The BFT Concept was the brainchild of famed designer Scott Krugger, who designed the exterior of the 2013 SRT Viper and is now Head of Dodge Exterior Design, and Mark Allen, who is the Head of Design for Jeep®. The trucks also featured a carryover performance hood with air intake from the 2006 Ram SRT-10. Like the 2023 Ram Heavy Duty models, the BFT Concept also featured telescoping mirrors.

The Cummins was mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. But it is for sure higher than the Cummins stock numbers of 325 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. Unfortunately, Ram never released the Banks-enhanced Cummins official power ratings. Under the hood, is a 6.7-liter Cummins turbodiesel inline-six engine modified by Banks Power. The BFT Concept also features a set of massive 22.5-inch Alcoa 10-lug semi-truck wheels, to help enhance the truck’s big rig looks. Talk about a commanding driving position on the highway. To help offset the truck’s bold tough f^&*’n looks, the design team equipped the truck with a 6-inch suspension lift kit from Superlift. The added length of the box allows for added storage in the box even if a fifth-wheel trailer was attached. This allowed the Mopar Underground team to create a custom 10-foot dually box setup for the truck. Instead of putting a spacious Crew Cab configuration on the chassis, the Auburn Hills design studio fitted the truck with a Regular Cab instead. (Mopar).īFT? Yes, it stands for “Big F^&*’n Truck”! Designed to be the ultimate workhorse pickup, the Ram BFT Concept started life as a 20 Chassis Cab with a 160-inch wheelbase. But only one captured an attitude as well as function: the 20 BFT Concept. Over the years, Ram produced a number of Heavy Duty long-hauling concept trucks.
