The "truck" in the picture appers to be a Dodge Ram SUV. I think it looks pretty kick butt. Guess it might be a custom thing.

That was custom built by one of the crew cab conversion companies. I remember seeing that and thought it looked good and kind of wondered why Dodge never made one. I can't remember the company that did it.

That looks like a "suburban" type Dodge.

It would have to be a custom job (or possibly a South Of The Border model) as I've never known Dodge to offer a 2nd Gen full-sized SUV in the US.

Looks to be rather old as well.

2nd gen grill, pre 2000 mirrors (or whatever year they switched to plastic)

I'd almost be willing to say that's a 96-98 body there.

I saw a 2nd-gen, 2-door Ram Charger in Albuquerque a couple of years ago with Sonoran plates. Made me do a double-take, looked just like a big 2-door Durango. Here's a pict of one:

I worked at Fred Oakely Dodge in Irving on 183 in 95 and 96 as a front end tech. We had two of them one black and one siver. Both were 4x4 with a 360 in them. I can't for the life of me remeber who did it. Rumor at the time was they were the pre cusor to what the Durango became.
