· This hard
to
find 2003 Dodge Ram 3500 Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Cargo van. Equipped
with the reliable and powerful 5.2L V8 engine and
automatic transmission. This is a one owner fleet maintained former utility vehicle. ONLY 65K Miles! BEWARE
of people selling vehicles with untested/unfilled CNG systems. CNG system functions. This vehicle has
been filled with CNG and test driven 30+ miles. This vehicle is super economical to drive with CNG priced under $1.00 a gal in many areas. State tax credit still available (Utah and other states that offer tax credits).
What is CNG???
Compressed Natural Gas or CNG, is one of
nature's best untapped energy sources. Unlike fossil fuels, it is
constantly produced by the earth and can also me synthesized through
chemical processes. Cyber_lot. The technology has been around for decades
but until recently has been kept in the closet by big oil! It is one
of the fastest growing alternative fuel sources and unlike biodiesel and
ethanol (E85), is a viable replacement for petroleum. Within the next 10
years 90% of gov't fleets will be CNG and civilian population will follow over
the next 20 yrs.
Why should I buy a CNG/Bi Fuel
Vehicle?
- SAVE MONEY! CNG is about 1/3 less than reguar
unleaded and more stable in price. AS LOW AS 99 CENTS PER GAL IN
SOME AREAS!
- CNG burns with practically no emissions compared to petroleum fuel so
each mile you drive helps the environment....THINK
GREEN
- CNG is safer (less volatile) than gasoline as it has a higher
ignition temp, 1200 deg vs 800 deg.
- CNG poses little if any environment risk of
contamination and in the event of an accident where tanks are breached, it
evaporates into the air with no spill Cyber_lot
- CNG fill stations are growing more and more each
day. Check the links below for fill station locations across
the US.
- You can fill up at home using a Phil Fuelmaker device
if you have a natural gas line. Cyber_lot No more trips to the gas
station. Tax deductible.
- Most states allow you to drive solo in the HOV lane.
- CNG is not corrosive like gasoline and wears
MUCH easier on a motor. Most CNG fueled engines require oil changes
less frequently and sparkplugs last almost forever.
Overall engine life is usually significantly extended. Cyber_lot
- Unlike hybrid electric/gas cars, there are no costly batteries
($6000) to replace
- Unlike hybrid electric vehicles, the CNG drivetrain is the same as
the gasoline counterpart and can be serviced by most mechanics.
Cyber_lot. Only the CNG fuel system requires specially trained
service technicians.
- There may be tax credits/deductions available for
CNG vehicle owners and for the purchase of a Phil Fuelmaker (check with
IRS and state tax authorities)
- Be the first person in your town to sport a CNG
ride. Cyber_lot Almost always a conversation starter when you open the trunk!
Condition
Drivetrain
Engine starts up and
runs strong. Only 65k miles. NO
knocks, NO smoke, NO dripping engine leaks. Transmission shifts into and
through all
gears. Has
proper acceleration and cruises at highway speed. The 5.2L
is one of the most durable and efficient 8cyl engines Dodge produced and
should easily last 300K+ miles
with proper maintenance. This was a fleet maintained vehicle with
regular servicing, including oil changes at proper intervals.
Exterior
Paint has most of
its factory shine as you can see. There are several
areas where the paint is peeled or flaked off and has been touched up.
There are soft dents, dings, scrapes, scratches, and blemishes all over
the body. There are some soft dents on the right rear corner and a small rust patch on the rocker area beneath the driver door. There are a few spots where the rocker area is dented in. The bumpers have dents, most notably the rear one. This was a work vehicle and has wear on the body. Please keep in mind
this is not a showroom new but in average condition for a work van.
Interior
Interior is in decent condition
with average wear. Seats are in good condition with no rip or tears, just some wear on the edge of the driver seat. Interior is fresh and
clean and has been professionally detailed.
Wheels and Tires
· Tires have approx 50-60%+ tread remaining.
CNG System
I have fueled up with CNG and tanks properly hold pressure. I noticed a very faint cng odor and it's most likely a loose connector on one of the lines or an 0-ring. I'll try to take care of that before auction's end. Doesn't affect running or driveability.
I have test driven this vehicle
over 30
miles and it should have no problem going anywhere. I have tried to describe the condition to the best of my ability but this is merely a guideline and repairs may be required. I do recommend having this vehicle shipped due to the limited availability of CNG stations in some areas. As I recommend
to all my customers, you should have your mechanic look over any newly
purchased vehicle before extensive use. I have tried to list as many
details about this vehicle as I can, including known defects. There
may
be deficiencies that I am not aware of so buyers are encouraged to
inspect in
person. This was previously a fleet/lease vehicle and may have greater
wear and tear than private vehicles. Vehicle is otherwise sold as-is
and where is with no
warranty express of implied. If you are local I encourage and
welcome you to
come down and test drive the car for yourself or have an independent
inspection completed PRIOR to bidding. There will be no price adjustments or cancellation of sale for failure to do so. I am happy to answer any
questions so feel free to e-mail me or call.
