1987 Dodge D150 LE review from North America
"A decent older truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The automatic transmission began shifting at unusually high RPMs, so I got the throttle rod adjusted for a temporary fix. However, I think that the transmission is probably on the way out very soon, so I'm trying to get rid of this truck. Other than that, though, there have been no major problems with it.
General comments?
This is not a fast vehicle by any means, even though it has a V-8.
It sucks down gasoline like it's free, which is not good for teenagers with no money.
Bad points aside, it would make a good work truck, since you can fit a large quantity of stuff in the back.
