1998 - Dodge Ram 3500 on 2040-cars
Phippsburg, Maine, United States
Our 1998 Dodge Ram 3500 DRW 2WD is up for sale. We purchased this truck in July of 2014 with 42,000 miles on it from the original owner. He ordered the truck from Jim Quinlan in Clearwater, FL in 1998, had it upfitted and installed a Lance Legend 990EC camper in it. The truck has rarely ever towed anything over an 18' Sea Ray boat and has never been driven in the winter. The ONLY reason we are selling this truck is because it is too wide for what we need a truck to do. IT HAS NEVER BEEN WORKED OUT OF OR USED AS A WORK TRUCK! The camper in the truck is 100% fully loaded (gas/electric heat, a/c, new LED TV w/ digital antenna, three-way fridge, queen size bed, dinette/bed, "dry bathroom," meaning it has a separate shower stall, outdoor shower, awning (never been used) and much more. Camper hasn't been used more than a dozen times in its life). Both units are in excellent condition! The camper will be sold for 8,900obro, as comparable units will sell for over 40,000 new! The truck is equipped with a Class V Titan receiver hitch and reducer insert, Air Lift rear air springs, stainless steel brush guard with driving lights, and has a brake control box and additional hookup in the bed for a 5th wheel/camper. The tires on this truck are nearly new, as seen in the photos, and the wheel covers look great! The interior is clean and free of any stains and smells. Both us and the previous owners are non-smokers. All functions of the interior work as they should. There are no check engine lights, ABS lights or anything else to be concerned about on this truck. We fully serviced this truck less than 500 miles ago with an oil change, oil filter, fuel filter and undercarriage grease and lube. The metallic green exterior looks very well for the age of the truck, and other than a spot of clear missing on the hood (see photo, from removing pitch) it's a very nice looking rig. A light "rub" on the passenger side rear wheel well from touching one of the camper jacks is present, but will most likely polish off. From a few feet away, it's nearly unnoticeable. All exterior and interior lights work as they should, all accessories work as they should. The four driving lights on the brush guard are fused and wired on a separate switch on the dash and work as they should. Please note: The engine/transmission/powertrain in this truck has not been modified, programmed or improved in any way. This is an unmolested, completely stock Cummins truck! On 11/30, I pulled it out of storage and took much better photos of the truck so you can see just how clean it really is. The truck was washed just before it was put away over a month ago. As far as I know, the engine compartment hasn't been washed or detailed in any way. The only time this truck has seen snow is on 11/30 when I took photos and put it back in the warehouse. If you decide to purchase this vehicle, payment will need to be in the form of cash or a wire transfer. A 750 deposit via credit/debit card is required upon agreement. Payment for this vehicle must be received within seven consecutive days. If the buyer backs out of the deal OR otherwise cannot complete the purchase, THE DEPOSIT WILL BE REFUNDED LESS THE COST OF THIS AD LISTING FEE PLUS THE FEE TO LIST THIS AD AGAIN. ALL OFFERS ON THIS TRUCK WILL BE CONSIDERED AND I WILL REPLY TO ANY/ALL QUESTIONS AT MY EARLIEST CONVENIENCE. If the seller backs out or otherwise cannot complete the sale, the full deposit will be refunded. I can be reached at 207-270-8045 should you want to speak to me directly at any time from 6:30AM until 8:30PM, Eastern Standard Time. Thank you so much for checking our ad out. Please don't be afraid to make an offer on the entire package, as I can't move the camper without the truck!

Gauging reaction to the 2015 Dodge Charger Pursuit on Detroit highways
Sat, Feb 7 2015Steven Ewing and I kind of pretended to be cops a few weeks ago. No, not in the illegal way; we just took turns driving the 2015 Dodge Charger Pursuit around Detroit and its suburbs, learning invaluable life lessons along the way. A lot of those lessons came in the form of weird reactions from other drivers. Steve peeved his neighbors by surprising them in the parking lot, I can damn close to sitting in jail next to a murderer and we both caught our fair share of evil-eyed glances. One of my very first observations was a pronounced "bubble effect" when driving in traffic on the highway. Attempting to recreate the effect for the video camera, I grabbed Senior Producer Chris McGraw and we went for a ride in the name of pseudo psychology. The results weren't exactly as we'd predicted, but we had fun all the same. Get one more dose of your cop car fix, above.
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.
Only in Japan: Dodge van one-make racing series is a thing
Wed, Jul 15 2015Japan seems willing to embrace a level of automotive insanity that many other places lack. Whether it's 1,200-horsepower Nissan GT-Rs blasting through tight, tree-lined mountain roads or advertisements with dances for the Toyota Prius Plug-in, the country definitely has a unique way of expressing a love for autos. The D-Van Grand Prix might be one of our favorite examples yet of crazy Japanese car culture, because the annual, one-make race at the Ebisu Circuit is exclusively for heavily customized Dodge vans. Like many great things, this wonderfully crazy idea came from a little rule breaking. D-Van Grand Prix organizer Takuro Abe was at a track event for a motorcycle racing school, and vans were used to haul the bikes around. During lunch someone came up with the idea for a race. Ignoring that the big machines weren't actually allowed on the circuit, the drivers headed out. The popularity has just grown since then. These days, the racing vans absolutely aren't the stock machines from the event's inspiration. In addition to stripped interiors and track rubber that you might expect, the list of mods for them is a mile long. For every possible advantage, the racers fit them with things like Brembo brakes, cross-drilled rotors, heavy-duty transmissions, and much more. Seeing vans lumbering around the track is very weird at first, but the racers take the competition very seriously. These folks even employ all sorts of little tricks to coax the most from the machines. This is a fascinating motorsports story, but be sure to turn on the subtitles to understand the interviews with the competitors.
