Getrag 238 manual transmission option
Some 3rd generation Rams were offered with the same Getrag 238 manual transmission package as was offered in the Dakota, when equipped with the 3.7L V6 and / or 4.7L V8 engines. These transmissions replaced the NV3500 when the GM / Chrysler joint venture called 'New Venture Gear' ended. Applicable model years are 2005-2006. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.46.22.101 (talk) 12:52, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Move to Ram (automobile)?
As is detailed in the Ram Trucks article, Chrysler no longer uses the Dodge brand for Ram trucks. It's created a new make called Ram Trucks, which includes the Ram trucks (1500, 2500 and 3500, as described in this article), two vans and a chassis cab truck.

This article is about the Ram line of pickup trucks, so I believe it should be moved to Ram (automobile). Thoughts? Objections? Jesuschex (talk) 18:57, 14 August 2013 (UTC)

Agree
It only makes sense to move the article since the title of the article no longer corresponds with the name of the vehicle.Num1dgen (talk) 18:53, 17 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Disagree - the Dodge Ram was used for a lot longer.  Mr.choppers &#124;   ✎  00:34, 16 March 2014 (UTC)


 * I also disagree as the new makes started at a year model. There is no reason not to have seperate pages, one for historical vehicals which are not renamed, and are properly refered to as Dodge Trucks; and one for Ram Trucks which is a new product line that only has similarities with the old brand. ~AeSix 66.86.14.225 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 20:13, 28 January 2015 (UTC)


 * It should definitely be moved to Ram (automobile) in my opinion, as the brand move is an essential part of the vehicle's history. But if I may add, the 2009 model rams were Dodges, so it really doesn't make sense to split the pages. -- Molandfreak  (talk,   contribs,  email) 04:01, 5 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Comment: Move to Ram pickup; the "P" should not be capitalized. – Illegitimate Barrister (talk • contribs), 00:47, 2 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Disagree - For a long time, vans have also been considered more similar to trucks than "automobiles", a.k.a. cars. Ram since it was split off from Dodge does not make cars.  32.212.102.239 (talk) 05:48, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

RAM Trucks Australia - misleading content re: which generation RAM trucks are imported.
There is a mixture of 4th (Classic) and 5th Gen RAM 1500's. Usually, the way to tell which-is-which is to check the radiator grille design, but some importers are swapping them so it is somewhat misleading.

As such, the article is a little inaccurate as it states that Ateco group import 5th Gen RAM 1500's but based on my discussions with their dealers, they actually import the Classic. There was word that there are other importers bringing in the new 5th Gen RAM 1500's and making them look like the classics.

I run an exhaust import business, hence why I have this level of knowledge. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mglew (talk • contribs) 22:22, 9 February 2021 (UTC)


 * "There was word..." Is there any documentable proof of this, and if so, and can be verified, it could be added to the article.  Either here, or on the 5th gen page at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ram_Pickup_(fifth_generation).  32.212.102.239 (talk) 05:51, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Production years
Should the "special edition" section for the 2019 Warlock be edited to include the fact that, as of the 2021 model year, this model line is still currently in production? 32.212.102.239 (talk) 06:00, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Probably not, as it appears in the third-generation section so the fourth-generation's Warlock model shouldn't be included there. --Sable232 (talk) 21:46, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

Article name
Hello! So I'm just a bit curious, is there any possible way to rename the article to something other than "Ram pickup"? I'm asking because technically there is no Ram truck with the model name of "pickup". It's technically the Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500. So maybe something like Ram x500 series? If not then I would assume "Ram pickup" is just the best name for it. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 20:44, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * That is why it's "Ram pickup" and not "Ram Pickup" - pickup is a descriptive term and not the actual name. Since Chrysler/Stellantis have used myriad names for this family of vehicles, "Ram pickup" was chosen back in 2014 and so far no one has come up with a better name.
