Dodge Ram

The Ram Pickup (previously Dodge Ram) is a full-size pickup truck made by Chrysler. They used to be made by Dodge.

The name Ram was first used in 1981 on the redesigned Dodge trucks. These trucks are named for a ram hood ornament.

Mexico

Unencumbered by CAFE (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) restrictions, DaimlerChrysler's Mexican subsidiary developed a three-door SUV version of the Ram, called the Ramcharger as was its predecessor. It debuted in 1998, but was never available in the United States.^[1]

There were also medium-duty Ram trucks that were only manufactured and marketed in Mexico.^[2] Built in the Saltillo Plant from 1994 until 1998, the medium-duty Dodge Ram 6500 and 7000 had a grille almost twice as tall as the original, and sizable filler plates beneath the headlights to accommodate the much taller chassis and engine. The Dodge Ram 6500/7000 chassis cab was offered in both Regular Cab and Crew Cab configurations. The Regular Cab seats up to three passengers, while the Crew Cab offers two rows of seating and can have up to six people. The cab choice impacts the truck's overall length and bed size options. The range included a 3500 and 4000 with the 5.9-liter V8 with 245 hp (183 kW) at 4,000 rpm and a four-speed manual transmission; these look quite similar to the US version, albeit on a heftier chassis.^[3] Payloads are 3,041 and 3,274 kg (6,704 and 7,218 lb) respectively.^[4] The much larger 6500 and 7000 have a bigger engine, available to run on LPG.
