Ram is bringing new, special-edition Night packages for Ram 2500 and 3500 HD pickups to the 2017 Chicago Auto Show.
The new Night editions further expand the Ram factory-custom truck family from the 1/2-ton Ram 1500 announced in September 2016 to the brand’s ¾-quarter and 1-ton models.
Based on the monochromatic Sport appearance package, Night adds blacked-out features, including wheels, grille surround, and badging.
Production of the 2017 Ram HD Night models began early February 2017. Ram Heavy Duty Night pricing starts at $45,520, plus $1,320 destination.

Black 2500/3500 and powertrain-specific badging, black lighting bezels and black grill surround define the Night look. Also included are black-bezel headlamps, body-color-painted steel front and rear bumpers, 20 x 8-inch black-painted aluminum wheels and LT285/60R20E outlined-white letter on/off road tires. Black rectangular running boards also are available.

Ram Heavy Duty pickups are designed to work hard and deliver an amazing 31,210 pounds of towing capability. The 6.7L Cummins High-Output Turbo Diesel produces 385 hp and 900 lb.-ft. of torque. The Ram 2500 holds the ¾-ton gas-powered towing title with 16,320 pounds of capacity.
