2000 Dodge Dakota Extended Cab pickup. 101,000 miles

2WD, 3.9L V6, Auto Trans

Equipped with power windows, power door locks, keyless entry, cruise control, limited slip rear axle.

I've owned this truck for 7 years but have only put about 22,000 miles on it. It's not my daily driver, just a spare truck that I use for doing “truck things”.

The truck runs and drives well. Engine starts and runs fine, trans shifts through all the gears, no slip, no strange noises, no check engine light.

The truck looks good, too. It's not beat up at all and the interior is in nice shape.

This is however a 14 year old Dodge truck so it does have some flaws:

The A/C doesn't work. (the evaporator leaks)

The ABS doesn't work and the ABS dash light comes on. (I've been told this won't pass Maryland inspection but I've had no problems in Delaware)

The rear bumper is rusty.

Minor flaws:

Steering is a little loose (probably the intermediate shaft as this is a common Dakota failure)

Driver's side mirror has a crack

Has a small rust spot on the passenger side door. (see picture)

I just put new front brake pads, rotors and calipers on it. I also just changed the oil and replaced the air filter. Within the last year, I put a new exhaust and new battery on it. All of the brake lines have been replaced in the past couple of years.

I put tires on it when I bought it. They are about 50-60% worn (22,000 miles).

The previous owner put a cold air intake on it and I just put a new JVC stereo/CD player in it with aux input.

All of the fluids (oil, trans, differential, brake, steering) are fresh. Plugs, distributor, wires, etc have been replaced during my ownership.

The truck doesn't need anything.

Currently registered in Delaware until October 2014.

I have 100% positive feedback through eBay and have sold several cars and motorcycles through the years with success. Again, this is a 14 year old Dodge truck with over 101,000 miles. If you're expecting perfection, this isn't it. If you're a reasonable person and have reasonable expectations of what an old truck should look like, then please place your bid. Once you place you bid however, you agree to buy it. If you win the auction, I expect you to complete the transaction and any problems that you may encounter after that are your responsibility.

Any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Chrysler recalling 780k minivans over fire risk

Fri, 09 May 2014

Chrysler is recalling 780,000 of its Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2010 to 2014 model years due to the possibility of circuits overheating, which can lead to a fire. Of the 780,000 total vans being recalled, Chrysler estimates that 644,850 are in the US, 106,980 are in Canada, 8,009 are in Mexico, and 20,638 are in other markets. All of the affected vehicles were built between August 25, 2010 and October 31, 2013.
Chrysler's engineers discovered that beverage spills or exposure to moisture (from rain, snow, car washes, and the like) were linked to circuits shorting in the window switch assembly. Short circuits can overheat, and thus, cause a fire.
Chrysler will contact owners and let them know when they may schedule service, at which point, the window switches will be replaced. In the interim, the automaker says that owners may visit their dealers after May 14 to have the switches disconnected.

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:
