2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Quad Cab Long Bed W/ 5.9 Cummins on 2040-cars
Peoria, Illinois, United States
Up for sale again due to an non paying buyer is my 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Quad Cab Long Bed 4x4 with ST trim package. Has the 5.9 Cummins. Currently has 225,089 miles, but will go up. Manual locks and windows and vinyl floor. Truck is bone stock except for an aftermarket air filter and 5" stack. To my knowledge truck has never been chipped or had a programmer. Has heavy duty bumpers on front and rear. has cab lights, just need wired in. Trailer brake controller, gooseneck hitch,spray in bed liner and drop in bed liner. all door windows and back window are all tinted. New Pioneer head unit in January with iPod/aux input. If you are looking for a show truck keep looking, this is a truck and has been used as such. The interior is in good shape, with usual wear and tear, drivers seat has small tear, center console/armrest vinyl has some cracks in it, and a few small light stains here and there. I have had seat covers on all seats since i bought it. Heat works great, and A/C works as well but will need charged. The exterior is in pretty good shape as well, but there are a few small dents on the roof that were there when i bought it that i didn't realize were there until i went to install the cab lights a few months after purchasing the truck, almost looks like a chain of some sort hit it, did not break through the paint though. A trailer clipped the front passenger door near the bottom and dented it and scaled it down to the metal and has some surface rust starting. I installed a new water pump last fall, and it also had a bad rear ABS speed sensor that has been fixed but the dummy lights are still on and I don't have a code reader to clear them. Overall the truck runs out good, but will need some work. The truck seemed to have the symptoms of the "shuttle shift" problem common with the 48RE trans, so I replaced the governor pressure solenoid and transducer, along with the trans filter and it helped the issue some but it still wasnt fixed completely. However in reading up on what can cause the issues the truck is having I came across an article on failing torque converters and how they are often times overlooked because the symptoms seem like a transmission problem. After reading up on torque converter failure symptoms, what the truck does is spot on with torque converter failure symptoms. So with that said It looks like the truck will need a new torque converter. It also has a slow fluid leak around the area the torque converter is located, yet another symptom of a failing TC. Could use shocks in the near future as well. The truck has 295/70/R17 nitto terra grapplers on it that are about 30-40% tread. I also have the stock radio, exhaust, and air filter box that will go with the truck.
My wife did hydroplane into a ditch last fall and did cosmetic damage to the passenger side.no structural damage was done. All damage from the incident has been fixed and you can't tell there ever was any damage, but i wanted to be honest and upfront about it. As stated earlier this is a truck and was used as such, so if your looking for a show truck keep looking. But with a little TLC and some work you can have it in tip top shape and have a great truck for years to come. Only reason I'm selling is my wife just had twins and I don't have the time or extra money to put into the truck right now. KBB on this truck in fair condition is $16k, I have it priced well below that, only asking what I still owe on it. IF YOU HAVE LESS THEN 10 FEEDBACK PLEASE CONTACT ME BEOFRE BIDDING TRUCK IS BEING SOLD AS IS, THERE IS NO WARRANTY, NOR DO I GAURENTEE ANYTHING. I HAVE TRIED TO DESCRIBE EVERYTHING TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE . IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME, YOU CAN CALL OR TEXT ME AT 3093394341. DO NOT BID IF YOU ARE UNSURE ABOUT SOMETHING, ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING!!!! the truck is for sale locally so it may end at anytime. Local pickup. $500.00 deposit due at the end of the auction. |

How fracking is causing Chrysler minivans to sit on Detroit's riverfront
Fri, 25 Apr 2014It's fascinating the way that one change to a complex system can have all sorts of unintended consequences. For instance, there are hundreds of new Chrysler Town and County and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans built in Windsor, Ontario, sitting in lots on the Detroit waterfront because of the energy boom in the Bakken oil field in the northern US and parts of Canada.
The huge amount of crude oil coming from these sites mostly use freight trains for transport, and that supply boom has resulted in a shortage of railcars to carry other goods. According to The Windsor Star, North American crude oil transport by train has gone from 9,500 carloads in 2008 to 434,032 carloads in 2013. Making matters worse, some North American rail infrastructure is still damaged because of this year's harsh winter, and that's slowing things down even further.
Chrysler admits to The Star that it has had some delivery delays due to the freight train shortage. In the meantime, it's using more trucks to deliver its vehicles. Trucking is a far less economical solution, partially because a train can carry so many more units at one time, but alternatives are slim. The Windsor plant alone has a deal for 33 trucks to distribute the minivans around Canada and the Midwestern US.
Detroit Auto Show prankster 'damages' hundreds of thousands of dollars of cars
Thu, Jan 29 2015Obtaining credentials for an auto show is generally a pretty selective process, especially at one of the world's premier shows, like Geneva, Los Angeles or Detroit. That didn't stop online prankster Dennis Roady from getting credentialed for the 2015 North American International Auto Show on behalf of a Russian YouTube channel to cover the show. While he wasn't brought on strictly to cause mischief, Roady couldn't help but have some fun at the expense of the product specialists during the serious business of covering the show. He took to an app called "Dude, Your Car," which allows Apple iPhone users to take snaps of vehicles and then edit them to add some serious, but fake, dents and scratches. Naturally, the pranking session was caught on video, where you can enjoy the sight of poor product specialists freaking out over damage to vehicles ranging from the Mercedes-Maybach S600 to the Audi R8 and a lovely Dodge Challenger.

Top horsepower-per-dollar cars in 2017
Tue, Feb 17 2015Bang for the buck. That quasi-scientific statistic is bandied about by motor heads everywhere from classrooms to barrooms, though the truth of the matter is that it's exceedingly complex to measure. A fair performance-per-dollar index would include something like cross-referencing MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price) with point-to-point times on a track or driving route, which is obviously hard to do comprehensively. But, for the sheer joy of talking about cars and playing with a big spreadsheet, there's always the horsepower-per-dollar index, which is more straightforward, albeit hilariously flawed. There are vagaries even with this simple formula, of course: MSRP for vehicles can change at a moment's notice, to say nothing of the bottom-line shifting that happens with local deals or showroom negotiation. For this list we're running with the straight MSRP wherever possible, and as recently reported as we can get it. All the vehicles on this list are 2017 models, and all trims are reported where the lowest price and differing power levels intersect. Some choices were made for personal preference and some for sanity, avoiding things like all 48 trim levels of the Ford Transit, all with the same horsepower). If this list were a simple top ten, or even a top fifty, you'd be bored to tears with all the red, white and blue that is represented. Following perfectly with conventional wisdom, American cars really do lead the world where hp/$ is concerned. So, for the sake of variety (and the sheer joy of seeing a minivan 'win' one round of this thing) I've sorted out some top five and bottom five lists for broad power categories. Let's dive in. Less Than 100 Horsepower Okay, okay, this is hardly a category we'll grant you. But we've often tried to click off all the sub-100-hp cars on sale in the US, and making this list gave us an excuse. It also illustrates that none of these smallish vehicles bring cheap horsepower to the table - for that you'll need a motorcycle. The segment-leading Chevy Spark (above) asks just over $139 for each hp, and that Smart Fortwo Electric Drive has hp on sale for about the same price as its very distant family cousin, the Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG (insert your favorite Smart joke here... we know you want to).
