Seems like a fine young man and it's not hard to tell that his Dad's proud of him
No doubt about that!
@@UNITEDBYTRUCKS i bought myself short bed 69 chevrolet truck over the weekend fellas just a body but it's soild and patina is sweet going to ls3 it and put it down low
I have a 1981 dodge ram prospector first of its kind first gen shes my first truck and i treat her right
Sweet!
I was shocked to hear him say “retirement” pretty smart guy right there
evan keyes haha i almost fell out of the truck
Yeah that’s a good looking truck, the kids got some good taste and a good head on his shoulders.👍
I’m 16 and me and my pops just got me a first gen 1992 short bed D150 and I’m in love!!! Always loved the first gens found her on Facebook market place for 3,700 and we got her for 3,100 makes me happy to see other youngsters driven them ol dodges! 🤣
So cool!
There's hope for the future when you see young men like this guy ! Hard work and respect gets you a long way. Would love to see where this kid ends up in 10years!
Completely agree!
Joesph definitely seems like a nice, smart and hardworking young man. Nice truck.
Still own and Drive my 1974 Dodge Club Cab Power Wagon. Originally bought New by my Dad. I bought it from him in 1980. Still Running the 440 V8 with 4 Speed manual Transmission. Refuse offers to sell it all the time
It is great to see a young man putting in work and spending his hard earned dollars on his truck.
Yup. Just how we did it coming up.
@@UNITEDBYTRUCKS yes sir!
Sweet Mopar,i love this body style so much more than 94 up
Lonnie M me too!
Hey, I daily drove a 1st gen 89' Ram last year when I was 17 too! I still daily drive it, and I'm 18 except mine is a long box 318
Sweet! Stick with it, man!
He’s a good kid. Nice to see a father son thing like this
Exactly
I’m 17 and I’m a week I will be daily driving a 1980 k10 on 35in tires
Awesome!
Joseph - You've learned some lessons I didn't learn until I was a lot older than you are. You've got a good head on your shoulders. Keep listending to your dad, it sounds like he's giving you good advice. I'll tell you something I don't say very often. If you were my son, I would be proud as hell of you. You're going' places, young man. Whatever your dream is, keep working toward it.
I had an 84 back in the late 90’s man I miss that old truck so much. This thing brings back some memories.
Sweet ass Dodge. 90 is the last year for that particular style grill if i remember. That's why it looks older than a 90s era truck.
So cool!
That truck is nice and I'm more impressed with that young man.
congratulations, this is how a truck of those is maintained💯👍👍👍
I think he should get the head gasket checked out. A puff of white smoke from the muffler usually means water or coolant is finding it's way into the cylinders.
Other than the steering wheel it looks just like my mom's 83 she had when I was a kid............the boy has got himself a beautiful truck
Trent Robey no doubt about it!
that's one hell of a dad
That's one super tidy truck, great to see young fellas with a passion for classic trucks, great video once again👍
Allan Taylor completely agree!
I’m 19 and building a 1977 c25 , first gen dodges are clean trucks too. But this is an inspiration to me man. Lol I’ve had the truck since I was 17. Saved up a lot of money from just working like you man.
That's awesome!
Just look that truck, wow, gorgeous.
Impressive young man and great video. We all well remember our first wheels and this young man will always have this video to look back upon.
Tim McGrath that was my thought too. A big part of what we do is getting and keeping young folks engaged in these trucks
Slick truck and cool 1st truck story. His dad has started him into classics and that's awesome. Love the video
jason stroup Yup! His dad is an awesome guy
You could still drop Cummins in there.. You don't have to haul nothing, nice truck. I think all old trucks are just tough as nails and cool as hell
Lucky kid. I don't miss that ATL traffic.
It's still bad.
I’ve daily driven an 87 d150 8 ft bed since I was 16.
That's one cool kid.kuddos
For sure!
Beautyful truck..mine is a '91 D150..love it
Cesar Estrada sweet! Love a good first gen.
Ram trucks are the best trucks ever made
My first vehicle was a similarly painted 1990 Dodge 150 4x4 Supercab truck with a 318 engine. It was my dads truck and he sold it to me in 1994, it was all stock except for some chrome 8 spoke wheels. To me at the time it was the most beautiful truck on earth.
Power Ram means that it's 4 wheel drive . It's an update on the name Power Wagon from the previous generation Dodge truck.
Great info!
Heck yeah 1st gen
I just bought an ‘85 Power Ram W150 and I love it. It rides solid for a 35 year old truck
Awesome!
the word needs young folks like this. love the video. USA
I had a 89 short box power ram, lifted with 33s. I ended up getting rid of it like a idiot. The 360ci had some goodies on her and boy was it fun to drive! I should slap the shit out of myself
Oh, man. That sounds like fun.
I have a 1990 Dodge 1/2 Ton truck to, Extended Cab Long bed, has a 318 motor and a Granny 4 speed Transmission. Not a power house but she gets me where I to go. My first truck ever and i love the thing so much, my truck also had lots of room under the hood to.
I love those trucks!
Me too!
Good people and sweet truck...just dont see very many of these trucks anymore...and a short bed to boot!😎.
My thoughts exactly
Just bought a 1984 Dodge D150 with 94k original miles and I’m slowly rebuilding it
Very cool!
6:21 just the pure nostalgia
Finally a mopar love it
Very clean old dodge
John Dudley very clean!
Dang fine young man and great truck! Bless you all, great video!
Thank you! Completely agree.
My 91' c1500 has almost identical engine compartment setup and same amount of room. Sweet truck!
Coolest kid in highschool!!! I drove a 71 K20 I was pretty cool cause of that truck still got it too!
No doubt about it!
This truck takes me back to my high school buddies dad's truck we called dodgezilla a lot of good memories in that truck going to deer camp
Man, that's awesome!
I had a w150 long bed 4x4 when I lived in New Mexico. Loved it. Donated it to a women's shelter when I moved. Awesome ride.
I just bought an ‘85 power ram w150 short bed in Santa Fe from a guy today. It drives great and I love it!
I love seeing young people drive and have a passion for old trucks as myself not to brag but I'm turning 15 and I drive a lowered 1985 dodge D150 4speed and I love it
I drive a dodge D200 only 90k original miles 360v8 automatic still drives like new!!!
I daily an 87 long bed 2wd in the same paint and trim. Sweet truck
Christopher Dyer heck yeah, man! That’s cool
Beautiful truck
Sweet dad had a Dodge warlock! It was nice he kept it 2 weeks and traded it in for a power wagon. because it's was so nice he didn't want to scratch up tha bed. And it nice to see tha younger generation in ole trucks. UBT 4 life!
My brother had a 81 2wd. It was sweet.
DeadManRollingAtSquarebody Forum awesome!
That's a cool truck 👍
Harrison Hunter no doubt about it! Very tasteful
Jesus that is a BEAUTIFUL truck
haha for real
Dude that thing is a beast! Super cool for a 1990.
No doubt. This body style started in the 70s.
That's a sweet truck. Another great video 👍
It really is! Just a few tasteful mods to a really clean truck.
Beautiful old truck
Yes indeed!
Really fine truck, my grandpa’s 89 D150 had the same black and silver paint job.
When I was 15 I almost had my hands on a 1 of 500 special edition Volkswagen I've wanted for years but my dad didn't want to go that far. Had the cash, just couldn't drive yet. Car probably worth 4x what I would have paid now lol. 4 years later I now own 3 other volkswagens and I'm looking at buying a truck to daily. Probably a first gen D150, build a 4 link for the rear and drop it a bit with maybe a mercedes diesel under the hood. 400hp and 600ft-lbs sounds good for a daily.
I got my first gen when I was 18, I totally recommend! im 19 now
Heck yeah!
Got a d150 givin to me when i was 16, and now I'm 18 buying a d250 in 2 days, I'm so excited. My d150 has 82,000 original miles and the d250 has 96,000.
@@carycarlile4617 cummins?
Beautiful ram
Nice truck and family!!
I always like that square look on trucks not really interested in Trucks now unless they got wheel spacers.
Styling is old school but the engine/efi /trans is similar tech as GM at the time. I worked at a GMC dealer back then, also TBI in the trucks.
Good truck and cool 👍 nice video as always 👌
That’s a nice one ! Great content Robbie ...
Thanks for tuning, as always, HL!
That looks exactly like mine except mines a 1986 and it’s the Royal Se version of this
Nice song choice on truck intro 👍 came straight to this channel to tell everyone what Iv traded for today 1967 gmc k10 short bed with the original odd ball gmc grill still in it and the small back glass fleet side bed is real rough frames good and cab has 327 with turbo 350 she rolls and stops and turns over another project 🤘🇺🇸
thats a BAD ASS truck congrats
Falken tires are on point!!
Damnit I like that truck!
Derek Phillips me too!
To be 17 again.... Nice looking Dodge...
haha for real
My first truck was a 93 w250 I miss it so much the way the doors sound when they shut and the buzzer for the key I miss that old dodge a lot but that’s a awesome truck and it’s cool to see a kid like I was driving a truck like I did
Well that’s a sweet dodge and the kid seems like a good kid I have a 84 crew cab d350 and a long bed 1987 Dodge Ram w250 with 90 thousand
Very nice ride 👍🏻
I had an 89 Dodge Ram Charger in high school till the steering finally went out on it. When you open the hood on this I honestly had a moment.
1st gen Dodge trucks are a very close second to Square Bodies! Such a great example!
supppper sweet brother i have a 50k mile 2 tone gold 1987 150 LE my self not quite as nice i bought it 20 yrs ago and parked it. after driving home. this video is giving me tge motovation to dial it in. thank you. and may god bless you
I got a 88 d100 power ram we put a 440 in. Trucks a short bed. Fun. Doing some minor repairs now.
Awesome!
I have a 86 long box 360 on propane .Did a good restoration on mine to fix all the issues .defintly feel proud to have something different.
I love to bring my 1984 c10 and show y’all what another 17 year old can do with a little hard work
Shoot us an email at unitedbytrucks@gmail.com. We always like to get to know our guests before they come over to the house.
We just bought our toddlers this truck! 318 motor ours works awesome but looks rough lol. Ours is manual though. 1990 (the year I was born). Our boys are eventually going to restore it with their Dad!
Awesome!
Beautiful truck I drive a 81 dodge w-250 Really good trucks
Great kid video
Man I’m praying I can get the same truck
Looking at an '88 myself. 318 /TF727 4wd "Beater" to fix up. I'll go another way with it than you did, but nice one! Hope you enjoy it!
I’m 17 and just bought a 1998 dodge 3500 flat deck 4x4 with a 360 standard, also own a Nissan hardbody pick up that’s lowered and done up 🤘
Awesome!
Great video! Love you guys are doing something besides just Chevys.
Thanks! That's the plan. We are UNITED BY TRUCKS after all.
Very clean looking truck hope u hook them up with some nice truck gear 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hcucu Cuvuvu oh, for sure!
Back when trucks made good
Haha yup
Love classic trucks, I have a old 69 ford f100 360 v8
So sweet!
For future reference Dodge parts dept can look up VINs back to 1984 for options.
....."Normally right around the speed limit"
Yeah, he knows his Dad will be watching this vid.
Im an irish 13 year old and there is a scrap yard 2 miles from us with 2 rams the owner daily drives one if them its a power ram long bed with a load if stickers and a rams head on the hood but he has one without an engine and its fairly goid with no rust and i want it when im 16
That’s awesome! Stay interested and it will reward you. Hard to beat messing with these old trucks.
square body truck 😍
Looking good!!! I'm currently fixing up my '85 power ram mine also has the 318 but mine has a carburetor. Finding parts for it is not easy hardly anyone makes parts for the first gen dodge.
Yeah truck exclusive parts (body, trim, and interior) are hard to find. But powertrain you walk through a junkyard and are tripping over parts
