2002 4x4 Extended Cab Pickup 2-door 3.9l on 2040-cars
Newton, New Jersey, United States
This is a 2002 Dodge Dakota 4 wheel drive in great shape. Carfax shows this truck as being dealer serviced religiously every 3000 miles at Franklin Sussex Automall in Sussex, NJ all its life almost until 105,000 miles, including oil changes and transfer case flushes as per factory recommendations! As we all know, this is almost unheard of these days. I recently had a full service oil change and they said all fluids are the right color and appear to not be leaking. It has very minor surface rust in a few typical areas. It has about 109,800 miles thereabouts( I still drive it about 3 miles to work every day). I just got a NJ inspection sticker good until August 2016. I just had all the bearings done (front wheels, and entire rebuild on differential. pinion gear, carrier bearings, seals, etc. inside and outside)... The tires still have a lot of life left in them, as shown in pictures. There's a small surface chip in windshield on passenger side but not in drivers line of sight so it's hardly noticeable. There is some surface rust under drivers side rear turn signal, and the fenders and rockers are in great shape. see picture of bedrail on drivers side and you will see a few dents, but that's about it. Truck runs great overall, come and take a test drive if you like. This truck has a 3.9 V6 which is a strong running engine and it kicks over instantly and idles evenly right where it should. Most Dodge mechanics will agree that the 3.9 V6 is much more desirable than the 3.7 which seems to be prone to mechanical issues. The CD player works great, truck runs and drives excellent. Steering box is tight and truck does not drift, tires are in good condition (Also see pictures!) Front brake pads are new and when I had the rear rebuilt, I had the mechanic put a new drum brake spring and tensioner kit in both sides... The rear shoes looked like they have tons of miles left on them. Windows are factory tinted, and it has a center rear slide window. Truck also has a bedliner, cruise control, AC (blows cold, recently recharged). The interior is in great shape- Windows, power mirrors, door latches and power locks all work as they should, with no wear spots or rips in upholstery. Carpet is in great shape, not much wear on floor under mats on either side or no stains or tears. Please feel free to contact me for any additional information regarding this truck, or to arrange a time to come see it or have a mechanic check it out. This truck is being sold as is, with no warranties either expressed or implied by the seller. It is the responsibility of the buyer to view the truck or have it checked out by a representative agent of the buyer at the buyer's cost. Vehicle delivery and all sales taxes are the sole responsibility of the buyer, The Newton, N.J. DMV is 5 miles from my house and you can get t-tags or register it there. E-Bay has vehicle shipping options. Payment of 250.00 into Paypal is required within 48 hours of auction end. At this time we can arrange for pick up or delivery. The remaining balance to be paid in cash or bank check within 7 days of auction end. I will work with you on this last part if you need extra time for special circumstances, within reason of course. I will not release title until payment (final payment) clears my account. This truck runs great and has very few issues, I know anyone who sees it and drives it will absolutely love it. THANK YOU, and good luck bidding! RAY |

Man hits 153 mph on I-75 in Dodge Magnum
Tue, May 19 2015A man driving in Michigan took his 2005 Dodge Magnum practically to the limit in the wee hours of the morning on May 19 when the Michigan State Police caught him on radar going 153 miles per hour on Interstate 75 near Detroit. The 21-year-old driver was spotted around 3:00 AM, according to The Detroit News. Michigan State Police First Lieutenant Michael Shaw told Autoblog that officers initially saw the man on radar doing 79 mph in a 70-mph-zone, and they started following him. He eventually clocked 153 mph. However, First Lt. Shaw was clear that there was never a pursuit. "Speeding isn't necessarily a reason to put the public at risk," he said. The situation ended rather abruptly, though. The driver pulled off the interstate and behind a building. He remained in the vehicle, and police arrived and arrested him. According to First Lt. Shaw, the man was driving home from work and alcohol wasn't a factor. The Magnum has been impounded, and the driver was charged with reckless driving. Unfortunately, First Lt. Shaw said that he didn't know what engine was in the wagon, but as enthusiasts, we're curious. After all, the 2005 Magnum RT was governed to 130 mph and the SRT8 wasn't unleashed until 2006, which means either the wagon must've been derestricted to hit such high speeds or that police have the year wrong. We'll let you know if we figure that one out...
Auto sales in March and first quarter down nearly across the board
Wed, Apr 3 2019Nearly every major automaker reported weak U.S. sales for March and the first quarter of 2019, citing a rough start to the year, but said a robust economy and strong labor market should encourage consumers to buy more vehicles as 2019 rolls on. GM, which no longer releases monthly sales figures, saw first-quarter sales fall 7 percent, with declines across all brands. Sales of Silverado pickup trucks fell nearly 16 percent and the high-margin Chevy Suburban large SUV dropped 25 percent. Ford also no longer releases monthly sales numbers, but is due to release its first-quarter sales figures on Thursday. According to industry data, Ford's sales fell 2 percent in the quarter and 5 percent in March. Ford representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. FCA reported a 7 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and a 3 percent drop for the first quarter. All of FCA's brands dropped in March, except for Ram, which saw a 15 percent increase in pickup truck sales. "The industry had a tough first quarter, but with spring finally starting to show its face and continued strong economic indicators ... we are confident that new vehicle sales demand will strengthen going forward," FCA's U.S. head of sales, Reid Bigland, said in a statement. Toyota reported a 3.5 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and 5 percent for the first quarter, hurt by declining demand for its Corolla sedans and Camry vehicles. "While some of our competitors are abandoning sedans, we remain optimistic about the future of the segment," Toyota said in a statement. Nissan posted a 5.3 percent drop in sales in March, and its first-quarter sales were down 11.6 percent. Honda and Hyundai bucked the trend. Honda's U.S. sales rose 4.3 percent in March and 2 percent in the quarter, while Hyundai's were up 1.7 percent and 2.1 percent, respectively. Passenger-car sales suffered throughout the January-March quarter compared with the same period in 2018 as Americans continued to abandon them in favor of larger, more comfortable pickup trucks and SUVs, which are far more profitable for automakers. The battle for market share in the particularly lucrative large-pickup truck market intensified in the quarter, as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram brand outsold the U.S.' No. 1 automaker General Motors' Chevrolet-brand trucks. The two automakers have both launched redesigned pickup trucks.
Fiat Chrysler's next-generation Uconnect is faster, built on Android
Mon, Jan 27 2020If you're a regular reader of Autoblog, you know that for a long time we've liked Fiat Chrysler's Uconnect infotainment system for its bright, clear, responsive touchscreen interface. Now, according to the company, it will be better than ever with Uconnect 5, the latest iteration of the system. It has upgraded hardware and a revamped graphic user interface (the stuff on the screen). Looking at sample screens shown above, there are characteristics shared with the old system, such as the time, status and shortcuts at the top and the menu icons at the bottom. In the middle, the major change is the addition of home screens that can be customized with favorite menus and readouts that are always available. Each of these home screens can have up to four functions and you can have five pages to flip through. The graphics themselves feature more legible fonts and updated icons. Each car brand will get its own set of icons, colors and textures to help create unique experiences. And while each Fiat Chrysler product will be able to have Uconnect, including Alfa Romeo that has until now lacked Uconnect, each brand has the ability to make small tweaks including the screen orientation. The system will support displays in landscape, portrait or square, so different brands may choose different shapes. Powering Uconnect 5 is a processor Fiat Chrysler says is six times more powerful than what's in current systems. It features 6 gigabytes of RAM and 64 gigabytes of internal storage. The processor also supports screens as large as 12.3 inches with as many as 15 million pixels, or nearly twice that of a 4K resolution TV. The system can display information on up to four screens, too. Uconnect 5's firmware is built on Google's Android operating system, joining a few other automakers in using Android as a base for their infotainment systems. Uconnect 5 brings with it a number of new features. It brings full Alexa integration, so you can use it just like you do at home, provided you have a data plan for the car. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto continue to be standard, but now they can be used wirelessly. You can also now connect two phones via Bluetooth wirelessly so you can access content from both. Navigation gets real time information and updates from TomTom. Users can create five profiles with unique climate, radio and instrument settings, plus one for a valet.
