 1996 Dodge Ram 2500 2wd with 283,000 miles

Legendary 12 valve Cummins 5.9L Turbo Diesel bulletproof 1 million mile engine
I have owned this truck almost 5 years and never had an engine issue. This truck to my knowledge has never been tuned or had the injection pump played with.

Inside is very clean, no rips, tears, or smells.

I have taken very good car of this truck over the years, in the last 7,000 miles I've had:

The transmission went through, brand new torque converter, full flush with new fluid and filter. Shifts perfect. $1000

All new front brakes, rotors, calipers, pads, everything. Stops excellent. $800

New rear drums around 15,000 miles ago.

New alternator (lifetime warranty) and 2 brand new batterys - truck fires right up

New radiator - runs very cool

New speed sensor in the rear diff with brand new fluid.

New ball joints in the front end, steering is tight.

All the tires have very good tread and are 10 ply

New serpentine belt.

The flat bed is a 8.5 L x 7 W with gooseneck and class 3 hitch. This truck can tow anything you put behind it or you can drive it empty and get 20mpg all day long. Great all-around truck. I added the flatbed at around 240k and have only pulled a gooseneck for about 3k miles total, so this truck hasn't been worked hard.

This truck is very solid mechanically, theres just a few small things I haven't yet gotten around to fixing:

Theres a loose connection or a bad vacuum line somewhere, I'm not getting any air out of the dash. The A/C does work very well, just need to find the bad vaccum line.

There is some chipping of the paint I need to repair.

The brake and abs light is on, brakes seem to work fine. Maybe a wheel speed sensor is bad.

I pulled the front seats to clean the carpet, the seat sliders got a little out of wack in the process and could use a little attention. Also need to get a bolt for the drivers side seat belt.

It's been sitting for a few months and could use a new fuel filter

Bondo work on the lower passenger door could be better, can be easily fixed.

Just little stuff, I may have time to address soon, I'm just not sure.

This is a great truck that has been taken care or, don't miss out on a rare dodge 12valve. These things just seem to keep going up in value. Clean title.

Price is firm. serous inquires only

2017 Dodge Durango GT Brass Monkey: A funky winter drive

Fri, Mar 24 2017

The 2017 Dodge Durango is one of our favorite sport utility vehicles. It has power and style and it stands out in a segment that is filled with vanilla-flavored people haulers. We recently had a Durango GT outfitted in Brass Monkey trim – highlighted by its 20-inch burnished bronze aluminum wheels - and took to the back roads of Michigan for an extended drive. The snow was flying. The temperatures dropped. It was muddy. The unpaved roads, pocked and rutted, were jarring, even though the forested setting was serene. The Durango had no trouble with any of it. Watch our video review for the complete experience.

Made in America | These cars top the most-American list

Mon, Dec 5 2022

The car with the most American/Canadian content for 2022 is ... cue the drumroll ... the Lincoln Corsair, in both standard gasoline-fueled and plug-in hybrid guise. Both versions of Lincoln's compact luxury crossover earned a score of 86 — due to 72% of its parts coming from one of the two aforementioned countries — in the American University Kogod Business School's annual "Made in America Auto Index." Last year's leader, the 2021 Ford Mustang GT (when equipped with a manual transmission) fell all the way to 22nd place with a 50% rating due to a switch in transmissions sourced from Mexico. In case you're interested, that puts Ford's red-blooded American ponycar below vehicles like the Kia Sorento, Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class SUV and Lexus ES. If you're wondering how an American car that's assembled within the borders of the United States could rank below a model from a Korean, German or Japanese automaker, well, we'll let Kogod explain: "The components of the index are based on research performed by the Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor Michigan regarding the economic value of different components of auto manufacturing. For example, the highest ranked cars are made by U.S.-based manufacturers using American engines and transmissions, and with a high AALA percentage of U.S. and Canadian parts." There are 25 total vehicles listed in the Top 10 (there are lots of ties this year). Here's the full list: (1) Lincoln Corsair: 86 (1) Lincoln Corsair PHEV: 86 (2) Tesla Model 3 Long Range: 82.5 (3) Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray: 81 (4) Chevrolet Colorado: 80.5 (5) Jeep Cherokee Latitude 4x4: 80 (5) Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk: 80 (5) Tesla Model 3 Performance: 80 (5) Tesla Model Y: 80 (6) Dodge Durango Citadel: 79.5 (6) Dodge Durango Blacktop AWD: 79.5 (7) Honda Passport Trailsport: 78.5 (8) Ford F-150 2.7L, 3.3L, 5.0L: 77.5 (8) Ford Ranger: 77.5 (8) Ford Bronco automatic: 77.5 (8) Tesla Model S: 77.5 (8) Tesla Model X: 77.5 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 3.6L: 77 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee L LTD: 77 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 3.6L: 77 (9) Chevrolet Camaro automatic: 77 (10) Honda Odyssey: 76 (10) Honda Ridgeline: 76 (10) Honda Pilot: 76 There's a whole long list of reasons for the above scores, with seven criteria that include factory location, headquarters location and where its various bits and pieces come from.

Help find Kenny Wayne Shepherd's stolen 1972 Dodge Charger

Mon, 11 Nov 2013

Judging by his collection of cars, blues musician Kenny Wayne Shepherd (shown above, at left, with fellow musician George Thorogood) is an enthusiast of classic Dodge muscle cars, so it's no surprise that he is an active member of Mopar-related online communities. When his 1972 Dodge Charger turned up missing from an LA-area warehouse last Wednesday, Shepherd took to the forums of Moparts.org in an attempt to get the word out in hopes of recovering his custom classic.
The Charger was stolen along with four other vehicles, and Hot Rod reports that two women have been taken into custody since - but still no word on the car. With its blacked-out appearance (including custom Foose wheels), this car is definitely hard to miss, but Shepherd also said that the car might be even more distinguishable now due to some body damage that may have occurred as it was being driven from the warehouse lot. Shepherd's website has a full gallery of images for this '72 Charger, which also has a modern 392-cubic-inch V8 under the hood and a six-speed gearbox pulled from a Viper.
If you're in the LA area and happen to see this car, Shepherd asks that you call the LAPD West Valley Division at 818-374-7611. Here's to hoping this one-of-a-kind Charger turns up unscathed.
