Dodge Dealer Columbia SC has some great news for Columbia-area outdoor enthusiasts. Hunters, fishermen, campers and boaters of South Carolina will all love the latest edition to the Dodge family.

The 2011 Dodge Ram Outdoorsman features the most useful traits of the outdoor lifestyle in one model: standard trailer-towing upgrades, interior and exterior lighting enhancements, all-terrain tires, and a rugged exterior appearance. Also, RamBox-equipped trucks have a “RamBox Holster” fishing rod and gun rack accessory option. Add in convenience, off-road capability and trailer towing hardware, and the Ram Outdoorsman is the perfect vehicle for any South Carolina resident looking to enjoy the great outdoors.

The idea for the 2011 Dodge Ram Outdoorsman was born simply from what Ram Heavy Duty owners illustrate: a passion for the outdoors. In fact, 62 percent of full-size pickup truck owners say they hunt, fish or camp. Of the Dodge Ram Heavy Duty owners surveyed, 47 percent say they hunt, 57 percent fresh water fish, 33 percent salt water fish, 36 percent own power boats, and 37 percent tow camping trailers.

The overall design of the Ram Outdoorsman was also a passion project within the Dodge family. Ram Truck engineers – many of whom also count hunting, fishing, boating and camping among their hobbies – brought together features they felt would best meet the practical needs of Outdoorsman owners who will frequently travel on long, remote trips.

2011 Dodge Ram Outdoorsman Features

Specific features of the 2011 Dodge Ram Outdoorsman include:

* Standard Class IV receiver hitch for proper towing of campers, boats, ATVs and other trailers rated to vehicle’s max
* Available integrated trailer brake controller with driver adjustability and easy-to-see instrument panel readout
* Available rear backup camera to ease trailer hookups
* Tow hooks for retrieving disabled or immobile vehicles, clearing trails
* Power 10-way driver seat and lumbar adjust for comfort on long trips
* Rear 60 / 40 split folding seat for more flexibility in hauling passengers and cargo
* Remote start and security group adds alarm system and convenience of a comfortable cabin after a day in the field or on the water
* Standard fog lights and quad halogen headlamps for maximum visibility in remote areas
* Dash-mounted 115-volt auxiliary power outlet to charge batteries and electronic devices without the need for special DC car chargers
* Outdoorsman badge proudly announces owner’s passion
* RamBox (available on the Ram 1500), the ultimate place for outdoor enthusiasts to stow their gear; lockable and lit, RamBox frees up interior space for passengers

Perhaps the most novel of all the features in the 2011 Dodge Ram Outdoorsman is the Mopar RamBox Holster. Factory-designed to fit within the Ram’s two unique locked, lighted and sealed exterior storage bins, the Holster gently, yet securely cradles two rifles or shotguns, or can be rotated 90 degrees to hold up to six fishing rods. The RamBox Holster will have a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $205, and be available at Dodge dealers in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Officially unveiled recently at the Professional Outdoor Media Association’s (POMA) conference, the 2011 Dodge Ram Outdoorsman is sure to be a hit with any fan of the outdoors. Before you hit the trail, stop by Columbia Dodge dealer, Dodgeland of Columbia, to learn more about this rugged vehicle.

2011 Dodge Durango News from South Carolina Dodge Dealer

The images suggest the newest Durango will add a great deal of refinement to its reputation for power and performance.  Graceful rounded edges define the new look, with those curves evident in the styling of the body, headlights and taillights.  Meanwhile, upscale chrome accents adorn the grill as well as the nameplate on the Durango’s back.

Inside, the refined touches continue with simple, attractive, chrome-rimmed gauges set off from this vehicle’s dark interior.

Anticipation of the third generation of Durango had been steadily building for months prior to the sneak preview from Dodge.  While the rumors of a completely new look have proven to be true, that anticipation will only continue to grow until drivers see all of the 2011 Dodge Durango in the coming weeks and months.

Dodgeland of Columbia, a leading South Carolina Dodge dealer, will share all the latest news on the new Durango as it becomes available.
