    Dodge was a weird beast in the 80s. I had a friend who had one of the later Dodge Conquests (rebadged Mitsubishi Starion) with the big turbo and 12 valve head, that thing hauled *** for it's day! I think it was pushing 200 hp, which was not shabby for 1988. And it didn't fall apart.

    On the other hand my dad bought a 1984 Caravan, the first year they were made (the shame, and it's what I learned to drive in /facepalm). Other than being an underpowered pig - especially with 7 people touring in the Rockies - it got recalled 5 times in the first 2 years. One was a good one - they had to add a little plastic cap in front of the front brake calipers so that rocks from the road wouldn't jam your calipers open! Wheee!

    What a POS that thing was.

    V-dub made one too.
    Eveyone made a ute at one time or another.
    I drive that white El Camino when I feel like burning up some dinosaurs.
    Perfect vehicle for someone like me....I almost NEVER have a passenger in my car.
    In eleven years, I doubt. 6 people have ridden in that VX rt. side seat...the back seat came out the day I brought it home

    Those things caught my eye at the time too. I don't know what it was about the Dodge Conquest TSi, but I really liked the overall look and relative performance. My older brother had once owned a Ford Thunderbird 4 cyl. Turbo Coupe so I had a pretty good idea how those engine/turbo configs could motorvate.
