I have for sale an original and 1 owner 2003 Dodge Ram 3500 Cummins 5.9 Turbo Diesel Dually with 147k miles. This truck is a true work horse that will pull and push anything in its way.


Before I go any further I want to be extremely clear and honest. This truck is a 2003 and is in very good condition, however there are a few small imperfections on the truck.  This is not a show room truck but the truck is in clean and very presentable. 

The car currently has 147k miles and always maintained since new. This is a one owner truck and I still have all the documents for this vehicle when bought new. If you are not familiar with the Laramine edition, it is fully loaded with a Alpine sound system, leather seats, steering wheel controls, heated seats, CD player, wood grain dash, etc. 

Anything on the truck that needs or needed to be address was always repaired immediately and by a diesel mechanic shop. I have a lot of receipts for the work performed. Off the top of my head I will break down the truck.

**Exterior** (I would rate it an 8 out of 10)
-Dodge White, body is in good condition with a few small dings, nothing major and no rust. There is a quarter size dent on the hood and a small depression on the roof of the truck. 
-Painted White Bug Deflector in front
-Tow Mirrors which fold and extend out.
-Tinted Overhead lights
-Tinted third brake and rear tail lights
-New front bumper (replaced due to age)
-New front valance (replaced due to age)
-New lower spoiler (replaced due to age)
-Full Size Tool Box (not included in sale)
-Brand New Wipers
-Rear bumper was spray painted chrome and has dents on it. I would replace it $185.00 for a new bumper.


**Interior** (Rate it an 8 out of 10)
-All original and clean
-Driver seat is worn and has a small rip (see picture)
-Rear seats are in excellent condition however, they have a few small grease stains on them
-Have floor mats which protected the original carpet
-Original carpet and floor mats in good condition
-Only issue with the interior, when I click the unlock on the remote key or from the interior, the doors don't unlock. The module inside the truck needs to be replaced.

**Engine and Drivetrain**
-Truck starts up with zero hesitation, does not smoke, tick, knock, VERY VERY SOLID DIESEL MOTOR!!! Not even broken in. 
-Oil replaced religiously 7k miles with diesel 15w-40 oil
-Transmission flushed everything 25k miles. Current had a flush 2k miles ago and oil is bright red. Very Clean and no issues with the transmission. Transmission shifts extremely smooth, OD works perfectly. 
-Front and Rear Differential fluid replaced with synthetic oil every 10k miles. Both units had fluids replaced 2k miles ago.
-New OEM alternator (12/2012)
-New A/C Compressor (02/2012)
-New Idle Tensioner (12/2012)
-New serpentine belt (12/2012)
-Replaced Inline Lift Pump (5/2013)
-Replaced Fuel Filter (5/2013) 
-S&B Short Ram Intake and Filter
-Replaced both high pressure transmission lines and fittings
-5" Straight Pipe Flo-Pro exhaust with a 5"-6" tip
-AC Needs to be charged. 


**Suspension/Brakes/Tires**
-New front hub U-Joints (Right and Left) (10/2011)
-New U joint in 4x4 shaft.
-New front sway bar link arms. Replaced both sides.
-4 (new) Rough Country white shocks with red boots all around (2k miles max)
-2" Spacer up front (to level out truck) (2k miles max)
-New Front and Rear Rotors
-New Brake Pads all around
-Adjusted E-Brake Cable
-6(SIX!!) 285/70/17 Goodyear all terrain tires (Cost $2500.00) tires have 5k on them max! Tires grab excellent in snow and rain. Tires also ride extremely smooth. 
-Alignment (11/2012)


**Plow**
Truck comes with a Western Plow set up bought new in 2010. I believe the plow is just around 7.6" wide. Cutting edge is in good shape and has the flap on top to keep snow down. Oil was replaced before the start of the season.


I hope I am not being repetitive on this listing but I would rather be honest with the truck then not disclose an issue. The two issues with the truck as listed in the action are 1-The interior lock module needs to be replaced, the windows all work but the unlock and lock button does not unlock and of the locks. You have to do it manually.
2-The AC needs to be charged.

The Exterior of the truck has a small dent on the rear half of the passenger side rear door. The bed is in good condition but shows some signs of wear and tear. This truck was only used for personal use, no heavy equipment used in the truck.

The only towing I do with this truck is my 21 foot boat, no gooseneck trailer, never had any extension for that either. The bottom of the bed is in very good condition with no rust. The frame rails are extremely solid, some areas have a slight surface rust but nothing any where close to rusting through. I really enjoy this truck a lot, but personally I don't have the use for it any more.  I don't have use for a 1-ton truck.  If you are on the market for a new truck and cant afford 60k for a new truck  diesel dually this is for you!!  I am asking 18500.00 OBO. I am located in Tenafly NJ 07670. I will not ship this truck, but I will assist the new buyer if the truck needs to be shipped. The truck is being sold as is with no warranties expressed or implied.

Travis Pastrana signs with Dodge for another year, brings partner Bryce Menzies [w/video]

Sun, 14 Apr 2013

Dodge and SRT Motorsports announced that the Dodge Dart will be returning for its sophomore season of the Global Rallycross Championship with a two-car team fielded by Pastrana Racing. Travis Pastrana drove his GRC Dart to victory lane in the fourth race of the car's inaugural season, and his race team is looking for even more success with the addition of off-road racer Bryce Menzies behind the wheel of the second car.
The 2013 GRC season kicks off on April 21 in Brazil with plenty of dirt-spewing, ramp-jumping action. Scroll down for a video from the cars' main sponsor, Red Bull, and a press release from Chrysler.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has 707 glorious horsepower [w/video]

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

Hold onto your butts. "600-plus horsepower" is what we were told to expect from the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT with its 6.2-liter supercharged Hellcat V8 engine. But as we've just learned, those were incredibly conservative numbers. Dodge has officially announced that the range-topping Challenger will hit the asphalt with 707 - seven hundred and seven - horsepower, making it the "most powerful muscle car ever."
Of course, 707 hp is only part of the story, as the Hellcat has also been confirmed to produce 650 pound-feet of torque. All that power will run exclusively to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission that differs from other Challengers. The new gearbox, 8HP90 (rather than the 8HP70) is "upgraded to handle the extra power and torque," says Dan Reid, SRT's manager of product design and motorsports.
We certainly hope you're prepared to spend a ton of money replacing tires.
