Deep rubber floor mats are embossed with gray Ram's head logos.

The Ram 1500 Rebel Mojave Sand limited edition is available in Rebel configurations and options. The Ram 1500 Rebel Mojave Sand starting MSRP is $45,590 plus $1,320 destination. Mojave Sand production is limited to 1,500 units, which will start arriving in dealerships in December 2016.

Ram will also reintroduce a limited run of Ram 1500 Ignition Orange Sport models.

In addition to their vivid monochromatic exterior hue with body-color grille, 2017 Ram 1500 Ignition Orange models feature a Sport performance hood with black decals, black Ram's head grille badge, black tailgate badge and black body-side badges.

Interior treatments for the Ignition Orange Sport include "Copperhead" accent stitching throughout the cabin, Sport embroidery on the seats, accent-color Ram's head embroidery on the headrests and colored-accent sport mesh on the seat inserts. Anodized Orange-painted spears and trim rings complete the interior.

Only 1,500 units of the bright-orange 2017 Ram 1500 Sports will be produced.

The Ram 1500 Ignition Orange Sport package is limited to Crew Cab V-8 models with a starting MSRP of $43,740 plus $1,320 destination. The trucks are arriving in dealerships now.
