A recent photo shoot for the 2014 Ram Power Wagon ended badly when the prototype truck was lost at sea.

One witness (who also took these pictures) claims the Chrysler marketing team attempted to shoot the Ram on a beach near Trinidad, California. However, the pickup became lodged on the escarpment and got swallowed by the high tide.

“During a photo shoot, a Ram truck was lodged on some rocks on a beach when the tide came in,” a company spokesman confirmed. “The EPA inspected the vehicle and confirmed there was not any leakage from the vehicle's fluid tanks.”
