  • how many miles did it have when it lost compression? how many miles did you get out of it yourself? just out of curiousity..im going to look at one tomorrow for 600..has 180k on it. everything is in decent shape. strong engine and trans. what do you think?

  • @zmh1988 I got about two months of use out of it - the head gasket leaked - the seller had poured in a bottle of stop leak. I did the same knowing it was on borrowed time. It ran alright until it just flat quit one day. It served its purpose. I had it crushed - the frame rust was too severe and I couldn't sell it to anyone with a clear conscience.

  • in my opinion these trucks are one of the best import trucks for their time. i bought a 92 ram50 for $250 and so far its the most dependable vehicle ive ever owned. they are rare as hell here in SW pennsylvania.

  • I see two in my town regularly - one has over 300,000 miles on it. Mine was rusted out from up north and not well cared for at all. There's one for sale I'm going to look at tomorrow.

  • The truck lost compression in Mid April. The frame was too far gone to sink any money into it, so I had it crushed.

see all
