1996 Dodge Ram 1500, V-8 review from North America
"Never broke down once"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
NOTHING! Its been a unreal truck. We had the truck since it was brand new, and the only 2 things we have had to replace or do to it was at 140,000 change the brakes for the first time. Note that was also when it was 8 years old to. And the fuel pump at 145,000. Also at 8 years of age. And both those repairs are normal maintenance repairs.
General comments?
It is the most dependable automobile I have ever seen. I know if I got out there and crank it even almost 10 yrs latter, it will crank. Never had a problem with it. I have a chrysler cirrus also, and have almost givin up on cars, after seeing the preformance of this truck vers. cars.
