Since the Black Express package for the Ram 1500 was well received by the market, Ram thought about extending it to its bigger trucks as well. This is how the Ram Black Appearance Group, an imposing visual appearance treatment for the Ram Heavy Duty (2500 and 3500 SRW), was born.
Set to debut at the Atlanta International Auto Show this week, the Ram Black Appearance Group features an all-black exterior including 20-inch black aluminum wheels, black grille, smoked headlights and taillights, fog lamps, body-color front and rear bumpers and head badges on the grille and tailgate.
All body-side badging has been removed unless if ordered with a Cummins engine. For those trucks, only the diesel designation remains. The package also gets LEDs for park/turn/position lamp, side marker and taillamps, as well as Parkview and Parksense.
The 2014 Ram Heavy Duty Black package is available in Ram 2500 and 3500 SRW, Crew Cab and Mega Cab, Big Horn/Lone Star and Laramie models with the choice of two- or four-wheel-drive. Order books are open, with prices starting from $42,140 (€30,725), plus $1,195 destination charge.
