2005 Dodge Ram 1500 Slt Quad Cab 5.7 Hemi 4x4 on 2040-cars
Taunton, Massachusetts, United States
|
Up for sale is my 2005 Ram 1500 Quad Cab 4X4 with the 5.7 Hemi under the hood and 95,403 miles. The truck has been well maintained and never beaten, I've hauled my family and ski mobiles with it for the past several years. It has a few dings and minor dents but looks nice and shiny with 20” chrome rims. The truck is all stock, nothing is modified. In the past 1000 miles the front tires were replaced and it had new platinum plugs installed. The battery is on its second year and the brakes are still OK but will need to be done in the next several thousand miles. Same for the rear tires, they're OK but put new ones on when you can. The exhaust is fine, shocks and suspension OK, the interior is good with only minor wear and no rips or spills.
Why am I selling? For cost cutting reasons I am shrinking my fleet. I have a mini van daily driver, a Jeep and a Road Runner in the garage so the truck simply hasn't been getting much use this year. The van is better on gas and I simply don't have the time to keep up with it or the money to keep it registered and insured. It is currently unregistered; I do have a clean title in hand. Come see it and you'll be impressed, feel free to run a Carfax on it, too. I had a very minor accident a couple of years ago where I backed into the door of a parked import at slow speed (5mph). The door on the import was dented but it literally did nothing to the truck at all. My insurance fixed the other car but the truck was unharmed. It really looks as nice in person as it does in pictures.
The catch: none but in the interest of full disclosure the check engine light is on. I threw a code reader on it and it's telling me that both oxygen sensors on the driver's side bank are faulty. I priced them out and they're about $20 to $30 each so no big deal. Talking to a mechanic friend of mine he said that if it isn't the sensors it could be the catalytic converter and I priced that out to about $150 or so. If you can turn wrenches yourself or have a mechanic that can do it then you'll have a very nice truck for the money, far less than you'll find anywhere else. It has been maintained but not garaged and it hasn't been on the streets since before Halloween. I hate to see it go but I haven't the time or money for it so first person with cash takes it. No personal checks and any bank checks have to clear before I hand over keys or title. No foreign sales, either, so if you're foreign Royalty that has a deal just for me then you shouldn't waste your time. It's out of the way so it can stay until you have registered it to drive it home. $500 deposit via PayPal due within 48 hours of sale. This truck is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early should it sell. |

Weekly Recap: New bosses try to jump-start Cadillac and Lincoln
Sat, 26 Jul 2014
Both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
It's ironic that Cadillac and Lincoln got new bosses within days of each other this month. It's also a commentary on the fact both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
2015 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack
Fri, 24 Oct 2014We all knew That Kid. As a freshman, he was a big kid, overweight but surprisingly strong. Still, he was often picked on for his size. Then, he chatted with the football coach, who convinced him that his true calling was on the team's offensive line. After a season on the freshman squad and a summer of two-a-days, this mild-mannered, husky high schooler returned for his sophomore year as a big, imposing, solid piece of muscle. Needless to say, the same bullies that picked on him were praying he'd forgotten about them as a 10th grader.
That's the V8-powered 2015 Dodge Challenger. It arrived on the scene with a max of 425 horsepower and a bit of a weight problem. It completed its proverbial freshman year with a nice 2011 refresh, where the SRT8 was bumped up to 470 hp, but it still had some work to do.
Enter 2015, and fresh off three months of constant burpees and wind sprints, the newest Challenger is as big and powerful as it's ever been, but it's now got poise and potential, and my goodness, it's fun in a way that Dodge's muscle car has never been.
What's the deal with Chrysler demanding colleges crush their Vipers? [w/video]
Fri, 07 Mar 2014Students and teachers at a Washington community college are up in arms following an order from Chrysler that it must destroy the pre-production Dodge Viper that was donated to the school's automotive technology program ten years ago.
The Viper in question is said to be the fourth off the production line, based on its VIN, and has had its emissions controls disabled, allowing its ten-cylinder engine to produce 600 horsepower, according to a report from Yahoo! Autos. As one of the first Vipers ever produced, the school's AT instructors claim it could be worth $250,000 in a museum, while a local news report purports that Jay Leno once tried to purchase the car, but the sale was prevented by Chrysler.
As pointed out by our friends at Autobytel, though, there are a lot of things in this story that don't quite add up. Immediately noticeable from the news report embedded below - which shows the car at South Puget Sound Community College - is that the car in question is not a 1992 model. When the Viper went on sale in 1992, it was only available as an RT/10 with a (flimsy) soft top, like the red car shown above. But the car featured in the report from KING5 News (inset image) is clearly a hardtop Viper GTS, which didn't enter production until 1996. And even if, as reported by a local newspaper, the hardtop featured is a prototype, it doesn't explain the lack of another iconic feature of the first Vipers - their distinctive side pipes. This kind of pokes holes in the school's argument that this is the fourth Viper to ever roll down the line. At best, this appears to be a pre-production Viper GTS.
