2003 Dodge Ram 3500 Dually Slt Cummins Diesel 4wd With Torklift Turnbuckles on 2040-cars
Bremerton, Washington, United States
|
Runs very well. Engine, brakes, transmission are all well maintained with documentation for service performed last three years. All 4 rear tires are essentially brand new (Dec 2013). I will provide a final oil change prior to sale.
Comes with a frame-mounted Torklift mounting system for truck campers (I paid about $1000 for the installation back in 2010) which which will easily accommodate any camper out there. I bought this truck in 2009 with 63000 miles and have put 50, 000 miles on it. I've never towed anything with it except for one 2000 mile trip with a small U-Haul trailer. I did have a 2000 lb truck camper on it for two years. Mileage-wise, I get 19-20 mpg on the interstate, and average about 17 mpg in town. Known deficiencies: front tires are low tread. Rear bumper has some rusty spots and some white paint spots. Tailgate has some scratches. Driver's side controller for right rear window rolls the window down but not up (the right rear controller rolls it up without a problem). Bug deflector fractured in one spot with a minor dent to the hood from an errant golf ball. Documented Maintenance History (since I've owned it, and not counting regular oil changes): -in late 2010 I completely replaced and refilled the entire brake system, but I am missing that receipt 5/25/2011 Replaced Rear U-joint 01/11/2012 Replaced Muffler 05/04/2012 23-point vehicle inspection, replaced upper and lower ball joints both sides, replaced axle u-joints and hub bearings 02/14/2013 Replaced serpentine belt, drained/refilled transmission fluid, flush brake fluid, cooling system flush, replace right outer tie rod, wheel alignment, replace fuel filter, valve adjustments, mount and balance six tires, replace thermostat, replace exhaust pipe 12/13/2013 Replaced 4 rear tires with new Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain tires |

Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]
Wed, 23 Oct 2013In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.
This 93-car Iowa auction is like a Big 3 classic muscle museum
Tue, Aug 27 2019Bill "Coyote" Johnson has been buying cars since high school and has amassed a collection totaling 113 vehicles, according to NBC 6 News. But time has changed his motivations and priorities, and he's decided to auction 93 of those cars, many of which are classic muscle from Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Plymouth and Pontiac. The megasale will take place Sept. 14, 2019, in Red Oak, Iowa, at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds. A 1969 Plymouth Road Runner infected Coyote with a love for Detroit muscle when he was just a teenager, and his desire quickly turned into an obsession. He's spent the past 40 years finding, buying and working on a variety of makes and models. Unlike some collectors, Coyote didn't discriminate against certain brands and has rides from each of the Big 3 automakers. Included in the auction are Camaros, Satellites, Super Bees, Chargers, Challengers, Barracudas, Coronets, GTOs, Mustangs, Cutlasses and others. Possibly the most intriguing aspect of the auction is that all of these cars will be sold as-is with no reserve. Many of them will need work, depending on quality standards, but this seems like a golden opportunity to find a classic car without leaving a bank account in shambles. The auctions are open for bidding online now, and the full auction will take place on September 14. Check out the full listings and bid at VanDerBrink Auctions.
MotorWeek relives '80s coupes with Dodge Daytona, Ford Escort EXP
Thu, Aug 6 2015Get ready for a wave of nostalgia and the rapid realization of the huge progress in performance cars over the last 30 years. For its latest Retro Review, MotorWeek takes a look back at two, front-wheel drive coupes from the '80s that seem to have entirely vanished from the roads today. Both the 1986 Dodge Daytona CS and the 1986.5 Ford Escort EXP were considered affordable, sporty options in their day, but the passage of time hasn't been kind to either of their specs. The Daytona certainly looks the part of a performance machine with a body that's reminiscent of other '80s coupes, like the third-gen Chevrolet Camaro. However with 146 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque from a 2.2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, acceleration wasn't exactly a strong suit. MotorWeek complained about copious torque steer, as well. The optional CS suspension upgrade package on this Daytona was apparently a nod to Carroll Shelby who was working with Dodge at the time. If anything, the Escort EXP withstands the test of time even worse. As a two-seat coupe, you might have expected Ford's engineers to really turn up the performance to fit the sporty image that the exterior conveyed. That didn't really happen, and depending on which model buyers ordered, they got either 86 horsepower with a 1.9-liter engine or the "high-output" version of that mill with 108 hp.
