What makes the Ram 1500 Stinger Yellow Sport special

The Ram 1500 has been around in its current configuration for a few years now, so its no wonder FCA brass is adding life to the pickup with a special edition. The Stinger Yellow package also competes with General Motors’ long list of special editions for the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups.

The Ram makes a solid case for itself thanks to its sporty nature, competitive asking price, and Hemi V-8. The engine is perhaps the most attractive aspect of the Ram – at least in terms of making it feel like a muscle truck. It generates 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque and makes all the right noises thanks to dual exhaust system that comes standard on the Ram 1500 Sport.
