RAM Black Express: as Dark as Your Soul

Published on April 4, 2014 in New Models by Frédérick Boucher-Gaulin

Stealth planes are painted black to blend in with the night sky, and to help hide from enemy radars. Recently, more and more cars are following this trend, but in the automotive world, the objective is completely opposite: it is done to draw eyes to your ride, to show how evil you are!

Dodge is at the forefront of this trend, with its Blacktop lineup. You can spec up most of the brand’s vehicles with black accents, giving them a menacing look.

If you want to have a RAM with that evil look, you can select the Black Express option on the spec sheet. It gives you 20 inch black aluminium wheels, shiny bits replaced by black-painted ones, projector headlights with black bezels, and a badge delete treatment. Plus, you can have the truck in any color you want, as long as it’s black.

This option group proved to be so popular that RAM is now expanding it to the Heavy-Duty trucks. If you want to drive something that will give nightmares to other drivers, make babies cry when you roar past them and that just might be evil enough to get you banned from your local church, you have just found your chariot.

The Heavy-Duty Black Express has a few select options included, like the backup camera, parking sensors and a chromed Cummins badge, if you choose the big diesel engine. Since it can be made to bellow black smoke when you floor it, it is a VERY appropriate motor, in my opinion. Sadly, the Black Express package is not available on duallies. 

As an added bonus, if you do most of your driving at night, you can blend into your surroundings… Unless there is snow outside.
