*no Reserve* 1988 Dodge Ram Van B250 Rv Camper Conversion Low Miles Drives Well on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
This dodge ram van is a beast and don't want to see it go but it's time for it to give someone else an epic adventure. This van must be picked up and paid for in full by the 11th December. Pickup from around downtown LA. Please don't bid if that can't be done as you will be disappointed. This is a NO RESERVE auction so winning bidder is a winner. This is honestly a bargain. It's 1988 so it's not perfect or necessary pretty, but it has been proven to do the job and provide a good time in the meantime. This is a conversion van so it has a fridge, stove, sink, bench seats that face each other and fold into a bed when needed. Not sure if the fridge, stove and sink work never really needed them or tested them properly. Can sleep 3 people on the bed, 1 on the floor, 1 in the passenger seat and one in the drivers seat if needed. Front seats are captain chairs and comfortable as hell. Passenger seat can rotate all the way around. New sony CD player and rear speakers. Built some sweet shelves in the back as well. Plenty of places for storage. Heater is amazing, has both front and rear, never tested the AC. Removable table that's great for card games. Cruise control is good. Also comes with 2 jacks, jumper leads, spare tire and a bunch of tools as well. Will have a bit of camping gear we can throw in for a few extra bucks too if interested like sleeping bags and chairss. Has a cb radio but no antenna, lights for the rear of the van and some material that we use for curtains. It's got a bunch of new parts and what not as well. We invested 400 bucks on new rear brake cylinders in November. Less than 70 thousand miles on the odometer. Reliable and a pleasure to drive. Engine and everything under the hood is good. Tires bought in November this year so good tread. Minor scratches and dings that you'd expect for a vehicle of this age. Interior carpet could use a clean, some tears in fabric and some stains here and there. Passenger power window doesn't work, power locks don't work. Gas gauge doesn't work (missing sender line from fuel tank) and small hole on top of fuel tank where sender line was. I have driven 4000 miles up and down mountains with it in this condition, doesn't leak unless you overfill the tank or brake suddenly. Wouldn't cost too much to fix if required. Driven this bad boy over 11000 miles across country in rain, snow, heat, up mountains, down mountains and even in a blizzard, it's tough and will be sad to see it go. Horn doesn't work. Just finished a roadtrip with 6 people from Florida to Los Angeles, the van was a dream to drive. Starts pretty much first time every time. Any questions please ask, I'll respond quickly. I have this listed elsewhere so reserve the right to remove the listing if it is sold elsewhere. No reasonable offer not entertained. Obviously it is sold as is, last titled in New Jersey with an inspection sticker good until 2015. |

China-FCA merger could be a win-win for everyone but politicians
Tue, Aug 15 2017NEW YORK — Fiat Chrysler boss Sergio Marchionne has said the car industry needs to come together, cut costs and stop incinerating capital. So far, his words have mostly fallen on deaf ears among competitors in Europe and North America. But it appears Marchionne has finally found a receptive audience — in China. FCA shares soared Monday after trade publication Automotive News reported the $18 billion Italian-American conglomerate controlled by the Agnelli family rebuffed a takeover from an unidentified carmaker from the Chinese mainland. As ugly as the politics of such a combination may appear at first blush, a transaction could stack up industrially, and perhaps even financially. A Sino-U.S.-European merger would create the first truly global auto group. That could push consolidation to the next level elsewhere. Moreover, China is the world's top market for the SUVs that Jeep effectively invented, so it might benefit FCA financially. A combo would certainly help upgrade the domestic manufacturer; Chinese carmakers have gotten better at making cars, but struggle to build global brands, and they need to develop export markets. Though frivolous overseas shopping excursions by Chinese enterprises are being reined in by Beijing, acquisitions that support the modernization and transformation of strategic industries still receive support, and the government considers the automotive industry to be strategic. A purchase of FCA by Guangzhou Automobile, Great Wall or Dongfeng Motors would probably get the same stamp of approval ChemChina was given for its $43 billion takeover of Syngenta. What's standing in the way? Apart from price (Automotive News said FCA's board deemed the offer insufficient) there's the not-insignificant matter of politics. Even as FCA shares soared, President Donald Trump interrupted his vacation to instruct the U.S. Trade Representative to look into whether to investigate China's trade policies on intellectual property. Seeing storied Detroit brands like Jeep, Chrysler, Ram and Dodge handed off to a Chinese company would provoke howls among Trump's economic-nationalist supporters. It might not play well in Italy, either, to see Alfa Romeo and Maserati answering to Wuhan instead of Turin — though Automotive News said they might be spun off separately. Yet, as Morgan Stanley observes, "cars don't ship across oceans easily," and political considerations increasingly demand local manufacture of valuable products.
Chrysler extends fuel tank warranties on LX cars, NHTSA ends probe
Tue, 18 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has ended its investigation of 153,817, 5.7-liter and 6.1-liter Hemi V8-powered 2006 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum models after reports of stalling. Chrysler has responded by granting a lifetime warranty on the fuel tanks for these vehicles.
NHTSA received 299 reports of engines stalling while the models were stopped or driving at low speeds, and began an investigation. The government agency found that the control valve shutoff float in the V8s' 19-gallon fuel tank could malfunction if the fuel had too high of an ethanol content. In many cases, the valve would break in the open position, allowing the tank to be overfilled, which would then cause the cars to stall. However, there were no accidents reported, and the vehicles could be restarted immediately.
There will not be a recall on these vehicles because, "the condition represents a low risk to motor vehicle safety and is adequately addressed by Chrysler's extended warranty," NHTSA said to The Detroit News.
Chrysler investigating complaints of vehicles with faulty power modules
Sun, 24 Aug 2014Chrysler owners are hopping mad after experiencing a series of electrical gremlins in some of the company's vehicles. Issues range from mere annoyances - windows rolling down and radios turning off of their own accord - to serious safety issues, with headlights that randomly shut off at night and cars that stall and refuse to start.
The issues are being blamed on the total integrated power module, which can cost up to $1,000 for customers to replace. This, of course, has led to a hefty batch of complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, with 240 owners expressing their displeasure so far. Another site, CarComplaints.com, has registered over 300 complaints relating to the 2010 to 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango, alone, according to The New York Times.
Chrysler has acknowledged that it's investigating the complaints and is analyzing the faulty TIPMs, but that isn't quite enough for customers of the affected vehicles. The newspaper has snagged a few of the more harrowing tales with the electrically challenged Chrysler products, culled from the NHTSA complaints.
