2005 Dodge Ram 1500 Slt Quad Cab 5.7 Hemi 4x4 on 2040-cars

Year:2005 Mileage:95403
Location:

Taunton, Massachusetts, United States

Taunton, Massachusetts, United States

Up for sale is my 2005 Ram 1500 Quad Cab 4X4 with the 5.7 Hemi under the hood and 95,403 miles. The truck has been well maintained and never beaten, I've hauled my family and ski mobiles with it for the past several years. It has a few dings and minor dents but looks nice and shiny with 20” chrome rims. The truck is all stock, nothing is modified. In the past 1000 miles the front tires were replaced and it had new platinum plugs installed. The battery is on its second year and the brakes are still OK but will need to be done in the next several thousand miles. Same for the rear tires, they're OK but put new ones on when you can. The exhaust is fine, shocks and suspension OK, the interior is good with only minor wear and no rips or spills.


Why am I selling? For cost cutting reasons I am shrinking my fleet. I have a mini van daily driver, a Jeep and a Road Runner in the garage so the truck simply hasn't been getting much use this year. The van is better on gas and I simply don't have the time to keep up with it or the money to keep it registered and insured. It is currently unregistered; I do have a clean title in hand. Come see it and you'll be impressed, feel free to run a Carfax on it, too. I had a very minor accident a couple of years ago where I backed into the door of a parked import at slow speed (5mph). The door on the import was dented but it literally did nothing to the truck at all. My insurance fixed the other car but the truck was unharmed. It really looks as nice in person as it does in pictures.


The catch: none but in the interest of full disclosure the check engine light is on. I threw a code reader on it and it's telling me that both oxygen sensors on the driver's side bank are faulty. I priced them out and they're about $20 to $30 each so no big deal. Talking to a mechanic friend of mine he said that if it isn't the sensors it could be the catalytic converter and I priced that out to about $150 or so. If you can turn wrenches yourself or have a mechanic that can do it then you'll have a very nice truck for the money, far less than you'll find anywhere else. It has been maintained but not garaged and it hasn't been on the streets since before Halloween. I hate to see it go but I haven't the time or money for it so first person with cash takes it. 

No personal checks and any bank checks have to clear before I hand over keys or title. No foreign sales, either, so if you're foreign Royalty that has a deal just for me then you shouldn't waste your time. It's out of the way so it can stay until you have registered it to drive it home.

$500 deposit via PayPal due within 48 hours of sale. This truck is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early should it sell.

Weekly Recap: Toyota propels hydrogen fuel cells

Sat, Jan 10 2015

Toyota is serious about hydrogen fuel cells, and it wants the auto industry to follow suit. The Japanese automaker said this week it's releasing 5,680 fuel cell patents from around the world, including technologies used on its upcoming sedan, the 2016 Mirai. The move is unusual, but not unprecedented, as Tesla similarly released its electric vehicle patents last year. The idea for Tesla, and now for Toyota, is to spur development of alternative propulsion. "By eliminating traditional corporate boundaries, we can speed the development of new technologies and move into the future of mobility more quickly, effectively and economically," said Bob Carter, Toyota Motor Sales senior vice president of automotive operations, in a statement. Toyota's fuel cell patents will be free to use through 2020, though patents related to producing and selling hydrogen will remain open forever. Toyota said it would like companies that use its patents to share their own hydrogen patents, but won't require it. "What Toyota's doing is really a logical move, and really a good move for the industry," Devin Lindsay, principal powertrain analyst with IHS Automotive, told Autoblog. The announcement was made at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. It comes as Toyota prepares to launch the hydrogen-powered Mirai in a limited number late this year in California. The launch will be extended to the Northeastern United States next year. Toyota also has announced plans to support networks of fueling stations in each region to try to smooth consumer adoption. The Mirai has a 300-mile range on a tank of hydrogen, and it takes about five minutes to refill. Fuel cells have been receiving increased attention recently, and Audi and Volkswagen debuted hydrogen-powered cars at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. Honda, another proponent of the technology, also showed its updated FCV concept in November in Japan. The company, however, has delayed its fuel cell sedan a year until 2016. Like Toyota, Honda says its hydrogen-powered car will have a range of 300 miles or more. Meanwhile, Hyundai currently offers leases for fuel-cell powered Tucsons, which have a 265-mile range, in Southern California. Despite the optimism some automakers have for fuel cells, the technology still faces barriers. A lack of filling stations has long held it back, and many consumers are not familiar with the potential benefits.

This 93-car Iowa auction is like a Big 3 classic muscle museum

Tue, Aug 27 2019

Bill "Coyote" Johnson has been buying cars since high school and has amassed a collection totaling 113 vehicles, according to NBC 6 News. But time has changed his motivations and priorities, and he's decided to auction 93 of those cars, many of which are classic muscle from Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Plymouth and Pontiac. The megasale will take place Sept. 14, 2019, in Red Oak, Iowa, at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds. A 1969 Plymouth Road Runner infected Coyote with a love for Detroit muscle when he was just a teenager, and his desire quickly turned into an obsession. He's spent the past 40 years finding, buying and working on a variety of makes and models. Unlike some collectors, Coyote didn't discriminate against certain brands and has rides from each of the Big 3 automakers. Included in the auction are Camaros, Satellites, Super Bees, Chargers, Challengers, Barracudas, Coronets, GTOs, Mustangs, Cutlasses and others. Possibly the most intriguing aspect of the auction is that all of these cars will be sold as-is with no reserve. Many of them will need work, depending on quality standards, but this seems like a golden opportunity to find a classic car without leaving a bank account in shambles.  The auctions are open for bidding online now, and the full auction will take place on September 14. Check out the full listings and bid at VanDerBrink Auctions.

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.
