Chrysler to Build More Than 300,000 Ram 1500 Pickups at Warren Plant in 2013

Chryslers plans to manufacture more than 300,000 Ram 1500 pickups at its Warren plant in 2013, a record in the facility’s history.

The 300,000-vehicle target reflects the US automaker’s confidence in the upgraded 2013 Ram 1500 model, the importance of the pickups for the Detroit automaker’s profits and the expectation that this year pickup sales will see a significant increase across the industry. In November, Chrysler announced it will add about 1,000 new jobs at its Warren Truck Plant.
