1985 Dodge D100 review from North America
"The best truck I have owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I got the truck, the seat was torn, but a seat cover fixed the problem.
The carb. was bad at about 300000 miles. This truck has pulled a camper and a boat, so it was well used.
General comments?
This truck is a tank. I have put it in the ditch three times and only added dents.
This truck also has power. The high miles mean nothing for the 318. The truck will get up to 90 mph. The 3 speed will pull anything you want.
It rides wonderful. I hit bumps all the time and never feel them. My brothers '98 Dodge 1500 doesn't ride this sweet.
