I am selling my 1998.5 Dodge diesel with 249,000 miles on it. I have only owned it since September, and did not know if I needed a pickup, but now I do know that I need one, so I am going to upgrade to a newer Dodge diesel, that is why I am selling it.
I bought it from a seller on craigslist, who owned it for a couple of years, and he did not have much maintenance history on it, except an aftermarket lift pump, so I took it into my local Dodge dealer and had them go through it and they spent about $1000 on a new starter, new brakes all the way around, a new tie rod, new driveshaft seal, oil changes every 5k, tranny fluid change. And, two new rear tires. So I have put 10k miles on it since September and it has performed flawlessly. Tons of power, I set it on 6 on a Smarty programmer and it gets 19mpg at mixed hwy, city, and 55-75 mph on the roads with an average of 1000 pounds of cargo in it. It has 249,000 miles on it, clear title in my name.
No smoke, noises, or other defects or problems. I take it to my local Dodge dealer as I use this for running around the Midwest on work and cannot afford to have it go out of service. I have all records since I have owned it.
The interior is in great shape except for the tear in the drivers seat. Bed has the usual dents and dings. A few dents and dings on the truck. Very good condition for its age. No rust or rot except a little on the door bottoms.
I really like this truck and hate to sell it except I really need 4 doors and the wife likes something a little newer. I would not hesitate to driver this anywhere across the US or wherever.
I take ebaying seriously and expect you to do the same. I want this truck to be what you need, so if you have a concern or question Ill answer it honestly. Truck is for sale locally so I may need to close auction early if it sells. I take paypal and cash or cashiers checks from US Bank, Chase, Wells Fargo.
Email questions through ebay, thanks for looking and good luck bidding.

NHTSA investigating power modules on Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans
Mon, 29 Sep 2014The Center for Auto Safety is officially petitioning the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to begin scrutinizing alleged problems with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on about 24 Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans. The advocacy group claims that the part's failure can cause affected vehicles to stall or not start at all. NHTSA is still looking into the accusations and deciding whether a full investigation is actually warranted.
The CAS petition claims at least 70 TIPM failures, but according to NHTSA, six of the complaints are for models that don't have the modules. In 34 of the reported cases, the vehicles refused to start, and in 17 of them the engine stalled. There were also two allegations of smoke and one of a fire. However, none of these affected airbag deployment or resulted in a crash.
This petition isn't the first TIPM-related problem for Chrysler Group. A recent report in the New York Times alleged that it found 240 complaints potentially related to the issue on NHTSA's website alone. In September, the automaker also recalled 230,760 examples worldwide (188,723 in the US) of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango replace the fuel pump relay circuit inside of the TIPM-7 with one external to the unit. The original part could allegedly cause the models to stall without warning. Even earlier, the company also recalled about 80,000 examples of the Jeep Wrangler and Dodge Nitro in 2007 to have the module reprogrammed.
Is Mopar readying a special-edition Dart for Chicago?
Sat, 26 Jan 2013Chrysler has released the above teaser of a limited-edition Mopar 2013 model that will be unveiled at next month's Chicago Auto Show. Although the automaker doesn't announce what vehicle will get the Mopar treatment, closer investigation of the seats and center console suggest that this car will be a special version of the 2013 Dodge Dart.
This will be the fourth Mopar model in as many years, following on the heels of the Mopar 2010 Challenger, Mopar 2011 Charger and the Mopar '2012 300. There are no details for the Mopar '13 Dart, but we do see that the car will retain the signature black-and-blue color scheme as past Mopar editions. Like these previous models, we expect production of Mopar '13 Dart to be limited to just 500 units.
Scroll down for Chrysler's press release teasing the new Mopar model, and we'll be sure to bring you plenty of live images from the show floor in a couple weeks.
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.
