Pros & cons

PROS

Extreme styling, amazing road presence, storming performance

CONS

Astronomical running costs, too big for UK roads, unsophisticated and unrefined, left-hand drive only

Overview

While the Americans love pick-ups trucks, in the UK they still tend to be the preserve of small businesses and tradesmen. The Ram is an extreme pick-up that’s enormous and too big for UK roads making it difficult to manoeuvre in town and almost impossible to park in standard parking spaces.

This SRT-10 is the high-performance version powered by a huge 8.3-litre engine with 500bhp, which gives it storming performance, despite the woeful four-speed automatic gearbox and awful handling.

But in reality the SRT-10 is a pointless vehicle that’s out of place on UK roads.
