 1996 Dodge Ram 2500 2wd with 283,000 miles

Legendary 12 valve Cummins 5.9L Turbo Diesel bulletproof 1 million mile engine
I have owned this truck almost 5 years and never had an engine issue. This truck to my knowledge has never been tuned or had the injection pump played with.

Inside is very clean, no rips, tears, or smells.

I have taken very good car of this truck over the years, in the last 7,000 miles I've had:

The transmission went through, brand new torque converter, full flush with new fluid and filter. Shifts perfect. $1000

All new front brakes, rotors, calipers, pads, everything. Stops excellent. $800

New rear drums around 15,000 miles ago.

New alternator (lifetime warranty) and 2 brand new batterys - truck fires right up

New radiator - runs very cool

New speed sensor in the rear diff with brand new fluid.

New ball joints in the front end, steering is tight.

All the tires have very good tread and are 10 ply

New serpentine belt.

The flat bed is a 8.5 L x 7 W with gooseneck and class 3 hitch. This truck can tow anything you put behind it or you can drive it empty and get 20mpg all day long. Great all-around truck. I added the flatbed at around 240k and have only pulled a gooseneck for about 3k miles total, so this truck hasn't been worked hard.

This truck is very solid mechanically, theres just a few small things I haven't yet gotten around to fixing:

Theres a loose connection or a bad vacuum line somewhere, I'm not getting any air out of the dash. The A/C does work very well, just need to find the bad vaccum line.

There is some chipping of the paint I need to repair.

The brake and abs light is on, brakes seem to work fine. Maybe a wheel speed sensor is bad.

I pulled the front seats to clean the carpet, the seat sliders got a little out of wack in the process and could use a little attention. Also need to get a bolt for the drivers side seat belt.

It's been sitting for a few months and could use a new fuel filter

Bondo work on the lower passenger door could be better, can be easily fixed.

Just little stuff, I may have time to address soon, I'm just not sure.

This is a great truck that has been taken care or, don't miss out on a rare dodge 12valve. These things just seem to keep going up in value. Clean title.

Price is firm. serous inquires only

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.

Dodge Challenger Scat Pack adds power and noise, with a warranty

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

If you want to go fast, there's certainly nothing wrong with the Dodge Challenger SRT8. With 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque for 2014, there's certainly not much to complain about. But what if you want something more aftermarket in flavor? There's no shortage of options, but while turning to the tuner world will make your car plenty fast, that extra power won't just shred rear tires, it'll torch your warranty, as well. That's where Dodge's Scat Pack comes in.
With three stages of mods for both the 5.7 and 6.4-liter Hemi V8s Challenger (as well as the 5.7-liter Charger and, soon, the four-pot Dart), the Scat Pack cars give drivers all the power, aggression and noise of a heavily modded aftermarket car while maintaining the piece of mind provided by the Dodge warranty.
Power gets bumped up to 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque with the 6.4-liter Scat Pack, while the 5.7-liter can provide up to 58 hp and 47 lb-ft of torque to add to the stock engine's 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet. It's the latter engine that can really get some work done, with upgrades ranging from the mundane - intake and exhaust - to the racy, like the ported heads and high-flow headers.

Chrysler's Jefferson North plant builds 5-millionth SUV [w/video]

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

Chrysler's Jefferson North Assembly Plant opened in 1992 for production of the first Jeep Grand Cherokee, but in the subsequent years, the Detroit plant has gone on to produce some of the company's biggest SUVs including the Jeep Commander and Dodge Durango. Earlier this week, the plant produced its five-millionth SUV, which, fittingly, was a Grand Cherokee.
Celebrating the plant's five-millionth unit, the silver 2014 Grand Cherokee was promptly donated to the USO. In addition to this milestone SUV, Chrysler also had a near-perfect 1993-95 ZJ Grand Cherokee on hand for the photo op. Scroll down for the Chrysler press release as well as a video showing some of the speeches from the celebration.
