1997 Dodge Ram 3500 dually extended cab 5.9L Cummins 12 valve turbo diesel, NV4500 5-speed manual transmission, rear wheel drive, Laramie SLT package w/leather interior, power drivers seat, tilt/cruise, power windows, power door locks, Cold A/C, AM/FM stereo w/CD, gooseneck hitch in bed and 2 inch receiver hitch attached to frame @ factory. I have owned this truck for the past eight years. When I purchased it, it had 199,600 miles on it. I purchase a factory rebuilt transmission, had it installed along with new Clutch and pressure plate(synchronizer was starting to make noise in 5th gear & would slip out of gear at times). Brakes were replaced @ about 215,000 miles, it now has 230k miles on it. Front tires have 4000-5000 miles on them. Rear tires still have decent tread. I have owned many new Dodge trucks every year from 1993 to 1999. I used to put 80-100,000 miles a year on them. Every fall, I would order a new truck and sell the previous year truck. I found the 1997 model year to be the most reliable. That’s why I decided to buy this one in 2006 because I could not justify buying a new truck to drive it only 3,500-4,000 miles a year. I am retiring this year and will be driving the Dodge truck even less, so I have decided to sell it. It has new paint( Colorado sun likes to fade the paint) & looks great, interior is showing signs of cracking from our dry climate, the rear seat has a sizeable tear (chunk) out of it. It was there when I got it. Being that it’s a work truck, it never bothered me enough to have it replaced. No rust as this truck was purchased new in western Kansas (Goodland) and has been in Colorado for the past 8 years. I have a copy of the original title from Kansas. It has the typical oil leaks for a diesel, nothing major. Also, I just noticed the dash vents aren’t working. The blend door blows cold air out defrost & floor vents & A/C blows cold. A vacuum line that operate the blend door may have come loose. Should be an easy fix. This is a good work truck. It is not new, but, it gets the job done. Take a look at the pictures that I have posted below. I think you’ll see how nice this truck is for the money.

Chrysler recalling 31k SUVs and vans

Fri, 06 Jun 2014

Chrysler is issuing recalls covering roughly 31,700 vehicles worldwide due to two separate problems. In both cases the company believes that most of the affected vehicles are either still on, or in transit to, dealer lots.
One recall covers roughly 10,700 Dodge Durango, Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee SRT models from the 2014 model year built between January 16 and April 17, 2014. The SUVs need a software update for the cruise control. It's possible that when the cruise is on and the driver presses on the throttle, the acceleration could last a second after the pedal is released or two seconds for the SRT. Afterward, they return to the speed originally set by the driver.
Chrysler says it isn't aware of any accidents, injuries or even reported incidents of this happening in the real world. Also, in all cases, if the driver presses on the brake, the cruise shuts off. The automaker believes that there are about 6,100 affected SUVs in the US, 950 in Canada, 425 in Mexico and 3,200 outside of North America. The software upgrade will be ready shortly, the company says.

Dodge Challenger Scat Pack adds power and noise, with a warranty

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

If you want to go fast, there's certainly nothing wrong with the Dodge Challenger SRT8. With 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque for 2014, there's certainly not much to complain about. But what if you want something more aftermarket in flavor? There's no shortage of options, but while turning to the tuner world will make your car plenty fast, that extra power won't just shred rear tires, it'll torch your warranty, as well. That's where Dodge's Scat Pack comes in.
With three stages of mods for both the 5.7 and 6.4-liter Hemi V8s Challenger (as well as the 5.7-liter Charger and, soon, the four-pot Dart), the Scat Pack cars give drivers all the power, aggression and noise of a heavily modded aftermarket car while maintaining the piece of mind provided by the Dodge warranty.
Power gets bumped up to 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque with the 6.4-liter Scat Pack, while the 5.7-liter can provide up to 58 hp and 47 lb-ft of torque to add to the stock engine's 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet. It's the latter engine that can really get some work done, with upgrades ranging from the mundane - intake and exhaust - to the racy, like the ported heads and high-flow headers.

Dodge Charger and Challenger go Plum Crazy for Woodward Dream Cruise

Wed, Aug 12 2015

Dodge will be rolling through a purple haze at the 2015 Woodward Dream Cruise on August 15 with the reintroduction of Plum Crazy to the color options on most trims of the 2016 Challenger and Charger. To premiere the latest use of the wild shade, the brand's display at the annual Detroit-area automotive event will be showing off violet versions of the 2016 Dodge Challenger 392 Hemi Scat Pack Shaker and Charger R/T Scat Pack. The brash tone originally debuted in 1970, but Dodge has kept the lavender hue special in recent years by limiting the option to specific trims. It was last offered during the 2014 model year on R/T and SRT trims of the two vehicles. Practically any buyer will be able to go Plum Crazy if they want. On the Challenger, the color will be available on the SXT Plus, R/T models, Hemi Scat Pack Shaker, SRT 392, and SRT Hellcat trims. The choices for the Charger will be similarly broad, including the SXT when ordered with 20-inch wheels, R/T versions, SRT 392, and SRT Hellcat. Customers desperately wanting a vehicle in the insanely violet shade will be able to place the first orders in September, and dealers will get the chance from October through the end of the year. Production of the lavender muscle cars will then commence in November. Dodge Debuts Plum Crazy Heritage Hue for 2016 Challenger and Charger at Woodward Dream Cruise, Provides Collector-demanded Production Numbers for High-impact Paint Colors New 2016 Dodge Challenger 392 HEMI Scat Pack Shaker and Charger R/T Scat Pack Models in Plum Crazy Will Be Shown at the Dodge Display at 13 Mile and Woodward Ave in Royal Oak, Mich.
