I bought this truck as new from a dealer in North Carolina in early 08 thinking that it was going to be with me for life. I drove this truck up to Winnipeg from North Carolina, took a long road trip to the West Coast and driven it on numerous weekend jaunts. Until two years ago, it wasn't even driven in the winters. Although the mileage is very low the bulk of it is highway. This is a one owner and one driver truck, except that I let a few relatives use it and took it to the wrong repair shop - that is why it has some blemishes, a cracked windshield cowl and the passenger door rattles over bumps. This is a 6 cylinder, 6 speed manual transmission short box truck. It is a highly desirable configuration to me, which provides really excellent gas mileage but gives power a plenty for most tasks. The Ram also provides a decent amount of storage behind the seats. I have added a K&N air intake system and it does add some extra horse power and fuel economy. Also added fog lamps, cruise, box rail caps. I installed a trailer hitch last year but have never towed with it, ball and other hitch parts included. Regularly maintained with additional preventative maintenance. It is a great truck, but I think I have to move on. Tires should have 20,000 miles left on them. Although only a few things show up in photos, if you are seriously interested in this truck please email me for more photos or information. You may have the vehicle inspected prior to the sale. 

As this vehicle was imported from the US, it would have to be reimported if sold to a US resident, which might involve a reimportation fee of 1% . If so, I will provide the original title  and transport it to the Pembina/Emerson border crossing for your pick up. I will assist in the process as your agent and pay the reimportation fee.  If you live in Canada or an interesting part of the US, I may be prepared to drive it to you. The BIN price includes the truck and my time in facilitating the transport to you etc., but not my expenses, if any, which are in addition to the purchase price.

Fri, Apr 10 2015

Of the affected vehicles, FCA US reports there are 1,451 in the US, 160 in Canada, 17 in Mexico and 59 of them outside of NAFTA. After receiving three reports of doors either not closing or opening while driving a low speeds, FCA US engineers found a new sealant from a supplier didn't provide sufficient moisture protection to the electronic switches for the door latches.

As always, the recall repairs will be done at no cost to owners, and FCA US will be getting in touch with customers soon about the problem.

FCA US launched an investigation after the Company received three warranty claims linked to doors that failed to close or opened inadvertently while vehicles were moving at low speed. The Company is unaware of any related injuries or accidents. Engineers determined a sealant, newly adopted by a supplier, provided inconsistent moisture protection to the electronic switches that control the door latches.

Stellantis mega-merger gets approval from FCA, PSA shareholders

Mon, Jan 4 2021

MILAN — Shareholders of Fiat Chrysler and PSA Peugeot decisively voted Monday to merge the U.S.-Italian and French carmakers to create worldÂ’s 4th-largest auto company. Addressing separate meetings, both PSA Peugeot CEO Carlos Tavares and Fiat Chrysler Chairman John Elkann spoke of the “historic” importance of the vote, which combines legacy car companies that helped write the industrial histories of the United States, France and Italy. Before the merger is finalized, shares in the new company, to be called Stellantis, must the launched. It will be traded in Milan, New York and Paris. The marriage of PSA Peugeot and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is built on the promise of cost-savings in the capital-hungry industry, but what remains to be seen is if it will be able to preserve jobs and heritage brands in a global market still suffering from the pandemic. The deal will create the worldÂ’s fourth-largest carmaker, with the capacity to produce 8.7 million cars a year, behind Volkswagen, Toyota and Renault-Nissan, and create 5 billion euros in annual synergies.  “We are fully aware of the fact that together we will be stronger than individually,'' PSA CEO Carlos Tavares told a virtual gathering of eligible shareholders. “The two companies are in good health. These two companies have strong positions in their markets.” The new company will put together under one roof French mass-market carmakers Peugeot and Citroen, top-selling Jeep and Italian luxury and sports brands Maserati and Alfa Romeo - pooling companies that have helped define the industry in the United States, France and Italy. While the tie-up is billed as a merger of equals, the power advantage goes to PSA, with Tavares running Stellantis and holding the tie-breaking vote on the 11-seat board. Tavares is set to take full control of the company early this year, possibly by the end of January. Fiat Chrysler chairman John Elkann, heir to the Fiat-founding Agnelli family and Fiat ChryslerÂ’s biggest shareholder, will be the Stellantis chairman. Fiat Chrysler CEO Mike Manley will head North American operations, which is key to Tavares' long-time goal of getting a U.S. foothold for the French carmaker he has run since 2014, and the clear money-maker for Fiat Chrysler. Such a deal was long wanted by Fiat ChryslerÂ’s long-time CEO Sergio Marchionne, who had predicted the necessity of consolidation in the industry. He was unable to find a deal before his sudden death in July 2018.

NHTSA investigating 110,000 Ram 2500s and 3500s, one death alleged

Fri, 23 May 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has launched an investigation focusing on 110,000 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups from model years 2004 to 2006. One death has already been reported, according to NHTSA, due to a potential fault with the clutch interlocks on manual-transmission versions of the heavy duty pickup.
According to the report, these trucks can be started without depressing the clutch. There have been three reports so far, and as we mentioned above, one very sad incident seems to have resulted in the death of a child.
"One complaint involved an incident that occurred when a child was able to enter the vehicle and start the ignition without depressing the clutch. The vehicle then moved forward striking another child resulting in a fatality," NHTSA said in the investigation bulletin, which you can view below.
