Up for auction is this 1 family owned and NO accidents 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 SLT crew cab with the 5.9 HO cummins turbo diesel. It is a ONE family owned truck, purchased new by the father. It has 255k miles on it, and has been well taken care of. The heaviest thing it pulled was an 18' enclosed trailer, never gooseneck or 5th wheeled. The Body is above average for the miles, only some minor dings and some wear on the tailgate, which still opens and closes fine. One ding in rear bumper. The engine is perfect, idles smooth, runs perfect, no smoke and no blowby. Engine and trans are original to the truck and still perform great. You can drive this truck home anywhere. The trip computer shows it averaging 24.7 mpg. I am calculating more like 23 at the pum, which is still incredible for a heavy duty truck! The interior is above average for an 05 with this mileage. It does have moderate to heavy wear on the driver's seat which is to be expected. It is still very comfortable and there are seat covers over the front seats. The front drivers seat is power and works great. All gauges work properly, and the dash has NO cracks. The tires are 295/70/17 and are mud terrains with about half tread remaining. Wheels are factory premium aluminum wheels. New parts within the last 4 months are as follows: front brakes, power steering pump, 2 new batteries, new alternator, and all new front suspension bushings-tie rods, control arm bushings etc. almost $2000 worth. It is ready to roll. ANyone who knows these trucks knows 255k is just broke in for a 5.9 HO common rail diesel. These arent bogged down with emissions crap like the 2007+ 6.7 engines, so these are the most sought after of all diesels. You will be hard pressed to find a better truck for the money. THis is an SLT, not a stripper work truck model. Options include Power windows, locks, driver's seat, upgraded aluminum wheels, tow package, trip computer, cruise, tilt, fog lights, center console with double storage compartments, etc. Please serious bidders only I am listing this truck at NO RESERVE! You will not find a better deal, please bid to win. That being said, i reserve the right to end this auction at any time for any reason, as truck is for sale locally. Truck sold as is, no warranty expressed or implied. Please feel free to ask with any questions. Thanks and good luck!

Thieves still love older Hondas and pickups most, says NICB [w/video]
Wed, 20 Aug 2014No one wants to have their car stolen, but a new study by the National Insurance Crime Bureau has some bad news for older Honda owners and pickup drivers. Fortunately, it has better news for drivers overall. The group is reporting that according to preliminary data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, thefts were down 3.2 percent in 2013 (versus 2012) to fewer than 700,000 cars. That's the lowest figure since 1967. That's also less than half of the peak of over 1.66 million thefts in 1991. "The drop in thefts is good news for all of us," says NICB President and CEO Joe Wehrle. "But it still amounts to a vehicle being stolen every 45 seconds and losses of over $4 billion a year."
Honda drivers might not find it such good news with older Accord and Civic models topping this year's theft study. Toyota and Dodge can't really celebrate, either, with two models each on the list, as well. Overall, this year's list was split evenly between foreign and domestic models, which were mostly pickups.
The 10 most likely vehicles to be stolen in 2013 were:
2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has 707 glorious horsepower [w/video]
Tue, 01 Jul 2014Hold onto your butts. "600-plus horsepower" is what we were told to expect from the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT with its 6.2-liter supercharged Hellcat V8 engine. But as we've just learned, those were incredibly conservative numbers. Dodge has officially announced that the range-topping Challenger will hit the asphalt with 707 - seven hundred and seven - horsepower, making it the "most powerful muscle car ever."
Of course, 707 hp is only part of the story, as the Hellcat has also been confirmed to produce 650 pound-feet of torque. All that power will run exclusively to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission that differs from other Challengers. The new gearbox, 8HP90 (rather than the 8HP70) is "upgraded to handle the extra power and torque," says Dan Reid, SRT's manager of product design and motorsports.
We certainly hope you're prepared to spend a ton of money replacing tires.
Watch 1,414-hp worth of Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat do stereo burnouts
Tue, 08 Jul 2014When Dodge announced that the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat would produce 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque from its supercharged 6.2-liter V8, automotive enthusiasts were shocked. The company had promised us that it would be powerful, but no one expected for the muscle car to post even larger numbers than the range-topping Viper.
Car and Driver recently got ahold of two new SRTs and decided that the only proper way to show them off was by lighting up the rears in stereo. With a combined 1,414 horsepower, the pair of them make burnouts from the Hellcat V8 look as easy as breathing. The tires start spinning at the slightest provocation and just don't stop. If you buy one of these, it looks like you and the employees at the local tire store are going to be on a first name basis.
Scroll down to watch these two Hellcats to lay down enough smoke to alert the local hook and ladder trucks.
