Up for sale is the most dependable diesel truck on the road, the venerable 12 valve Cummins Dodge Ram! For those not familiar with these trucks, a little bit of research will give you a clue as to why the 94-early 98 Dodge Ram Diesel Trucks bring such a premium. These are the motors EXPECTED to run over 800k miles with routine maintenance. These are the trucks that get 22-25mpg hwy STOCK and better with modifications. These are the trucks with the mechanical fuel pump...an issue that many 98.5-02 Cummins owners have spend thousands on fixing. With that being said, if you're looking at this truck, you probably already know all this and more. This truck has been adult owned and responsibly enhanced for better fuel economy and reliability. These improvements were removal of the restrictive muffler and installation of boost,EGT and trans temp gauges to monitor important parameters. Tires have been upgraded to 33" all terrains(285/75/16) and fronts have 65% tread life, rears have about 45-50%. Newer flip up towing mirrors have been added as well for better visibility and appearance. The engine runs extremely strong, transmission shifts excellent and four wheel drive operates properly. Front suspension doesn't "wander" or have unnecessary play. Cosmetically, the truck is in better shape than pretty much any 97 Dodge Ram with over 100k miles,though it is not a show truck by any means. It has its share of rock chips but both doors have been replaced to remedy the ever present rust that forms on them over time. There is a small patch of paint bubbling on the base of the left front fender. Aside from that, no other rust issues.....this is a very solid truck. Interior is in above average shape for the year of truck, with the only tear being on the drivers seat bolster and has been sewn up to keep it from spreading. This truck appears to never have been smoked in and is only a TWO OWNER truck. No accidents at all on its Autocheck Report. THIS TRUCK HAS NEVER HAD A GOOSENECK OR 5th WHEEL INSTALLED! Yes, you read right. This truck has had an easy life and is ready for a lifetime of trouble free service. I take great pride in fully disclosing the condition of my vehicles. Please call with any questions you may have about the car and let me know if I can help locate an auto transport company for you. There is a mandatory $120 dealer doc. fee on all ebay/internet sales NOTE: $500 deposit due within 24hrs of auctions end. After this point, it will be offered to the next highest bidder if you cannot complete the transaction. Full payment due within 10 days of auctions end. Sean (402)-212-2827

Weekly Recap: Toyota propels hydrogen fuel cells
Sat, Jan 10 2015Toyota 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.
Marchionne on Alfa's US return, Dodge Dart's powertrain weakness and minivan plans
Fri, 18 Jan 2013As a reporter covering an auto show, the one opportunity you never want to miss is going to the Sergio Marchionne press briefing.
"This undertaking to bring Alfa back is a one-shot deal... We are not going to do this twice."
There just aren't that many real characters left in the auto industry. Marchionne, who sits atop both Chrysler and Fiat, is not only one of the smartest execs in the business, but also the most frank. Herein, a sample of the quotable always-sweatered executive:
121k Dodge Darts being investigated over braking problem
Mon, Jun 22 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating the Dodge Dart due to reports of braking problems. Some 121,000 cars are possibly affected, all from the 2013 model year. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA received 18 complaints about the brake pedal becoming hard to depress on these cars, increasing stopping distance. Drivers reported hearing a "pop noise or an air hissing noise when applying the brake pedal, followed by a hard pedal feel and reduced brake effectiveness," NHTSA told the News. In a particularly terrifying incident, one driver says the Dart's braking system shut down while driving at 50 miles per hour. "I feared for my life. It is one of the scariest things I have ever dealt with," the complaint said, according to The Detroit News. A Fiat-Chrysler spokesperson said the automaker is "fully cooperating" with this investigation.
