Thoughts on mid 90s Rams

They are noted for tranny issues as stated above. I have bought about 30 of them with bad trannys to fix and resell. Good used ones aren't easy to find around here and they aren't usually cheap when you do score a good one. I have seen them run 200K miles too so it is just the luck of the draw and if/how it was serviced.

If you are in the rust belt in Iowa or it is possible the truck came from the rust belt you might want the frame real well too.
