     I am selling my 2004 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab pickup as the boat I planned to tow it with isn't going to happen.  The truck is in good condition, and has many features.  I have been using it as an everyday commuter; it doesn't have any issues and is very reliable.  We have used it for our family of four, including 2 x young children with car seats with plenty of room.  It has had regular service, and recently had all fluids flushed and changed (axles, transfer case, transmission, engine oil).  The price I have listed is fair, the other trucks you see online that are way below this one do not have the V8 or tow package, or have horrible mileage.  Kelly Blue Book has this vehicle listed, in good condition, to a private party sale, as $9500.  If it was purchased for my list price, depending on your credit and terms for financing, it would cost approximately $115 a month to finance (at 3.99% for 60 months).  
     As a side note, this vehicle, while excellent, was once stolen and recovered.  As such, it once held a "rebuilt" title; this will not affect finance of the vehicle in any way, but it does allow you to get this vehicle at a lower price than the same model vehicle that has not gone through this process.  Don't take my word for it, check out what Kelly Blue Book has to say about rebuilt title vehicles (listed below).  Note that they recommend a 20-40% discount for salvaged vehicles; mine is priced at just over a 26% discount ($9500-26.5%=$6983), and the 20-40% is for vehicles that have some kind of past damage, not just a rebuilt title.  This truck has never been in an accident; only a few states list stolen/recovered vehicles as "rebuilt", Maryland and Pennsylvania are among those that do, hence your win at a lower price.  I'm a fair guy, show me a vehicle with the same options at a cheaper price within 100 miles of my location and I will negotiate.    
     I am pricing this truck to sell quickly.  Aside from the below stock options, it also has the following after market items: 

Oversized Wheels (lots of life left in them, over 3/4 tread left)
Mud flaps
Running boards
Spray in bed-liner
Window visors on all four doors
Hands free bluetooth phone and music streaming (stream music from your phone to the stereo via bluetooth)
Sony stereo with iPhone controls

Stock Options:
117K miles
Automatic Transmission
4x4
V8, 4.7L
4 Door
5'6' Bed
Cloth Seats (excellent condition)
2 x key fobs (alarm and keyless entry)
Dual Airbags
Power Steering
Power Windows, Locks, Mirrors
Premium Rims
Tow Package, which includes the following:
     7-Pin Wiring Harness
     Auxiliary In-Tank Transmission Oil Cooler
     Heating Element for the Exterior Mirrors
     Heavy Duty Engine Cooling
     Heavy Duty Service Group
     Class IV Hitch Receiver
     Power Steering Cooler

KBB Salvage Vehicles:

"My car is in good condition, but has a "salvage" title. How does that affect the value?

A salvaged, reconstructed or otherwise "clouded" title has a permanent negative effect on the value of a vehicle. The industry rule of thumb is to deduct 20% to 40% of the Blue Book value, but salvage title vehicles really should be privately appraised on a case-by-case basis in order to determine their market value."

Dodge Challenger returns to Trans Am

Fri, 15 Aug 2014

NASCAR's Nationwide Series may have switched (in appearance anyway) to muscle cars, but American racing fans know that if they want to see real muscle cars on the street circuits, the only place to look is Trans Am. The all-American racing series is packed with Mustangs, Camaros and even Corvettes. The one thing it's been missing is the Dodge Challenger, but now SRT Motorsports has announced it's bringing its muscle car back where it belongs.
Rather than waiting until next year, the Miller Racing team is switching mid-season to the new Dodge Challenger SRT Trans Am racer you see here, just in time for this weekend's race at Mid-Ohio. And not just that - it's lined up a compelling pair of drivers to pilot it, as well.
The No. 11 car will be driven by Trans Am legend Tommy Kendall, a four-time series champion who's been off the grid since 2004. Backing him up in the No. 1 Challenger will be none other than Cameron Lawrence, the driver who has won five out of six races in the Chevy Camaro so far this season, losing out only once to American racing scion Adam Andretti.

Dodge Challenger Hellcat drift video is pure horsepower porn

Fri, Mar 27 2015

We could listen to the whining, snarling 6.2-liter Hemi V8 in the Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcats all day long. The noise just sounds like power that's being barely restrained and is everything about a muscle car that's right. The team at Pennzoil apparently understands that allure, too. The oil company has a new video where it lets the engine roar for over a minute, while a Challenger does some big, smoky drifts through an abandoned city. The whole stunt is edited together in a slickly produced way that looks fantastic. Although, the big finale might go a little too far and starts straining believability. Nonetheless, the Hellcat's wonderful noise is still the star of this show. Related Video:

Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.
