When I was talking to one of the local dealers to work a deal ... He said that Dodge Trucks will break away from Chrysler.

Not how true that is ...

Word is they will be Rams. The Dodge brand will be gone. I'm not sure I like that but...

Ram is just to big for Dodge to manage along with its van'v suv's and car's ,
so Ram becomes its on brand under Chrysler , CAB.

PS/ Ram its break away from Dodge , not Chrysler

Hmmm I'm trying to follow this but I'm having a hard time.
Do you work for Fiat/Chrysler?
I don't mean that in a derogatory sense but I'm getting that impression.
I would actually find that to be bonus points for Fiat if they had folks polling sites like this to see what Americans want in their trucks!!

Here's what my dealer told me (and we know they're always right, don't we?)
Now that Chrysler is no longer part of Daimler-Benz, they won't be carrying the Sprinter. It's interesting that the 2010 Chrysler fleet catalog lists the 2009 Sprinter (they don't call it a 2010) as a stop-gap.
For 2011, Fiat will be supplying "something similar" to replace the Sprinter.
I suppose, if you want a Sprinter, you'll still be able to get one, since I've seen them with Freightliner and Mercedes badges.

how bout remote mount fuel, oil, and transmission filters. would make maintenance easier to perform, and in that end, make your vehicles last longer/ less likely to be in for warranty repairs.

How about optional manual hubs? Keep manual transfer case shifting as an option?
