The Dodge Ramcharger is a large sport utility vehicle built by Dodge from 1974 to 1994 (and from at least 1986 until 2001 in Mexico) based on the shortened wheelbase of the Dodge D Series/Ram pickup truck chassis. A Plymouth version, named the Trailduster was offered from 1974 to 1981, the brand's only SUV.
