 This is an original ex- military 1977 Dodge M880 model power wagon.  Odometer shows 20,371 miles not sure if this is original if it has turned over.  I would go with it having turned over.   Specific military model is a M887 which is part of the overall M880 military model trucks that the military uses from the late 70's to sometime in the 80s/90s. .  Truck is a 4x4 all time drive with a 318 V8 gas engine and automatic trans.  4:10 gears.  Vehicle does start right up and drive however I am primarily selling this as a RESTORATION PROJECT, not any everyday transportation vehicle.  Truck has a lot of rust as you can see in the photos.  Front fenders, doors, bedsides, and floor pans will all need attention.  Other than that if you just want an old Dodge 4x4 Truck for running around on the Farm or off road this truck would be OK for that.  There is no power steering and any other creature comforts other than power brakes so it is a bit of a beast to drive, brakes do work but are weak and will need some attention. These trucks were geared pretty low for military use so I would not count on it as an everyday transportation truck to run 60 plus MPH out on the highways.  If you are looking for a Military Vehicle to restore the Dodge M880 as a good cheap alternative to other Military Vehicles.  Easy to work on and get parts for.  I do have a clear title.  Selling this truck in as is were is condition with no warranties what so ever.  I have not driven this truck on the road since 2010 and had originally bought it for a parts truck for another Dodge M880 that I am working on but decided to not part it out.  Only thing I noticed is that when you shift into gear something in the drive train slams into gear rather harshly.  So not sure if it is U-joints or what.  However I do not notice any other noise once in gear and the truck is moving.  Missing the tailgate, front bumper is in the bed of the truck.  No other parts come with the truck.  Tires are bald.  Heavy duty reese hitch on the back.  Ask questions before bidding. Vehicle can sit for up to 30 days however payment in full needs to be made within 7 days.  Also need for the buyer to make contact within 3 days to confirm pickup plans and payment.   I work out of state during the week so prefer weekend pickup if you want to meet me in person.  Weekday pickup can be arranged but as noted I  would not be there.  Usually have my Dad to assist if during the week.   Thanks  for looking.

Dodge offers 100 years of solid advice in new ad

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

This is a cool ad. Dodge, which is celebrating its centennial this year, recruited some of its peers to see what you should and shouldn't do in life. Of course, some are obvious - don't complain, learn from your mistakes and live for now.
Then again, some are less obvious. Some, actually, are downright awesome. Towards the end, each piece of advice is interspersed with clips of Dodge's redesigned Challenger smoking its tires. Really, this ad feels like it'd be worthy of a Super Bowl spot. This commercial's personal nature is really in keeping with some of the big game's most interesting ads, like the Imported From Detroit commercial, the Farmer ad and Maserati's surprise clip from this year's game.
Take a look below and let us know what you think.

FCA updates 700k-vehicle recall to replace ignition switches

Mon, Mar 9 2015

FCA US is revising a previously announced recall of 702,578 minivans and SUVs; now specifying that owners replace their ignition switches, rather than just a component. The campaign affects the 2008-2010 Chrysler Town & Country, 2008-2010 Dodge Grand Caravan and 2009-2010 Dodge Journey. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration initially opened an investigation last summer following complaints about the ignition switches in these models. FCA US (then Chrysler Group) responded with a recall of 695,957 examples of these vehicles because the key could appear to be in the "Run" position but not be fully engaged. If it slipped out, and there was an accident, then the airbags might not deploy. The company had initially planned to install a new detent ring to fix the problem. According to the timeline in a NHTSA document (available here as a PDF), the government agency and FCA US continued their research into the problem. The automaker found that the time needed to create a new ring design and updated software would be longer than replacing the whole ignition switch. The company worked with the supplier Marquardt to negotiate an accelerated schedule to manufacture the extra replacement parts. According to NHTSA, the investigation has now been closed because of FCA's recall. Company spokesperson Eric Mayne confirms to Autoblog via email, "No additional vehicles are affected and all affected customers have already been made aware their vehicles are subject to recall." FCA US sent out an initial notification advising owners of the problem in September 2014. The company will now send out a second letter in April and will replace the parts in two phases. Repairs for affected models from the 2008 and 2009 model years will begin in April, and 2010 examples will start being fixed in August. RECALL Subject : Ignition Switch may Turn Off , 1 INVESTIGATION(S) Report Receipt Date: JUN 26, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V373000 Component(s): AIR BAGS , ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Potential Number of Units Affected: 702,578 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY 2008-2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN 2008-2010 DODGE JOURNEY 2009-2010 Details Manufacturer: Chrysler Group LLC SUMMARY: This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, customers should remove all items from their key rings, leaving only the ignition key.

7 major automakers to build open EV charging network

Wed, Jul 26 2023

A new joint venture established by BMW, GM, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz and Stellantis will build a new North American electric vehicle charging network on a scale designed to compete with Tesla's industry-benchmark Supercharger network. The 30,000-plus planned new chargers will accommodate both Tesla's almost-standard North American Charging System (NACS) and existing automakers' Combined Charging System (CCS) options, effectively guaranteeing compatibility with the vast majority of current and upcoming electric models — whether they're from one of the involved automakers or not.  "With the generational investments in public charging being implemented on the Federal and State level, the joint venture will leverage public and private funds to accelerate the installation of high-powered charging for customers. The new charging stations will be accessible to all battery-powered electric vehicles from any automaker using Combined Charging System (CCS) or North American Charging Standard (NACS) and are expected to meet or exceed the spirit and requirements of the U.S. National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program." Critically, the automakers involved will have a say in how the charging tech is implemented, guaranteeing that the hardware will play nicely with each automaker's in-house charging systems. Hyundai and Kia, for example, were hesitant to jump on board the Tesla NACS bandwagon earlier this year over concerns that the Supercharger network is insufficient for powering the two automakers' 800-volt charging systems; similar tech is used by Volkswagen and Porsche.  In addition to providing much-needed capacity and high-output charging for America's growing fleet of electric cars and trucks, the new network will integrate seamlessly with each automaker's in-app and in-vehicle features, rather than forcing customers to use third-party tools and payment systems, as is the case with some existing public charging infrastructure.  "The functions and services of the network will allow for seamless integration with participating automakersÂ’ in-vehicle and in-app experiences, including reservations, intelligent route planning and navigation, payment applications, transparent energy management and more. In addition, the network will leverage Plug & Charge technology to further enhance the customer experience," the announcement said.
