For sale is a 2000 Dodge Ram Cummins Diesel Dually 4x2 Automatic.  This has been a great truck and time to sell it since have other trucks.  It has been a really good truck and am the second owner.  The previous owners had the truck in their fleet and used it primarily for going to automotive events.  They kept it indoors and maintained it.  It was maintained by a Cummins Technician for Chrysler in Auburn Hills, Mich.


The truck runs great and pulls nicely like nothing is behind it.  It pulls a 28' enclosed trailer with a car and parts in it with no problem.

The exterior color is burgundy/maroon. 

It does have the Cummins Diesel.  The mileage is 185,000 miles which a great deal was from travelling out of state and highway miles.  Always use AMSOIL for oil changes and constant changing oil at regular intervals.  The diesel does have a custom powder coated valve cover as shown.  There are no modifications to the engine...no aftermarket performance parts.

The trucks interior is nice.  The steering wheel does have wear on the top of the steering wheel.  The truck is equipped with radio controls on the steering wheel...change radio stations or increase or decrease volume on back of the steering wheel.  I do have a nice used replacement that will go with the truck or if I have time will change it out.  The truck does have dark gray leather. There are no significant tears.  The driver seat is worn but not bad.  Headliner does have some spots of dirt.  Dash has a crack.   Center console.  The rear bottom seat can fold up and does have the plastic tray storage.  Rear sliding glass and latch is still there to secure it from opening.  

New side tow mirrors that fold out when towing

It does have cruise control...really don't use it.

It does have A/C but sometime it gets stale when driving.

Heater works well and new thermostat installed.

The front and rear bumpers are new and have been replaced in 2012.  All of the bumper plastics were replace also.  The driver side gray bumper plastic is not a great fit from the aftermarket company.  Doesn't tuck well on the driver side into the black plastic. Nice shine on chrome!

New front chrome grille and emblem.

New headlights:  passenger and driver side headlights as side lamps are brand new. 

The truck did not have any damage when I got it.  I replaced the bumpers since they were dull,had some rust, and dents.  I replaced the headlight because they were foggy.

Also new front driving lamps in bumper.  Never connected them...will need to be connected.

There is a brand new CURT extra heavy duty hitch unlike the weak factory one.  It has the connection for the 8 plug and is in working condition.  It also does have a brake control.

It does have the fifth wheel rails in the bed, but no other attachments.  The bed is a 8 foot box and does have a Pendaliner brand plastic bed liner.

Replaced all four shocks with Monroe shocks winter 2013.

Replaced all Moog Ball ball joints upper and lower.  The ball joints were not cheap and Moog is a great brand.  Each ball joint cost over $100.00.  So $400.00 in ball joints were replaced early 2013.  I also replaced the rotors and front brakes.  The rear brakes were replaced last March 2012.   Unfortunately, while mechanic was installing the ball joints, the ABS wires were cut.  So this throw the brake light and ABS lights on the dash.  I think you can get the left and right wires for about $100.00 for the pair.

It does have a rear sway bar and it recently was powder coated black and new sway links were installed.

Bosch dual batteries.

The tires:  brand new 235 75 16 BF Goodrich Commercial T/A is currently under the truck as the spare tire.  I purchased it new in July 2013.  I used the spare which is a Goodyear on the driver side front.  I was waiting to get new tires, but decided to hold off since I am selling the truck.  The new 235 75 16 BF Goodrich Commercial T/A cost $175.00 new at Discount Tire.

Condition of tires:

Front Driver side left:  was spare tire Goodyear..tread like new
Front Passenger side Right:  purchased new earlier this year 235 75 16 BF Goodrich Commercial T/A.

Rear dually tire; all rear tires are 235 75 16 BF Goodrich Commercial T/A 

Driver side outer: needs replacement
Driver side inner:  less than half tread wear

Passenger side outer:  needs replacement
Passenger side inner:  less than half tread wear

The flaws: 

There are no major rust issues.  These trucks are know to have rust on the rockers and doors.  The driver side door does have rust on the bottom.  It is weak where the rust shows in the pictures.  The rocker is solid underneath and all other doors do not have any rust.  I was going to replace the driver side door, but never had the chance to find a driver side door.  The driver side doors are different on a quad cab than a regular cab or extended cab.

Rear tail gate three lights do not work.  It was working when last pulled the tail gate off.

 It does have scratches throughout truck.  However, there are no major dents.

The driver side rear quad door does not open.  I never opened it up to look at it.  Might be a loose rod or something.  That started to happen June of 2013.

Windshield does have a chip on the passenger side.

There is a long scratch groove.,..yellow of plastic showing on the driver side rear dually flare.

The map light console on roof, right passenger press light does not work.  Sometimes reading of location will be hard to read.

This truck is one of my favorites and describing it as best as I can.  If you have any questions, send a message through Ebay.  The truck can be seen in Sterling Heights, Michigan.  It is a suburb of Detroit.  You are welcome to inspect this vehicle at reasonable time.

Buyer must pay a deposit of $300.00 by PayPal within 48 hours of close of auction.  Remainder is due three days close of auction...no PayPal.  Cash is due upon pick up!

Dodge Demon's A/C helps its supercharged Hemi make more power

Thu, Mar 30 2017

Staying cool is one important key to performance. Simply, more air means more power, and cool, dense air is better than hot air. While forced induction might help make copious amounts of horsepower, turbos and superchargers produce heat. Intercoolers help, but the new Dodge Demon and its supercharged Hemi need a bit of an extra boost. In Drag Mode, the Demon's engine commandeers the car's air conditioning system to help chill things out. The Demon will have the first production application of a liquid-to-air charge air cooler chiller system. Literally, the car's air conditioning system is used to cool the air going into the engine, dropping temps by up to 45 degrees Fahrenheit. Dodge claims the system helps achieve "temperatures previously unattainable by pressure-charged street-legal production vehicles." As cool as this may sound, the technology isn't new. Ford had a prototype system in the early 2000s called SuperCooler, though that system never made it to production. While the Demon's system doesn't have a super cool name like the one from Ford, the pair essentially work in the same way. In theory, it should have the same effect as a bottle of nitrous. According to Autoweek, Ford's system bumped up the output of the F-150 Lightning by about 50 horsepower. Turns out that air conditioning isn't always a huge power suck. Related Video:

Dodge recalls 27k Darts for bracket that can disrupt transmission module

Thu, Sep 17 2015

Dodge is recalling 27,520 examples of the 2013-2015 Dart with dual-clutch gearboxes. The mounting bracket for the transmission control module can affect the part's operation and cause the compacts to suddenly shift into neutral. According to the automaker, 23,688 of them are in the US, 3,376 in Canada, 5 in Mexico, and 451 elsewhere. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports these examples carry build dates between February 24, 2012, and June 16, 2015. There are also no reports of accidents or injuries. Because of the way the bracket is mounted, the part can put too much force on the control module's circuit board and cause it to shift out of gear. The engine and airbags remain operable if this happens. To fix things, dealers will install a redesigned mount and replacement module. Related Video: Statement: Mounting Bracket September 14, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is recalling an estimated 23,688 cars in the U.S. to replace certain control modules and mounting brackets that may contribute to a loss of motive power. The Company is unaware of any related injuries or accidents. An FCA US investigation prompted by a small number of warranty claims discovered a control-module mounting bracket may apply too much force and disrupt the function of a circuit board within the module. This condition, unique to certain cars equipped with dual dry-clutch transmissions (DDCT), may cause the transmission to shift into neutral. However, the engine remains on and the vehicle's air-bags, as well as other safety features, are unaffected. The condition may also be preceded by the illumination of a dashboard warning light. Customers who observe this are urged to contact their dealers. The campaign is limited to certain 2013-2015 Dodge Darts equipped with DDCTs. Additional vehicles will be recalled in Canada (3,376), Mexico (five) and outside the NAFTA region (451). Affected customers will be advised when they may schedule service, which will be performed free of charge. Service will entail installation of a redesigned mounting bracket and replacement of the control module. Customers with additional questions may call the FCA US Customer Information Center at 1-800-853-1403.

Ford leads top searched-for car brands on Google in 2014

Mon, Dec 22 2014

With less than two weeks until 2014 takes its final bow, anyone and everyone is looking back on the past 50 or so weeks to see how they stacked up. For search giant Google, that means its time to check out its annual Trends report. Besides the most popular search term (the late, great Robin Williams), the most searched for gadget (the iPhone 6) and most searched for disease symptoms (quite worryingly, Ebola took the crown here), we have the most searched for automaker. With the long-awaited sixth-generation of one of America's most iconic vehicles, the Mustang, and a ground-breaking update for the US market's perennial best seller, the F-Series, it should come as no surprise at all that Ford was Google's most searched for automaker in 2014. Jeep captured second place, while Dodge, took third. We suspect introducing a pair of cars with 707 horsepower had something to do with that bronze medal... Scroll down to see the rest of this year's most searched for automakers, and then head into Comments and let us know if you're surprised by any of these. This content is hosted by a third party.
