The Ram is a full-size pickup truck from Chrysler LLC's Dodge brand. The name was first used in 1981 on the redesigned Ram and Power Ram, though it came from the hood ornament used on 1930s and '40s Dodge vehicles.

Dodge Ram trucks have been named Motor Trend magazine's Truck of the Year twice: the second-generation Ram won the award in 1994, and the third-generation Ram Heavy Duty won the award in 2003.

The Ram is built at Saltillo Truck Assembly in Saltillo, Coahuila, Mexico; Saint Louis Assembly North in Fenton, Missouri; and Warren Truck Assembly in Warren, Michigan.

The fourth generation Dodge Ram was introduced at the 2008 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The 5.7 L HEMI V8's output has been increased by 35 hp (26 kW) to 380 hp (283 kW) and 404 lb·ft (548 N·m), and fuel efficiency has been slightly increased by 4%. The 4.7 L H.O PowerTech V8 produces 310 hp (231 kW) and 330 lb·ft (447 N·m), and the 3.7L PowerTech V6 continues with 215 hp (160 kW) and 235 lb·ft (319 N·m). A coil spring rear suspension replaces the leaf-springs, a move to improve ride quality and handling. The payload capacities have not been negatively affected despite the massive change in suspension. The Mega Cab option will be deleted, at least on the 1500 series, replaced by a true four door cab.

A photo of the new model was leaked through Dodge's own Mopar website in 2007. On Dodge's website, the interior photos of the vehicle ad depict a crafted interior with bucket seating in the front. As of now, it is unclear if this generation of the Ram will even be available with 6-passenger seating like other full-size crew cabs and extended cabs.
