I saw on the news Chrysler and GM are not going to close all the dealers there were going to close.

I don't think you have to worry with the Ram. My best educated guess is that Fiat will keep the Dodge name and designs with benchmark vehicles such as the ram. They may discontinue or rename the smaller more fuel efficient vehicles that Chrysler currently makes. As long as the market supports the demand for trucks, and Dodge stays competitive in the market, there is no need for concern. Their number 1 goal is still profit driven.

I believe the Ram is their best-selling vehicle. It continues to be extremely popular.

I think they'll be around for awhile. Shoot, I read the other day where they have changed their minds and are even going to continue building the Viper.

Not around here, dealer was closed by the new Chrysler so everyone around here is left with no service, driving vehicles that Chrysler says is not covered on any liability issues by them,we belong to the old Chrysler that went out of business, I am sure our loyalty at trade in time will match theirs

I hope Dodge is here to stay. If you want to see a grown man cry, well..... I don't even want to think about it, lol.
