Miranda Lambert helped raise nearly $66,000 for her animal rescue operation, the MuttNation Foundation, recently by auctioning off items including a customized Ram Laramie Longhorn truck, which went for $54,901. Other items, which brought in nearly $11,000, included signed copies of Lambert’s Platinum CD, signed guitars and tickets to one of Miranda Lambert’s concerts in 2015, including a pre-show cocktail with her.
The auction is just one step in an ongoing relationship between Lambert and Ram Trucks that will continue to grow in 2015.
