Looks like YOU are also. ;)- The lawsuit is for/on the Cummins/FCA Cummins diesel engine Dodge Ram and the Ram Cummins diesel engine trucks. Therefore, that is what it's all about even if "Wild Card" doesn't get it!
This particular lawsuit is not on the other FCA or Dodge Ram or Dodge gas engine or the VMI diesel engine trucks as they have their own lawsuits or issues to deal with. - Really...this is what you people have to talk about...is it Ram or Dodge Ram.

It seems Dodge even acknowledges that RAM is one of their vehicles. It's on their website, on a page titled "All Dodge Vehicles".
I still don't get the attempt to disassociate from the Dodge name. It's a good name in automotive history. I don't think anyone would disagree with the statement "Without Dodge, there would be no RAM truck".
Calling them a Dodge RAM is only paying tribute to their lineage, and in my opinion which I freely admit ain't worth squat, it's also calling them what they are.
:):)
I don't think they were trying to disassociate but to create a new brand/division. Remember this is the time period where the possibility of carving out and selling the Jeep and trucks for cash was a real possibility.gmcsmoke wrote:

Starting in 2013 it's "RAM".
oh, then this class action must be against a different truck company since peppered throughout their filed complaint they reference these dodge RAMs.
Based on class counsel’s investigation, in consultation with
automobile emissions experts, the specific dispute in the FCA Litigation is in fact
only part of a larger defect (referred to herein as the “Defect”). Model year 2013–
2017 Dodge Ram trucks (2500s and 3500s) with a Cummins 6.7-liter diesel engine
(the “Vehicles”) have an SCR system that breaks down, emits emissions in excess
of federal and California standards, and has a diesel particulate filter (DPF) that
They can say what they want, I am just stating fact that it is RAM and no longer Dodge as of 2013. Really don't care about this topic just commented on the name.
