5.9L Magnum V8 engine
4-speed automatic trans. with 3.92 axle ratio
Limited-slip differential
Power windows/locks/mirrors
Cruse Conrol
Tilt steering wheel
CD deck with 2 10" subwoofers under the rear fold-down seat. This baby bumps hard with absolutely no rattle.

Fresh oil change

Vehicle has plasti dip matte white wrap. Truck was originally black so the door jambs/sills etc are still black.

I wrapped my Dodge Intrepid 2 years ago and it has never been garaged and is hardly washed because it is just my beater car  and it still looks great. This material seems impervious to winter/salt/gravel and is rated to withstand temps from -60 to over 300 degrees. I'm actually wrapping my Dodge Ram and SRT-8 Charger (there's a reason my ebay name is MoparMan) in the next few weeks.

Goodies:
Performance Headers
Programmer Chip
Dual Exhaust (sounds f'n awesome)
K&N cold air intake
Upgraded/Rebuilt trans w/shift kit
New trans pan and shaft output gaskets along with all new trans fluids.
New Belts
New plugs/wires
New interior carpet (Black)
Painted headliner, interior panels (Blacked out interior)
New headlights
New Grille
New Battery (2 weeks old)
275/55/17 Dunlop rear tires (staggered)
Bedliner
Wrapped in matte white
I also have a fiberglass tonneau cover with rear wing/spoiler available (not pictured as I still have to wrap it)


Has 'Manufacture Buyback' title

If you know anything about the history of these Dakota's, you may know that Chrysler 'misprinted' the advertised R/T's towing capability when this line was released. Dodge stated it had a 6,400lb towing capacity when in reality its about 2000lbs. This lead to a lawsuits against DaimlerChrysler AG which ultimately lead to a "manufacture buyback" for disgruntled customers. This is one of those buybacks. Title in hand.

Runs great, sounds great, turns heads!

Purchased in Ohio and I drove it all the way to SD. I'd take it cross country right now if need be.

Only selling because I'm getting married in May and need some honeymoon cash.

Has about 1.5 inches of 'play' in the steering.

Spedometer doesnt work between 0-50, but works from 50mph+ From what i've read, its a very common problem with the Dakotas.

Chrysler extends fuel tank warranties on LX cars, NHTSA ends probe

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has ended its investigation of 153,817, 5.7-liter and 6.1-liter Hemi V8-powered 2006 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum models after reports of stalling. Chrysler has responded by granting a lifetime warranty on the fuel tanks for these vehicles.
NHTSA received 299 reports of engines stalling while the models were stopped or driving at low speeds, and began an investigation. The government agency found that the control valve shutoff float in the V8s' 19-gallon fuel tank could malfunction if the fuel had too high of an ethanol content. In many cases, the valve would break in the open position, allowing the tank to be overfilled, which would then cause the cars to stall. However, there were no accidents reported, and the vehicles could be restarted immediately.
There will not be a recall on these vehicles because, "the condition represents a low risk to motor vehicle safety and is adequately addressed by Chrysler's extended warranty," NHTSA said to The Detroit News.

Dodge Hellcats getting price hike

Fri, Aug 21 2015

Dodge plans twice as many Hellcats on the road for the 2016 model year, they are going to be a bit more expensive when buyers sign on the dotted line. According to CarsDirect and confirmed to Autoblog by Dodge, 2016 Challenger SRT Hellcat costs $65,190, an increase of $4,200 over 2015. That figure includes $995 for destination and $1,700 for the Gas Guzzler charge. The latest Charger SRT Hellcat retails for $68,640, a $3,650 increase. Other SRT trims of the muscle cars also see a price hike. The 2016 Challenger SRT 392 is $51,190, after destination and a $1,000 guzzler charger – a $3,500 increase. The Charger SRT 392 also jumps $3,000, to $51,990. Even at 2015's prices, Dodge was having problems keeping up with demand for the Hellcat, and the higher price isn't likely to change that. And before you think the company is going plum crazy, the 2016 models of all four muscle cars come standard with Laguna leather seats and navigation. According to company spokesperson Dan Reid to Autoblog, both items had a "very high customer take rate," and the previously optional features are valued at $2,490. Dodge previously announced a discount for those who had a sold 2015 Hellcat order canceled in the switch to 2016. Those amount to $5,000 on the Challenger and $4,000 Charger, which seems like a sweet deal for those customers. Related Video:

Dodge celebrates centennial with Charger and Challenger 100th Anniversary Editions

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

In 1914, the Dodge brothers went from being a parts supplier to a full-scale automaker, and to celebrate the centennial of this milestone, Dodge will offer special editions of the 2014 Charger and Challenger early next year. Both cars will be sold in limited numbers (although no specific number was given), and these cars will stand out thanks to unique touches like 20-inch wheels, 100th anniversary edition logos and the exclusive High Octane Red Pearl Coat paint job (shown above).
The 100th Anniversary Edition package, which runs $2,200 on the 2014 Charger and $2,500 on the 2014 Challenger, comes with red or black leather seats with a cloud print (for a denim-like look) and metal badges on the seatbacks that read "Dodge Est. 1914," while similar logos are also found on the wheel center caps and front fenders. The instrument gauges are unique to each car, with the Charger getting black gauges and the Challenger getting white gauges, and to enunciate the 100-year anniversary, both cars have red numerals on the speedometer for the 100-mile-per-hour mark.
Finishing off the 100th Anniversary Edition cars, which will be offered on V6 and R/T models, Dodge adds a flat-bottom steering wheel and embroidered floor mats as a part of the package. Scroll down for the full press release for these commemorative models.
