Dodge W200 4x4 (like Power Wagon) on 2040-cars
Pilot Hill, California, United States
|
This is your atypical awesome farm truck. It's a 1973 W200 with four wheel drive, a 318, and a granny gear 4-speed (manual transmission). It has Dana 44 and 60 axles (eight lug), both of which lock for positraction; they are also geared appropriately for the tire height. The engine runs great, but is indeed old; it burns a bit of oil, and it leaks, but it is totally dependable. It does not smoke, but the valvetrain can clatter a bit when it's hot. All driveline components work excellently; I use the four wheel drive at least once a month, and have installed new Warn premium hubs. The transfer case, transmission, clutch, and axles are in great shape, from the center sections to the brakes to the drive shafts. The following parts have been replaced in the last 2.5 years or so: steering box, carburetor, intake manifold, muffler, front hubs, rear drive shaft, u-joints, brakes, alternator, stereo. There's probably something else... The tires/wheels: 37x13-inch Toyo Open Country (50-65% left) on 17 inch aluminum rims. Suspension: 5.5 inch blocks in rear/6-inch springs in front. Shocks are so old (but work) that I can't tell what they are anymore. I've only had the truck about two years... This truck rides very smoothly and quietly, and is very comfortable on the freeway. Everything works, from the lights to the heater; it has power steering and brakes, and turns and stops with minimal effort. It'll get you about 10-12 miles per gallon... The floor pans in the cab have some rust, but if you want this truck, you should be handy. The glass is all good, and the bed is solid. I have mainly used this truck for things like firewood, gravel hauling, and trips to Home Depot, along with four-wheeling around my property, with the occasional 100-mile round trip. It rides like an old pickup, and can easily haul a ton in the bed. I've just gotten a new pickup to consolidate vehicles a bit, so this one has to go. The truck makes fans everywhere it goes. Feel free to ask questions. |

2013 Dodge Durango R/T
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Not too long ago, Chevrolet got itself into some trouble by throwing the SS badge on just about everything it produced, so I've always been a little hesitant about the seemingly excessive use of the R/T nameplate on Dodge vehicles. For the 2013 model year, every model in Dodge's lineup has an R/T trim level from Dart all the way up to the Durango. Although the R/T name used to signified models made for road and track, I doubt anyone would be delusional enough to assume the Durango - and some of the other models wearing this badge - are suited for any sort of track duty.
Still, when this 2013 Dodge Durango R/T rolled up for me to drive for the week, I couldn't help but take in its big, mean and imposing stance. Sure, if I had my choice of buying any of the Dodge R/T products, the Charger and Challenger would be my top picks for sure, but it's easy to say that the Durango would be a close third - far above the R/T versions of the Avenger, Journey and Grand Caravan.

2015 Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car burns rubber into SEMA [w/video]
Tue, 04 Nov 2014Fiat 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.
