Dodge, sur les voies de la liberté

Au lendemain de Pearl Harbour, l'industrie d'outre-Atlantique mobilise toutes ses forces pour se consacrer à la seule production de guerre. Chrysler, un des trois grands constructeurs automobiles, s'engage alors résolument dans de nombreux programmes d'armement : blindés, munitions, pièces d'artillerie, moteurs d'avions sortent massivement des usines du groupe.

Mais c'est surtout dans la gamme des véhicules tactiques légers que Chrysler va, à travers sa filiale Dodge et avec sa camionnette 4x4 de 750 kg, manifester tout son savoir-faire. Dénommé Weapons Carrier, le véhicule bénéficie de l'expérience acquise depuis 1939 avec des camionnettes régulièrement améliorées tant au niveau de la mécanique et des performances que de la silhouette générale.

Pages of the book Dodge, sur les voies de la liberte (1)

Le Weapons Carrier s'est décliné dans de multiples versions - transport de personnel, sanitaire, radio, véhicule de commandement - et a été livré largement à l'US Army, mais aussi aux Alliés, britanniques, soviétiques ou français libres.
Robustes et fiables, les camionnettes Dodge ont continué à servir bien après le conflit, dans de nombreuses armées occidentales comme dans le secteur civil où, après leur réforme, elles ont poursuivi une nouvelle et longue carrière.

Dodge and Ram Pickups - An Illustrated History

The history of American automotive brands illustrates the tenor and spirit of their times. One of the most important is century-old Dodge/Ram trucks, a sales juggernaut that once propped up Chrysler Corp. and now does the same for international auto giant Stellantis.

In this book award-winning automotive author Patrick Foster details the genesis of today's hot-selling Ram pickups, vans, and four-wheel drives. His research takes the reader from the Graham brothers (who built the first trucks sold through Dodge dealers) through Ram becoming a standalone brand in the 21st century, at which point it occupies the number-two position for light-duty truck sales in the world.
Dodge/Ram enthusiasts will love this book, as will truck lovers in general, with its richly illustrated pages and detailed text.
