2004.5 Ram 3500 single rear wheel, SLT Laramie 4x4, 73K miles, 325hp HO 5.9L Cummins Quad cab, AC, cruise, fog lights, black leather / dark grey inserts interior with heated power seats, Infinity Sound system (cassette and CD and top end stereo). All power options (windows, doors, etc). Chrome trim package. This was top of line with nearly every option they offered that year.

This year was the first of the new common rail injection 600 engine (they call this the 2004.5 because the upgrade was mid year), high out and significant step from prior years in HP and torque. These trucks also have disk brakes front AND rear (In 2002 they upgraded rear brakes from drum to disk).

Everything works well. Well cared for. Conventional diesel Rotella 15W-40 in engine. Royal purple fluids in everything else; transmission, both differentials and transfer case. I babied this and prior owner was diesel mechanic and he did the same. Some rust bubbling at bottom of tailgate, and a few small chips.

Aftermarket upgrades include; The weak spot on these trucks was the automatic transmission . Truck is upgraded with ATS stage 4 transmission ($6500 for parts alone and add another $1K for install). It will be the last transmission it will every need. ATS Co-pilot to manage shifts and OD lockup, Bully Dog tuner offers 4 stages of electronic engine management from economy to heavy/aggressive towing (setup for mild tow currently and I tow my car trailer like there's nothing behind me),full performance exhaust (full 5" from turbo/exhaust manifold back) with 6" Silverton stainless exhaust tip, AFE performance air intake with oiled cloth filter, chromed side steps , Tough Country 6 inch suspension lift, Pro Comp 35x12.5x17 tires (~50% left) mounted on original chrome rims, also have mounted original Michelins LT265x75x17 (these are nearly new treads) on original chrome rims in my garage. I have all original suspension parts to bring this back to stock height (with new MOOG bushings). I intended to remove the lift but never got to this. There may be other things I cannot remember.

Fully equipped for trailer hauling with electronic trailer brake control and two hitches. Original hitch AND new Curt hitch that permits pulling up to 15,000lbs without weight distribution devices. I don't like adding the extra weight distribution things. I just hook up, test lights and brakes, and go. I only tow my classic car in a trailer to car shows a couple of times a year.

Fiberglass ARE cap (blue but not exact color match) with sliding front window (to match slide opening cab back window) and opening back windows, and with roof rack on top. Plastic bedliner.

Ralph Gilles responds to Dodge rumors, says brand is 'here to stay'

Fri, 12 Jul 2013

This is why we love Ralph Gilles. While in Italy hanging out with a group of Viper Club members in Europe, the SRT boss took the time to respond to a question directed at him on Instagram in regards to the future of Dodge.
Recent reports have painted a bleak picture for Dodge, but Gilles defended Chrysler's full-line brand by stating that the rumors are, "all rumors, Dodge is here to stay! It may get more focused going forward but not killed!" The idea of a "more focused" Dodge brand could lend some credibility to reports that the Grand Caravan and Durango are on their way out, which would leave Dodge solely as a car, or car-based, automaker.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.

Chrysler to reveal next minivan at 2016 Detroit Auto Show

Tue, Jan 13 2015

All eyes in the industry are presently fixed on this year's Detroit Auto Show, but over at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, they're already looking towards next year's show. That's when the Italian-American automaker says it'll unveil the next Chrysler minivan. The announcement, made on the FCA Corporate Twitter feed, promises that the next Pentastar minivan will debut in January 2016, which (along with the hashtag NAIAS) suggests the next-generation family hauler will debut at the Detroit show next year. Auburn Hills is expected to replace the current Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan with two all-new models: one keeping the minivan form, and the other shifting into more of a crossover. Just which nameplate gets the new form factor, and which will debut at Cobo next year, we don't know. Odds are good that it'll be the minivan not the CUV, though. Chrysler's minivan has been a winning business for the Detroit automaker, pioneering the segment, outselling the competition and marketing around the world under more brands and nameplates than just about anything else in the industry. The vehicle has been sold as the Dodge Caravan, Chrysler Town & Country, Chrysler Voyager, Plymouth Voyager, Lancia Voyager, Ram Cargo Van and Volkswagen Routan, to say nothing of long-wheelbase Grand versions of many of the aforementioned nameplates.
