1997 Dodge Ram 3500 dually extended cab 5.9L Cummins 12 valve turbo diesel, NV4500 5-speed manual transmission, rear wheel drive, Laramie SLT package w/leather interior, power drivers seat, tilt/cruise, power windows, power door locks, Cold A/C, AM/FM stereo w/CD, gooseneck hitch in bed and 2 inch receiver hitch attached to frame @ factory. I have owned this truck for the past eight years. When I purchased it, it had 199,600 miles on it. I purchase a factory rebuilt transmission, had it installed along with new Clutch and pressure plate(synchronizer was starting to make noise in 5th gear & would slip out of gear at times). Brakes were replaced @ about 215,000 miles, it now has 230k miles on it. Front tires have 4000-5000 miles on them. Rear tires still have decent tread. I have owned many new Dodge trucks every year from 1993 to 1999. I used to put 80-100,000 miles a year on them. Every fall, I would order a new truck and sell the previous year truck. I found the 1997 model year to be the most reliable. That’s why I decided to buy this one in 2006 because I could not justify buying a new truck to drive it only 3,500-4,000 miles a year. I am retiring this year and will be driving the Dodge truck even less, so I have decided to sell it. It has new paint( Colorado sun likes to fade the paint) & looks great, interior is showing signs of cracking from our dry climate, the rear seat has a sizeable tear (chunk) out of it. It was there when I got it. Being that it’s a work truck, it never bothered me enough to have it replaced. No rust as this truck was purchased new in western Kansas (Goodland) and has been in Colorado for the past 8 years. I have a copy of the original title from Kansas. It has the typical oil leaks for a diesel, nothing major. Also, I just noticed the dash vents aren’t working. The blend door blows cold air out defrost & floor vents & A/C blows cold. A vacuum line that operate the blend door may have come loose. Should be an easy fix. This is a good work truck. It is not new, but, it gets the job done. Take a look at the pictures that I have posted below. I think you’ll see how nice this truck is for the money.

Dodge Durango Shaker concept: A 392 V8 in front of six Viper seats

Tue, Nov 1 2016

When done right, a parts-bin special can be a beautiful thing. This Dodge Durango Shaker concept for the 2016 SEMA show is one such vehicle, and it's easily our favorite Mopar debuting in Vegas. The key, of course, is pulling from the right bins. Take a tour and you'll see Charger, Challenger, and Viper pieces grafted onto this slick crossover. The featured special part is the big, 6.4-liter 392 Hemi V8 that's been dropped under the hood; it's sourced from the SRT Challenger and Charger where it makes 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque. With that in place, the fabricators cut a big hole in that hood for the Challenger's awesome optional shaker scoop. It wasn't an easy installation; it required a custom spacer for the intake to make sure everything lined up with the hole properly. View 17 Photos Apparently there were some Viper seats lying around, so six of them were stuck into this Durango. Makes sense. It does lose a bit of people-carrying capability as a result, since only two seats fit in each row, and the seats don't fold for extra cargo room. A Dodge spokesperson attested to the fact that all three rows are usable, if not totally comfortable. But then stock third-row seats aren't always that comfortable anyway. Seriously, though, Viper seats. We don't care how comfortable or usable the result is. Although you might not give it a second thought, even the fuel filler needed some special attention. This piece was also lifted from a Dodge Challenger, and it was taken along with the surrounding sheet metal. Because of the different orientation of the filler cover on the Challenger, the builders decided the easiest way to get it to fit was to chop the fuel filler section out and weld it onto the Durango. The designers also put a little blue Stig on the cover. And those are just the cool parts that were hard to install. This Durango features plenty of other slick details, like the custom bumpers, fender flares, and side skirts. Everything is painted B5 Blue with matte black and carbon accents all around. Up front, the bumper hides a pair of fog lights stolen from a Challenger Hellcat – and yes, they're the ones with intakes in the middle. The grille is also a custom piece, losing the standard crosshair design for better airflow. The fender flares cover up some seriously wide, 305-section tires at all four corners, which are hauled down by Hellcat brakes. The rear bumper bumper contains a stylish center-exit exhaust with dual tips.
