The 1987 Dodge Ram 50 Pickup: before you buy
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 1987 Dodge Ram 50 Pickup; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Buying the 1987 Dodge Ram 50 Pickup is a big decision; here is the information we have.
Recalls and complaints
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Owners filed 9 complaints with NHTSA, most often about seat belts, engine and engine cooling and fuel system; have those parts checked. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
The numbers in plain words
Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
By the EPA's combined rating of 10.2 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 31 litres. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $158.10. The EPA estimates US$2,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
When the Ram 50 Pickup makes sense
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
Living with the Ram 50 Pickup
Being a pickup truck, it trades parking ease for a cargo bed.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the Ram 50 Pickup for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. A test week in the Ram 50 Pickup tells you more than any review. Rent the Ram 50 Pickup for a week and see how it fits your life.
Narrowing it down
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 1987 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Money matters
The EPA estimates US$2,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $158.10 at our price setting.
