Is a Dodge Rampage rare?

The Dodge Rampage was a compact pickup truck produced by Dodge from 1982 to 1984. While not as common as some other Dodge models, the Rampage is not considered an exceptionally rare vehicle. However, its limited production run and unique design make it an interesting collector's item for some enthusiasts.


What is the Dodge Rampage?


The Dodge Rampage was a unibody-constructed, front-wheel-drive compact pickup truck that was based on the Dodge Omni/Plymouth Horizon platform. It was designed to compete with other small pickups like the Ford Courier and Chevrolet LUV. The Rampage featured a distinctive hatchback-style design, which was unusual for a pickup truck at the time.


Production Numbers and Rarity


The Dodge Rampage was only produced for three model years, from 1982 to 1984. During that time, Dodge manufactured a total of around 93,000 Rampages. This relatively low production run, combined with the truck's unique design, contributes to the Rampage's rarity and collector appeal. However, it is not considered an exceptionally rare vehicle, as many other classic and vintage cars have much lower production numbers.


Factors Affecting Rarity



  • Limited Production Run: The Rampage was only produced for 3 model years, resulting in a relatively low total production number.

  • Unique Design: The Rampage's hatchback-style pickup truck design was unusual for the time, making it stand out from more conventional pickup models.

  • Age and Condition: As the Rampage is now over 35 years old, many have been scrapped or are in poor condition, further reducing the number of well-preserved examples.


While the Dodge Rampage is not considered an exceptionally rare vehicle, its limited production, unique design, and age contribute to its collector appeal and make it an interesting find for enthusiasts of vintage and classic trucks.
