44,874 miles?  Find a 4x4 pickup with those miles for under $5500. 

I am the second owner of this beautiful truck.  What makes her beautiful you ask? Certainly not its paint as that is peeling. Not the inside of the cab either because though it is clean it is about as plain jane as it gets.  And she is missing trim rings around door handles.  But, "so what I said when I bought her." She has really low miles, runs like a friggin' tank, is slightly lifted, bounces like a truck should and gives you power and 4 wheel drive to get you out (or into) the right kind of trouble.  Mom and Dad?  this is the vehicle you want your kid in- not too cool but cool enough for the right guy or gal and it can only fit what  all of 3 teenage kids? (and that would be pretty cramped).  Gets them where they need to go and home safe no matter the weather.  

Working man or lady?maybe you are someone that needs to just get where you are going, throw some crap in the bed and be done with it.  This truck will do it.  

Broke college kid that needs reliable transportation. Yup, fits the bill with room in the back to switch dorm rooms and get you and your stuff to your first job miles away from home.

Me? I am a firefighter who needed something cheap with 4x4 because I can't be late and I certainly can't not show up for work.  I have since moved to an area where I can't afford to park an extra vehicle and I have inherited an SUV that can fit a few more people in it comfortably, but to be honest? I am going to miss this truck.

Newer tires, shocks, brakes, exhaust and muffler. (approx. 10,000 miles on it all).  I added the Yakima rack for canoes. I purchased the truck with the bed liner and it seems in good shape. The original radio- that was just a radio so I did end up a couple of years ago putting in a Sony stereo with IPOD dock and Aux and upgraded to Sony front speakers (wired for rear speakers but I didn't need them so I didn't bother adding.

The pics should show both the good and the bad.  One shows the peeling paint on the hood- this is also occurring on top of cab and just below windows and on wheel wells.  There is some rusting of the undercarriage.  

I am the second owner, purchased the vehicle from an auction.  No accidents, mileage is accurate and I purchased the AutoCheck Vehicle History report which I am willing to provide to interested buyers. The overall score is a 53. Similar vehicles score 23-46. It recently passed VA emissions and safety inspections.

Chrysler killing off the 200 Convertible, Dodge Avenger

Sun, 23 Feb 2014

When Chrysler rolled out the first-generation 200 to replace the Sebring range in 2010, it included replacements for both the sedan and the convertible. The Sebring Coupe, however, was left out of the mix. And now that the second-generation Chrysler 200 is descending upon us, Auburn Hills is paring things down even further. But this time, it's the convertible that reportedly isn't making the cut. Shame, too, since the rendering above shows what could have been quite an attractive droptop.
As our compatriots at Edmunds point out, sales of the convertible model accounted for less than five percent of overall Chrysler 200 sales, and at those numbers, the considerable cost of engineering a new drop-top couldn't be justified. With the Toyota Camry Solara and Volkswagen Eos also gone from the market (well, the VW isn't gone quite yet), the discontinuation of the Chrysler 200 Convertible leaves the affordable convertible segment largely to the sportier likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro and smaller European offerings like the Mini Cooper and VW Beetle.
The Chrysler 200 Convertible isn't the only derivative being left behind with the new model: so too is the Dodge Avenger. That will leave a glaring hole in the Dodge lineup, with nothing to bridge the gap between the compact Dart and the larger Charger. Whether the Dodge brand has any plans to replace the Avenger with another model, not to be based on the 200, remains to be seen.

Recharge Wrap-up: LA Auto Show may feature updated Cadillac ELR, Uber expands Chicago HQ

Tue, Sep 30 2014

A Kentucky man has converted his 1939 Dodge pickup to an electric vehicle. Al Gajda of Lexington built the electric truck, which he now uses as his daily driver. "I take advantage of any excuse to drive it; just banging around town, errands, short runs on the interstate, delivering my granddaughter to school in the morning," he says. It is powered by a lithium-ion phosphate battery, which is mounted in a wooden box on the truck bed, and gets about 100 miles per charge. Read more at the Lexington Herald-Leader. Elon Musk will speak at the Automotive News World Congress in January. The Tesla CEO is a featured speaker for the program, "Setting the Pace in a Thriving Market."

Production of the Toyota Rav4 EV has ended. The shipment of the final Toyota EVs concludes Toyota's deal to source batteries from Tesla. Of the 2,600 Rav4 EVs to be produced, there are probably just a few hundred left to be sold, most of which are likely to be gone by the end of October. Read more at Inside EVs. Cadillac will likely show an improved version of the ELR at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November. The 2016 ELR will include unspecified "engineering enhancements," according to Cadillac spokesman David Caldwell. There will be no 2015 model, as the 2014 model will be sold until the 2016 ELR goes on sale in the first half 2015. Read more at Edmunds. Uber executives, along with Illinois Governor Pat Quinn, have announced a major expansion of the ride-hailing company's Chicago headquarters. Uber also plans to add 420 jobs by the end of 2016.

Chrysler teases upcoming outlay of SEMA cars

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is hauling a multitude of modified models to the annual SEMA show in Las Vegas this November, and the company is releasing the first teasing sketches of many of them.
Unfortunately, FCA isn't giving many solid details on any of the concepts other than saying the vehicles from Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram and Fiat all benefit from tuning from its Mopar performance brand. The teaser photos include a sinister-looking Chrysler 200S, Fiat 500 Abarth with two-tone paint and a scorpion on the hood, a red and black 500L, seemingly two different takes on the Jeep Renegade, a green Dodge Challenger wearing the T/A badge, an orange and black Dart, a very neon Charger, just the outline of a red and black Viper, a Ram ProMaster in Mopar livery and a Ram pickup called the Outdoorsman.
Take a look through the gallery to see what you think of the sketches for these concepts, and scroll down for the full announcement from FCA.
