Report: The Dodge Ram 1500 to keep steel body until 2020 - eGMCarTech

The 2015 Ford F150 is making quite the statement, what with its aluminum body shaving off enough pounds to make a weight watcher’s participant jealous. So far, GM is known to be working on their own lightweight versions of their next-gen light-duty pickups, due sometime around 2018. However, word from Reuters is Chrysler themselves won’t be able to get an aluminum body on the Ram until sometime... This could hamper sales of Ford’s F150 and GM’s next-generation trucks while the Ram could benefit from this shortage by sticking with the more ubiquitous material. Source: www.egmcartech.com
