Bought a new daily driver
« on: July 03, 2005 - 01:45:42 PM »
I picked up another car for a daily driver because I have sombody that is buying my camaro.  Its an 86 Ramcharger SE.  It has a 360 in it and an auto.  The truck is very clean and has very little rust.  Rare for a 20 yo NY truck.  It runs pretty good and just needs a little bit of mechanical work suck as a tune up and it has a vibration over 50 mph.  And I picked it up for the grand total of 800 dollars.  Has anybody here had one and any thoughts on them?

Nice truck. I might buy one if I can sell my 04 Ram but they are pretty rare.

Looks like you got a steal.  I had an 86 several years ago and liked it alot, mine was a 318 though. Probably the worst thing is the gas mileage, but thats to be expected. It towed and hauled everything with ease. IMine also had a vibration when I bought it. Is the vibration comming from the engine or drivetrain?
