This is a 1981 Dodge W250, 4WD, long bed pickup. It was purchased new by the Columbus, Georgia Metropolitan Airport in 1981. It was part of their fire rescue dept. until 1999. At that point it only had 8,000 miles on it, and now has only 36,500 miles. It had safety lights, a water tank and hose system mounted in bed while in airport service. It has a few dings to be expected for a 30+ year old truck and the safety yellow paint is faded. The body is rust free except for about an 8"X8" section of drivers side floor. The engine is a 360 4 barrel, and is the original. We just put a new Holley 600 on it, but the original Thermoquad carb is included. The 3 spd auto trans works great, as does the 4 wheel drive. The truck has A/C and it is all there, just doesn't blow cold. It has the big Dana front and rear differentials, and they are geared pretty low, I'm gonna say 4.10-4.30. It really crawls good in 4 low. This truck had NOT been beat on in the woods or dumped off into a lot of mud. You could restore this truck, use it as a good hunting rig, or it is also a killer candidate for a older Cummins diesel swap. This truck has NO title, as it was a Georgia truck and they don't require titles for anything older than 1986. If your state requires a title, that is on YOU. The VIN # is clean. If you are local to this area, you will remember seeing this truck parked near the fence at the airport, or running up and down the runways. $200 non refundable deposit due at auction end, via PayPal. You must come get the truck. We drive it once a week locally, but haven't done any long distance in it. Thanks for looking.

1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup
Fri, 18 Jul 2014Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.
Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris
Thu, 12 Dec 2013Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.
Ron Burgundy returns for four more Dodge Durango ads
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Dodge has released several more of its Anchorman 2-themed commercials, starring Will Ferrell as inept newsreader Ron Burgundy. The four spots, one of which is a sequel to a previous commercial, follow roughly the same pattern as previous ads, with Ferrell's Burgundy misunderstanding or generally making a fool of himself. For some of the ads, though, Burgundy is selling more than just Durangos - the red-suited host of San Diego's most watched news broadcast shilling the entire Dodge lineup.
We've included all four ads down below, and you can also hope over to our original posts to see some of the older commercials. Oh, and if you're getting tired of these - we aren't, aside from the Do-dge spot - just remember that Ferrell reportedly filmed around 70 ads for Dodge.
