Dodge has announced pricing for the 2008 Dodge Ram 4500 and 5500 chassis cabs, with a U.S. Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the 2008 Dodge Ram 4500 set at $34,050 and base price for the 2008

Dodge Ram 5500 at $36,050.
Both include a destination charge of $900. Dodge's latest heavy-duty work trucks go on sale this fall.
Michael Accavitti, director of Dodge Brand & SRT Marketing and Communications, said, "Filling a white space opportunity for the brand, these 'big-rig' trucks not only get the job done, but also offer more power, versatility and capability to the commercial customer looking for a tough, heavyweight work truck."
