Re: [FWDLK] What's in a name.

Back in the 1960's and 1970's Chrysler marketed
Dodge Trucks in Australia that were International
Trucks in origin.

Also, Dodge Trucks in Great Britain during the same
time frame were Rootes's Commer commercial vehicles.
Today, the British Dodge Truck is built by Renault!
