The latest in Ram’s special edition trucks are the most luxurious 2018 Ram 1500 and Ram HD dressed in the Limited Tungsten Edition. It’s no surprise that pickup trucks continue to get more luxurious. Many consumers love the capability and versatility of a pickup truck, but do not want to give up any creature comforts or luxury appointments in the process.

Think of the Tungsten package as an addition to the already premium Ram Limited model. Ram is proud of the Light Greystone suede headliner, which is a segment first. The Tungsten cabin is outfitted with what Ram calls ultra-premium “Natura Plus” Frost and Indigo-colored leather. You will find the new leather covering the door inserts, center armrest, steering wheel, parts of the dash, and the seats. Matching carpet with rubber floor mats and unique badging complete the look.

The exterior combines features of the Limited and Sport packages, and add Tungsten Chrome grille and body-colored bumpers, mirrors, door handles, and the “R A M” on the tailgate. The half-ton models get a Sport hood, all Tungsten trucks get the blacked our headlights. Painted Limited rims and special badging complete appearance.

The 2018 Ram 1500 and Ram 2500/3500 HD Tungsten models will be offered in the following colors: Bright Silver Metallic, Bright White, Brilliant Black Crystal, Delmonico Red Pearl, Granite Crystal Metallic, Maximum Steel Metallic (1500 only), Pearl White and True Blue Pearl.
