It's photoshopped. You can tell because the rear door does not have a seam like the front door. Also, the roof line right behind the clearance lights...But for a Dodge...it looks great! Can you say Dodge Excursion

I always wondered why Dodge never cashed in on the mega-SUV craze a few years back.

Just imagine how populer a Dodge huge-ute with a Cummins would have been for a tow rig/family hauler!

They still made the Ramcharger up to 2000 but only in Mexico.

Looks like somebody photochopped a Suburban roof, back doors, and side windows onto a Dodge pickup.

Me too. I tried to find an Excursion a few years back with a diesel to buy and it was slim pickings at best. I wouldn't want one with a 5.4 or 6.8 because the mileage would be horrible.

I'm thinking Dodge would have given Ford a good run for their money if they brought something like this out when the Excursion was still being built.

NOPE!
Thats a full sized Ram 1500 Ramcharger! Do a search for it and see for yourself. The design was not safe for the US market. And yes, there are a few in South Texas @ Houston. Thats where that photo was taken. I personally can not confirm this , so don't hold it against me.
