1997 Dodge Ram 3500 Base Extended Cab Pickup 2-door 5.9l on 2040-cars

1997 Dodge Ram 3500 dually extended cab 5.9L Cummins 12 valve turbo diesel, NV4500 5-speed manual transmission, rear wheel drive, Laramie SLT package w/leather interior, power drivers seat, tilt/cruise, power windows, power door locks, Cold A/C, AM/FM stereo w/CD, gooseneck hitch in bed and 2 inch receiver hitch attached to frame @ factory. I have owned this truck for the past eight years. When I purchased it, it had 199,600 miles on it. I purchase a factory rebuilt transmission, had it installed along with new Clutch and pressure plate(synchronizer was starting to make noise in 5th gear & would slip out of gear at times). Brakes were replaced @ about 215,000 miles, it now has 230k miles on it. Front tires have 4000-5000 miles on them. Rear tires still have decent tread. I have owned many new Dodge trucks every year from 1993 to 1999. I used to put 80-100,000 miles a year on them. Every fall, I would order a new truck and sell the previous year truck. I found the 1997 model year to be the most reliable. That’s why I decided to buy this one in 2006 because I could not justify buying a new truck to drive it only 3,500-4,000 miles a year. I am retiring this year and will be driving the Dodge truck even less, so I have decided to sell it. It has new paint( Colorado sun likes to fade the paint) & looks great, interior is showing signs of cracking from our dry climate, the rear seat has a sizeable tear (chunk) out of it. It was there when I got it. Being that it’s a work truck, it never bothered me enough to have it replaced. No rust as this truck was purchased new in western Kansas (Goodland) and has been in Colorado for the past 8 years. I have a copy of the original title from Kansas. It has the typical oil leaks for a diesel, nothing major. Also, I just noticed the dash vents aren’t working. The blend door blows cold air out defrost & floor vents & A/C blows cold. A vacuum line that operate the blend door may have come loose. Should be an easy fix. This is a good work truck. It is not new, but, it gets the job done. Take a look at the pictures that I have posted below. I think you’ll see how nice this truck is for the money.
