1985 Dodge Ramcharger 4x4 review from North America
"Anvil Tough"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear Brake Line went out
Flat Tire.
General comments?
I traded a computer and $100 for this truck. I got it for off-road use. It runs excellent. It starts almost instantaneously. The transmission is buttery smooth. The steering has some play, but it is tolerable. It uses some oil and a lot of gas. Trail mileage has been about 6 mpg. Nothing has broke yet except the brake line. It is awesome on the trails. The truck is a tight fit on some trails, but it will go through just about anything.
