1997 Dodge Ram Pickup LS review from North America
"One tough truck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I recently bought this 4X4 extended cab. I have had no problems with it as of yet.
General comments?
This truck was bought by me with 158K miles on it and I was blown away. It is like a new truck. It handles like new and seems to be remarkably strong. It has a roomy interior and is very attractive. I understand that some trucks have problems, but in order for this Dodge to have this many miles on it and still be this tight and pretty it says a lot for the company. Most vehicles that are this high of mileage look like it. This truck looks new.
