1995 Dodge Ram Pickup Ram 1500 SLT review from North America
"Good solid truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced water pump at 140,000.
Replaced starter and alternator around 90,000.
Have only gone through 2 batteries and 2 serpentine belts since bought new.
New fuel pump around 130,000. Had to have filter/strainer in fuel line cleaned around 100,000 - think it was just due to trash from using poor gas though.
Headliner has fallen and needs to be repaired.
Oil leak around front pan. Not significant enough to worry about right now.
Catalytic converter had to be replaced.
General comments?
Overall, I love my dodge truck. Has seen many years of hunting and farm work on the weekends. Drive it everyday and have put it through it's paces. Gets 16 mpg whether driving by myself or hauling ATV in back of truck to the beach. Good room for standard sized cab.
