1992 Dodge D250 LE review from North America
"This is one of the strongest, most reliable vehicles ever built"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My transmission bearings went out at 175,000 miles.
The injection pump developed a leak at 200,000 miles.
No other problems at all since I have owned the truck.
General comments?
This is a 14 year old truck that I still pull my 5th wheel travel trailer all over the United States every summer without any worries.
It will pull any load you want to hitch it to without any hesitation.
I get 20 miles per gallon empty and 15 miles per gallon loaded.
It can out pull and out run any new diesel pickup on the road today.
I have never owned a more reliable, safe and strong vehicle in my life.
