Up for Auction is a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT Quad Cab pickup truck. It has 65,595 miles as of this writing, will possibly have 100 more by the end of the auction. The truck is in Very Good Condition. It is spotless, newly waxed and detailed including engine bay, wheels & wheel wells, bed liner and interior. Everything works perfectly; there are no stray noises or vibrations. No stories at all. NADA values are $12,275 “Clean Trade-in” and $15,150 “Clean Retail”. I canvassed AutoTrader.com and Cars.com for similar trucks within 500 miles and found about 30 examples, with 57-146,000 miles, most missing some options, with asking prices in the range of about $13,000 to $17,000+. The truck is very well-equipped, with the SLT package (see window sticker in pictures), plus these notable Options: Towing Package, Bed Liner, Rear Sliding Window, and SIRRIUS satellite radio. Please see window sticker for complete list. There are also extra bits of chrome trim, etc., that I cannot find on the options, but you can see in the pictures. The truck also comes with the add-on rail bed gate (not pictured, never used, but I can send pictures to anyone who wants to see) and a 500/5,000 lbs. trailer hitch (used once). I bought this truck from the Dodge Dealer in Beaufort, SC, December 1, 2010. It had had one local owner before, and was maintained by the dealership. It had 37,860 miles and new tires (60,000 mile limited Warranty). I have driven the truck 28,100 miles, and that is just about in line with the tires: now 60% front tread, 50% rear tread, based on the Firestone Specification of 20/32” new tread depth. It has been maintained by the Dodge dealer in Bluffton, SC ever since I bought it - Nothing out of scheduled maintenance ever happened, but they have all the records. I bought a Carefree Car Protection Mechanical Failure Contract, Gold Coverage, from Chrysler, adding 3 years and 36,000 miles. The Service Contract is good to 73,860 miles or 12/01/2013. This is transferrable to the new owner for a fee of $40.00, which Buyer will pay, if desired. Flaws: there are 2 little picks in the upholstery of the rear seats (shown in video), a slight ripple in the drivers side rear chrome bumper (hard to see, but look at photo of left quarter), a very few minor scratches around the truck – I could not see them when I was taking these pictures, but I know there are about 4-5 places, plus a touched-up hand-sized area of little scrapes on the corner of the painted vinyl front bumper, driver’s side. There is a very tiny stone scar on the passenger side upper edge of the windshield, that is 1/4 ” diameter, and has been there since I bought the truck, with no change since then. If there are any questions, please call Hank at (843) 290-4368 Thanks for looking at my Auction and Good Luck! Please look at the descriptive, but very amateurish video:

Best car infotainment systems: From UConnect to MBUX, these are our favorites

Sun, Jan 7 2024

Declaring one infotainment system the best over any other is an inherently subjective matter. You can look at quantitative testing for things like input response time and various screen load times, but ask a room full of people that have tried all car infotainment systems what their favorite is, and you’re likely to get a lot of different responses. For the most part, the various infotainment systems available all share a similar purpose. They aim to help the driver get where they're going with navigation, play their favorite tunes via all sorts of media playback options and allow folks to stay connected with others via phone connectivity. Of course, most go way beyond the basics these days and offer features like streaming services, in-car performance data and much more. Unique features are aplenty when you start diving through menus, but how they go about their most important tasks vary widely. Some of our editors prefer systems that are exclusively touch-based and chock full of boundary-pushing features. Others may prefer a back-to-basics non-touch system that is navigable via a scroll wheel. You can compare it to the phone operating system wars. Just like some prefer Android phones over iPhones, we all have our own opinions for what makes up the best infotainment interface. All that said, our combined experience tells us that a number of infotainment systems are at least better than the rest. WeÂ’ve narrowed it down to five total systems in their own subcategories that stand out to us. Read on below to see our picks, and feel free to make your own arguments in the comments. Best infotainment overall: UConnect 5, various Stellantis products Ram 1500 Uconnect Infotainment System Review If thereÂ’s one infotainment system that all of us agree is excellent, itÂ’s UConnect. It has numerous qualities that make it great, but above all else, UConnect is simple and straightforward to use. Ease of operation is one of the most (if not the single most) vital parts of any infotainment system interface. If youÂ’re expected to be able to tap away on a touchscreen while driving and still pay attention to the road, a complex infotainment system is going to remove your attention from the number one task at hand: driving. UConnect uses a simple interface that puts all of your key functions in a clearly-represented row on the bottom of the screen. Tap any of them, and it instantly pulls up that menu.

2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat revealed [UPDATE]

Wed, 13 Aug 2014

Almost immediately after we drove the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, we began wondering: what's next? Pumping 707 horsepower into the Challenger seemed so crazy - and so intoxicating - we just assumed that Dodge would try that trick again.
Rumors swirled about a Charger Hellcat. Frankly it makes even more sense than the Challenger version. The Charger is a bigger car, and Dodge has never been shy about dropping monster engines under its hood. Hell (cat), we've seen Charger mules running around town that appeared to be the super sedan.
And finally, it's here. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat was revealed today at a preview event near Detroit, and it will be a centerpiece of the Chrysler display this weekend at the Woodward Dream Cruise.

2003-04 Dodge Viper recalled for sudden airbag deployment

Fri, 15 Feb 2013

As if driving the old Dodge Viper (not the fancy new SRT model) isn't intimidating enough, imagine trying to wrangle that V10 beast and then suddenly having the airbags deploy. Yikes. That's apparently what could happen to some 3,660 Viper models from the 2003 and 2004 model years, and as such, Chrysler has issued a recall.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, part of the car's airbag control module may fail, causing the bags or seatbelt pre-tensioners to deploy without warning while the vehicle is in operation. That's a dangerous scenario in any car, let alone one offering insane horsepower a near-total paucity of safety nannies should things get squirrely.
Owners will be notified this month about the recall, though a remedy is not expected to be available until later this year. Scroll down for the full NHTSA statement.
