Thinking of buying the 1998 Dodge Ram Van?

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 1998 Dodge Ram Van for sale by us right now. This page helps you judge the 1998 Dodge Ram Van before you buy one anywhere.

A buyer's checks

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

Under the hood

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

Who rents the Ram Van

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Size and space

As a car, it is easy to drive and park in the city.

Rent it for a week first

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Ram Van answers the big questions. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

Which one to look for

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

What it costs to run

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.

Ready to ask?

Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 1998 Dodge Ram Van from us first.
