Up for sale is my own 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 SLT (4WD). This truck is the Megacab version, and is equipped with a 5.9HO Cummins diesel, and automatic transmission with overdrive. This truck is in excellent shape inside and out. I am the second owner of this truck (I purchased it in 2007 with only 11,500 miles on it) and I intended on keeping it for as long as I needed a truck this capable. I've been simplifying my life here lately and have been getting rid of the toys that I have that don't use as much as I use to. This truck was originally purchased to haul my one-ton TJ (rockcrawler) around the East Coast to various wheeling areas. Now that I've sold the Jeep and the car trailer, I just don't want to see this truck sitting unused for weeks at a time.

Factory Options:

• SLT Package
• Tow Package
• Power Windows
• Power Door Locks
• Power Rear Sliding Glass
• Fold down rear seats
• Reclining Rear seats
• ABS
• Driver/Passenger Airbags
• Keyless Entry
• Forged Wheels
• Michelin Tires

Owner Added Options:

• Amsoil Bypass Oil Filtration System (uses OEM Filter location and an additional location on Driver's side of the motor). One of the best oil filtration systems on the market
• Glacier Diesel Performance Fuel Filter System (OEM filter remains intact, adds an additional filter element between stock fuel filter and CP3 pump) Protects fuel injectors from debris; filters smaller containment particles than a stock filter.
• Two "New" Diehard Platinum AGM batteries (same manufacturer that builds Odyssey Batteries)
• Battery Mender AGM Automatic float charger wired into battery charging system.
• Autometer Gauges installed into Triple-Gauge Pod (Pyro, Trans, and Boost) Factory Match Gauges, LED back lit, with standalone dimmer
• Prodigy Brake Controller
• Uniden Bearcat CB (If you tow a lot in the middle of nowhere, this becomes an essential item when caravanning). Easily removed if not wanted.
• Tinted Windows (Professionally installed, high-end film) Tint matches factory tinted rear-windows.
• Cover Craft Seat Covers (factory seats in excellent condition, no known tears, stains or spills) A great set of seat covers. I will remove the seat covers for photos if it is a deal breaker. They are not the easiest to take off and on, but I can assure you the factory seats are in great condition. I take care of my vehicles.
• Weathertech Floor mats.
• Firestone riderite air bags.
• B&W Turn-over gooseneck ball mount in bed
• Bilstein Mono-tube Shocks
• Mopar one-piece aluminum driveshaft (bought straight from the dealer) Still have two-piece driveshaft with carrier bearing, if so desired.
• Line-X spray in bed liner
• Weather Tech Toolbox, Line-X'd inside and out.
• Geno's Garage Muffler Delete (Gives the truck a deep sound, reduces EGTs, and thanks to the Megacab's factory resonator, no drone either)

Maintained Items:

• Oil Changed every 7,500 miles with Amsoil Synthetic. (Even though not required, I change out both the Bypass Filter, and the OEM filter at each change)
• Fuel Filter changed every 7,500 miles. (both stock filter and Aftermarket Fleetguard filter, even though the fleetguard filter is rated for 15,000 miles)
• Coolant factory flushed and exchanged as recommended by Dodge (every 5 years or 60,000 miles)
• Transmission Fluid and Filter changed. Mopar synthetic fluid and Mopar Filter
• Front and Rear Differential Fluid Changed every 15,000 miles (Always replaced with full-synthetic)
• Transfercase fluid serviced at 60,000 miles.
• Tires have good tread and no repairs
• Bilstein Shocks added
• Underside of truck coated with Boeshield T-9 every year for Rust prevention. No Rust issues, just used as a preventative.
• Truck is professionally detailed every three-months (Washed, Clayed, polish, wax, and sealed). Paint is in excellent condition. Few light scratches and road chips here and there from 6-years of light use. This was by no means a work-truck, and was always treated with respect.

This truck is truly part of the family, and quite frankly I'm still a little torn on selling it. I've really had no big issues with this truck. She drives straight down the road; no vibrations, no squeaks, no rattles. She runs great, she pulls well, and is really a fantastic truck. Again, if I had more of a use for it, I'd have no problem keeping it. However, I have no trailers to pull anymore, and my position in the fire service affords me a take-home vehicle, which results in this truck just sitting wanting to be used. If you've been around vehicles as much as I have, you know the worst thing that can happen to a boat/car/truck/airplane is for it to sit unused or to simply rarely use it.  The truck has 74,000 miles and has never been flogged, abused or altered in any detrimental way. Every modification that was made to it was to increase life expectancy, not decrease it. This truck has not "rolled coal", has not seen any mud, and frankly has not even spun a tire in it's entire existence with me. Again, this is a vehicle I intended keeping for the long haul, and I really do care about keeping up with maintenance items. I've always been a firm believer in taking care of your equipment and it will take care of you ( I am in the fire-service after all).

 

I will be glad to answer any questions that you may have as I've been through this truck from one end to the other. You may find better "deals" from some of the car dealers on here, but to them these trucks are just another item they've got to shine up and sling on to the next guy. They don't really care about what they're selling you. I can tell you that I could sell this truck to my best friend, and there wouldn't ever be a cross word said about this truck years down the road.

This is a vehicle that holds its value, and rightfully so due to the 5.9HO Cummins motor (last year of the pre-emission diesels).

I also know the dealer Black Book value, as well as the general bank loan value of the truck, and I believe that the bidding for this truck will be right in line for its condition. This truck will sell to the general public for what the dealership will give me as a trade-in. That is a great deal for this truck in this condition.

I will assist with shipping in anyway that I can. Be advised that the truck will not leave my possession until payment in full has been made. That means the check clears and posts, or the cash is counted out in my hand. I have a free and clear South Carolina title in my name. Good luck and happy bidding. If you have a feedback score of less than 5, or if I feel uncomfortable in the slightest way about your profile or your history I will cancel your bid.
