1993 Dodge Ram Intercooled W250 Cummins Diesel 4x4 - 5 Speed Manual

(VIN: 1B7KM26C3PS119086)

This vehicle is a “MADE IN USA” 1993 INTERCOOLED 12-valve Cummins (many made in Mexico, the factory sticker will show legal MADE IN USA). With the exception of the $3000 NV-4500 5-Speed transmission upgrade, it sits basically stock, as it came from factory.  It has added a high quality $1200 sun/moon roof!

 

HIGHLIGHTS!

Dodge Ramcharger 250 CUMMINS (4WD; W250; DANA 70 REAR / DANA 60 FRONT TRANSAXLES). Also, front manual locking hubs – Highly Desirable!

Both DANA Front/Rear have fresh royal purple 90/75 and 90/145 fluids.

RARE Single Cab Long Bed; 5 – SPEED Manual Transmission, with New South Bend Clutch.

Very Clean. Chassis (Rocker Panels, Floor Boards, Bed… 100% Rust Free.

It also has added safety feature, KDP (Killer Dowel Pin) Tab installed.

Headliner is original with a little slack.

Never ever had a 5th wheel and used primarily for light duty.

 

·       Many new parts including Borgeson steering column upgrade and rebuilt steering box; alternator; new brake boost/ master cylinder; new wheel bearings and grease seals on front axle; within last three months, new fuel filter, K&N Air Filter and oil change (Rotella Diesel Oil).

·       All 100% functional holding 2015 Virginia Inspection. Heater Block chord/element works and it is fully functional. Glow plugs etc are great and starts in cold on a dime. That’s with no block heater ever even used.


Issues:

New windshield needed ! Recent hairline crack, see photo.

Emergency brake cable needs replacement.

 

Mechanical  Vehicle has just under 115,000 miles and is basically all stock.

Starts on the first revolution every time, even in winter.  

This 12-Valve Cummins is considered the simplest and, by many, the best Cummins and also considered bulletproof by many; first generation Intercooled engine. It carries great oil pressure cold. Transfer case and all 4x4 work very well.  As stated, the Killer Dowel Pin (KDP) Tab has already been done! Transmission is a NV-5400 upgrade from the stock Getrag 360. It has low mileage and shifts smooth and correctly, Castrol Syntorq Transmission Fluid purposefully overfilled by 1qt as recommended by Diesel Forum members.  

Steering feels like new… it is very tight as is entire front end. New ball joints and front suspension parts. (play is what I would very minimal for one of these trucks (ALMOST NONE)).  It has good wheel alignment and it does not pull left or right; drives straight down the road.  It is practically smoke free, even at idle when cold.  

Oil was changed recently and it is still on the “full” mark and clean.   Rear main and front seals are fine.  There are basically no leaks in the transmission, transfer case or differentials, also new shocks (see truck side photos).  Sits level side to side. Front brakes have good pad left.  Good solid brakes. It’s been very reliable.  It has a new Flow master 3” exhaust that sounds great. The undercarriage of the truck is clean in a way only a very salt-free truck. She spent most of her life in the mid atlantic area, primarly Maryland and Virginia. Very light use.

 

 Body

As stated, NO RUST.  It looks great in pictures and very good “in person”. Older but full bed removal / bare metal paint restoration (retail $8000+ paint job in MB 050 pearl). It is an older restoration! The truck has solid sheet metal. Fenderwells and rocker panels are a main concern on these early cummins 12-valve trucks. These are Rust Free. I.e. NO RUST AT ALL.  


Interior

It is in quite good stock condition. Headliner is ok.  Door panels and seats are absolutely excellent.  No cracks or sun damage to dash. The seat shows quality and care of interior.  Power window and door lock options. Interior lights and turn signals etc all work as new. It is a non-smoker truck and has no cigarette burns or odor.   The visors are in like-new shape and stay right up against the headliner. There is no sun fade because it was garaged most of it whole life.

 

Electrical/HVAC

Very original electrical system.   All exterior lights high/low beams work.  Dome light works, through the switch and function as it should, when doors are opened. Electric windows and locks are stock and work as new.  Horn works.   Turn signals and flashers work.   Heater works.  Blower works on all 4 speeds.  Gas gauge is accurate. Wipers and washer work.  All cosmetically and functionally excellent.

 

All in all it is a good solid truck.  The reserve is reasonable. I have a free and clear title in my name. The only reason i am selling this beast is i am getting an early racing ('73) porsche 911 and need the money. Feel free to check carfax and autocheck.  If you would like to setup an appointment to see it in person you can.   Wire transfer or cashier’s check, but truck and title stay with me until it clears.

Is America's last cheap minivan worth it?

Wed, Dec 16 2015

Take a good look at this beauty. Because once she's gone there may be no turning back. The minivan market has been completely decimated over the past fifteen years. I could list all the former brands (dead and alive) that once formed the lynchpin of parenthood for this inherently conservative market. But that would involve at least fourteen commas, three sets of parentheses, and possibly even one 2000s-style recount. Back then, middle-class America loved these people-movers and even the well-to-do were glad to load them up with unique luxuries such as power sliding doors, captain's chairs, integrated child seats, and DVD players that entombed cacophonous kids into a temporary silence. Back in the '90s, the minivan market regularly realized well over a million sold units a year. In 2000, minivans finally hit their familial peak of 1.4 million vehicles in a year with the help of two top-20 bestsellers: the Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country. Today the minivan just isn't popular. This year it'll likely represent only a half-million in annual sales, with not a single minivan hitting America's top 30 in overall volume. But as I always tell folks, "If you want a deal, you have to hit 'em where they ain't." So you want a cheap and affordable minivan for cash money that isn't a 15-year-old Plymouth in purple? Does it have to be new? Really? Well, if you're married to that type of person, this Grand Caravan with the American Value Package is the cheapest thing going. Deals can also be had on the mini-minivan Mazda5, but since it's been discontinued due to low demand, let's focus on the still-popular Chrysler minivan. The cost for this 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan according to TrueCar is right around $19,500 depending on where you live in the USA. But let's take a look at the 2015 models instead since they tend to have even stronger discounts during the wintertime thanks to manufacturers and dealers who are busy shoveling out all this older inventory. If you opt for a 2015 model instead, you're looking at a market price right around $17,800 and luckily these minivans are still sitting in multitude. Wanna click those rebate and incentive buttons? If you currently lease or finance a FIAT or Chrysler product, have AAA coverage, and finance the car with FCA, you can make off like the proverbial bandit for a price of only $15,229 before the dealer inflicts their bogus fee money dance.

Dodge Charger to slim down and run turbo four in next generation

Tue, May 31 2016

The current Dodge Charger is getting long in the tooth. It was originally introduced in 2005 as a 2006 model. In car terms, that's an eternity, though it's been refreshed twice. Still, FCA US will keep the LX-generation car going, reportedly facelifting it one last time for 2019. After that, there are some bigger changes in store . Automotive News is reporting that the follower to the current LX Charger will lose almost 500 pounds and will once again offer a turbo four-cylinder. You might remember the front-wheel-drive four-banger Charger of the early '80s. The recharged sedan will be twin-turbo and it's going to use the 300-horsepower four-cylinder engine currently under development for the 2018 Jeep Wrangler, AN says. The target weight for the future car is around 3,500 lbs, while the current car has a curb weight of nearly 4,000 lbs. Look for it to arrive in the early 2020s. The new platform will have a touch of Italian flair instead of the Daimler-Benz flavor embedded deep inside the LX cars. It will be built on an extended version of the 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia's "Giorgio" platform, according to AN. Dealers were already shown a styling-buck almost a year ago.

2015 Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car burns rubber into SEMA [w/video]

Tue, 04 Nov 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is showing off a completely redesigned Dodge Charger Funny Car at this year's SEMA Show in Las Vegas and it's ready to blow through the NHRA timing lights next year. Initially, the shape might look like any of the other entrants in its class burning through the quarter mile, but this is the first comprehensive rethink for the racecar's aerodynamics since 2006, says Dodge.
Draped in classy red and black Mopar livery, the 2015 Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car tries to share the front and rear styling with its roadgoing counterpart, plus the scallops along the side, but this racer is all about crossing the finish line first.
The major goals for the redesign included making the body stronger and lighter without sacrificing aerodynamics, and that has been done with materials like Kevlar and carbon fiber. However, engineers have accomplished even more. By moving the cockpit further back, they've increased engine clearance and improved driver visibility.
