Chrysler’s Dodge Ram Mega Cab is said to feature optional 8-foot beds in its availability in 2010. The said humongous foot box will provide more space for the fifth-wheel trailer—a feature that could be of extreme use and service when the unit is faced with tight and difficult turns.

The Mega Cab is said to boast off several features. Our sources said that fenders are stamped onto the sheet metal of the rear wheels of this particular Mega Cab unit. Like Chevrolet Silverado HD dually’s rear haunches, the fenders are not easily seen as they are camouflaged in the same color located over the rear wheels. However, notable changes in the cab’s suspension, power train and C-channel frames are said to have been of non-existence for the said Mega Cab Ram models. Both the 2010 Ram 2500 and 3500 units will still sport the same old features in the said automobile aspects.

Meanwhile, the 5.7 liter Hemi V-8 engine was said to have been upgraded to 383-horsepower/400 pound-feet of torque. Reports also said that the 2010 Ram 2500 will sport the gas-powered Hemi V-8 as its base engine. On the other hand, the diesel-fired 6.7 liter Cummin six-cylinder will be the base engine of the 2010 Ram 3500.

There are a lot of expectations from the Drift Dodge Challenger. The car is expected to perform with ultimate accuracy and speed. For example, the Challenger is expected to have around 850 hp and 849 lb-ft of torque, which comes from an all-aluminum engine. The Challenger is expected to weigh lighter than the Viper, with an estimated weight of 2,900 pounds.

The reason that the drift champion Hubinette is tied up with the launch of the Challenger is something not cataclysmic but more of historic. The concept of the Challenger was based on a carbon fiber shell which was utilized in one of the original Challenger ideas that was seen in the auto shows in 2006. After the shows, Chrysler realized there was little need of the material. There, they (Chrysler) decided to give one of their three pieces to the owner of Hubinette’s team, Shaun Carlson of the HuFormz Racing Team based in California, says Chrysler Vice President Ralph Gilles.

The Hubinette-Challenger tandem is more of a reunion, since the drift champion has had experience in driving the Dodge Charger sedan in the year 2007. Both the Charger and the Challenger are both made from the same LX platform. In a similar perspective, driving the Challenger would be something familiar for him.
