Taylor, Michigan, United States

Up for auction is my 2002 Dodge Ram 1500. I am the second owner of the vehicle. I have owned it since December of 2013. I got the truck from my uncle who purchased it new. He put a lot of highway miles on the truck but he always maintained it very well. Which goes to show considering the condition the truck is in for the mileage. I am an ASE certified technician and have been servicing the truck for him throughout the years. I am selling the truck because I have way to many vehicles and I only drive the truck 2-3 times a month. I thought I would be using it more but i'm not.

Exterior:

Truck has some rust spots. I took photos of the area's so you can see them. It is actually not to bad compared to most dodge trucks of these years. There are some some scuffs and scratches on the body of the truck but no major dents or scratches. I don't believe the vehicle has ever been in an accident. The chrome on the bumpers is in pretty good condition but has some peeling on the bottom of the rear bumper that is not visible. The passenger side mirror has been replaced with a cut piece of glass. The topper and bedliner are in good condition. Truck has a hidden hitch and has a working 7 pin trailer connector.

Interior:

The interior is in good condition. Non smoker. No tears in the seats. The middle seat/arm rest functions as normal. All interior accessories work. All gauges work. No warning lights are on. The truck has a nice area behind the seats that can store a lot of cargo. The tire changing tools and jack are there. Comes with Dodge factory floor mats. The dash has 2 cracks in it. (see photos).

Powertrain/Drivetrain:

The engine and transmission are in great condition. Engine is strong and transmission shifts smooth. There is a very minor leak at the transmission output shaft seal. The engine seals are in good condition and there are no coolant leaks. The rear pinion seal also has a minor leak. Air conditioning and heat work excellant!

Steering and Suspension:

The tires are in excellant condition and are all matching set. Comes with full size spare. The front suspension is in pretty good shape. The front lower ball joints have a small amount of play as well as the passenger front wheel hub. The shocks have been on the vehicle for quite some time now and may want to replace in the future, but the truck rides good.

As you can see the truck is in pretty good condition. It would make an excellant work vehicle or farm vehicle. The 8ft bed with the extra tall topper is great for hauling cargo. Honestly I want keep the truck but does not make sense for the amount of money I spend on insurance and registration versus how much I use the truck.

Buyer is responsible for shipping and picking up of vehicle. I will take a $500 deposit within 24 hours of the sale with cash due at pick up or will take full payment thru paypal.

Does the future of Fiat-Chrysler include Dodge?

Thu, 13 Jun 2013

Wards Auto reports the future of Dodge is looking uncertain. Fiat has more or less laid out it's game plan for the next few years, and while the Chrysler, Fiat and Jeep lines are set to receive plenty of love, Dodge isn't so lucky. Fiat has already hobbled Dodge significantly by splitting off the brand's trucks into a separate Ram line.
Wards says that after the Avenger rides off into the sunset early next year, Fiat-Chrysler won't replace the model, leaving a gaping midsize hole in the Dodge lineup. The report also cites unnamed sources as saying that at least two other current Dodge products will move to the Chrysler line.
One of those could very well be the Grand Caravan. Chrysler has already made it clear that it plans to trim redundancy between its minivan offerings, but it has yet to clarify which other vehicle could sail under the Chrysler banner moving forward. Either way, such changes to the product line would theoretically leave Dodge with just four models.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).

Chrysler recalls AWD 300, Charger, Ram 1500 over ZF transmission

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

What do the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Ram 1500 all have in common? Yes, they're all Chrysler products, and two of them are based on the same platform. And we're sure you could find more similarities between them all, but the common trait we're looking at here is that, while they all come standard in rear-drive form, they're also available with all-wheel drive. And it's the transmission in those models that's the subject of the latest recall notice issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The output shaft on the eight-speed automatic transmission supplied by ZF to Chrysler for the AWD versions of the 300, Charger and Ram 1500 is apparently prone to fracture. That in the end could leave the vehicle without power and could, according to the NHTSA investigation, increase the chance of a crash. The vehicle could also roll away if even if left in Park without the handbrake applied.
That's why Chrysler is calling in 4,194 examples of those three models from the 2013 model year. Dealers will be responsible for inspecting the transmissions and, where necessary, replace the entire unit. See the full recall notice below for all the details.
