The 1988 Dodge D250 Pickup: before you buy

Recalls and complaints
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Engine and fuel
The 3.9L 6-cylinder does the work, through a 3-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
A combined rating of 15.7 L/100 km works out to about 47 litres per 300 km. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $243.40. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,450 a year for 15,000 miles.
Inside and out
It is built for loads that would never fit in a trunk.
A good match for
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
Rent it for a week first
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Drive the D250 Pickup on your commute before you commit to it. A week with the D250 Pickup answers more than any brochure.
What it costs to run
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$4,450 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Choosing the right one
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
