So they take a Fiat van and call it a Ram. I guess that’s fine since they have to replace the Sprinter, but they didn’t call a Sprinter a Ram. It sounds like they want more of a commercial, utilitarian line for Ram. I think this is a mistake for the U.S. market. It seems they are not worried about the Ram/Cummins combo toughness reputation. I was stationed in Germany for 2 years and traveled to 13 different countries while there. If they are planning on bringing that type of van and truck here to the U.S. I feel the Ram brand will be lost. We may have the last of a great line of trucks.
