1998 Dodge Ram Pickup 4 X 4 supercab Sport review from North America
"Great truck, good power and very comfortable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Goodyear tires are cheaply built (50000km). Replaced twice (80000km) then switched to different brand.
Replaced drivers side tie rod, ball joints both sides.
Front disc's and pads were replaced at 70000km.
Paint is bubbling on front and rear bumper.
Valve noise from under the hood; brought to dealer twice and still hasn't been fixed, but motor always ran strong.
Passenger side rear speaker went out at 20000km.
General comments?
Power is awsome from 360. Never been beat by Ford or 6L Chevy pickups.
Inside of truck is still like new.
4 X 4 has never let me down. Extreme use; towing boat, 3 snowmobiles, and frozen lake use.
Very comfortable. I'm 6'4 and I have lots of headroom, back is also very roomy.
