I owed a 03, 05, 06 Ram ... and it was always referred to with the Rams head emblem, followed by Dodge Ram.
In the literature I receive ... I was refered to with the Ram emblem and only the word Ram ...
I guess their plans are underway ...
According to the Allpar article, RAM will indeed be marketed separately but still part of Chrysler. Like Jeep.

The RAM brand could be expanding up as well as sideways. FIAT wants it's European commercials as part of the RAM brand. As well IVECO is developing larger diesel engines in the 15-16 Litre area to compete with Volvo, Scania , MAN etc. There is talk of IVECO with its CASE subsidiary developing a convential Class 8 truck to compete against Cummins powered Paccar(Peterbuilt) Daimler owned Freightliners and the Volvo owned Macks.

Nissan, Toyota, Kia, Hyundai, GM, Mini, Smaart, and Ford will have something to say about Chrysler increasing their small car market share. Their products aren't standing still.
