1985 Dodge D150 review from North America
"A tank on wheels!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Smoke's a little when you crank it.
Drivers side door hinges are a little worn.
General comments?
I just want to say how pleased I am with this truck! It has a 318 engine, in my opinion one of the best motors ever made period (American or Japan). It has over 200000 original miles on the engine and transmission, and still running strong. I pull our camper down the highway with it no problem. Everybody is always asking me to sell it to them. They don't make em like this anymore!!
These trucks have an awesome sound with dual exhaust.
A lot of power.
Just plain tough.
