1994 Dodge B2500 Conversion - Mark III High roo review from North America
"Great family and trip taking van!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I would say the worst parts on the van is that dodge uses a thinner metal in their doors, but we have been careful so no doors have any problems at this time, but from experience I won't buy a dodge van with a slider. (this van has the double door, no slider.)
Currently there is sometimes a bearing type noise that seems to be coming from the transmission, but no issues with the driving or shifting quality.
General comments?
We have loved this van. The Mark III conversion with the TV and VCP makes the trips easier on the little ones. The leather seats are comfortable and easy to clean.
We are currently looking to sell only to find a larger van that has more than seven seats, since our 6th child we no longer can fit the whole family and not enough extra room for luggage.
Dodge seems to make a reliable motor and tranny setup that gives me peace of mind driving a distance without the cash to do any major repairs.
