a

 

Many people seem to be under the impression that the Ram 1500 can’t get any better than it already is, and continues to be. That changed with the re-design in the 2019 model year, and Ram continues to explore new ways that they can fully incorporate the legacy of the truck in future models. After the Ram 1500 Classic was announced, it seemed only natural that Ram played off of that success, and now they have announced the Ram 1500 Classic Warlock! This pickup truck builds off of the Classic model, and adds a unique style and spirit that any Ram fan can appreciate. Not only does it pay tribute to the history that Warlock has had when it was under the Dodge name, but it offers a nice twist that will get everyone excited. Keep reading down below to learn more about the history of Warlock, and what this edition brings to the table!

 

What is the history of Warlock?

 

The history of Warlock dates back to 1976, when the Dodge Warlock was first put into production. This pickup truck was created thanks to the positive response it received as a concept vehicle at an auto show. You could personalize the Warlock from the factory, and many people claimed that it could “play as hard as it works”. Some of the stand out features included special gold accent stripes, chrome-plated running boards, real oak sideboards, bucket seats, and fancy wheels. The production of the Dodge Warlock lasted three years, as it ended in 1979. It made a lasting impact on the truck market, and the history of Ram.

 

What features come with the Warlock edition?

 

To make the Warlock edition stand on its own, and away from the regular Classic configuration, Ram has made sure to add unique features. You’ll be getting Warlock decals on the bedsides, 20-inch semi-gloss black aluminum wheels, LED rear tail lamps, heavy-duty rear shocks, a black grille with R-A-M lettering, tow hooks, an available Sport hood, front and rear powder coated bumpers, LED fog lamps, a 1-inch factory lift, black badging, unique hood decals, black wheel flares, and projector headlamps with dark bezels. Further features include a leather-wrapped steering wheel, Diesel Grey cloth seating, LED bed lighting, ParkSense rear park assist, an overhead console, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, power foldaway mirrors, and a 7-inch cluster display.

 

What are the engine options?

 

Two engine options are offered with the Warlock. One of these is the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, which can pump out up to 269 pound-feet of torque and 305 horsepower. The other engine is a 5.7-liter HEMI V8, which cranks out 410 pound-feet of torque and 395 horsepower. Both engines get an eight-speed automatic transmission, along with the choice of 4x2 or 4x4, and either a Quad Cab or a Crew Cab.
