How many Dodge Midnight Express trucks were made?

I just got a Dodge Ram and I was talking to my mechanic about some historic Dodge models and she mentioned that the Dodge Midnight Express truck is one of the rarest. How many Dodge Midnight Express trucks were made?

Congrats on your new pickup! Looking into a car brand’s history is always fascinating.
Only about 200 Dodge Midnight Express trucks were ever made. So your mechanic is absolutely right—the 1978 Dodge Midnight Express is one of the rarest Dodge trucks to ever be produced.
Here are a few more fun facts about this historic vehicle:
  • Officially, it’s spelled the “Midnite Express”—”Midnite Express Truck” is actually stamped on its driver’s door
  • It was only produced in 1978
  • A gigantic 440 cubic inch V8 engine capable of 245 horsepower sits under its hood
  • Like the equally iconic (but less rare) “Li’l Red Express,” the Midnite Express was part of Dodge’s “Adult Toys From Dodge” series
  • Most of the 200 units produced were made at the Grand Spaulding Dodge facility in
    Chicago
  • Today, there are more replica Midnite Express trucks on the road than originals
Learning more about the Dodge brand may give you even more appreciation for your truck and its own moving parts. It’s important to protect such a valuable investment with quality car insurance—
