1981 Dodge D250 review from North America
"A good heavy duty truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It has had a new transmission at about 150,000 miles. Other than that, the truck has been very good.
General comments?
This truck has been very reliable for 26 years. It has been a work truck and has towed many loads.
It doesn't have to much punch at take off, but it will get it up shortly.
