I have decided to sell my 2003 Dodge Ram SLT CREW cab ( 4 door ) with the rare 5.9 liter V8 engine. It has been a secondary vehicle for me and just used to run to Home Depot occasionally. I've decided to sell it and get a smaller more fuel friendly truck.  It has 164,400 miles, an automatic tranny, pw, pl , cruise, tilt, cd player with iPHONE charger/dock built in. It has the 4wd 4x4 and is black with dark interior. There is also a cold air intake, aftermarket dual exhaust with a nice rumble, side steps, and a front leveling kit. it has the factory 20" chrome rims with good tread on the tires. If you are familiar with the 2003-2006 Dodge Rams than you are aware that they ALL have the common rust over the wheel wells as well as had an oxidation problem on some of their paints. The truck did have oxidation fading from the sun on the hood, roof and parts of the bed, so last year I had those areas sanded and prepped with black primer as well as did a repair on the quarters, but some of the rust has come through again. It never bothered me in the primer, but if it did, you could just give it a fresh coat of paint. it has a bed liner and a TRAC RAC. The Rhode Island inspection sticker expires at the end of September. I installed a Brand New Battery last night (9/14/14).  The 4x4 work great.

The a/c compressor went bad beginning of last winter, so I just had my mechanic bypass it with a smaller belt and it runs fine. you could replace it or just leave it.

this would be a perfect work truck, first vehicle, or a second car for running to the dump. Due to the age and mileage, this is being sold with NO WARRANTY.

Quirks:
the check engine light randomly comes on for a few days, then goes out for a few weeks. It never seems to affect the truck so I haven't bothered with it.

the serpentine belt might need to be adjusted as it occasionally squeals at start-up for a minute or so until its warmed up. Doesn't happen all the time, just occasionally. 

the hood release lever under the hood (not the release inside under the dash, that works fine) broke of before i bought it, so the previous owner just adapted a lever behind the front grille and it works fine.

The truck runs good with no major issues that im aware of.

I will add better pics including interior tomorrow.

there is a $500.00 non-refundable deposit due at end of auction.  I will not ship the truck, but will assist the buyer any way i can

On Sep-20-14 at 09:39:44 PDT, seller added the following information:

 Just to clarify, this is a RAM 1500.  I reserve the right to end the auction early, as It is also available locally for sale.


On Sep-22-14 at 20:00:15 PDT, seller added the following information:

9/22/2014 UPDATE: Just wanted to ad that the truck also has a factory tow package with the hitch as well as the plug built into the bumper.  I never towed anything with this truck and I don't believe the previous owner ever did either.

Also, I have a Clear Rhode Island title in my name.

Is Mopar readying a special-edition Dart for Chicago?

Sat, 26 Jan 2013

Chrysler has released the above teaser of a limited-edition Mopar 2013 model that will be unveiled at next month's Chicago Auto Show. Although the automaker doesn't announce what vehicle will get the Mopar treatment, closer investigation of the seats and center console suggest that this car will be a special version of the 2013 Dodge Dart.
This will be the fourth Mopar model in as many years, following on the heels of the Mopar 2010 Challenger, Mopar 2011 Charger and the Mopar '2012 300. There are no details for the Mopar '13 Dart, but we do see that the car will retain the signature black-and-blue color scheme as past Mopar editions. Like these previous models, we expect production of Mopar '13 Dart to be limited to just 500 units.
Scroll down for Chrysler's press release teasing the new Mopar model, and we'll be sure to bring you plenty of live images from the show floor in a couple weeks.

Chrysler's Jefferson North plant builds 5-millionth SUV [w/video]

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

Chrysler's Jefferson North Assembly Plant opened in 1992 for production of the first Jeep Grand Cherokee, but in the subsequent years, the Detroit plant has gone on to produce some of the company's biggest SUVs including the Jeep Commander and Dodge Durango. Earlier this week, the plant produced its five-millionth SUV, which, fittingly, was a Grand Cherokee.
Celebrating the plant's five-millionth unit, the silver 2014 Grand Cherokee was promptly donated to the USO. In addition to this milestone SUV, Chrysler also had a near-perfect 1993-95 ZJ Grand Cherokee on hand for the photo op. Scroll down for the Chrysler press release as well as a video showing some of the speeches from the celebration.

eGarage interviews a couple with 65 Vipers

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

Owning multiple vehicles can be a hassle worth enjoying if you're willing to spend the time and the money required to acquire and maintain them. But when it's hard to make ends meet while underused valuable hunks of metal, plastic and rubber sit happily taking up garage space, journeys into the depths of other people's well-developed automotive obsessions will either bring you and your cars closer together, or compel you to sell them off before you become one of those fanatics. A recent video by eGarage is one of those journeys, and it's not for the faint of heart: D'Ann and Wayne Rauh own 65 Dodge and SRT Vipers in a collection of automobiles that exceeds 100.
We're not sure if the couple has developed heat-resistant calves from stepping over Viper door sills made burning-hot by side-exhaust pipes, but we wouldn't be surprised if they did. We did learn that their obsession with the no-holds-barred sports car started in 2006 with a trip to a dealership to buy just one Viper, which goes to show how innocently car obsessions can start. But the Rauhs seem to be doing just fine - perhaps better - 64 more Vipers later.
Watch the video below for the full story and to see what eGarage claims is the world's largest Viper collection.
