Here is my 2004 Dodge Dakota 4x4. It starts right up & seems to run fine. I bought it earlier this year & fixed quite a few of the mechanical & body issues it had.
I replaced the rear axle as the one in the truck was apart & was missing parts. The left front fender, hood, grille, bumper & upper tie bar were also replaced.

Some other parts that were replaced:
Front shocks, upper ball joints on both sides, side marker light, both airbags, wipers, tires were replaced with a much better set of Cooper Discoverer A/T's & the steel rims that came with it were replaced with a used OEM aluminum set & new lugnuts.

Overall its' a pretty nice truck. It does have a few dings, scratches & a couple dents. The worst dent is in the right rear box side behind the wheel.

Interior looks OK, seats are in good shape & not ripped at all. There is storage under the rear seats in the extended cab part of the truck (just fold the seats up). A/C blows cold, heat works well. There are some fingerprints on the headliner. It has hand crank windows & manual locks. Does not have cruise.

4WD engages with no problems, 5 speed trans shifts like it should; no grinding or any other noises. Does not have overdrive.

Glass is all good; no cracks in the windshield, sliding rear window.

Now for the bad stuff...& there isn't a ton:
It has a steering fluid leak. I took it in & was told the steering rack is leaking from the top. I don't know if it's just a seal or the whole rack needs to be replaced.
It needs a driver's side outer CV boot; current one is zip-tied.
Back up lights & horn don't work. Check engine light is on because of a bad O2 sensor.
Parking brake shoes need to be replaced & cables adjusted.
Driver's door panel is cracked along some of the edges.
Rear bumper has some bends in it.
I do have new parking brake shoes & O2 sensor along with front sway bar bushings that go with the truck.
May need an alignment. It handles OK but it could be better.

I've driven the truck about 30 miles so far on gravel roads, to town & on the freeway doing 75mph, etc. & it did OK.

Selling AS-IS with no warranty expressed or implied.

Please ask any questions before bidding.
Located about 1 hour north of Detroit, Michigan, 48002 zip code.

***Just to be clear, when you look at the auto-check, yes it was crashed in 2012 by a previous owner. & I did buy it from a scrap yard & fixed it up.***

Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.

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.

Dodge performance trio thrashed on Roadkill

Tue, Apr 14 2015

Of all the shows that Motor Trend does, Roadkill is probably the last one we'd pick to evaluate the latest performance automobiles. That's not a slight against David Freiburger or Mike Finnegan, who host the show: they're certified gear-heads and the go-to guys when it comes to hot rods, rat rods and anything grungier than it is shiny. But as exemplary as they are of Detroit muscle, the Charger Hellcat, Challenger Hellcat and Viper are also shiny new pieces of metal. Still, since it will now be sponsoring the show, someone at Dodge apparently thought it would be a good idea to hand Freiburger and Finnegan the keys to the company's top performance models. So to ring the best out of them, they solicited help from some of their colleagues at MT, gained access to a closed-down air strip, devised as many ways as they could to destroy the tires, and proceeded to set about doing exactly that. Watch the grin-inducing mayhem unfold in the half-hour clip above. Related Video:
