1991 Dodge D50 review from North America
"Very good"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have done nothing but replace the battery and change the oil.
General comments?
The truck has 154,000 on it and needs no oil between changes, I put a 1,000 cold crank amp. battery in it, it takes just one battery where as the newer ones take two. I have had no problems starting it, it started two mornings that were -15 belowm it wasn't even plugged in.
The truck is very cheap to operate. I checked the mileag,e it was getting 26 miles per gallon which isn't bad for a truck with a 1 ton frame and gear plus it's a 4X4.
I am very happy with it.
