Family holidays in a 1936 Dodge with compact caravan

  The founders of Dodge are two brothers, John and Horace Dodge, born in Niles, Michigan. After a decade of supplying parts for Ford, the Dodge brothers decided to resign and refused to work with Ford. Whatever their reason might have been, the Dodge brothers still valued quality and durability. So on July 17, 1914, the Dodge brother’s decision to begin selling their vehicles and the Dodge Brothers Company began. A few months later, their very first vehicle, the four-cylinder Dodge Model, was born. With their excellent reputation, the brothers had no problem and sold well. The Dodge brand quickly made its foundation on dependability. In the 1930s, Dodge continued to offer quality, value, and dependability, which was unmatched by any other competitor. Not only was Dodge becoming Internationally successful, but it also helped the US during the war. During World War II, the US depended on Dodge-built parts, aircraft engines, and almost 400,000 trucks during the war. The first post-war Dodges were in high demand by civilians and came out to the market in 1946. In the 1050s, Dodge still stood for dependability, but the design changed the game. This new 1950s design was bold and had a sex appeal with its modern chrome, fins, flare, and a V8 engine. Source: www.miraclechryslerdodgejeep.com/blogs/2736/news/the-hist...
