1996 Dodge Ram Wagon SLT A passenger van built to truck standards. By Jim McCraw, New Car Test Drive .com

The full-size Dodge Ram Wagon passenger van is among the oldest vehicles on the

American car and truck market, having first hit the showrooms in time for the 1971

model year. A quarter of a century later, the Dodge full-size passenger van is still

plugging away, in the same size and shape as the original 1971 model, but with about a

million product improvements baked in.
