Militem reveals £170,000 Dodge-based super truck

An Italian tuning house has launched a £170,000, 700PS super truck based on the Dodge Ram 1500 TRX – itself a high-performance monster.

The Militem Magnum 700 is the UK’s most expensive double cab pick-up, but then that’s hardly surprising as it is hand-finished inside and out. It features a garish two-tone leather interior and a bespoke grille, wheelarch and bonnet design, with massive 22-inch alloy wheels.

Under the bonnet the Militem uses a supercharged version of Dodge’s Hemi V8, delivering 700bhp and 884Nm of torque, giving it a 0-60mph time of just 4.5 seconds, with an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The extra power is kept in check with a modified suspension set-up, with adaptive Bilstein dampers. The ride height is also raised – presumably for extra presence – giving greater ground clearance and a fording depth of up to 80cm.

What is the most reliable pickup truck to buy?

We would suggest looking at the Toyota Hilux and Isuzu D-Max if reliability is the most important factor. These brands achieved the highest MoT pass rate for their first test at three years old. Also you could look at the Volkswagen Amarok, which had the highest MoT pass rate for an individual model.
