1990 Dodge W250 Base Standard Cab Pickup 2-door 5.9l Cummins First Gen Diesel on 2040-cars
Providence, Utah, United States
|
This Truck is in overall good condition. I never thought in a million years that I would sell this truck because it is my baby, but circumstances have lead to my decision to sell it. It is not new or perfect by any-means. It will be sold as is. The motor runs amazing and I get really good fuel economy(the best is 23 mpg). The 1990 Cummins did not come with an inter-cooler. I had one installed from a 1992 dodge, so it does have an inter-cooler. While I was at it I had an HX-35 turbo installed, which a turbo that has a smaller fresh air side and a larger exhaust side. The turbo and inter-cooler were not installed to race and hot rod the truck, they were only installed for performance purposes only(better fuel economy, etc.) While the intercoller was being installed, I had the front cover of the motor removed and had the killer dowel pin fixed as a preventative measure. It had not worked itself out at all, but I had the washer put on it to hold it in place, all new seals were put on the front of the motor while this was done.
This truck will fire right up on a cold morning. In Utah it will get below zero, and the manifold heater works great and it will start right up on sub zero days. No cranking on anything. It is amazing how good it starts. This truck has been babied its whole life. I bought it from an older gentlemen that received it from his father as part of an inheritance. So it has been family owned its hole life. I have a note book with service records of all of the new parts that have been installed. A new high perfomance clutch was installed at 150,000 miles. The front and rear brakes and rotors were installed along with rear wheel seals, there is a history of all of the oil changes and there has been a few overhead valve adjustments. The brakes stop fine and everything, but they are not perfect. Maybe the front rotors could be turned to make it smoother or something, but they are fine. The paint looks good but it is not perfect either. There are some surface rust spots around the wheel wells, including under the cab on the drivers side door there is a hole the size of a quarter. The frame only has minimal surface rust there is no major rust. There are no leaks from the drivetrain. The only leak comes from the power steering gear box. This is a slow leak and it has leaked ever since i bought it. My intentions were to fix it, but the leak is so minimal that I just top off the power steering fluid everytime I change the oil and that has worked fin. It has a straight pipe exhaust, I do have the muffler somewhere if you would like that. It sounds good though, it is a real head turner. I get compliment all the time, and have guys offer to buy this truck from me everywhere I go. It has not pulled a lot of heavy loads in its life, although it is very capable. There is a trailer brake controller installed under the dash. I put the fifth wheel ball in the bed so I could pull a 5th wheel camp trailer and horse trailer occasionally. It was never abused when it was used to pull, but it pulls great and will pull anything. The interior is a great shape. The seat has had a cover on it its whole life. I took it off. There is a little bit of cracking in the side(not on the top where you sit) of the seat on the drivers side. Some of the plastic trim around the headliner has some cracking also. It is nothing major and it has been there the whole time I have owned it which is about 5 years. Whoever ends up with this old dodge will be one lucky individual and will get a hell of of a good truck that will last a really long time. I really hate to see it go. Here is a Video of the truck running(it is a cold start morning): Ebay will not let me post the link, but my youtube username is craigcanski so look it up on youtube |

Fiat Chrysler to get $105M fine from NHTSA for recall woes
Sun, Jul 26 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is about to send a powerful message to automakers doing business in the United States, assuming reports of an upcoming $105 million fine against Fiat Chrysler Automobiles comes to fruition. In addition to the record-setting monetary fine, according to The Wall Street Journal, FCA will have to accept an independent auditor that will monitor the company's recall and safety processes and will be forced to buy back certain recalled vehicles. In other cases, such as with Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models with gas tanks that could potentially catch fire in certain types of accidents, FCA will offer financial encouragement for owners to get their recall work done or to trade those older vehicles in on new cars, according to the report. FCA could reportedly reduce its fines if it meets certain conditions, though those remain unclear at this time. These actions against FCA are being taken after NHTSA began a probe into the automaker over almost two dozen separate instances where the government claims FCA failed to follow proper procedures for recalls and safety defects. Included in those safety lapses are more than 11 million vehicles currently in customer hands. These penalties and fines are separate from the investigation over security problems with Chrysler's Uconnect system that allowed hackers to obtain remote access into key vehicle systems in 1.4 million vehicles.

2020 Dodge Durango SRT Drivers' Notes | When excess is a good thing
Wed, Dec 4 2019Performance SUVs and crossovers from non-luxury brands are still in a nascent stage of development. Models like the Porsche Cayenne Turbo, BMW X5 M and others are on subsequent generations of their high-performance high-riding machines. Meanwhile, the 2019 Dodge Durango SRT is still refreshingly new. It’s also about as American as it gets. Dodge shoehorned in the 6.4-liter V8 and gave it an exhaust system that screams ‘Murica at anyone who strays too close. It makes a glorious 475 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque, completing the sprint to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds. An eight-speed automatic transmission sends power to all four wheels, which means you have traction — something the Challengers and Chargers with this engine could use a bit more of. Despite the Dodge being far cheaper than other big, high performance luxury SUVs out there, it still isnÂ’t cheap. The SRT has a base price of $64,490. Ours stickers for a much higher $78,235. Unsurprisingly, Dodge makes you pay the big bucks for most of the luxury features and customization options. A $2,395 Technology Group adds adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning and forward collision avoidance systems. Fancy interior materials like a suede headliner, nicer materials on the instrument panel and carbon fiber inserts can be had in a $2,495 package. The stripes are $1,295, and the 20-inch wheels cost $995. To get the second row console with an armrest and storage, youÂ’ll have to pay an extra $595. A $78,235 Durango might sound like a completely egregious amount of money, but itÂ’s still far below what youÂ’ll pay for a BMW X7 or Mercedes-Benz GLS that goes just as fast. ItÂ’s no muscle SUV for the people, but it is a muscle SUV for more people than could afford one previously. Assistant Editor Zac Palmer: An American SUV with a giant V8 feels like a superior descendant of muscle cars than most other “muscle cars” on sale today. Both the Mustang and Camaro slant toward the sports car side of things, leaving FCA to carry on the muscle car tradition. And man, Dodge carries it on well. FCA could slot its 6.4-liter V8 into nearly anything and IÂ’d love it, so it was no surprise that I enjoyed it thrashing it about in this behemoth of an SUV. Traction off the line was one major benefit in the Durango over the Charger and Challenger. Matt the throttle and it just leaps forward, similar to the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT.
2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon Video Review | Apex predator
Wed, Nov 15 2017The first time I stepped behind the wheel of the 2018 Dodge Demon, I was pointed down a drag strip, Christmas tree just in view through my full-face helmet. My heart was racing with a mix of nervous anticipation and raw excitement. Since the teasers for this car started rolling out in January, I'd wanted to drive Dodge's monster. This 840-horsepower hunk of steel and plastic was a rolling middle finger to EVs, carbon emissions and global warming. Only in America. The sensation was wholly unique. More so than anything, I noticed the sheer force as I was pushed back into my seat. Watch the video. And here's another one. If it looks like I'm just hanging on, it's because I am. In retrospect, I should have been sitting more upright, but I was trying to watch the revs to get the perfect launch using the transbrake. Still, I managed to get a bit of air between the front tires and the drag strip, if only for a moment. Aside from the sheer force, the most memorable thing was the sound. The scream from the supercharger nearly drowns out everything else. Just beneath that you can hear the 6.2-liter Hemi V8 kicking and screaming a song that sounds like the Devil's own chorus. Still, words don't quite do it justice. Watch the video for the full review. Motorsports Dodge Coupe Performance Videos dodge demon dodge challenger srt demon
