1978 Dodge Power Wagon Truck W150 4x4 440 Auto on 2040-cars
Grapevine, Texas, United States
I'm selling my 1978 W-150 Power Wagon. It's a full time four wheel drive, auto, long bed, 440ci. It has Power Steering, Power Brakes, and A/C (not working). This is an extremely nice power wagon for its age. The paint is an 8 out of 10, interior is in decent shape and the undercarriage is very nice with no rust. The engine is very strong and sounds good with a mild cam. It has a fifth wheel ball hitch in the bed and is rhino lined. I've been driving this truck on the weekends and it runs great. Thanks and good luck bidding. On May-05-14 at 05:44:15 PDT, seller added the following information: Due to the number of questions on my truck, I have decided to post more information on the condition. Approx. 120k miles on the truck. The truck was painted and the engine was rebuilt approx. 10 years ago. It has about 10K miles on it since it was painted. The engine was built by the previous owner and he spent quite a bit on it. He said they put a mild cam, forged pistons, headers, etc. Steering is loose like an old truck and the windshield wipers don't work. (motor stopped working) As you can see in the picture, the truck is set up for dual tanks. The rear tank was removed when I got the truck, so there is only one tank in it now. Are you willing to work with one of the e-bay shippers ? Yes, I'll meet a shipper if needed. Title is clear, Paypal, Cashier check, or wire transfer preferred. More pics will be posted. Thanks On May-06-14 at 11:05:57 PDT, seller added the following information: I apologize for any confusion, but this truck is a W-200, 3/4 Ton. NOT a W-150 as stated previously. The truck has the original axles, trans, etc.. as far as I know. I have included pictures of the undercarriage and rear axle for reference. Thanks, |

Stellantis lays off salaried workers, cites uncertainty in EV transition
Sat, Mar 23 2024DETROIT — Jeep maker Stellantis is laying off about 400 white-collar workers in the U.S. as it deals with the transition from combustion engines to electric vehicles. The company formed in the 2021 merger between PSA Peugeot and Fiat Chrysler said the workers are mainly in engineering, technology and software at the headquarters and technical center in Auburn Hills, Michigan, north of Detroit. Affected workers were notified starting Friday morning. “As the auto industry continues to face unprecedented uncertainties and heightened competitive pressures around the world, Stellantis continues to make the appropriate structural decisions across the enterprise to improve efficiency and optimize our cost structure,” the company said in a prepared statement Friday. The cuts, effective March 31, amount to about 2% of Stellantis' U.S. workforce in engineering, technology and software, the statement said. Workers will get a separation package and transition help, the company said. “While we understand this is difficult news, these actions will better align resources while preserving the critical skills needed to protect our competitive advantage as we remain laser focused on implementing our EV product offensive,” the statement said. CEO Carlos Tavares repeatedly has said that electric vehicles cost 40% more to make than those that run on gasoline, and that the company will have to cut costs to make EVs affordable for the middle class. He has said the company is continually looking for ways to be more efficient. U.S. electric vehicle sales grew 47% last year to a record 1.19 million as EV market share rose from 5.8% in 2022 to 7.6%. But sales growth slowed toward the end of the year. In December, they rose 34%. Stellantis plans to launch 18 new electric vehicles this year, eight of those in North America, increasing its global EV offerings by 60%. But Tavares told reporters during earnings calls last month that “the job is not done” until prices on electric vehicles come down to the level of combustion engines — something that Chinese manufacturers are already able to achieve through lower labor costs. “The Chinese offensive is possibly the biggest risk that companies like Tesla and ourselves are facing right now,Â’Â’ Tavares told reporters. “We have to work very, very hard to make sure that we bring out consumers better offerings than the Chinese.
Watch a Dodge Viper driver show off his V10 all the way into a wall
Mon, Apr 11 2016Has there ever been a show-off video that doesn't end terribly? This video clip captured with a cellphone shows the driver of a neon green Viper GTS giving a fellow motorist a couple throttle blips to signify his intent – which seems to be to crash the Viper into a concrete wall as quickly as possible. It's not pretty. The mean machine seems to be a second-generation Viper GTS in Stryker Green. To our knowledge, no photos have surfaced of the aftermath, so we wish both the driver and their most-likely bruised ego a speedy recovery. Who knows, maybe the Viper is also salvageable.
eGarage interviews a couple with 65 Vipers
Thu, 12 Sep 2013Owning multiple vehicles can be a hassle worth enjoying if you're willing to spend the time and the money required to acquire and maintain them. But when it's hard to make ends meet while underused valuable hunks of metal, plastic and rubber sit happily taking up garage space, journeys into the depths of other people's well-developed automotive obsessions will either bring you and your cars closer together, or compel you to sell them off before you become one of those fanatics. A recent video by eGarage is one of those journeys, and it's not for the faint of heart: D'Ann and Wayne Rauh own 65 Dodge and SRT Vipers in a collection of automobiles that exceeds 100.
We're not sure if the couple has developed heat-resistant calves from stepping over Viper door sills made burning-hot by side-exhaust pipes, but we wouldn't be surprised if they did. We did learn that their obsession with the no-holds-barred sports car started in 2006 with a trip to a dealership to buy just one Viper, which goes to show how innocently car obsessions can start. But the Rauhs seem to be doing just fine - perhaps better - 64 more Vipers later.
Watch the video below for the full story and to see what eGarage claims is the world's largest Viper collection.
