1990 Dodge Ramcharger LE 150 review from North America
"Great truck, why did they stop making these?"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
She's getting old, so the acceleration isn't quite what it was, but the engine still runs like a rebuilt.
The odometer is stuck at 136588, but I just drove it from Jacksonville, NC to Ft Worth, TX with no problems. Very reliable.
As for comfort, the truck is nice to sit in, but turns into an oven in the summer, add the broken AC, and you'll start to bake.
General comments?
A great truck, has a bullet-proof engine and transmission.
The only major repair I've done is a Borgeson steering shaft to remove about 4 inches of play in the steering wheel. Now the thing can turn on a dime and reminds me of a bull in a glass house. Such a short truck's great to maneuver in the tightest spots.
