The Ram 1500 carries a legacy of strength and innovation that dates back to 1981, when the "Ram" nameplate was first officially designated for Dodge pickup trucks. In 1994, the second-generation models revolutionized the segment with "big-rig" styling, a design choice that shifted the perception of pickups from strictly utilitarian tools to versatile daily drivers.
