This is "The" original Dodge Cummins pickup.  It is the very first year, and a very rare single rear wheel D350 (1 Ton) 2WD pickup.  I have yet to see another D350 like it on the road.  This truck is bone stock and original in nearly all areas.  It even has the original Chrysler premium sound system option with cassette player along with the original owner manuals.  The truck was repainted about 8 years ago in urethane, and looks very good as you can see.  There are many blemishes on this truck as it has been well used over the years.  I have had it for most of it's life, and I love this old girl.  The original 12 Valve non intercooled diesel is in it, and all that has been done is the water pump, and the injector pump has been stepped up a bit.  This thing has some serious power.  The manual 5 speed shifts excellent, and the clutch was replaced around 180,000 miles.  It has a Dana 70 rear end with 354 gears.  I recently changed the carrier bearings.  The suspension is pretty much original except for shocks, and brakes.  The front rotors have always chattered under heavy braking, and I could never figure out how to get rid of it.  The AC works good, and it is the original R12 system never had issues other than adding some every few years.  The tires are like new all around and very good quality heavy truck tires.  I towed a camper trailer with a 5th wheel hitch.  It is fully functional with the plug and trailer brake control.  The hitch is the old style non rocker as you can see, but it tows like a dream and gets 15 MPG with the camper on it.  This truck gets phenominal mileage.  I have a 2005 cummins with a 24V motor, and it eats way more diesel than this old girl.  She has clear title, and has had no accidents.  There is a heavy Draw tite bumper hitch receiver as well with the 4 prong trailer plug.  This is a longbed pickup with a bed liner.  The 5th wheel hitch is bolted down through cut outs in the liner.  There is no rust anywhere I have seen in this truck.  It is a California/Oregon truck as far as I know.  It has a slider rear window that works, but the lock is broken.  The seat has a hole where the driver sits.  The rear main seal drips a little oil on the garage floor.  I have always garaged this truck, although the rubber seals for the driver and passenger windows are cracked and dried out.  All the glass is good with no cracks.  The front bumper has a crease in it where I hooked a stump in revers and pulled it back slightly.  It still look fine, but a new bumper would look pretty.  The grille is excellent in all respects except for a could little dings and scrapes in the metal stripping.  There is a silver dollar size dent near the passenger side read wheel well that is barely visible.  There are some scratches I noted in the photos the best I could, but they could easily be touched up.  All the hardware works for the doors and windows.  Everything is manual crank old school which I always liked.  The driver door hinge is pretty tired, but still closes well after all these miles.  The tailgate is absolutely beautiful.  The outside latch has been partially disable so I reach in the bed to drop the tailgate.  The rear bumper is very nice chromed diamond plate factory.  The drive shaft with carrier was freshened up with all OEM parts at 200K miles.  The truck drives very well overall.  I has a little vibration at highway speed, but mostly due to the big original steel wheels.  The engine starts right up every time.I put a factory new OEM starter in it a year ago.    When it is cold it puffs a little blue for a minute then it is all black from there.  Remember it has alot of miles, but there is another 300K in this truck.  You will never kill this engine.  It is impossible.  Ask questions if I missed anything.

Chrysler recalling over 280k minivans because airbags may deploy on wrong side

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

Chrysler has issued a recall for some 2013 Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan and Ram C/V Tradesman vans built between May 10, 2012 and June 7, 2013. These vehicles may have a software error that would cause the wrong side (opposite side) airbags to deploy in a crash. With this defect, a left-side impact would cause the right-side airbag to deploy, etc.
The recall affects 281,500 vehicles in total: 224k in the US, 49,300 in Canada, 2,900 in Mexico and 5,300 in other locations. Chrysler will notify owners of effected vehicles, and reflash the offending occupant restraint control module to resolve the issue.

Watch these Super Bowl car commercials [UPDATE]

Sat, Feb 2 2019

On Sunday, February 3, the New England Patriots take on the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl 53 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. Some will watch because of the storyline of the old-school dynasty facing off against the new-school wunderkinds, but a large chunk of people will solely be watching for the commercials. Lucky for those who slot into the latter category, many of the manufacturers release their super bowl ads ahead of time, or have simply opted to release the commercials only online. Scroll down to see what car companies have already shown their cards. Audi Audi goes the comedic route in its clip for the Big Game. It starts with a grandpa showing his grandson a gorgeous Audi e-tron GT tucked away in a garage before he's shaken awake. Turns out he was just choking on a cashew in his cubicle at his boring job. Dodge Dodge does what it knows: create enough smoke to punch more holes in the ozone layer. Set to "The Devil Went Down to Georgia (the Super Bowl is in Atlanta, get it!?), a Challenger SRT Hellcat widebody, Charger SRT Hellcat, and Durango SRT are seen ripping through a city, leaving a trail of rubber crumbs in their wakes. Genesis Genesis has not yet released a commercial prior to the Super Bowl, but it is the official luxury vehicle of the NFL. Because of this, Genesis is hosting a fan experience for 10 days before the game. It will showcase the brand's cars, offer games, and have photos opportunities and autograph days. Hyundai Jason Bateman alert! Hyundai is one of the few companies to hook a major celebrity for its advertisement, and the casting is perfect. Bateman plays a doorman who takes people to various terrible events in life, including root canals, the middle seat, and shopping for a car. The ad centers around Hyundai's Shopper Assurance, which is Hyundai's new method for car shopping. Jeep An old 1963 Jeep Gladiator finds its strength in the crusher and transforms into a a new 2020 Gladiator, with a firm declaration that the nameplate is officially back. Kia Through Kia's commercial, a young boy wonders out loud what it'd be like if the millions spent on Super Bowl commercials were used to help others.

Dodge Dart getting hatchback variant... sort of

Thu, 25 Apr 2013

In other parts of the world, Fiat builds and sells a version of the Dodge Dart called the Viaggio, and it appears that in addition to the current sedan bodystyle, a new hatchback version of the car is also in the works. Autocar says that the general manager for China's Guangzhou-Fiat joint venture, John Burton, has confirmed that a new Viaggio hatchback will be revealed by the end of this year before it goes on sale in early 2014.
The Viaggio will soon be joined by the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, which in China will be called the Liberty Light, at the Guangzhou-Fiat plant. While the idea of a Dodge Dart hatchback might be enough to enable most of us to forget about the Dodge Caliber, a North American variant doesn't appear to be in the cards. We reached out to Chrysler PR boss Rick Deneau, and he offered a succinct: "No plans at this time."
