1982 Dodge Ram Pickup review from North America
"A reliable (if maintained) little truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The seats are a little torn.
I had a brake line leak.
The transmission was a little shaky for a while.
Leaked oil and power steering since about 20,000 miles.
General comments?
It is the most reliable vehicle my family has ever seen and borrowed.
I got it for nothing and have put $120 into it. Best deal ever!
My dad was the first owner, and he put about $1000 into it, give or take $100. This is the best vehicle we have ever owned.
