Positioned in the heart of the full-size pickup truck market, the Dodge Ram was designed for buyers who needed a big, durable pickup for work or play, but also in a modern aerodynamic package with styling flair. Prime competition came from the Ford F-Series, Chevrolet C/K and GMC Sierra full-size trucks.

Year-to-year changes[]

1991[]

There were four trim levels for the Dodge Ram 50: Short and Long Bed versions of both each the base and SE pickup trucks. In addition, there was also a 2-door SUV called the Ramcharger 150. Accompanying this car was a 150S.

1994[]

In 1994, the all-new Dodge Ram made an impressive debut, breaking styling rules left and right. The new design clearly set the Ram apart from the rest of the pack in the full-size pickup truck market.

The Dodge Ram was available in regular cab and extended cab (Club Cab) models in three series, 1/2-ton (1500), 3/4-ton (2500) and 1-ton (3500), in 2-wheel-drive and 4-wheel-drive versions. There were four trim levels: LT, Work Special, ST and Laramie SLT.

1995[]

In October 1994 for the 1995 model year, Dodge introduced a full line of Club Cab models, which added 20 inches to the Ram cab and held six passengers in a split 40/20/40 front bench seat and a full rear bench.

Other significant option changes this year included a V8 engine powered by compressed natural gas (CNG), 4-wheel antilock brakes for 1-ton models (late availability), revised sport package (also later in the year), and an upgraded sound system. Also new this year was an illuminated overdrive lockout switch.

The base engine was a 3.9-liter ohv V6. Optional engines included a 5.2-liter ohv V8 (gas and CNG), a 5.9-liter ohv V8, a 5.9-liter inline 6-cylinder turbodiesel, and for the heavy-duty pickups, the super-hot 8.0-liter V10.

A 5-speed manual transmission was standard. Light-duty and heavy-duty 4-speed automatics were optional.

1998[]

A 4-door Crew Cab was introduced this model year.
