Both the R/T and SRT8 will offer an optional six-speed TREMEC manual transmission. Production of the 2009 models is set to start early, in June of 2008.
TheSpecs. The most-popular Ram 1500 engine should continue to be the Hemi. The 5.7-liter V8 gets "next-generation" massaging which results in 390 hp, a 13 percent increase over 2008's 345 hp
