This is "The" original Dodge Cummins pickup.  It is the very first year, and a very rare single rear wheel D350 (1 Ton) 2WD pickup.  I have yet to see another D350 like it on the road.  This truck is bone stock and original in nearly all areas.  It even has the original Chrysler premium sound system option with cassette player along with the original owner manuals.  The truck was repainted about 8 years ago in urethane, and looks very good as you can see.  There are many blemishes on this truck as it has been well used over the years.  I have had it for most of it's life, and I love this old girl.  The original 12 Valve non intercooled diesel is in it, and all that has been done is the water pump, and the injector pump has been stepped up a bit.  This thing has some serious power.  The manual 5 speed shifts excellent, and the clutch was replaced around 180,000 miles.  It has a Dana 70 rear end with 354 gears.  I recently changed the carrier bearings.  The suspension is pretty much original except for shocks, and brakes.  The front rotors have always chattered under heavy braking, and I could never figure out how to get rid of it.  The AC works good, and it is the original R12 system never had issues other than adding some every few years.  The tires are like new all around and very good quality heavy truck tires.  I towed a camper trailer with a 5th wheel hitch.  It is fully functional with the plug and trailer brake control.  The hitch is the old style non rocker as you can see, but it tows like a dream and gets 15 MPG with the camper on it.  This truck gets phenominal mileage.  I have a 2005 cummins with a 24V motor, and it eats way more diesel than this old girl.  She has clear title, and has had no accidents.  There is a heavy Draw tite bumper hitch receiver as well with the 4 prong trailer plug.  This is a longbed pickup with a bed liner.  The 5th wheel hitch is bolted down through cut outs in the liner.  There is no rust anywhere I have seen in this truck.  It is a California/Oregon truck as far as I know.  It has a slider rear window that works, but the lock is broken.  The seat has a hole where the driver sits.  The rear main seal drips a little oil on the garage floor.  I have always garaged this truck, although the rubber seals for the driver and passenger windows are cracked and dried out.  All the glass is good with no cracks.  The front bumper has a crease in it where I hooked a stump in revers and pulled it back slightly.  It still look fine, but a new bumper would look pretty.  The grille is excellent in all respects except for a could little dings and scrapes in the metal stripping.  There is a silver dollar size dent near the passenger side read wheel well that is barely visible.  There are some scratches I noted in the photos the best I could, but they could easily be touched up.  All the hardware works for the doors and windows.  Everything is manual crank old school which I always liked.  The driver door hinge is pretty tired, but still closes well after all these miles.  The tailgate is absolutely beautiful.  The outside latch has been partially disable so I reach in the bed to drop the tailgate.  The rear bumper is very nice chromed diamond plate factory.  The drive shaft with carrier was freshened up with all OEM parts at 200K miles.  The truck drives very well overall.  I has a little vibration at highway speed, but mostly due to the big original steel wheels.  The engine starts right up every time.I put a factory new OEM starter in it a year ago.    When it is cold it puffs a little blue for a minute then it is all black from there.  Remember it has alot of miles, but there is another 300K in this truck.  You will never kill this engine.  It is impossible.  Ask questions if I missed anything.

2014 Dodge Durango leaks ahead of NY rollout

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

Even though Chrysler will reportedly discontinue the Dodge Durango after the current model's lifespan - said to be around 2016 - that isn't stopping the automaker from improving its full-size, three-row SUV. The vehicle won't debut at the New York Auto Show until tomorrow, but images are already leaking out ahead of the embargo lift, and they show that the 2014 model is getting even more aggressive styling to go with more technology inside and out.
Dodge limited its early press shots of the new Durango to just the R/T trim level, but this new look adds a meaner look to this model with more dramatic projector-beam headlights along with a "floating" crosshair grille and a restyled fascia. At the rear of the Durango, LED racetrack taillights show a family resemblance to the Charger and Dart, while a new rear fascia adds to the styling while also allowing for an integrated trailer hitch.
On the tech side, the instrument panel looks to have been redesigned to include a standard seven-inch thin-film transistor (TFT) gauge cluster, and it also appears as if Chrysler's well-liked UConnect system has been updated with the 8.4-inch touchscreen found in other Chrysler vehicles. The 2013 model's conventional console shifter has been replaced by a rotary knob for gear selection, suggesting that there are transmission changes afoot as well. We'll have more details when the silks slide off this big boy tomorrow, so stay tuned.

Chrysler killing off the 200 Convertible, Dodge Avenger

Sun, 23 Feb 2014

When Chrysler rolled out the first-generation 200 to replace the Sebring range in 2010, it included replacements for both the sedan and the convertible. The Sebring Coupe, however, was left out of the mix. And now that the second-generation Chrysler 200 is descending upon us, Auburn Hills is paring things down even further. But this time, it's the convertible that reportedly isn't making the cut. Shame, too, since the rendering above shows what could have been quite an attractive droptop.
As our compatriots at Edmunds point out, sales of the convertible model accounted for less than five percent of overall Chrysler 200 sales, and at those numbers, the considerable cost of engineering a new drop-top couldn't be justified. With the Toyota Camry Solara and Volkswagen Eos also gone from the market (well, the VW isn't gone quite yet), the discontinuation of the Chrysler 200 Convertible leaves the affordable convertible segment largely to the sportier likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro and smaller European offerings like the Mini Cooper and VW Beetle.
The Chrysler 200 Convertible isn't the only derivative being left behind with the new model: so too is the Dodge Avenger. That will leave a glaring hole in the Dodge lineup, with nothing to bridge the gap between the compact Dart and the larger Charger. Whether the Dodge brand has any plans to replace the Avenger with another model, not to be based on the 200, remains to be seen.

How to turn a Dodge airport tug into a trail slayer

Sun, 16 Nov 2014

Sometimes, having a ton of fun requires takes a ton of work. Just nine days before the so-called Ultimate Adventure 2014, the folks behind 4-Wheel & Off-Road had 40 tasks to complete in order to turn the ratty truck pictured above into a machine that could excel on treacherous off-road trails while still being able to handle highway jaunts. Much of process behind the build was chronicled on the latest episode of Dirt Every Day.
The team's vehicle started life as a 1990 Dodge tug truck that spent part of its life hauling around airplanes. The builders hung on to the Cummins six-cylinder diesel, but they tossed out practically everything else for the project, with some seriously heavy-duty replacement parts for the transmission, transfer case, axles and a whole lot more. The process was certainly a ton of work, but the end result looks like a fantastic crawler.
Sure, it might have been easier to bring a truck that was already prepared, but where would the fun in that have been? Stay tuned until the end of the video for a few glimpses of the completed Dodge and peek at some of the punishment it goes through.
