Up for sale is a good friend of mines 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 with the very popular 12V Cummins Diesel Engine.  The truck is in overall good shape and the engine runs VERY strong. The paint is in pretty good shape, however the passenger side bed rail has some areas where the paint is chipping.  Please refer to the pictures to see it in detail.  The exterior is also in pretty good shape with some small dings, chips, and dents. Since this has been a South Florida truck, theres no rust. The interior is really clean with the typical cracked dash that just about every 1998 ram has. The tires appear to be in good shape and look to have good tread left on them.  I've included pictures of the tires as well.The trucks odometer says the truck has around 124,000, we are unsure if this is working correctly but knowing the trucks usage I'd probably guess the milage is anywhere from 124,000 up to 160,000-170,000.  Probably not a big deal seeing that these engines are known for being indestructible.  The truck starts right up every time  and the engine runs strong.  I've included some links to videos that will show you how the engine sounds at start up, in idle and just driving around.  You will see for yourself, the engine is running really well with no smoking, dripping fluids, or wierd noises.  There are 3 lights on the dash that are currently on, Brake, ABS, and Airbag.  I do not know the cause or reason for these lights.  The truck drives around just fine and it brakes dont seem to have any problems while driving around. 

There is only one issue currently with the truck.  The only other issue is that it feels like theres a slight delay for the transmission to engage while driving only right after starting up the truck.  After a moment or two the transmission feels like it engages and the truck will drive just fine.  Im not sure why it does this but I just want to describe the truck to the best of my knowlege.  Other than that its a Great running strong truck.
Ive done my best to describe this truck in my description in photos.  We have clean title in hand. Truck is sold as is without warranty.  Please feel free to email me with any questions.  Truck is located in South Florida and we will be willing to work with a shipper, but buyer pays all shipping charges.  Method of payment accepted is Cash or wire transfer.  If you would like us to consider other methods of payment, you must contact me before auction's end. 
Good luck bidding

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat gets brace of new videos

Wed, 21 May 2014

Yesterday's big announcement focusing on the new Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat had plenty of stuff going for it - information, pictures and the rabid enthusiasm that always accompanies such an eagerly anticipated reveal. What it was lacking, though, was a proliferation of videos of the new model.
Sure, yesterday's news came with one clip, but today, Dodge has come through with five videos. We've arranged them in what we think will be the most entertaining order, covering the powertrain, before moving on to exterior and interior design, then on to a full CGI dissection of the SRT Hellcat before capping things off with a piece on the non-supercharged Challenger SRT392.
Take a look below for all five videos, then head into Comments and let us know what you think.

Chrysler recalling 278,222 trucks and SUVs over bad rear axles

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

Chrysler has issued a recall of 278,222 light trucks and sport utility vehicles here in the United States. The reason: bad rear axles. Specifically, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the rear axle pinion nut may lack a necessary adhesive patch, which could cause the nut to loosen. If this happens, the axle can lock up, which could cause all sorts of havoc on the road.
This is an expansion of the rear axle recall announced in October of last year, where 44,300 Ram 1500 and Dodge Dakota models were being called in. At that time, 12 accidents had been reported due to the faulty axle pinion nut.
Affected vehicles include Ram 1500 trucks from the 2009 to 2012 model years, Dodge Dakota models from the 2009 to 2011 model years, and both the Chrysler Aspen and Dodge Durango SUV twins, both from the 2009 model year only.

Dodge pulls New Girl and The Office stars for new Dart spots

Wed, 06 Aug 2014

Dodge is hoping that a heavy dash of humor helps it move some more units of the Dart with a hilarious ad campaign called Don't Touch My Dart. The spots star actors Craig Robinson, best known for his role as Darryl on The Office, and Jake Johnson from New Girl as neighbors and friends playing a game of one-upmanship over Robinson's new car. Johnson is envious of the ride and just wants to touch it.
The ads are pretty funny if you're a fan of somewhat absurdist humor, and Robinson has just the right amount of over-the-top seriousness to really make the commercials work. They have kind of a Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote vibe with Johnson constantly in inept pursuit of what he wants, but he clearly isn't getting it.
The first four spots in the campaign are already online, but according to Dodge this is just the beginning. The company says that it's planning about 24 different versions of these ads in various lengths to play on TV and online. You can check out the ads titled First Scratch, Birdhouse Police Garage Door and Voice Touching below, along with the brand's release about the new ads. There's also a pretty good gag on its YouTube page with Robinson protecting his Dart.
