Most vehicles have an inertia switch fuel cut-off, but I don't believe Dodge does as they are cheaper.
If your engine turns over but doesn't start, I would check to see if you are getting power to your fuel pump and have gas in the tank(incase of any fuel leaks or non working gas guage)
Start there.

You may want to double check the fuses. If the truck is an automatic, make sure the big white plastic plug on the side of the transmission (driver's side, I think--30 pins or so in it) is still plugged in. It should be fine, but you never can tell.
