper-like red starter button on the instrument
panel, and following through with race-inspired heavily bolstered
seats with suede inserts that grip the occupants. Other interior
touches include a leather-wrapped carbon fiber-patterned steering
wheel, and brushed metal accents on the instrument panel and door
trim panels. |
