Here it is, one of the rarest Dodge Diesels ever produced. It is the 1998 12 Valve Cummins with a 5 speed transmission, 4 wheel drive and it is a short bed! There was only around 400 of them ever made!

I am the second owner of this truck. The original owner is an older gentleman that I work with.  The reason this truck has so many miles is that he lives 80 miles away from work and he mostly drove this pickup. I was really excited when he sold it to me earlier this year. I thought I would never sell it, but we are expecting another baby and these quad cabs are not designed for reverse car seats. When I bought it, the truck had a service bed on it. I took it off and tried to find a regular bed for it but could not find one close by. I have a brother in law that is a talented Black Smith and he designed and built the flat bed for this truck.

As you can see from the pictures the truck is not brand new, so if you bid on it keep that in mind. It runs great. It shifts perfect. The transmission has been replaced by the original owner. He also had the injection pump rebuilt and the turbo. It has also had the front end worked on and other minor repairs. It has a Banks monster exhaust muffler. Besides that it is completely stock.  Everything works in the truck. This includes the 4x4. I put tires on it a few months ago and they only have a few thousand miles on them. There is a toggle switch on the dash that is for the flood light on the bed. In the picture of the flat bed, I put a board to cover my license plate. When the service bed was on the truck it had an auxiliary tank and that was the switch for the pump. Please bid knowing that the truck is 16 years old. Bidders that do not have any bidding history please email me first. Ask me any questions. If I can’t answer I still work with the original owner, so I can ask him. Local pick up only.

I don’t really know what a truck like this is worth, so I put the reserve around what I bought it for. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

Thank you!

 This truck has been very well care for. The original owner had all the maintenance performed by the local Dodge dealer. This is the same dealer that he bought the truck. I am located about 3 hours from Phoenix or Albuquerque. If you fly into one of those cities I can pick you up in the Dodge. Please feel free to ask any questions.

Thank you

Chrysler recalling 280k Dodge Ram 1500 pickups over axle seizures

Fri, Dec 19 2014

Following a June investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will be recalling 280,000 Dodge Ram pickups from model year 2005. The issue, NHTSA told The Detroit News, centered on a loose pinion nut, which could cause the rear axle to seize and, potentially, the driveshaft to detach. The affected vehicles were built between January of 2004 and August of 2005, while of the 280,000 trucks, only 257,000 were sold in the US market. According to The News, the recall will begin on February 13, and will see owners report to dealerships to have "a retention feature" added to the pinion nut.

Chrysler Recalling 870,000 SUVs For Brake Defect

Wed, Apr 2 2014

Chrysler 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.

Stellantis will enter joint venture with Samsung SDI for EV batteries

Tue, Oct 19 2021

SEOUL — South Korean battery maker Samsung SDI Co Ltd and global automaker Stellantis NV have agreed to jointly produce electric vehicle (EV) batteries for the North American market, a person familiar with the matter said on Tuesday. Samsung SDI, an affiliate of South Korean tech giant Samsung Electronics, already has EV battery plants in South Korea, China and Hungary, which supply customers such as BMW and Ford. "The two companies (Samsung SDI and Stellantis) have struck a MOU (memorandum of understanding) to produce EV batteries for North America," the person with knowledge of the matter told Reuters. The source spoke of condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter. The person said the location of the battery joint venture is under review and will be announced later. In July, Reuters reported that Samsung SDI may build a battery plant in the United States, citing a company source. South Korea's Yonhap news agency earlier reported the two companies plan to build a factory in the United States, citing industry sources. Samsung SDI and Stellantis did not have immediate comment when reached by Reuters. Stellantis on Monday struck a preliminary deal with battery maker South Korea's LG Energy Solution (LGES) to produce battery cells and modules for North America. Shares of Samsung SDI were up 2.6% as of 0300 GMT, versus a 0.6% rise in the KOSPI benchmark index.
