Dodge Ramcharger
Sport Utility Vehicles have gained much popularity in the recent years, slowly
taking the largest part of the auto market. They are loved for their on-road and
off-road capabilities, practicality and tough look as well. Although highly popular
these days, SUVs have already been introduced in the market a long time ago. Dodge
made a large sport utility back in the 70s named Dodge Ramcharger. As a leader in the light and heavy duty trucks segment of the industry, there
is no doubt this SUV carried Dodge trucks' ram-like bold, powerful and rugged
nature.
Dodge Ramcharger was based on the shortened wheelbase version of the Dodge D-series
or Dodge Ram pickup truck chassis. This gave the Dodge Ramcharger a truck-like
handling, which may not be as comfortable as car-based SUVs, but on the other
hand, this gave the Dodge Ramcharger enough strength to carry extra amount of
loads and heavier cargoes than most SUVs, old and newer models alike. The Dodge
Ramcharger went into production for almost two decades, which goes to show its
users' confidence on its dependability. Most buyers of the Dodge Ramcharger perhaps
did not think of the Ramcharger's truck-like handling but rather its practical
and powerful features.
The first generation Dodge Ramcharger was produced from 1974 to 1981 while the
second generation came in 1982 and was sold through 1993. All shared the chassis
with the Trailduster, the Plymouth version of this Dodge SUV. However, upon introduction
of the second generation Dodge Ramcharger, the Plymouth Trailduster ended its
production. Dodge primarily introduced the Ramcharger as a two-door short bed
4X4 pickup truck with wagon style body. It was offered in four-wheel drive; however,
a two-wheel drive was available.
Ramcharger engines were big, perfectly matching its big size and heavy weight.
The Dodge Ramchargers may be smaller than full-size trucks but they worked as
hard as trucks bigger than their size. Among the Chrysler LA engines used by the
Dodge Ramcharger were the 5.2L, 5.9L and the big block RB 7.2L engine. With these
powerhouses, Dodge Ramcharger gave other SUVs at that time a tough competition.
