Have opportunity to trade 92 kota for 88 RC..any advice?
I currently drive a 1992 Dodge Dakota CC 4x4 with 143k and new tranny, 31 x 10.50, flowmaster, roll bar...etc...etc...etc....
ON the way home from work the other day I found a 1988 RamCharger for sale along the road in a small dealership. It has the Bulletproof 318 TBI with 135k...33 x 12.50 tires..new..on black wagon wheels. CD Player. Factory Roll Bar. Faded blue with some rust on passenger side fender. LUND Visor. New Inspection.Basic Strip Down Model. The dealer will take $1500 cash or trade for my truck with $1000 cash on top into my pocket.
Is this deal worth it? MY dad had an 89 when I was little and I loved it. I've always wanted a RamCharger but the biggest thing that concerns me as an 18 year old school student, is MPG. My Dakota gets a tiny 13 on a lucky day. I asked my dad about his and he couldnt remember exactly but was guessing 13...on his 31 x 10.50.
Does anyone have a RC with a similar setup that would like to share their MPG?
Any advice is helpful. Should I keep the kota? or get a mopar 4x4 legend?
Thank you,
Charles
