When was the last time Dodge made a truck?


Background: the Dodge-to-Ram branding shift




  • The Ram brand was separated from Dodge as part of Chrysler’s broader restructuring and relaunch efforts in the late 2000s.

  • For the 2010 model year, pickup trucks marketed in the United States were branded as RAM rather than DODGE.

  • From 2011 onward, Ram Trucks continued the pickup line under the standalone RAM brand, while Dodge focused on other vehicle segments.



Last Dodge-branded pickups




  • 2009 Dodge Ram 1500

  • 2009 Dodge Ram 2500

  • 2009 Dodge Ram 3500



Ram as the standalone pickup brand




  • 2010 model year: Ram 1500 introduced as the flagship light-duty pickup under the Ram brand.

  • Heavy-duty variants (Ram 2500, Ram 3500) were continued and rebranded under Ram as well.

  • Throughout the 2010s and into the 2020s, Ram continued to expand and refresh its lineup, while Dodge did not re-enter the full-size pickup market.
