After a rather successful foray with a Red Wings edition of the Ram 1500 last year – some 3,000 units sold – the truck brand is both re-upping its relationship with Detroit’s hockey powerhouse and considering expansion into other sport franchises.

Ram announced last month that it would carry on its partnership with the Red Wings throughout the 2012-13 NHL season. The company will not offer a special edition version of the 2013 Ram, due in part to the strike-shortened NHL season. In a recent interview with Bloomberg, Ram boss Fred Diaz called the Red Wings partnership an experiment that “worked out so incredibly well, we’re looking at the possibility of doing other things with other sports.”

Diaz doesn’t see Ram doing deals with entire leagues, but does think that other teams and cities, with a similar “rabid fan base” could make sense for co-branding. “We’ll pick our spots and our moments, ” said Diaz, “and if we feel like we have a good opportunity, we’ll do it.”
