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!

Fiat/PSA's dominance in small vans hangs up EU's merger approval

Mon, Jun 8 2020

BRUSSELS — EU antitrust regulators are concerned about Fiat Chrysler and Peugeot / PSA's combined high market share in small vans and may require concessions to clear their $50 billion merger, people familiar with the matter said. The companies, which are seeking to create the world's fourth biggest carmaker, were told of the European Commission's concerns last week. If Fiat and PSA fail to dispel the European Commission's doubts in the next two days and subsequently decline to offer concessions by Wednesday, the deadline for doing so, the deal would face a four-month-long investigation. The EU competition enforcer, which has set a June 17 deadline for its preliminary review, declined to comment. Fiat was not immediately available for comment while PSA had no immediate comment. Hiving off overlapping businesses, usually a regulatory demand to ensure more competition, could prove tricky for the carmakers because of the technicalities. Fiat and PSA are looking to merge to help offset slowing demand and shoulder the cost of making cleaner vehicles to meet tougher emissions regulations. The deal puts under one roof the Italian carmaker's brands such as Fiat, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Maserati and the French company's Peugeot, Opel and DS.

All hail the Hellephant, Mopar's 1,000-horsepower crate engine

Wed, Oct 31 2018

It's shocking to say this, but the all-powerful Dodge Demon looks weak now that Mopar has unleashed the Hellephant. This crate motor makes 1,000 horsepower and 950 pound-feet of torque, and its name is a combination of the nickname for the old 426-cubic-inch Hemi V8 and, obviously, the Hellcat. This monster is a 426-cubic-inch version of the current third-generation Hemi V8 topped by a supercharger similar to what the Hellcat line packs. Everything is cranked up to — or perhaps, past — 11. The engine block is made of aluminum and weighs 100 pounds less than the equivalent iron block. All of the internals are forged. The stroke and bore have been increased. The supercharger produces 15 pounds of boost and displaces 3 liters; more than the 2.7-liter blower on the Demon and the 2.4-liter blower on the Hellcat. And as big and powerful as it is, it will still rev to 7,000 rpm. It's a thoroughly monstrous motor, but shockingly, it won't be that difficult to live with. For one thing, Mopar will offer a complete kit to get the engine up and running, including an engine computer, wiring harness and drive-by-wire throttle. It also runs on 93-octane pump gas. That's especially amazing considering the Demon engine "only" makes 840 horsepower, and that's on race gas with 100+ octane fuel. It also has us wondering what the Hellephant could make on racing fuel. The Mopar folks did say that there's room to add more power. Pricing wasn't announced for the Hellephant engine. The Hellcat crate engine retails at $19,350 directly from Mopar, so it's safe to assume that the Hellephant will go for more. The installation kit with the computer and harness will be an extra charge of likely over $2,000, based on the Hellcat kit. The engine and the kit will be available in the first quarter of 2019.
