See a short video at my youtube channel youtube.com/watch?v=TQ11xxgH3yE or search DodgeM887.

The Good: 
Dana 44 in front with disc brakes, Dana Spicer 60 in rear with drums.
318 v8, Automatic. 
4wd is all time has low loc, low, neutral, high, high loc. When in neutral the truck will not move. It has to be in high or low. It is a nice system like some jeeps have.
Ex-military M887 (tool truck) then it was a Missouri Fire truck. Now it has a flat bed that I put on.
32,700 original miles. Not rolled over odometer.
It has extra springs in the back so it is more like a 1 ton.
Was a western truck so no rust rot anywhere. Solid floors, rockers, cab, doors, ect. Fresh resto and repaint over this winter. It is now a charcoal gray metallic with Flat black flat bed, grill, wheels, bumpers. Bed liner on floor, bumpers, wheels, and flatbed frame.
Interior is black. No dash cracks. Has government plate still on dash.
New head gaskets, intake gaskets, valve seals on rebuilt heads. Valve guides are good, no smoke.
Reman 2bbl. carb. (older)
New brake pads, shoes, lines, master cylinder, front calipers.
New coil and cap and rotor.
No air, no smog stuff, manual steering. That is the way the US Gov. ordered it. You can buy the power steering stuff at a junk yard or new if some one wanted to convert it to power steering. I never needed it. I turns easy enough without power. Less to break down. You can easily upgrade to power steering in one afternoon and a few parts and a little money.
Factory plastic gas tank so it won't rust out. 

Runs great, drives great, for what it is. It starts right up. It is not a 2005 so don't think that it is going to run and ride like a modern truck. It is a heavy duty work truck and it is 36 years old so that means stiff ride, loose steering, road noise. Anyone who has driven a classic knows this comes with the territory. But it also means cheap to repair like $20 calipers, $40 rotors, $80 alternator....and no $350 fuel pump or $250 hub bearings and you can do it yourself in a matter of minutes to hours. Heck you could swap the whole engine and trans yourself in one day. It also has in my opinion better axles. These Dodge truck are about the same parts from 1973 to about 1993 when they changed styles so parts interchange. 
Has wide 16.5 steel wagon wheels. It has 33x12.5 tires. Comes with an extra set of the original narrower steel wheels (olive green) and military tires.
Looks great. Hard to find one of these trucks without total rust rot everywhere. 

The Bad:
It does have a trans leak at the pan or maybe the seal where the shift lever goes in. It shifts and drives no problem and it will not affect the function of the transmission ever. It is not a expensive fix, you don't even have to fix it. The fluid is not burned.
The dash light is out. 
The speedo bounces as the cable gets full of crud over time. I am soaking it in PB blaster which often fixes that. If not then you can ignore it or buy a new cable. The speed is also off a bit as the tires are larger than stock.

Other stuff:
It sat around my house for 6 years and was only driven on the property or on short trips into town, like less then 10 miles. It was never used at all some years. That is why I want to sell it, I am not using it and have too much stuff. It always started up and like I said above I replaced some parts. It could use at least a 1 inch body or susp. lift.

I am selling it as-is so if you live 3 hours away, I think you should trailer it going that far. Not because there is anything mechanically wrong, just incase something stupid like a radiator hose blows, or alternator quits or whatever. A cheap, quick easy fix near home turns into a pain 3 hours away and makes you unhappy with me. I don't want that! Trailer it unless you don't want to that is up to you. If you live local, feel free to drive it home. It will be better than the other 200K mile 90's 4x4 rust bombs out there for this price! 
It is a great sold truck.

Stellantis and Foxconn's new joint venture will focus on connectivity

Wed, May 19 2021

MILAN — Carmaker Stellantis and TaiwanÂ’s Foxconn announced plans to develop a jointly operated automotive supplier focusing on technology to make vehicles more connected, including artificial intelligence-based applications and 5G communications. Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares said the services that will be developed through the tie-up “will mark the next great evolution of our industry,” alongside fully electrified and hybrid powertrains. The deal brings together Stellantis, the worldÂ’s 4th-largest automaker formed this year by the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Peugeot, and Foxconn, a major supplier of iPhones. The companies said the venture would focus on such services as infotainment, the integration of telecommunications and computer systems, artificial intelligence-based applications, 5G communications, e-commerce channels and smart cockpit integration. The companies announced a non-binding memorandum of understanding to form a 50-50 joint venture called Mobile Drive, which will be based in the Netherlands and function as an automotive supplier also to other carmakers. The new venture will combine advanced consumer electronics, Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) to create new services “that will exceed customer expectations,” the companies said in a release. “Customers today and, in the future, demand and expect ever-increasing software-driven and creative solutions to connect the drivers and passengers with the vehicle inside and out,Â’Â’ Foxconn Chairman Young Liu.

Weekly Recap: Toyota propels hydrogen fuel cells

Sat, Jan 10 2015

Toyota 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.
