Dodge
is a great American manufacturer of automobiles.
They have created many convenient as well
as top of the market cars. The Dodge brothers,
John and Horace originated the company in
Detroit, Michigan. These brothers were early
stockholders and engine builders for Ford
Motor Co. before producing their first car
in November 1914.
Dodge
has been becoming a quite popular motor
vehicle. In 1916 it established the Budd
all-steel bodywork, which was used quite
frequently thereafter. As the brothers searched
the market they gained notoriety. The price
of their cars were $785 while also being
fourth in overall sales in the United States
in 1916 with 70,700 cars sold. By 1920 the
company moved to second in overall sales.
By 1924 the Dodge 4 was still the main product,
while 1000 cars were being produced a day.
A breakthrough came in 1927 when a 3.7 litre,
six cylinder automobile exploded into the
industry with "internal-expanding hydraulic
brakes.(refer to source 6)"
Overall
numerous developments occurred over the
years. Many new cars were produced from
1914 to the present. Some of the biggest
products came in the last twenty years with
the introduction of the full size pickup
truck, Dodge Ram and the minivan, Dodge
Caravan. These cars also went mainstream
due to their extra styles and dependability
on the road. The Dodge brothers formed the
company and manufactured quality automobile
through cheap prices and upgraded technology.
With such innovation and strength the brothers
brought the company into a huge and lucrative
market.
In
July 1928, the company was sold to Walter
Chrysler for $175,000,000. The Dodge 4 was
discontinued and new front wheel brakes
approached the market. After the purchase
Dodge still kept their individuality. Their
cars became more expensive, but they did
offer a standard 6 for $765 in 1929, while
other models approached $1000.
