Dodge History :
Dodge is a brand name of automobiles and light to heavy-duty trucks. From 1914 to 1927, the company was named the Dodge Brothers Motor Vehicle Company. The Chrysler Corporation acquired the Dodge company in 1928. In 1998, Dodge, along with all other Chrysler subsidiaries merged with Daimler-Benz to form DaimlerChrysler. The Chrysler part of DaimlerChrysler, including Dodge, was sold to a private equity company in 2007, and now operates under the name Chrysler Holding LLC. In 1901, John Francis Dodge and Horace Elgin Dodge moved their Dodge Brothers Bicycle & Machine Factory to Detroit, Michigan from Windsor, Ontario where they were making intricate auto parts. Their bearings and other parts were in demand with the early automobile industry, and they helped design motor parts for early Oldsmobiles. Dodge vehicles are now available in many countries throughout the world. In 2006, Dodge sold more than 1.3 million vehicles in the global market. In Spring 2007, DaimlerChrysler reached an agreement with Cerberus Capital Management L.P. to sell off its Chrysler Group subsidiary of which the Dodge division is part of.
