Why not wait for the 2016 model?

Thats the first time I actually saw in print that Rams will be breaking away. Before buying the Cummins, I got some literature from Dodge.

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.

The milestone most people I know are interested in is the private sale of the government's share.

I didn't see that in the plan.

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.
