General Information
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This listing is for the truck mentioned in the title. I traded my parents for this truck about a year ago because it was safer than my last vehicle, but I can no longer pay for the gas needed to use it. So, if you've been wanting a large truck with a giant engine, comfortable interior, nice sound system, and 4x4 / towing capabilities you're in luck. This was my parent's farm work truck before, so I'll mention that keeping the body in perfect condition was never their first priority. I'll post the rest of the information about the truck below.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Condition
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Functionally, the truck doesn't have any major issues that I've noticed. It'll need new rear brakes put in pretty soon, but I already purchased replacements and they'll come with the truck. You can either put them in yourself or have mechanic do it, but at least you won't have to buy them. The AC system will probably need to be recharged at some point too since it works fine so long as you're moving, but if you stop it will get warm. The only other weird quirk is that occasionally the oil gauge will disconnect and then reconnect a few seconds later. I checked the oil level the last time this happened and it was fine, so I don't really know what's going on there. Otherwise the truck is perfect mechanically. The last major repair done to it was last January when the serpentine belt tensioner broke and had to be replaced. Since then, there have been no check engine lights, only a temporary check gauges light when that oil gauge disconnects.

Body wise, it's completely structurally sound. There are some small dents or scratches on the passenger rear door, quarter panel, tailgate, driver side quarter panel, and a very tiny one on the driver side door. One much larger scratch runs along the passenger quarter panel and ends slightly into the passenger rear door. Also, the end of the tailpipe is somewhat crushed in from another vehicle, but it hasn't affected how the truck runs. Like I said, this was a farm truck before.

The interior is in fantastic condition with the only damage being one burn and one rip in the driver seat from the second to last owners. The sound system can make the plastics buzz with some high frequencies, but otherwise sounds amazing. Really, it's just a quiet and comfortable interior.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Notes
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall I really like this truck and would love to keep it, but I can't justify the 13mpg it gets in town, which is primarily where I use it. Plus the 5.9L engine is overkill for almost anything I do, though towing with it the few times I have has been amazing. Thanks for looking!

Dodge Dart getting hatchback variant... sort of

Thu, 25 Apr 2013

In other parts of the world, Fiat builds and sells a version of the Dodge Dart called the Viaggio, and it appears that in addition to the current sedan bodystyle, a new hatchback version of the car is also in the works. Autocar says that the general manager for China's Guangzhou-Fiat joint venture, John Burton, has confirmed that a new Viaggio hatchback will be revealed by the end of this year before it goes on sale in early 2014.
The Viaggio will soon be joined by the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, which in China will be called the Liberty Light, at the Guangzhou-Fiat plant. While the idea of a Dodge Dart hatchback might be enough to enable most of us to forget about the Dodge Caliber, a North American variant doesn't appear to be in the cards. We reached out to Chrysler PR boss Rick Deneau, and he offered a succinct: "No plans at this time."

Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.
