1970 Dodge Charger on 2040-cars
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States
1970 Dodge Charger R/T One owner car for 44 years! This is an ALL numbers matching real '70 Charger R/T 440 Magnum console automatic car. Factory FE5 Rally Red, Black interior, Black top and Black tail stripe, power steering, bucket seats, console, AM radio, rallye wheels and cruise control added in 1972 (paperwork included). Other than one older re-paint from back in the '80's this is an unrestored all original car right on down to the original carpet! Paint looks good but is showing its age in some areas and there is a small amount of rust showing in the lower 1/4's. Frame rails are solid and as well as the trunk floor which is just showing some surface rust on it. The underside is rock solid but it has a coating of dirt/dust from years of the original owner driving on dirt roads. The interior is in overall great shape but does have a couple splits in the drivers seat and the headliner has some wear. As an unrestored car there is some aging and wear but overall this is a very nice original car. The car had been stored inside and was just sitting for the last few years so I replaced the gas tank and sending unit, the gas lines were cleaned and flushed and a new fuel filter added. The carb was opened up and cleaned and the oil and filter were changed. The car starts and runs great! The brakes are a bit soft and the exhaust and tires are older. The car runs and drives good but probably could use some maintenance to be 100% reliable and fully road worthy for long trips. Again, this is an all numbers matching car where all of body numbers match the original engine numbers, the original transmission numbers, the original door VIN sticker, the original VIN tag, the original fender tag and the title. It also has the original carburetor, distributer, radiator, heads, intake, exhaust manifolds, air cleaner and more. Included is the original dealership invoice/bill of sale, the original cancelled checks from when the original owner put $100 down on it and then paid it in full new, the original owners manual, the original warranty paperwork and some older receipts

Defiance Dodge Charger, saving Earth from aliens isn't clean work [w/video]
Fri, 08 Feb 2013You'll be forgiven for not having heard about the TV show Defiance - it actually hasn't aired its first episode yet. The new science fiction show about an alien war against Earth in the near future seems like a perfect fit for the SyFy channel, and, apparently one that Dodge saw as a slick marketing opportunity for its Charger sedan.
Here in Chicago, Dodge has given a large corner of its show stand to the Defiance Charger, a car that won't be skipped by any Mad Max fans in attendance at this year's show. The Charger boasts one hell of a gnarly patina under a confusingly welded cage of tube steel, as well as window bars, a grille guard in front, and big, knobby truck tires. There aren't any obvious guns or turrets on the outside of the vehicle, so we can only hope that the characters driving it go well-armed.
Look for the Charger to make its star turn in Defiance when the series premieres on SyFy on April 15 at 9:00 PM EST. Also, there's said to be a Defiance video game in the works, too, so you may get a chance to steer the burly Dodge for yourself. Find a trailer for the show, below, as well.
2013 Dodge Durango R/T
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Not too long ago, Chevrolet got itself into some trouble by throwing the SS badge on just about everything it produced, so I've always been a little hesitant about the seemingly excessive use of the R/T nameplate on Dodge vehicles. For the 2013 model year, every model in Dodge's lineup has an R/T trim level from Dart all the way up to the Durango. Although the R/T name used to signified models made for road and track, I doubt anyone would be delusional enough to assume the Durango - and some of the other models wearing this badge - are suited for any sort of track duty.
Still, when this 2013 Dodge Durango R/T rolled up for me to drive for the week, I couldn't help but take in its big, mean and imposing stance. Sure, if I had my choice of buying any of the Dodge R/T products, the Charger and Challenger would be my top picks for sure, but it's easy to say that the Durango would be a close third - far above the R/T versions of the Avenger, Journey and Grand Caravan.

NHTSA investigating Chrysler for airbags, ignition switches
Wed, 18 Jun 2014Chrysler is being targeted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in a pair of actions that focus on over 1.2 million Jeeps, minivans and crossovers.
The first is a "preliminary investigation" that focuses on an airbag issue afflicting the Jeep Commander built in model years 2006 and 2007 and Grand Cherokee from 2005 to 2006. In total, 700,000 vehicles could potentially be affected. It's not entirely clear what the airbag issue is, with The Detroit Free Press simply stating that the restraint systems in the affected Jeeps may be "faulty."
The other investigation is what's called a "recall query" and it covers a problem that General Motors should be familiar with. In this case, there could be a problem with the ignition switches of 525,000 vehicles, ranging from 2008 to 2010 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans, to the 2008 to 2010 Dodge Journey crossover. Again, it's not entirely clear what sort of behavior prompted the 32 complaints that NHTSA has received on these vehicles.
