Since launching the TRX off-road hot rod for 2021, Ram has kept up a steady cadence of special-edition 1500 light-duty pickup trucks Launch, Red, Sandblast, Limited Elite, the list goes on.
Next in line is the new Lunar Edition, and following the established pattern, it’s really just a unique colour scheme. This time, it’s not just the TRX getting the special treatment; Ram is also applying it to the 1500 Rebel, so buyers without TRX coins can get in on the fun.
Both trucks come in a ceramic gray paint and wear their respective Rebel or TRX bed and hood graphics and black badging, bumpers and wheels. The TRX does away with the model’s standard lower-body cladding, showing off the custom hue all the way down to the rockers and adding black 18-inch beadlock-capable wheels, a panoramic moonroof, bedliner, cargo tie-downs and a bed step.
The Ram TRX still kicking strong and there’s a new special edition out for both it and the regular 1500 Rebel. Called the Lunar special editions, this moon-themed package gets you a new Ceramic Gray paint and more customization. These editions also come essentially fully loaded so they won’t be cheap.
Under the hood is the legendary hellcat 6.2L Supercharged V8 making that magic 707HP and 650 lb-ft of torque sent through an 8-speed gearbox to a heavy-duty 4WD system, beefy control arms, shocks, suspension and a towing package that can tow around 8,100lbs. 0-60 happens in 4.5sec, 0-100 in 10.5sec and the 1/4mile in 12.9sec. It weighs 6,350 lbs.
The Rebel Lunar edition gets a 5.7L HEMI V8 making 395HP through an 8-speed gearbox.
The 1500 Rebel Lunar Edition starts at $70,310, plus a $1,895 destination fee. The 1500 TRX requires the same destination fee on top of a HUGE price tag of $106,445. Though for the extra money, it really isn’t that special of a package. One other minor addition on the TRX Lunar is Surf Blue accent stitching inside with a carbon fibre package, 18in beadlock capable wheels, a panoramic roof, and more.
