This past week, we discussed how the first batch of the fourth installment of the Ram 1500 Big Horn “Built to Serve” Edition pickups were finally arriving in dealer showrooms. This morning, the RAM brand has announced that it is now launching its fifth and final installment of the limited edition series.
Based on the 2021 Ram 1500 Big Horn 4×4, the “Built to Serve Edition” pickups celebrate America’s five land, sea, and air-based armed forces. Each of the five United States military service branches has been or will be honored by RAM with two specially selected exterior paint colors that evoke the spirit, the mission, and the history of that service. Each of the brand’s “Built to Serve Edition” models are being offered in a new low-volume paint option exclusive to this program.
The five installments have included the following…
ARMY –
The first installment released in 2020, was inspired by those who protect and defend on land. The interior came custom with contrasting graystone seat fabric and light front interior stitching. Customers could choose from 1,000 Diamond Black units (SOLD OUT) or 1,000 Gator-colored units (SOLD OUT).

The second installment also released in 2020, featured 1,000 units of Ceramic Gray (SOLD OUT) and 1,000 units of Patriot Blue inspired by those who help keep us safe on the seas. The interior came custom with contrasting blue seat fabric and light ambassador blue interior stitching.
AIR FORCE –
