1982 Dodge Rampage Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Owners of the 1982 Dodge Rampage generally feel very positive about the truck's performance and practicality. Many appreciate its ease of handling, fuel efficiency, and unique design, while some concerns have been raised about rust and the need for specific parts. The comfortable interior and good visibility are other highlights for drivers, but the stock carburetors have received criticism. Overall, it's seen as a reliable, fun-to-drive option."
Loved this little Pickup. 2.2L Engine was easy work on and it was great in the snow. Wouldn't mind having another one as a little weekend runabout. Great little pickup truck. I've hauled over 8 sheets of drywall and it never missed a step.
October 21, 2009One owner, no rust,no dents. Kept in garage. Complete Shelby drivetrain. Fresh ground up restoration. Body and paint perfect,Origional interior like new. New racing seats with 5 point harneses. Excellent performance, 300 horse power. ten thousand RPM tach, 160 MPH speedometer.
February 17, 2011I still have the old Rampage. It was great to drive, faster than hell for a 80's front driver. Too bad Chrysler had no idea what rust protection is.

March 30, 2008I have driven a rampage for the last fifteen years,and their are maney reasons why i think it is the best truck ever made.First it drives and handles great,it is very easy to get in and out of.The doors open very wide,also you can put things behind the seats {the first exstended cab].You can put things in the back of the truck very easy without streaching over the sides. The gas mileage is great ,i get 26 to 31 miles per gallon.
March 4, 2008Economical, great leg room, it was the first extended cab, Stowage behind seat, Peppy 2.2 motor, excellent visibility with no blind spots, 4 speed stick shift. all original equipment, upgraded two barrel Holley carb..29 mpg in the city average prior to rebuild. 160 on complete premium rebuild, and still breaking in
January 24, 2014Performance -I Love this thing...Is it a car? Is it a truck? It's actually a better Truck that you'd think. It's payload is rated @ 1,100 pounds and it does pull it not real well up the Mountains here in PA but, what can you say, it's a fwd 4 cylinder. Build Quality - Not too bad it has rust issues here in the North but the Struccture isn't bad. Appearance - I love the looks that it gets as I drive it down the road. Mine is not a show piece but I'd take it if I had the time to finish it about half decent just because I want to see the reactions to it. Cost of Ownership - It's a 2.2 Chrysler Parts are cheap and easy to find. Body Parts...not so much Rampage specific Parts are getting really difficult.
