Up for auction is my 2004 Dodge Ram. It is a 2500 ST with 4 wheel drive, automatic transmission and Cummins turbo diesel engine. I have owned the truck since I bought it new in late 2004. I have used the truck for about 50% work/50% personal use since then. I am in the process of selling my current landscape business and need to replace this truck with a small car for my new commute. Over the years I have kept up on the maintenance well and most commonly worn out stuff has been replaced at least once. The most costly being the transmission & torque converter, which was completely rebuilt and upgraded with heavy duty parts about 6000 miles ago ($4800). Documentation will be provided. The truck is overall pretty clean for being in the Northeast which I attribute to very frequent washing including the underneath. The truck does have a plow on it (8' Sno-Way 29HD with wireless controller) which was installed February 2011. We had very little snow for the rest of that winter, very little snow for winter 2011-2012, and well under average snowfall this past year so the truck has not really plowed that much snow. I will include the plow for $2000 over and above the winning bid amount. It was over $5500 and documentation will be provided.

The Ram runs perfect. It is, I believe what they call a 2004.5 model with the HO 325HP/600 engine. The engine starts and runs with no issues, no abnormal smoke and is all stock. Fuel and air filter changed yearly. Engine oil and filter changed every 3000-4000 miles with either Rotella T or more recently Delo 400. It has never had an aftermarket air filter or computer programmer in it. The exhaust is an aftermarket MBRP stainless steel system because at the time it was less expensive than factory parts. It didn't seem to change anything about the truck. It is not quiet however. Not ridiculously loud, but not quiet as stock parts would have been. The transmission, as stated above, was completely rebuilt by the best transmission specialist in our region. Heavy duty torque converter (they build them in their own separate facility), heavy duty clutches etc. I specified the use of the truck (multi use, some heavy towing) and they took it from there. It works/shifts like new and is not noticeably more abrupt shifting and seems to have about the same as stock stall speed. The transfer case was also disassembled and re-sealed, at the same time, since it had a slight leak coming from the center gasket. It also works like new. The front and rear differentials have never been apart and have no problems. The t-case, and differentials have been serviced every 30Kmi or so with Amsoil lubricants. Front U-joints have been done a number of times and are still good. Front 4wd driveshaft was rebuilt locally at Albany Universal about a year and a half ago. Rear u-joints were just replaced over the winter. Ball joints, tie rod ends, track bar bushings etc. have all been replaced with Moog components. Front wheel bearing assemblies have been replaced with the best ones I could get. The batteries and alternator were replaced late last summer. The tires are Cooper Discoverer AT3's and were put on new over the winter along with an alignment (which was almost perfect before adjustments anyway). The tires are still in great shape with only a few thousand miles on them. They are good in the snow, but noisier in the dry weather than the previous sets of Cooper tires I have had on the truck. I also have a set of chrome stock wheels with very worn Nokian snow tires that I will include in case you want to have a set of snow or spare tires for the truck. The Patriot Blue body color is nice but there is some small dents and dings and a number of scratches. There is some bubbles showing on the bottom edge of the tailgate and a spot on the passenger door where I believe there was a rock chip. Largely the body is rust free. Part of the drivers side door was just repainted due to having a big dent in the center of it that could not be pulled out. I took specific pictures of the most important defects (top edge of tailgate, lower rear left by rear bumper, driver door ding by door handle). Inside of bed has many dings and scratches, no major damage and no rot. Rear bumper has a dented area from someone running into it while parked. Front bumper has a number of small dings/dents from using it to push race cars up the ramp into my garage when they couldn't be driven. Nothing major. The interior is in good shape. There are no holes worn into the floor covering. Few scratches in the plastic panels here and there. There is a Tekonsha Prodigy brake controller installed as well as an Alpine AM/FM/CD player to replace the factory cassette deck. I would not hesitate to drive the truck anywhere, anytime. I have gotten as high as 18.12 MPG in summertime with the truck.

Notable "Bad Stuff": Front seal on engine leaks some oil. Not enough to have to add oil between oil changes, but still a nuisance. The steering box leaks some power steering fluid. Again, not enough to have to top off the fluid regularly, but a nuisance and I have had to add fluid in the reservior once. The Air Conditioning has not worked on the few almost hot days we have had this spring. Has always worked fine prior. As the pictures show, there is the common driver seat hole in the upholstery. I spoke with a local auto upholsterer and they gave a quote of $300-$325 to restore the foam and recover that section of the seat with matching fabric. The red reflector on the passenger side door panel is missing and I have no idea when it popped out. Air bag light has been on for a couple years. I have no idea why, just noticed it was on one morning when I started the truck.

Please ask any questions you have. I have pictured and described the truck the best I can. I have great feedback and have sold a number of motor vehicles and pieces of equipment on Ebay over the years. Since this is my last vehicle to sell, I am going to need payment promptly. I will store the truck for as long as the buyer needs, but I need to have payment in full within 5 days from the end of the auction. Please have your finances in order. Payment can be made with cash, or a certified check. I will not take Paypal for any amount. I will not take any trades or any other forms of payment. The title is clean and clear, and I can sign it over and express mail it to the buyer once payment is made.

On another note, I just thought of the Autocheck that Ebay provides. I have no way of viewing that, or its contents prior to listing. I will assume that the truck gets a low score, due to the fact that it has been re-registered a few times over the time I owned it. Originally, Albany Dodge made some kind of mistake with the registration or titling process and had to re-do all of that paperwork thru the Department of Motor Vehicles. Another instance I did re-title the truck from my name, into my landscape business for insurance purposes. All of the time the truck was kept at my home address and was driven by me for probably 116K of the miles that are currently on the truck. It was not driven by employees or kids or anyone else. The truck has never been in any accidents or anything like that. Never flooded, wrecked, in a fire, stolen, totalled or anything like that. One time I did report an incident to a local police officer where I came out of traffic court from paying a DOT ticket and someone had parked there minivan right into the drawbar inserted into the trailer hitch. They didn't even back up. Of all places to run into a guys truck... The truck obviously had no damage thanks to me never taking the drawbar out of the hitch receiver. I thought about just leaving but didn't want to let the minivan driver get away with driving like an A-hole, so I went back in and let one of the officers write it up. Thought I would disclose all of that in case it shows up on the Autocheck.

Ford leads top searched-for car brands on Google in 2014

Mon, Dec 22 2014

With less than two weeks until 2014 takes its final bow, anyone and everyone is looking back on the past 50 or so weeks to see how they stacked up. For search giant Google, that means its time to check out its annual Trends report. Besides the most popular search term (the late, great Robin Williams), the most searched for gadget (the iPhone 6) and most searched for disease symptoms (quite worryingly, Ebola took the crown here), we have the most searched for automaker. With the long-awaited sixth-generation of one of America's most iconic vehicles, the Mustang, and a ground-breaking update for the US market's perennial best seller, the F-Series, it should come as no surprise at all that Ford was Google's most searched for automaker in 2014. Jeep captured second place, while Dodge, took third. We suspect introducing a pair of cars with 707 horsepower had something to do with that bronze medal... Scroll down to see the rest of this year's most searched for automakers, and then head into Comments and let us know if you're surprised by any of these. This content is hosted by a third party.

2015 Dodge Challenger gets 6.4L 485-HP V8 Scat Pack

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

While it's not seeing the drastic facelift of its brother, the Charger, at the 2014 New York Auto Show, the 2015 Challenger is packing some upgrades of its own. It wears even more retro-inspired styling cues, and there are new 6.4-liter Scat Pack and Shaker trims.
If you thought the Challenger looked retro before, Dodge is taking things even farther with inspiration for the refresh coming from the iconic 1971 model. Up front, it has a new split grille, a larger power bulge in the hood and projector fog lights. At the rear, the classic inspiration continues with split LED taillights with Gloss Black trim, and a rear valance panel redesigned to make the 2015 model look wider and lower.
The '71 motif is carried inside as well with a high-sill center console and aluminum gauge bezels. There's still more than a touch of modernity, with an available 8.4-inch Uconnect infotainment system and 7-inch customizable display between the retro-inspired speedometer and tachometer. For better safety, the Challenger is also now available with forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross path detection. Stability control and electric power steering are standard across all models too.

Certain Chrysler owners eligible for buyback program

Mon, Jul 27 2015

Certain car owners whose Chrysler vehicles contain dangerous defects will soon have a way to get rid of their lemons without losing money. As part of an agreement with federal regulators, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has agreed to buy back more than 500,000 vehicles susceptible to veering out of control without warning at above market-value prices. The deal mainly covers certain models of RAM trucks, the Dodge Dakota pickup and Dodge Durango SUV. Further, owners of more than 1.5 million Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokees at heightened risk for lethal fires are eligible to trade in their vehicles at above market value or, alternately, get a gift certificate if they prefer to have repairs made. Chrysler has "a heavy responsibility to make sure the products they make are safe for the traveling public," said Mark Rosekind, administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. "... Here, we are sending an unambiguous signal to industry that if you skirt the laws or violate the law, or don't live up to the responsibility that consumers expect, we are going to penalize you." The buy-back and trade-in options for motorists come as part of an unprecedented penalty NHTSA slapped against Chrysler for violating federal motor-vehicle safety laws. Chrysler will pay a $105 million fine, the highest ever levied by the regulatory agency. In addition to the buy-backs, Chrysler also agreed to an independent monitor for three years. Investigators had outlined problems in the company's conduct in 23 recalls that affected more than 11 million defect vehicles. As part of a consent-order agreement, Chrysler acknowledged it did not notify vehicle owners of recalls in an effective manner and did not notify NHTSA of safety problems. Though those recalls affected millions of drivers, the buy-back and trade-in options are only for a small portion of the vehicles involved. Because Chrysler struggled to fix the problem and no repair was apparent, Rosekind said the buy-backs are reserved "for customers who didn't have a remedy." Buy-backs are for trucks and SUVs affected by three recalls that occurred in 2013 (recalls 13V-038, 13V-527 and 13V-529), that addressed a rear-axle pinion nut that could come loose and cause a loss of vehicle control. Those recalls covered 579,228 vehicles, including 2009-2012 Ram 1500, 2500, 3500, 4500 and 5500 trucks, 2009-2012 Dodge Dakotas, 2009 Chrysler Aspen and the 2009 Dodge Durango.
