Hello. Up for auction is a beautiful 2008 Dodge Ram Mega Cab SLT 1500 4X2 with the 5.7-Liter HEMI V8 Engine and 5-speed Automatic Transmission. Exterior color is Inferno Red Crystal Pearl Coat Paint and interior is a gorgeous Medium Slate Grey. One senior owner with 29,301 original miles (mileage may go up slightly). Vehicle is in great condition with bright paint and a very clean interior. No accidents and will be 100% on any report. Clean/clear Arizona title. Owners manual and all documentation that I have will be included.

KBB is at $25,037

Interior: Never smoked in and has never seen snow or harsh weather, as it has been mostly garaged since bought brand new. No rips, tears, or stains on the seats, nor any cracks in the dash pad. Dash cover is in like new condition and has been on since 2008. Everything electrical works (6-way drivers side seat, radio, CD player, MP3 player, 12v auxiliary power outlet, A/C controls, defroster, all 4 windows go up and down like new, instrument gauges all work, rear sliding window, horn, windshield wipers, cruise control, cargo lamp, headlights, taillights, 3rd brake light, directional blinkers, interior lighting, power adjustable brake and gas pedal, dimming mirror with outside temp and direction, etc). Front passenger side seat manually adjusts easily. Rear seats have actually only been sat in a couple of times and fold down easily for more storage. Massive amount of leg room in the rear. All glass is clear with no cracks. Door panels are clean (no cracks, stains, etc), weatherstripping is soft, and door jambs are clean. Headliner is like new and the truck still has the "new vehicle" smell. Floor mats are original and in good shape with most of the wear being on the drivers side.

Exterior: Paint is clean and in great shape with no fading. Chrome is nice and shiny with no pitting. No rust obviously as this vehicle has never left Arizona. All emblems have been removed except the factory SXT stickers on the rear. Being as this was my fathers vehicle and he was older, he scratched the passenger side rear quarter (see picture) and lightly backed into a light pole on the drivers side (see picture). I replaced the drivers side taillight because it was cracked, and bought paint from the Avondale Dodge dealership to touch up that area. A very small dent remains that is not noticeable until close viewing. Headlights are bright and clear. Front mud flaps were installed after getting it home from the dealership so there aren't any stone chips along the side of the vehicle.  Engine bay was always kept clean in the garage. Antenna delivers great sound quality to the radio. Rear of the truck is pretty clean and a bed/tailgate mat was installed shortly after the vehicle was purchased to protect it. This is a truck and it was used a few times to haul some things from Home Depot so there are a few scratches on the bed. Vehicle used to have a soft tonneau cover on that was removed (no holes were drilled...it installed with clamps). License plate lights work as they should. Please remember this vehicle has been driven nearly 29,500 miles and has small imperfections.

Mechanical: Engine oil and filter have been changed every 2,500 miles or less with Castrol GTX 5w20. A new battery was installed in June of 2013. Air filter replaced approximately 5,000 miles ago. Tires are all matching Michelin LTX MS2 265/70R/17. These tires were installed at 19,900 miles and have a 70,000 mile warranty with lifetime balancing (documentation will be provided to new owner for this warranty). No fluid leaks anywhere. No warning or check engine light. Brakes stop quickly with no pulsing, pulling, squeaking, or any noises, and I was recently told there is 65-70% of the pads left, on all 4 wheels. As this truck has been lightly driven, the steering and whole suspension is still very tight and goes straight down the road. Transmission shifts smooth to every gear and this vehicle has never carried/towed anything heavier than a few bags of cement, some lumber, and a Christmas tree. A/C blows hard and is ice cold in the summer with the heater being very hot in the winter. Vehicle has never overheated or had any drivability issues.
Repairs: In June of 2011, at 9,750 miles, the vehicle was taken to the Avondale Dodge dealership in Avondale, AZ for a "J10" recall involving the windshield wiper motor. Service was completed and I will send the documentation of this to the new owner. Also at this time, my father did not believe the A/C was blowing cold enough so he had them check this, as well. They found the system was 6oz low on freon so they evacuated the system, let it set in vacuum to check for pressure loss, it held vacuum, so they charged the system back up to specifications and found no leaks. There have been no issues since. Leak dye was also added to the system so in case of any future freon leakage, the new owner will know exactly where it's coming from without paying for more freon and more dye.
In June of 2013, at 21,057 miles, the vehicle had a "service engine" light illuminate and go off within a few driving cycles. It was taken to Larry H Miller Dodge in Avondale, AZ and they found no DTC's in the system. While the truck was there, they performed a power train inspection. I will include this documentation to the new owner, as well.
In August of 2013, at 23,002 miles, the vehicle had a "service engine" light illuminate and stay on so the vehicle was taken back to the dealership that it was purchased from, Jim Click Dodge in Tucson, AZ. It was for a code P0456 (evaportative emissions system - small leak detected). The ESIM switch was replaced and PCM was updated to latest software. For good measure, I replaced the fuel cap as well (was told another common problem is the original gas cap gasket). No service engine light since and no issues. I will include this documentation to the new owner, as well.

Story: You may be asking yourself why I am selling this truck with such low mileage and in such good condition. As mentioned above, this was my fathers vehicle and he has since passed away. Originally, he bought this truck because of its size, power, and comfort (he was a big guy). He had dreams of towing a boat behind it but unfortunately, he ran into multiple health issues that eventually took his life. Neither myself nor my mother need a vehicle of this size anymore so, it is now up for sale to someone who could use it for what it was intended to do. It truly is a nice vehicle and I firmly believe the new owner will be very happy with this purchase. Please do not hesitate to contact me with questions, concerns, or the need for additional pictures of something specific. I will answer questions and picture requests as quickly as I possibly can. The clear Arizona title is solely in my mothers name and I am selling it for her. Please check my feedback, 5 star seller ratings, and bid with confidence.  photo BlueBook_zps7d203e89.jpg  photo 20140423_205835_zpsa690ee65.jpg  photo 20140423_145002_zps773c6ddb.jpg  photo 20140423_145030_zps2b947ddf.jpg  photo 20140423_150738_zpsbe38d458.jpg  photo 20140423_150753_zps01798810.jpg  photo 20140423_150818_zpsd283b55f.jpg  photo 20140423_150848_zpse1bd1d34.jpg  photo 20140423_150950_zps64f89d4d.jpg  photo 20140423_151011_zpsf67855be.jpg  photo 20140423_151037_zps73dd7d8f.jpg  photo 20140423_151055_zpsd24c737f.jpg  photo 20140423_151126_zps781232ba.jpg  photo 20140423_151142_zps8764d1d6.jpg  photo 20140423_151215_zps7aa6f543.jpg  photo 20140423_151229_zpsddc0c226.jpg  photo 20140423_151248_zpsd20446ae.jpg  photo 20140423_151330_zps0398382c.jpg  photo 20140423_151357_zps916140b6.jpg  photo 20140423_151436_zpse5a6d78f.jpg  photo 20140423_151444_zps2cc14bf7.jpg  photo 20140423_151521_zps4a7d4b94.jpg  photo 20140423_151530_zps099f9433.jpg  photo 20140423_151543_zps8d0c5e83.jpg  photo 20140423_151607_zpsa4f9c262.jpg  photo 20140423_151628_zpse7e32b91.jpg  photo 20140423_151638_zps88b6aff5.jpg  photo 20140423_151647_zps55937985.jpg  photo 20140423_151658_zps5bac0f35.jpg  photo 20140423_151716_zpsb88198aa.jpg  photo 20140423_151749_zps0d0ba3db.jpg  photo 20140423_151815_zps1986bf21.jpg  photo 20140423_151822_zpsebd161e9.jpg  photo 20140423_151851_zps41f4e935.jpg  photo 20140423_151904_zpsbe393bad.jpg  photo 20140423_151937_zps6be6bd7e.jpg  photo 20140423_151941_zpsb0f2d8af.jpg  photo 20140423_151948_zpsf51747fa.jpg  photo 20140423_152004_zps8a7068c3.jpg  photo 20140423_152013_zps9f4a750d.jpg  photo 20140423_152025_zpsd634dece.jpg  photo 20140423_152032_zpsac4e48d2.jpg  photo 20140423_152109_zpsb937babd.jpg  photo 20140423_152134_zps3aa6f9cd.jpg  photo 20140423_152159_zpscb4cba6e.jpg  photo 20140423_152240_zps75f81e8c.jpg  photo 20140423_152249_zps2e949a7a.jpg  photo 20140423_152315_zpsb1c03a96.jpg  photo 20140423_152401_zps914e0561.jpg  photo 20140423_152414_zps4caaff14.jpg  photo 20140423_152447_zps7e2b4db8.jpg  photo 20140423_152515_zpsada62e80.jpg  photo 20140423_152540_zpsccfdf837.jpg  photo 20140423_152550_zpsfd0663da.jpg  photo 20140423_152643_zps72419d8c.jpg  photo 20140423_152656_zpsfd88664d.jpg  photo 20140423_152705_zps46aa3498.jpg  photo 20140423_152717_zps48d43196.jpg  photo 20140423_152729_zps08df0e15.jpg  photo 20140423_152736_zps7b3a90d8.jpg

Hellcat motor 'fits like a glove' in the Wrangler and Gladiator, says Jeep

Tue, Apr 9 2019

Just like "technically correct" is the best kind of correct, "technically possible" is the best kind of possible. Specifically, it's technically possible to slot a Hellcat crate motor into the Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator, as confirmed by Jeep brand chief Tim Kuniskis. Speaking to Australian media last week, Kuniskis went on to say that "everybody" keeps asking him if the supercharged, 6.2-liter Hellcat V8 fits in the Wrangler and Gladiator, and that the answer is yes. "It fits like a glove," said Kuniskis. But — there is a but — the fitment is so close for comfort, it makes the combination one that Jeep can never produce. "There's no air space around the engine [...] so you have no crush space, you have nothing that can be used to absorb energy in a crash. It's not a problem to put it in — other than emissions and fuel economy — except it would never pass any crash tests, and that's a problem," as Kuniskis told Drive. However, since the Hellcat is now out of the bag, it's probably only a matter of time until hobbyists with access to these engines will start putting them into Wranglers and Gladiators. And with the time-honored piece of advice — just don't crash into anything — it'd be a combination worth seeing and hearing. Just to throw it out there, a "Hellcrate" engine costs less than $20,000 new. Kuniskis also said that Jeep is "gauging interest" for the J6 concept, one of the Easter Jeep Safari concepts that were just revealed. "[The J6] is just a concept at this stage. But that doesn't mean we're not going to gauge interest for it." However, he said justifying its production is apparently "tough."

2019 Dodge Durango raids the SRT parts bin for updates

Fri, Jul 13 2018

Fiat Chrysler will squeeze some extra excitement from the upcoming 2019 Dodge Durango, by providing some modest updates. They include giving the three-row SUV new colors and broadening the use of elements of the Durango R/T and SRT performance models, among other upgrades when it goes on sale in the fall. It'll still be offered in five models — SXT, GT, Citadel, R/T and the SRT — with the same 295-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 as the standard engine. For 2019, the GT model will get the SRT and R/T's performance front fascia and LED fog lamps. It also has the option of an SRT-inspired hood with center air inlet duct and two heat extractors. On the Citadel models, second-row captain's chairs will be standard. There's also a new integrated trailer brake on models equipped with the Trailer Tow Package. New 20-inch wheel designs are available on various trims, and an available 825-watt, 19-speaker Harman Kardon sound system for the Citadel, R/T and SRT. Three new exterior color options appear, too: F8 Green, Destroyer Gray and Reactor Blue. SRT buyers can now opt for red seat belts and lightweight Brembo brakes with two-piece rotors. Its Hemi V8 still makes 475 horsepower as it did last year. The R/T model, meanwhile, continues with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8, also available on the Citadel, making 360 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque. Sepia leather seats are a new option. Order books are now open, but there's no word yet on price. Related Video:

Bonhams to auction Carroll Shelby's prototypes and personal cars

Fri, Apr 6 2018

Fans of Carroll Shelby will want to make their way to Greenwich, Conn., this June, because Bonhams will be selling a great many cars from the man's personal collection. And many of them are the first of their kind, marking important milestones in Shelby's career. One of those important cars is a 1982 Dodge Charger prototype, which might not look as impressive as a Cobra, but it was important in that it was the first car on which Shelby collaborated with Chrysler. That car led to the first Shelby Charger, as well as other special small Chryslers including the GLH Omnis and Chargers (GLH standing for "Goes Like Hell"). In fact, the first Charger GLH-S (Goes Like Hell S'more) is also part of this collection. There are even some prototypes up for auction that never resulted in a production car, such as a Shelby modified Dodge Ram. That one is probably our favorite: the gold ram hood ornament, the huge pentastar in the grille, the double-barrel truck horn on the roof. It's wonderful nonsense. Of course it isn't just Chryslers going up for sale. There are a couple of GT500 and GT350 Mustangs in the mix from a variety of years. Perhaps most interesting is the very first Shelby Series I, Shelby's ill-fated roadster designed from the ground-up by the Texan's company. Unlike the other early Series I models, Shelby's had a supercharger, which led to a supercharger option being offered later. You can check out the full list of cars below, and pictures of each one in the gallery at the top. The auction will happen on June 3, and every vehicle offered has no reserve, so they'll all be sold for whatever price is shown at the drop of the gavel. 1927 Ford Model T 1931 Ford Model A 1935 Chrysler Airflow Sedan 1955 DeSoto Hard Top 1966 Shelby GT350 Convertible 1967 Lincoln Continental Convertible 1968 Shelby GT350 1969 Shelby GT 500 previously owned by Jackie Cooper Jr. 1969 Shelby GT 500 1982 Shelby Charger Prototype 1983 De Tomaso Pantera 1983 Dodge/Shelby Pickup Concept 1987 DeTomaso GT5-S 1987 Dodge CSX Serial #1 1987 Shelby Charger GLH-S Serial #1 1987 Dodge Shelby Lancer Serial #1 1988 Dodge Shelby Dakota Prototype 1989 Dodge CSX VNT Serial #1 1965 Shelby Cobra 427 Continuation 1999 Shelby Series 1 Serial #1 2008 Shelby GT 500 KR 2011 Shelby GT 500 Super Snake Aurora Race Car Related Video: Featured Gallery Shelby Collection View 72 Photos Image Credit: Bonhams Chrysler Dodge Ford Auctions Performance Classics shelby
