I need to be schooled again:
What makes the Dodge truck so much in demand? They build an HD light truck for Sterling, a Dakota for Mitsubishi and Nissan is courting them for a full size truck. What the hell?
You don't see any F-series clones runniing around or GM clones either. Yes, Ford builds the Mazda and GM builds the Izuzu truck.
If I were in the car business and wnated a cloned truck, I'd go for the truck that sells the most.
Someone, please take me school here?

They don't do stirling anymore - Daimler canned the brand (they were the ones who tried to bring the brand back into medium duty - and since Dodge, which was a division of Daimer at the time had 3500-5500 trucks) and the Mitsubishi raider deal fell through because they weren't selling enough. The nissan deal is pretty dead in the water too

People like the aggressive styling of Dodge, while GM and Ford go for the more power but smooth styling, which although sells much more, doesn't find an attractive styling past what they are for. Plus the possible fact that Dodge just doesn't sell enough or takes the lowest deals that wouldn't pass for Ford or GM.
