2008 Dodge Ram. Ideas for this model? Plan to make a police version and tow version.

yeeeessss. Lovin this truck revolution. It would be the first dually police vehicle iv ever seen but i will use it all the time. Thank u

I think an SADOT type car would be cool, with the utility boxes in the back.

That Dodge is beautiful.

Seeing that it is a dually, it should definitely be a sheriff's vehicle. Perhaps an optional wraparound pushbar would fit it nicely?

As for lighting, I'm not sure what you have access to, but I'm thinking either a Code 3 RX2700 or a newer Whelen Liberty (not the II), with a row of pushbar lights (a 6-8 Whelen Dominator stick or a bunch of TIR3's or ION's), with surface mounted modules like the Whelen 400 series or just TIR3's or ION's on the trunk, would look great for the police version. The RX2700 in amber would be ideal for the tow truck version as well.

this is only law enforcement / EMS dodge 3500 i could find, theres not much use for a 3500 in law enforcement, unless your towing a decent size trailer. Maybe throw a fifth wheel on there and make a command center trailer for it, but honestly not much use for a dually other than that.

I've seen one as a sheriff. There are tons of vehicles I've seen that aren't typical police vehicles that are. I am going to make an ambulave version and tow.

I like Stelebs idea of a LAFD Ambulance, it's the perfect vehicle for the role.

Oh... Well, um... spoiler alert 

West Valley Designs is already in the process of making one, but a flatbed dodge would make a very nice LA style tow truck.

Also just as a FYI finding a code 3 rx2700 that you can actually get permission for is nearly impossible.(Hilth0 is inactive so you most likely can't get permission and according to the community staff you still need permission)

I own a Dodge/RAM 3500, if you need any pictures. It's got a 12 foot extended bed and cab well. :)

Good luck, looking forward to seeing this!

I believe its 12 feet, but I could be off I suppose.

I plan to make one once I get this base model done and ready

I would use that ram for a SWAT personal truck, something like this

Maybe you could do something like this

i've seen these being used by the local RCMP as forensic vehicles. The canopy could be an extra (don't know if possible to have a extra that big)

and if you decide to put a canopy of any type on it here are some reference photos

FEAST YOUR EYES.

 

In the mountainous terrain, sometimes travel is difficult for law enforcement. Crown Victorias and other police vehicles, can get stuck. But now, Dodge is putting one of its toughest trucks to the test. Welcome the sheriff Dodge Ram 3500.

I didn't think it was possible but I'm even more excited for this truck now, it looks amazing, awesome work dude. 

I'd love to see an animal control version for this and even a park ranger version. Model looks great man.
