2003 Dodge Dakota R/T muscle truck in excellent condition. Considered to be one of the cleanest R/T's in the country! 

 

Full vehicle history provided in a binder with every receipt for both performance parts and maintenance items. Two bins full of extra parts and stock parts are also included.

Odometer currently has less than 19,300 miles and a brand new 6.6 liter 402 cubic inch V-8 rests under the hood with 200 miles on the engine. The engine was machined and short block assembly done by Arrow Racing Engines, Chrysler's Viper engine dyno test and warranty center  http://www.arrowracingengines.com. Truck sounds excellent and pushes you hard into the seat when you put your foot down! This R/T is not for the faint at heart. Gets a lot of attention and even a few surprises when it idles by.

Body and paint are excellent, great shine and deep color. Moore SRT hood is included and has the heat extractor option included. Only real blemish is a small dent above the drivers door handle and the bed has some scratches and scuffs from no bedliner.

Interior is also excellent. Looks brand new, husky floor liners have kept the carpet perfect and are included. Also included is a G-Tech EGS gauge system. The EGS has full OBD-2 monitoring capability and wide band O2 for data logging http://www.gtechpro.com/egs.html

The suspension has been lowered with Western Chassis front A-arms and rear hangers with QA-1 fully adjustable shocks at all four corners. The shocks can let you ride in comfort or firm it up to take corners hard. Tires are factory Goodyear Eagle RSA's, plenty of tread left but have no chance against the new engine.

four-speed automatic Transmission and 3.92 limited slip rear end are factory stock except for a driveshaft loop, high capacity transmission pan, and high strength rear end cover.

2013 Dodge Dart GT

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

My younger brother bought a Dodge Dart earlier this summer. It's a basic SXT, in Maximum Steel Metallic, with the 2.0-liter engine, a six-speed automatic transmission and not a whole lot else. Unfortunately, at the time, the Dart was one of the few cars in the compact class I'd never driven. I didn't know a lot about it, and therefore, didn't have a lot to say when he bought it. I think the words "based on an Alfa," popped out when I first saw it.
As it turns out, he's grown quite fond of the dark gray sedan, so it was with some degree of enthusiasm that I paid him a visit in this bright-orange Dart GT. I was excited to see what it was about the Dart that he enjoyed so much, despite my tester featuring a different engine, transmission and a lot more tech. After a week with the car, though, I must say: I don't quite see what all the fuss is about.

Takata air bag recall list

Tue, Dec 9 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed yesterday that 33.8 million vehicles with Takata airbags are going to be recalled. It's the largest recall in automotive history. The already record-breaking rate of automotive recalls this year shows no signs of slowing down, especially since millions of cars with defective airbags made by global supplier Takata are under ongoing scrutiny. The federal government is warning owners that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The faulty air bags have already been blamed for multiple deaths. How do you know if your vehicle is safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released an updated list of vehicles under recall. Sometimes however, the government's website will crash and the list may not be complete. Check your VIN at the NHTSA website to make sure. The list of cars affected by the recall has not been released, but seem to span multiple models over the years for many of the automakers.

Dodge shows can-do attitude with grand Can'avan sculpture

Fri, 01 Nov 2013

There are lots of ways to celebrate an important birthday, and all of them are well deserved. You can throw a big party, buy yourself something nice, or - if you're the altruistic type - do something for others in need. The latter is how Chrysler has opted to mark the 30th anniversary of its Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country.
Together with hunger-advocacy organization Canstruction, the Chrysler Foundation has built a full-scale replica of the Grand Caravan out of 30,000 food cans in the square at the corner of Yonge and Dundas in Toronto, a ways down the highway from where the real vans are built in Windsor. The sculpture was built over the course of 10 hours by 30 volunteers and was displayed earlier this week.
Now the installation is being taken down, and the cans of food are being donated to the Daily Bread Food Bank, which will assemble them into 2,000 food baskets to be distributed to those in need through its network of 200 food banks across the Canadian metropolis. Check out a neat time-lapse video of the build and the press release below.
