'06 Dogde Magnum Sxt - Reliable, Comfortable - No Reserve on 2040-cars

Year:2006 Mileage:135381

Virginia Beach, Virginia, United States

Virginia Beach, Virginia, United States

I am the second owner of this car. I purchased it in August of '07 from a Dodge dealer in Florida. It had 23K on it. I was working for a large electronics manufacturer at the time and had to carry a large amount of equipment (to show, not delivery) all over 6 states. Trust me, this car can carry a ton of stuff! The mileage is high on the car but, 95% of it is highway mileage. It has always been professionally maintained and adult driven. This is an AMSOIL car and even though my mechanic told me I was wasting my money by doing so, I would have the oil changed every 5000 miles. Needless to say, the engine neither burns or drops oil. The transmission and rear end oil are also AMSOIL. Each tank of fuel was treated with LUCAS fuel treatment.

Original equipment:

  • 3.5L HO (High Output) fuel injected V6
  • Automatic transmission
  • Traction control
  • Heated Leather Seats
  • 8-way Power Driver Seat, 6-Way Power Passenger Seat
  • Power Adjustable Pedals
  • Cruise Control
  • Air Conditioning
  • AM/FM/CD

Added :

  • Pillar mount gauges were added shortly after I bought the car (Voltage/Oil pressure/Water temp). Gauges are multicolor GlowShift.
  • American Racing "Rogue" painted custom wheels. No, not 22's. 17's (same size as original equipment)
  • Magnaflow Performance cat-back SS exhaust system
  • Billet Pistol Grip shift lever
  • Tinted windows
  • Vent Visors
  • SRT8 honeycomb grille inserts 
  • Power Slot Performance brake rotors
  • Hawk Performance HPS (High Performance Street) pads
  • New battery
  • New tires (again, original equipment; Goodyear Integrity) @ 128K miles
  • Current Inspection (11/13)

Things I know to be wrong with the car or issues;

  • The paint on front of the car shows wear from the highway mileage (even though the car has always been kept clean and waxed, Chrysler paint just isn't what it could be!)
  • A stitch is the drivers seat is pulled. It has been like that for a number of years. Since it never spread I never had it repaired (can be seen in picture)
  • Small body damage next to right side tail light. Some very nice person hit it in a parking lot and left. I replaced the taillight.
  • Door ding in passenger door
  • Glowshift water temp gauge stopped working. When the gauges were installed the mechanic kept the original dash mounted temp gauge working and it is operable. These gauges can be purchased for <$50.
  • Indicator lights in drivers side seat heat switch work intermittently. The heat works, just the lights don't sometimes.

The mileage will change before the end of the auction. I plan to take it on a short trip (approximately 200 miles round trip) on Tuesday just to give it a run. Frankly, I wouldn't hesitate to jump in this car and drive across the country. Aside from bringing the car home from Florida, it has made numerous 12 - 14 hour non-stop trips and it has always offered a comfortable ride, and NEVER let me down. This car has always been adult driven (I got it when I was in my 50's) and has never been abused.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Travis Pastrana signs with Dodge for another year, brings partner Bryce Menzies [w/video]

Sun, 14 Apr 2013

Dodge and SRT Motorsports announced that the Dodge Dart will be returning for its sophomore season of the Global Rallycross Championship with a two-car team fielded by Pastrana Racing. Travis Pastrana drove his GRC Dart to victory lane in the fourth race of the car's inaugural season, and his race team is looking for even more success with the addition of off-road racer Bryce Menzies behind the wheel of the second car.
The 2013 GRC season kicks off on April 21 in Brazil with plenty of dirt-spewing, ramp-jumping action. Scroll down for a video from the cars' main sponsor, Red Bull, and a press release from Chrysler.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango to lose color options temporarily

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

In the market for a Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango? Well, if you fancy a more expressive color for your new SUV, you'd better get your order in, or plan on waiting until well into 2015.
The SUVs will be limited to just four monochromatic shades - black, white, silver and gray - until at least February, thanks to an upgrade to the paint shop at the two vehicles' Jefferson North factory. For the Grand Cherokee, that means it's losing more than half its color palette while the Durango is dropping two-thirds of its color catalog.
The loss of colors is inconvenient, but the upgrade will have a slightly bigger effect on the overall supply of SUVs, as Chrysler will need to end its relentless build pace at the factory for a three-week shutdown starting on December 22. The good news for fans of the SUVs is that once the work is completed, we should see a gradual expansion of the color palettes for both the Durango and Grand Cherokee, beyond even what's offered now.

Dodge Challenger Scat Pack adds power and noise, with a warranty

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

If you want to go fast, there's certainly nothing wrong with the Dodge Challenger SRT8. With 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque for 2014, there's certainly not much to complain about. But what if you want something more aftermarket in flavor? There's no shortage of options, but while turning to the tuner world will make your car plenty fast, that extra power won't just shred rear tires, it'll torch your warranty, as well. That's where Dodge's Scat Pack comes in.
With three stages of mods for both the 5.7 and 6.4-liter Hemi V8s Challenger (as well as the 5.7-liter Charger and, soon, the four-pot Dart), the Scat Pack cars give drivers all the power, aggression and noise of a heavily modded aftermarket car while maintaining the piece of mind provided by the Dodge warranty.
Power gets bumped up to 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque with the 6.4-liter Scat Pack, while the 5.7-liter can provide up to 58 hp and 47 lb-ft of torque to add to the stock engine's 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet. It's the latter engine that can really get some work done, with upgrades ranging from the mundane - intake and exhaust - to the racy, like the ported heads and high-flow headers.
