Bought this as a medium duty truck, hauled across the US a buncha times. Only changed the oil, cleaned the air-filter, and added diesel - it never slowed down !!! Looked good, worked good - it hit the mark for value/performance.

This '98 turbo diesel 2500 4x4 automatic is my second Dodge. I owned a '97 4x4 with a 5.2l (318) 1/2 ton 5 speed stick that I absolutely loved, but it couldn't handle a Lance camper and a boat. The '98 really handles the camper and boat very well; I blew by my father in law's Ford v-10 while he was pulling his a 26' light travel trailer; of course we were coming over Carson spur from the Nevada side. It's steep.

I purchased the vehicle three years ago and purchased an extended warranty. The warranty was the best purchase of my life. The truck has been in the shop six times for the following issues - Power windows not working, ignition swith replaced, power steering, cooling system, replaced brake sensor (4 times). Good looking truck (when it is on the road).

Bought this truck new. Have 103K on it now. Other than brakes and tires never have had a problem. {On third set of breaks and second set of tires.} Key was not having anti-locks. Bought HD package with overloads and tow. Ride a little stiff, but was built for heavy work it has had to do in its life. Will be a fan for life. Fuel isn't ideal, but that wasn't why I needed this much truck.

An excellent truck for work of pleasure. could get better fuel mileage, but is accepatalbe for a truck of this type. Dealership was very helpful and service has been outstanding.
