The wait is over! The Keys to Ride Truck Build has officially kicked off, and we’ve got a great lineup ready to accessorize it with. Our 2025 Ram 2500 has arrived, and it’s already turning heads before the real transformation even begins. This build isn’t about flash, it’s about function, durability, and real-world performance.
We’re partnering with Lippert™ to turn this Ram 2500 into the ultimate ranch workhorse. Every upgrade on this truck is being selected with purpose, focusing on strength, reliability, and the kind of capability that holds up day in and day out on the ranch, the jobsite, or anywhere tough work needs to get done.
Built for Real Work
A ranch truck doesn’t get days off, and neither should its equipment. That’s why the first featured products in this build are all about protection and power where it matters most.
Ranch Hand Bumper and Winch Plate
Ranch work is hard on trucks, especially up front. That’s why this build starts with protection and recovery you can count on.
The Ranch Hand Midnight bumper is a full front-end replacement made from 3/16” steel, offering solid protection without unnecessary bulk. Its tight, form-fitting design keeps the front end clean and out of the way, making it ideal for rough terrain, tight gates, and everyday ranch use. At around 210 lbs, it strikes a balance between strength and weight, providing the Ram 2500 with durability without overloading the front end. The bumper also allows for added lighting and configurable protection, making it easy to adapt for early mornings, late nights, and changing work conditions.
Paired with it is the Midnight Series winch mounting plate, built for recovery when getting unstuck isn’t optional. It mounts directly to the frame and bumper, creating a reinforced pull point rated for 16,500 lbs. straight-line pull. The winch plate remains hidden behind the bumper, providing a clean look while protecting the winch from the elements. Finished with corrosion-resistant coatings, it’s designed to hold up through mud, weather, and long workdays.
Together, the Midnight bumper and winch plate give this Ram 2500 dependable front-end protection and recovery capability, built for the tough situations ranch life brings.
Just Getting Started
This is only the beginning. Over the coming months, we’ll continue adding carefully selected accessories that enhance performance, safety, and everyday usability. Each upgrade brings us one step closer to a truck that’s built to work tough.
Stay tuned as the 2026 Keys to Ride Truck Build continues to take shape. This Ram 2500 is on its way to becoming a true ranch-ready machine, and we’re excited to bring you along for every step of the build.
