Answering the question of whether Mopar’s Ram Power Wagon<\/a> concept is meant to be a competitor to the awe-inspiring Ford SVT Raptor<\/a> (that’d be a ‘no,’ it would seem) is a report courtesy of our friends at PickupTrucks.com that Chrysler<\/a>‘s go-fast division is also planning to release a long-travel version of the Ram 1500<\/a> at the Easter Jeep Safari<\/a> in Moab, Utah.<\/p>\n

Adding credibility to Mopar’s off-road-ready Ram “research project” is the presence of veteran Baja racer Kent Kroeker, who’s KORE<\/a> company is already the go-to expert for aftermarket Dodge truck goodies (see photo above of his Ram 2500 <\/a>racer). Being based on the Ram 1500 means that Chrysler’s Raptor-fighter will feature independent suspension at all four corners. We should also expect plenty of suspension travel. Oh, and could this be a hint<\/a> at the future?<\/p>\n

While it’s not necessarily expected that the Ram brand will offer such a high-lift, long-travel model in dealerships right off the factory floor, there is a decent chance that the components developed for this concept could end up in a Mopar accessory or KORE catalog (or both?) sometime soon. And you can count us firmly among those looking forward to that.<\/p>\n
