Talk:Dodge Rampage

Was this vehicle a marketing flop? if it was, list it on List of commercial failures. I'm assuming that this is a marketing flop because haven't seen too many vehicles like this on the road. Or is this a fair-selling vehicle that had several copies sent to the junkyard relatively early? --SuperDude 22:48, 14 May 2005 (UTC)


 * Not really a flop - a good number were sold. It was just never a really practical truck.  I'd liken it to a slow-selling model (like the Mazda Navajo) not a flop like the Daihatsu Rocky. --SFoskett 14:28, May 16, 2005 (UTC)

I have an 83 Rampage. I love it! Course I'm doing a fair amount of mods including a 2.5 Turbo and 5 speed but even stock it's pretty cool. Draws attention like crazy. I'm one of four in my city and mine is the only 83. Personally I think the Rampage was a flop. I called my Dodge dealership on time and no one knew what a Rampage was but it's a Charger from the A-pillars forward (including suspension and powertrain) so finding parts isn't a huge hassel if you know where to look. - Mr. Rampage

I have an 82 Rampage and I have noticed how everybody forgets that the thing came with an optional 3-speed automatic transmission. I'm a little surprised how Wikipedia is the only site with any sort of up to date information on the car. many other sites will tell you that it has a Volkswagen motor in it when it actually has a Mitsubishi 2.2. Really the thing is an 80's charger in the front half. The only difference is the bed and the lack of a stock turbo. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.160.28.14 (talk) 23:19, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

First FF sports truck?
I think VW's Sporttruck would predate this model by two years considering they were made as early 1980. I'm going to change the line to "one of the few". It could also be corrected to "one of the first", but it's also one of the last manufactured so I find that a tad silly. Urlor (talk) 21:47, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
