Overview of 1997 Dodge Ram 2500 LT For Sale by Owner

Today, RAM is a stand-alone brand of pickup trucks and well-known for its versatile array of tough, capable and yes, luxurious offerings in the full-size, medium-duty and heavy-duty segments. But before 2010, RAM was merely a model under the Dodge hierarchy, and the trucks were known as the Dodge Ram. That’s what we have here, a 1997 Dodge Ram 2500 LT for sale from Baytown, Texas. This is a second-generation Dodge RAM and it’s done 154,788 miles so far. With its Cummins turbodiesel six, manual gearbox and replaced interior, it’s the ideal truck for someone looking for a decent workhorse, as well as a person who wants something a little different from the Nineties. Contact us if you fit the bill.

The exterior of this 1997 Dodge Ram 2500 LT presents a clean, functional look with a chrome front bumper, chrome rear bumper, and a bright chrome grille.

Altogether, the interior delivers a clean and uncluttered driving space that complements the truck’s heavy-duty purpose.

The 2016 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is one of the cars that helped redefine what a modern American muscle car could be.

The 1972 Dodge Challenger sits squarely in the golden era of Mopar muscle, and this Petty Blue example brings together the visual drama and small-block character that made the E-body such an enduring favorite. Showing just 168 miles on the odometer, it is powered by a 340ci V8 backed by a 727 TorqueFlite 3-speed automatic, with Hooker headers and dual exhaust adding some extra attitude to the combination. The Petty Blue finish, white side stripes, dual hood scoops, 340 Magnum callouts, and chrome 5-spoke wheels give it the unmistakable look of a period street machine. Then there is the cabin: a rare white vinyl interior that completely changes the personality of the car and gives this Challenger a far more distinctive presentation than the usual dark-trimmed muscle car.
