Vehicle Description
Classic Car Addict is excited to present this 2004 Dodge Ram SRT-10
two-door for sale in our Mesa, AZ showroom. Hot-rod pickups go back
to the 1930s, but it took a while for manufacturers to do their own
sporty trucks. The Dodge Lil' Red Express of 1978 was an early
example, but sporty trucks didn't really become their own thing
until the 1990s, with the GMC Syclone, Chevrolet 454 SS, and Ford
F-150 SVT Lightning all roasting tires between America's
stoplights.
Fast forward another decade, and the Dodge Ram SRT-10 pickup took
things to an even further extreme. It first appeared at the 2002
North American Auto Show in Detroit and hit the market in 2004. The
fastest pickup built to that date, it featured the Dodge Viper's
8.3-liter V-10 engine with 500 bhp and a whopping 525 pound-feet of
torque with a 6-speed manual transmission.
Daimler Chrysler's Dodge SRT-10 gets power windows, power seats,
A/C, cruise control and remote locking. The cab is huge, with 65
cubic feet in which to spread out, and the trim is as elegant as
that of any sports car, with suede-like inserts and satiny leather
side bolsters and armrests. The six-speed gearbox is bold looking,
but shifting this truck is far easier than toggling through the
gears of its Viper sibling, and the steering is as responsive as
that of any decent sedan. Even the audio system is top shelf-an
Infinity setup with AM/FM/SAT, plus an in-dash five-CD changer.
The 8.3-liter V-10 Viper engine has fresh spark plugs and spark
plug wires. The clutch has been rebuilt, and brake rotors have been
upgraded to slotted and drilled. This truck drives just the way
that you would want it too. Clean 22-inch rims, fresh Yokohama
305/40R22 all around and don't miss the power closing bedcover.
This Dodge was built for speed over hauling.
The SRT-10 is more than I expected in a truck. It's very civilized
when puttering around, but when called upon, it just flat-out goes.
