Dodge Ram 1500 Stinger Yellow... Sport

Ram made just a little more obvious with a bright yellow special edition



Big but not especially clever, American pick-ups are a bit of a guilty pleasure on PH. Why? Hard to pin down exactly, but there's something about a fitness for purpose that appeals. In the same way you would pick a Caterham for track driving, if you're in the States and need to move stuff, you get a pick-up. It's more interesting than an MPV, right?

Here's the latest from America, the Dodge Ram Stinger Yellow 1500 Sport. It follows the Ram 1500 Yellow Rose of Texas introduced in March. And yes, they are both real names.

The Stinger is, unsurprisingly, only offered in yellow with additional yellow highlights inside. Engine is V8 and V8 only (truck yeah!), the 395hp Hemi mated to an eight-speed automatic. Buyers can choose from Crew Cab 4x2 or 4x4 variants, the former with 22-inch wheels and the latter with 20s. In case the paint hadn't made it blindingly obvious, the Stinger also receives a chrome tipped exhaust and a 'vented sport hood'.

Dodge will make just 2,250 Stinger Yellow Sports. They are arriving at Ram dealers this month, with prices from $44,340. Or £30,700. Catch 'em while you can!

What "sport" exactly?
