The 1985 Dodge D250 Pickup for buyers
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 1985 Dodge D250 Pickup; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before you buy the 1985 Dodge D250 Pickup, here is what the figures say and what to look at.
A buyer's checks
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
The figures, translated
Power: the 3.7L 6-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The EPA rates it at 15.7 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 47 litres. For 1,000 km, budget about $243.40 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,450 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Best uses
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
Practical details
It is built for loads that would never fit in a trunk.
Rent it for a week first
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week with the D250 Pickup answers more than any brochure. Try the D250 Pickup on your commute, then decide.
Which one to look for
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Within the 1985 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
What it costs to run
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$4,450 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $24.34 in fuel.
When you know your dates

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 1985 Dodge D250 Pickup from us first.
