Ram is joining up with jeep to rebuild some of the trucks and renovate some of the other trucks and vans they have and these changes will be made in the United States in a jeep factory. One of the trucks they are re-adding to their fleet of trucks is the Dakota and it will come back in 2020 with the jeep pickup that comes out in 2019. They are also thinking the old version of the 1500 will be going away near the end of 2019 or early 2020 and the 1500 will get a makeover and come back better than ever in 2022. But while that is happening they will be having the Ram Rebel TRX which will be the Raptor of the Ram industries and it is powered by the hellcat. They will be keeping the 2500 and 3500 on the same design until it is due for a refreshment in design in 2019. The two commercial vans will keep the same design auntil 2020 or 2021.
Do you think it is a good idea for them to bring back the mid-size dakota?
I think it could be good or it could be bad it could be good because it would add more choices for people looking for a mid-sized pickup but it could be bad because it would decrease the sales of the 1500 because people want the Dakota.
Do you think that Ram should team up with the Jeep industry?
I do not think that it is a good idea because it would mean that Jeep could potentially buy out the ram trucks or something along those lines

Isaiah,
This was put up on Thursday. It has to be up by Wednesday.
I think that this could potentially be good. I could be could because they are making the old new again. And not everybody wants a big truck so i think that it could be conveinent to the people who want mid sized or a little smaller truck. I think that it wound't be a great idea, but for now to get things started it could be a good idea.
Like any decision there are good and bad things that come out of it. A good thing is that people will see it's back and want to buy it becuase it works for families but a bad thing is if it doesn't do as well as they think it will then they will loose some money. I think if they get together and create a product that has features of both, then people will want to by it because Jeep and Ram both have good products.
