Default RE: DODGE CHALLENGER SRT 10 CONCEPT!

Uhm , what ?

The first SRT-10 was produced in January 2004.[citation needed] Ram SRT-10 production ended on June 30, 2006.[citation needed] Final production numbers are not yet[when?] available.

In the wake of severe market underperformance, production of the SRT-10 was halted by DaimlerChrysler far in advance of its original schedule.[citation needed] It is generally assumed[weasel words] that the reason the trucks sold so poorly was low consumer demand for vehicles with poor gas mileage in an environment of rising gas prices.[1] According to the window sticker, the mpg on the Ram SRT-10 is 9 city and 12 highway. As of August 8, 2006, it was common for new SRT-10s to be selling from a dealer's lot for as little as $48,000.[citation needed] Through 2005, around 4,500 Ram SRT-10s have been sold.[1]

The total production for the 2004 Dodge Ram SRT-10 was 3,057. For 2005, the total production was 4,027 and the 2006 total production was 1,973.[citation needed] Due to the short 3 year lifespan of this truck, just over 9,000 Dodge Ram SRT-10s were manufactured. Compared to the 35,000 Ford Lightnings produced over a 9 year lifespan, the Dodge Ram SRT-10 is truly a limited edition truck.
