 1996 Dodge Ram 2500 2wd with 283,000 miles

Legendary 12 valve Cummins 5.9L Turbo Diesel bulletproof 1 million mile engine
I have owned this truck almost 5 years and never had an engine issue. This truck to my knowledge has never been tuned or had the injection pump played with.

Inside is very clean, no rips, tears, or smells.

I have taken very good car of this truck over the years, in the last 7,000 miles I've had:

The transmission went through, brand new torque converter, full flush with new fluid and filter. Shifts perfect. $1000

All new front brakes, rotors, calipers, pads, everything. Stops excellent. $800

New rear drums around 15,000 miles ago.

New alternator (lifetime warranty) and 2 brand new batterys - truck fires right up

New radiator - runs very cool

New speed sensor in the rear diff with brand new fluid.

New ball joints in the front end, steering is tight.

All the tires have very good tread and are 10 ply

New serpentine belt.

The flat bed is a 8.5 L x 7 W with gooseneck and class 3 hitch. This truck can tow anything you put behind it or you can drive it empty and get 20mpg all day long. Great all-around truck. I added the flatbed at around 240k and have only pulled a gooseneck for about 3k miles total, so this truck hasn't been worked hard.

This truck is very solid mechanically, theres just a few small things I haven't yet gotten around to fixing:

Theres a loose connection or a bad vacuum line somewhere, I'm not getting any air out of the dash. The A/C does work very well, just need to find the bad vaccum line.

There is some chipping of the paint I need to repair.

The brake and abs light is on, brakes seem to work fine. Maybe a wheel speed sensor is bad.

I pulled the front seats to clean the carpet, the seat sliders got a little out of wack in the process and could use a little attention. Also need to get a bolt for the drivers side seat belt.

It's been sitting for a few months and could use a new fuel filter

Bondo work on the lower passenger door could be better, can be easily fixed.

Just little stuff, I may have time to address soon, I'm just not sure.

This is a great truck that has been taken care or, don't miss out on a rare dodge 12valve. These things just seem to keep going up in value. Clean title.

Price is firm. serous inquires only

Chrysler recalling 780k minivans over fire risk

Fri, 09 May 2014

Chrysler is recalling 780,000 of its Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2010 to 2014 model years due to the possibility of circuits overheating, which can lead to a fire. Of the 780,000 total vans being recalled, Chrysler estimates that 644,850 are in the US, 106,980 are in Canada, 8,009 are in Mexico, and 20,638 are in other markets. All of the affected vehicles were built between August 25, 2010 and October 31, 2013.
Chrysler's engineers discovered that beverage spills or exposure to moisture (from rain, snow, car washes, and the like) were linked to circuits shorting in the window switch assembly. Short circuits can overheat, and thus, cause a fire.
Chrysler will contact owners and let them know when they may schedule service, at which point, the window switches will be replaced. In the interim, the automaker says that owners may visit their dealers after May 14 to have the switches disconnected.

2014 Dodge Durango Ron Burgundy ads already have 2.7M views [w/videos]

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

The guy who once made the Dodge Stratus a punchline of sorts is now a spokesman for the 2014 Dodge Durango, and the move appears to be paying off handsomely for Dodge. Will Ferrell, acting as 1970s-era TV news personality Ron Burgundy, has teamed up with the automaker for co-branded advertisements between the refreshed 2014 Durango and Ferrell's new movie, Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues. Like Ferrell's fictional character, the ads are outrageous, flamboyant and a bit random. They're also successful: Automotive News says that more than 2.7 million people have already watched the videos since they debuted on October 5.
Those views are similar to the numbers that AN's top viral video of the year (e.g. Volkswagen's "Get Happy" Super Bowl ad) received, but there will eventually be as many as 70 videos comprising the Burgundy-Durango spots. According to the report, the videos were created primarily as a viral campaign online, although some are airing on television, too. For Dodge's part, the cost of the videos was significantly lower than a usual television campaign thanks to the fact that Ferrell wasn't paid for the spots since they were made in cooperation with promotional efforts for his new movie.
We've already posted a few of the videos in our previous post, but scroll down for several more - and head over to Adweek for a little added background on how these spots came to be.

Dodge bringing revamped Challenger, Charger to Big Apple

Mon, 07 Apr 2014

The 2014 New York Auto Show will be a big one for Dodge, as the brand has announced that refreshed versions of the 2015 Challenger and 2015 Charger will debut at the show. This is a particularly big deal for the two-door Challenger which, visually, has remained unchanged since is burst back onto the scene in 2008 and helped reignite the muscle car wars.
As a sort of hint, this announcement was accompanied by the picture you see above - the Super Bee logo in the Challenger's new instrument cluster. According to Dodge, the New York debut of a new "powertrain combination" - possibly with the high-output Hellcat V8 - will leave enthusiasts "abuzz."
As for the Charger, Dodge is promising a full redesign that should be a significant departure from the blunt, angry looks of the current model. At this point, there's no indication that the Challenger's new powertrain could be fitted to the Charger, although considering how mechanically similar these two vehicles have been, it doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility.
