There will only be 1,000 2021 “Built to Serve” Ram 1500 trucks in each color. “Ram continues to honor all of those who serve or have served in the United States armed forces with distinction through our latest ‘Built to Serve’ offering,” said Mike Koval Jr., Head of Ram Brand, FCA – North America. “The ‘Built to Serve’ adage is something Ram Truck owners, whether civilian or military, are very familiar with as it’s something we strive to build into every truck and van that we produce.”

Ram will honor all five branches of the military with a different branch edition every three months. As the Air Force has an anniversary tomorrow it was first up. Other colors to choose will be Gator or Diamond Black, Ceramic Gray or Patriot Blue, and Tank or Flame Red. Each of those will be 1,000 limited editions each. There will also be 500 each of either Spitfire or Bright White.
