2004 Dodge Ram 3500 Slt Crew Cab Pickup 4-door 5.9l on 2040-cars
Baker, Louisiana, United States
|
I am selling my 2004 Dodge Ram 3500 SLT Diesel Pickup. I bought this truck new and am the only owner, so I know the entire history. If you have any questions, just ask. Here are the basics:
Year 2004 Single wheel 3500 (looks like 2500) 248,000 miles. Daily driver, so will have around 249,000 by the time the auction is over. 2wd 4 door Black Automatic transmission rebuilt at 234,000 3:73 rear end 5.9L HO Cummins engine 2-5/16 5th wheel ball Spray in bed liner 6 way plug for trailer lights New Michelin tires ($1000) - less than 5,000 miles non-smoker Great mileage. 18+ mpg to and from work. 21+ on highway. Here are the negatives: Truck has a dent under the left rear tail light from jack-knifing a trailer. Cruise control works on flat ground, but kicks out on hills and won't come back on until the truck is restarted. I think it is not holding a vacuum, but I haven't been able to track down the leak. The driver side visor won't stay all the way up. The vents make noise on the passenger side floorboard when turning the heater on. Positives: I have never had any major mechanical trouble with the truck at all. No injector issues, oil leaks, computer issues, etc. It has been very dependable. I would not hesitate to drive it cross country. Oil has been changed every 5,000 miles. I have done maintenance myself on brakes, rotors, shocks, belts, etc. on an as needed basis. The interior is very clean compared to most of the Dodge interiors I have seen from this generation. The seat is not torn from getting in and out, no cracks on the dash, and the armrest doesn't have a hole in it. And the best part of all is that the truck is converted to run on diesel or veggie oil with a system that I bought from Golden Fuel Systems. The system was installed at 117,000 miles. I have an auxiliary fuel tank that is about 60 gallons to hold the oil. There is a heat exchanger in the tank plumbed to the water pump that circulates antifreeze to warm up the oil. Once it's up to operating temperature, flip the switch and burn straight vegetable oil. The system includes a Racor filter, auxiliary fuel pump, auxiliary fuel gauge, and fuel pressure gauge to monitor when the filters need to be changed. When I first converted I had trouble with the stock fuel lift pump, so it now has a heavy duty FASS pump. I will include the collection pump and storage barrels with the sale and if you are local I can try to hook you up with the place where I currently get my oil from. The system has worked great for me and I estimate I have saved over $10k in fuel costs using it. I am only selling because I will be moving to snow country soon and will need a 4 wheel drive. If you have any questions, I can be reached at 225-two 7 eight - one 2 three 2. |

This SEMA special drag race is absurdly awesome
Fri, Dec 5 2014The SEMA Show came and went last month, and it showed us a ton of heavily modded goodies to dream about during the long, cold winter. The Motor Trend Channel on YouTube is keeping the party rolling a little longer, though, with a drag race inspired by the aftermarket event. All of the hosts were supposed to borrow a vehicle from the show for the big race, but only two of them actually cajoled companies into lending their wares. Still, the result includes four very cool and extremely different examples of the breadth of the automotive hobby. First up, there's a 1955 Chevrolet with a 535-cubic-inch (8.8-liter) Hemi V8 stuffed under the hood. Appropriately, it's dubbed the Blasphemi, and with skinny tires up front, fat rubber in the rear and a stripped interior, this this is made to go very fast in a straight line. Next, there's a stock Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat boasting 707 horsepower. Plus, host Jessi Lang has her dog riding shotgun for the race. A Chevy Sonic RS with some body mods, downpipe and intake is also competing. Finally, the most bizarre of the quartet is a custom 1958 Jeep Forward Control with a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and treads to replace the wheels. Obviously, the Blasphemi and Hellcat are the only two that really have a chance of winning, but check out the video to see which one crosses the finish line first.

2016 Dodge Viper ACR is ready to take a bite out of the Corvette Z06 [w/video]
Fri, May 8 2015The Dodge Viper ACR is back, and as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles tells it, it's the most venomous breed ever born. Before you get too excited, the 8.4-liter V10 produces 645 horsepower; five more than the standard Viper and five less than the supercharged Chevrolet Corvette Z06. It's unclear why Dodge didn't extract more from the huge engine, although we somehow imagine that certain people in Maranello, Italy had a say in the matter. Instead of blessing the ACR variant with bunches of extra output, Dodge instead turned to an aggressive aerodynamics package that it claims delivers nearly a ton of downforce at the Viper's maximum speed of 177 miles per hour. The total aero package includes an adjustable, twin-element, carbon-fiber rear wing, carbon-fiber diffuser, an extendable front splitter, and dive planes. Those big louvers on the hood? Yeah, they're removable, too. The "race-tuned" suspension uses coil-over Bilstein shocks that offer ten different settings and up to three inches of height adjustment. Kumho Ecsta V720 tires were built specifically for the Viper ACR, and come in 355/30 in back and 295/25 in front, with 19-inch wheels at all four corners. Along with the aero improvements, Dodge is claiming the Viper can pull a race-car-like 1.5Gs in higher-speed turns. Carbon-ceramic brakes with six-piston calipers add the stopping power that's greater or equal to the ACR's cornering performance. Dodge was also keen to reduce weight, taking some rather dramatic measures in the effort. The stereo has just three speakers, while the electric function was removed from the seats. Even the carpet has been replaced with a "lightweight" alternative. Finally, Dodge is offering up the innovative 1 of 1 customization it pioneered with the Viper GT earlier this year. That means that not only can you get the fastest Viper ever built, but it'll be entirely your own when you take delivery.
Chrysler Recalling 870,000 SUVs For Brake Defect
Wed, Apr 2 2014Chrysler is recalling nearly 870,000 SUVs because corrosion may make the vehicles' brakes harder to use. Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from the 2011 through 2014 model years are involved. Chrysler says crimp joints in the brake boosters can corrode if they're exposed to water. If the water freezes, the boosters won't aid braking as they usually do. Chrysler began investigating after some customers said their brakes felt too firm when pressed down. The company knows of one accident, but no injuries, due to the defect. Dealers will install a shield to protect the boosters for free and replace boosters that aren't working properly. Chrysler has since changed the design to make the boosters more corrosion resistant. Chrysler will notify owners of the recall, which involves 867,795 vehicles.
