Up for sale is a 1997 Dodge Dakota with 105,XXX miles. This truck is a 4x4 pickup with a V6 3.9 liter engine and 5 speed manual transmission - sport edition. Cloth interior that is in fair shape for its age. Truck comes with an aftermarket CD player. Starts up every morning without issue and has cold A/C for these hot muggy days. It has a 3" body lift with 31 X 10.50 R15 BFG All Terrains. The body has dings all over it - no large dents that keep you from operating the truck though. The paint is very faded and there is a significant amount of surface rust on the roof. There are also spots of surface rust scattered in different spots on the body. No part of the outer body is rusting out - just surface rust. There is a spot inside the bottom of the bed that is rusting through - it doesn't weaken the bed though. Manual windows, manual locks, rear window has a sliding back glass.

This is a great truck for work or play - would be a great hunting truck!

The good:

COLD A/C
Starts up every time - runs smooth.
Comes with Diamond Plate tool box.
Aftermarket CD Player
VA State Inspection valid thru 10/13.

The following has just been replaced:

Front brakes
Front rotors
Front brake hoses
Battery
Fresh Oil Change

The following has been replaced in the last 5,000 miles:

Exhaust - new muffler and tailpipe from muffler back.
2 inner tie rod ends
Front End Alignment
Rear U-Joint
Serpentine Belt
Spark Plugs
Spark Plug wires
Cap & Rotor
PCV Valve
Serpentine belt tensioner

The bad:

Headliner sagging - as shown in pic.
Manifold leak - sounds like it's on the right side.
Small rattle towards front of motor - no idea what this is, it doesn't sound like its in the block and doesn't really increase when you rev it up. The best way to describe this sound is rattle instead of a tap - water pump is not leaking. It has actually done this for years and hasn't created any issues - sometimes it doesn't make a noise. Just wanted to note it. I've recorded a video that seems to exacerbate the sound but gives and idea of the pitch - http://youtu.be/F_AZZ5T9J-4
Does not go into 4X4 low. If you disconnect the linkage it will go into 4X4 low. Whoever put the body lift on before I received the truck didn't properly extend the 4X4 shifter so it hits the body before it gets into low range. It's not that the low range doesn't work - the throw is just off on the shifter. It needs to be taken off cut and re-welded to modify the throw in order to clear the body.
Condition of paint.
Crack in windshield - as shown in pic.
Spare tire carrier under bed is broken. Spare tire will still come with truck in back of bed.

I've made every attempt to describe this vehicle to the best of my ability. Please let me know if you have any additional questions before bidding and I'll be happy to answer to the best of my ability. Thanks for looking.

Dukes of Hazzard reruns dropped amid Confederate flag controversy

Thu, Jul 2 2015

Those Duke boys are in a mess of trouble again, as TV Land announced Wednesday that it will be dropping the classic 1980s action-comedy the Dukes of Hazzard from its roster. But it may not be Bo and Luke's fault this time. Rather, it appears to be the changing political landscape. Entertainment Weekly reached out to TV Land, which is devoted to airing episodes of classic TV series, but it had no further comment. While the network didn't say why the episodes were removed, EW speculates that the cancellation is part of the reaction to the racially motivated murder of nine people in a historic black church in Charleston, SC, last month. The shooter was often photographed carrying a Confederate flag and other trappings of white supremacy. Since the tragedy, Confederate flags are being dropped from state houses, license plates, and toys. Last month, Warner Bros. said it would stop producing toys featuring the rebel flag, including a die cast miniature version of the Dukes of Hazzard's trademark ride, The General Lee, which was a bright orange 1969 Dodge Charger with a Confederate flag plastered to the roof. The same week as the shooting, the Supreme Court decided that states can reject license plates featuring the stars and bars as part of the states' right to free speech. Nine states currently use the flag in license plates, and the ruling will allow Texas, North Carolina, and Tennessee to remove the motif from their state's plates. Georgia is also considering redesigning its plates in the wake of the shooting. For our younger readers, the Dukes Of Hazzard was a television show that aired from 1979 to 1985 on CBS. It feature the antics of the Duke boys in a fictional place called Hazzard County, GA. Related Video:

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year

Mon, Nov 9 2015

With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

The article appears in the December/January issue, on newsstands November 17, and on RoadandTrack.com. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," said Larry Webster, editor-in-chief of Road & Track. "Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love." The Mustang Shelby GT350R was the winner by a runaway vote.
