This is a 1981 Dodge W250, 4WD, long bed pickup. It was purchased new by the Columbus, Georgia Metropolitan Airport in 1981. It was part of their fire rescue dept. until 1999. At that point it only had 8,000 miles on it, and now has only 36,500 miles. It had safety lights, a water tank and hose system mounted in bed while in airport service. It has a few dings to be expected for a 30+ year old truck and the safety yellow paint is faded. The body is rust free except for about an 8"X8" section of drivers side floor. The engine is a 360 4 barrel, and is the original. We just put a new Holley 600 on it, but the original Thermoquad carb is included. The 3 spd auto trans works great, as does the 4 wheel drive. The truck has A/C and it is all there, just doesn't blow cold. It has the big Dana front and rear differentials, and they are geared pretty low, I'm gonna say 4.10-4.30. It really crawls good in 4 low. This truck had NOT been beat on in the woods or dumped off into a lot of mud. You could restore this truck, use it as a good hunting rig, or it is also a killer candidate for a older Cummins diesel swap. This truck has NO title, as it was a Georgia truck and they don't require titles for anything older than 1986. If your state requires a title, that is on YOU. The VIN # is clean. If you are local to this area, you will remember seeing this truck parked near the fence at the airport, or running up and down the runways. $200 non refundable deposit due at auction end, via PayPal. You must come get the truck. We drive it once a week locally, but haven't done any long distance in it. Thanks for looking.

Watch this Dodge Viper get clawed to death

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

There's a scene in the James Bond movie, Casino Royale, where Daniel Craig's Agent 007 is captured by villain Le Chiffre, played by Mads Mikkelsen. Le Chiffre tortures Bond in a scene that is rather difficult to watch (especially for blokes) and impossible to describe on these digital pages (Google at your own risk). This video is the automotive equivalent of the Casino Royale torture scene.
It shows a Dodge Viper - a late, first-generation GTS judging by the center-exit exhausts - getting assaulted by a giant piece of heavy equipment. The large claw shows no mercy on the V10-powered sports car, rending its muscular curves into pieces and then running it over, just for good measure. It's a painful video to watch (and hear!), made worse because we don't know what the Viper did to deserve such a fate. About a third of the way through the video, the cameraman indicates that the man with the claw is a new operator from Chrysler, and it appears there may be some fire damage, but beyond that, we don't have much to go on.
Scroll down for the video but be warned, it isn't for the faint of heart.

Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.

Does the future of Fiat-Chrysler include Dodge?

Thu, 13 Jun 2013

Wards Auto reports the future of Dodge is looking uncertain. Fiat has more or less laid out it's game plan for the next few years, and while the Chrysler, Fiat and Jeep lines are set to receive plenty of love, Dodge isn't so lucky. Fiat has already hobbled Dodge significantly by splitting off the brand's trucks into a separate Ram line.
Wards says that after the Avenger rides off into the sunset early next year, Fiat-Chrysler won't replace the model, leaving a gaping midsize hole in the Dodge lineup. The report also cites unnamed sources as saying that at least two other current Dodge products will move to the Chrysler line.
One of those could very well be the Grand Caravan. Chrysler has already made it clear that it plans to trim redundancy between its minivan offerings, but it has yet to clarify which other vehicle could sail under the Chrysler banner moving forward. Either way, such changes to the product line would theoretically leave Dodge with just four models.
