 This Truck is in overall good condition.  I never thought in a million years that I would sell this truck because it is my baby, but circumstances have lead to my decision to sell it.  It is not new or perfect by any-means.  It will be sold as is.  The motor runs amazing and I get really good fuel economy(the best is 23 mpg).  The 1990 Cummins did not come with an inter-cooler.  I had one installed from a 1992 dodge, so it does have an inter-cooler.  While I was at it I had an HX-35 turbo installed, which a turbo that has a smaller fresh air side and a larger exhaust side.  The turbo and inter-cooler were not installed to race and hot rod the truck, they were only installed for performance purposes only(better fuel economy, etc.)  While the intercoller was being installed, I had the front cover of the motor removed and had the killer dowel pin fixed as a preventative measure.  It had not worked itself out at all, but I had the washer put on it to hold it in place, all new seals were put on the front of the motor while this was done.
This truck will fire right up on a cold morning.  In Utah it will get below zero, and the manifold heater works great and it will start right up on sub zero days.  No cranking on anything. It is amazing how good it starts. 
This truck has been babied its whole life.  I bought it from an older gentlemen that received it from his father as part of an inheritance.  So it has been family owned its hole life.  I have a note book with service records of all of the new parts that have been installed.  A new high perfomance clutch was installed at 150,000 miles.  The front and rear brakes and rotors were installed along with rear wheel seals, there is a history of all of the oil changes and there has been a few overhead valve adjustments.  The brakes stop fine and everything, but they are not perfect.  Maybe the front rotors could be turned to make it smoother or something, but they are fine. 
The paint looks good but it is not perfect either.  There are some surface rust spots around the wheel wells, including under the cab on the drivers side door there is a hole the size of a quarter.  The frame only has minimal surface rust there is no major rust.  There are no leaks from the drivetrain.  The only leak comes from the power steering gear box.  This is a slow leak and it has leaked ever since i bought it.  My intentions were to fix it, but the leak is so minimal that I just top off the power steering fluid everytime I change the oil and that has worked fin.  It has a straight pipe exhaust, I do have the muffler somewhere if you would like that.  It sounds good though, it is a real head turner.  I get compliment all the time, and have guys offer to buy this truck from me everywhere I go.
It has not pulled a lot of heavy loads in its life, although it is very capable.  There is a trailer brake controller installed under the dash.  I put the fifth wheel ball in the bed so I could pull a 5th wheel camp trailer and horse trailer occasionally.  It was never abused when it was used to pull, but it pulls great and will pull anything.
The interior is a great shape.  The seat has had a cover on it its whole life.  I took it off.  There is a little bit of cracking in the side(not on the top where you sit) of the seat on the drivers side.  Some of the plastic trim around the headliner has some cracking also.  It is nothing major and it has been there the whole time I have owned it which is about 5 years. 
Whoever ends up with this old dodge will be one lucky individual and will get a hell of of a good truck that will last a really long time.  I really hate to see it go. 

Here is a Video of the truck running(it is a cold start morning):

Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car is ready to burn rubber at SEMA [w/video]

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

The Dodge Charger R/T is all set to rocket down the drag strip in NHRA Funny Car competition with a completely redesigned body debuting at this year's SEMA Show. While only the front decal, side scallops and rear logo really signal this racer as a Charger, that doesn't take away from its promise of hitting absolutely ludicrous speeds.
The engineers' biggest tweak to the body was moving the cockpit further back. This created more clearance under the hood, and the change came with added advantage of giving the driver better visibility out of the car. Composites like Kevlar also helped make the one-piece shell even lighter, while not sacrificing strength.
The new design has already undergone extensive time in the wind tunnel and real-world runs to make sure that none of the changes negatively impacted the aerodynamics. With those tests out of the way, the Charger R/T Funny Car will have the first chance to truly prove itself in NHRA competition at the 2015 Winternationals from February 5-9 at Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, CA.

2015 Dodge Challenger looks fresh, still plenty retro [w/video]

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

It was the Ford Mustang that kicked off the retro-styled muscle car renaissance back in 2005, but it was the Dodge Challenger that served as the movement's poster child, with its unabashedly retro looks. Over the years, though, as the Mustang and the Chevrolet Camaro were freshened and upgraded, the look of the big Dodge has remained largely consistent since its 2008 debut. For 2015, the Challenger has received a big freshening, boasting strongly revised front and rear ends and (finally, finally, finally) a redesigned interior.
Let's talk about that new cabin first. It's basically been plucked directly from the redesigned Charger, and boasts the same seven-inch IP display. The center stack's miserable, last-gen display has been replaced by an expansive, 8.4-inch UConnect system. Material quality should see a solid boost with the new cabin, as well.
The exterior, meanwhile, sees a revised front fascia with LED halo lights, as well as new grille inserts. A functional shaker hood scoop is a must-have extra on the V8 models, while the back of the car is highlighted by a new set of LED taillights that don't use the "Racetrack" design of Dodge's other models.

Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.
