 Dodge Ram 1500 John and Horace, the Dodge brothers, found their inspiration making parts for Ford and other makers. Their first automobile debuted in 1914 and their reputation for durability and quality immediately spread nationwide. Their first truck was made during World War I, a panel van with a half-ton capacity and a roaring 35 horsepower, four-cylinder engine. Although Dodge had produced trucks since 1917, the 1981 pickups were the first modern day trucks to sport the Ram name. Dodge first used the Ram's head hood ornament back in 1933 to distinguish its trucks as rugged vehicles, but the emblematic badge was dropped in the 1950s. It was resurrected in 1981, when Dodge's marketing think-tank wisely decided to bring back the old mascot.
