1985 Dodge Ramcharger Prospecter review from North America
"An off road Chevy eating beast."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace windshield wiper motor.
I had to charge my air conditioning.
General comments?
I have always been a very big fan of dodge trucks and this truck is perfect for me. I have took the "Beast" to places that other trucks only dream of going, I am not scared to take the "Beast" anywhere. I am planing to keep this truck forever and I am sure it will last that long.
But there is a couple of things I would like to put on the "Beast" such as, a push bar, a light bar, and some new Mopar style valve covers.
