Please Note: The Vehicle Report shows and accident--This truck was never in an accident, Never. I was pulling my boat--got cut off and the trailer clip fender clipped a fire hydrant--No Damage to Truck. Slightly bent trailer fender, that's it. I'm insured with USAA and I'll see if I can get some documentation or get the report straight. First vehicle I've sold on Ebay so I'm not sure if I could have checked that prior to listing or not--just noticed in ad after listing.
This is my personal truck. I bought the truck new in December of 2007. I could have purchased the 6.7L Cummins, but decided that this proven workhorse was the superior truck. The 5.9L doesn't have all the new emission equipment and therefore not all the associated problems and repair costs. I'm a 51 year old male--the trucks never been used for towing with the exception of towing my ski boat to the ramp a mile away several times a year. The truck is far more truck than I need or use, that's why it only has 39,000 miles on it. Actual mileage is under 39,000 by several hundred miles, but I do drive it occasionally. As far as I know there is nothing wrong with the truck--I had a recent Maryland Inspection and it passed without issue. If I keep the truck I'll buy another warranty. I had the 5 year 100,000 mile warranty but that ended last December. I have a friend with the same truck and transmission with almost 500K and he's never replaced the transmission--and he tow's a large camper. The truck is loaded with all options (as far as I know) with the exception of the Navigation and Sunroof. The truck is damn near spotless with the exception of a few nicks on the rockers from rocks--nothing out of the ordinary. I have all the factory parts with the exception of the exhaust--I might have the muffler. The truck has never been chipped or dogged--that said when I put the 35 Toyo's on my mileage dropped 14-19 mpg vs 17-23 mpg so I put on a Mileage Module which is included with the truck (I took it off, didn't do much). My speedometer was fast by about 5mph so I purchased a Smarty Junior so I could change to the correct tire size. I've never needed additional power--the truck will pull stumps--enough said. But if you need to dial up for towing the Smarty Junior is probably the safest and best way to do that. The truck has never had any engine oil other than Synthetic. I recently changed the transmission fluid, and front and rear differential fluid and replaced with Amsoil Synthetic fluid(s). I added an AFE Rear Diff Guard and Mag Tech Trans Pan to make fluid changes simple--not because I'm a hot-dog. If you want to hot-dog and abuse the truck please feel free to buy it. I'm selling the truck because I have too many vehicles and I'm tired of paying insurance on something that sits in the driveway. I have one new Toyo 35 on a spare. The tires might have another 10K in them--I don't know but you only need three (about $900-$1000). The factory Michelin's are in excellent shape with about 15K I think. They look almost new (they're on the Chrome Clad Aluminum Wheels). The only issue with the truck that bothers me is that the leather wrapped steering wheel had a knick from my wedding ring. I put a cover on it and the cover lefts some marks in it. I just put new covers on it.

Chrysler, Nissan minivans earn 'dire' crash test results, says IIHS [w/video]
Fri, Nov 21 2014First introduced in 2012, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's small-overlap frontal crash test has become the bane of many auto engineers' existence. It's a particularly steep design challenge because it forces just 25 percent of a vehicle's front end to take the brunt of a 40-mile-per-hour impact. The newly released results of four family-minded minivans underscore just how difficult the crash test is: only one scored an Acceptable rating, and the other three did very poorly. The 2008-2015 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan, plus the 2011-2015 Nissan Quest, all received Poor ratings in the test, the IIHS' lowest possible score. The three of them showed significant crash intrusion into the driver's area. The dummy in the Nissan actually had to be cut out of the vehicle, with an IIHS spokesperson remarking, "the structure collapsed like a house of cards." In the Fiat Chrysler Automobile vans, the steering wheels moved out of the way, making the airbag less effective and letting the driver's head hit the dashboard. While it was not actually crashed, the agency is also giving the 2009-12 Volkswagen Routan a Poor score because it shares a structure with the FCA models. The newly released results of four minivans underscore just how difficult the small-offset crash test is. The refreshed 2015 Toyota Sienna (shown), conversely, earned an Acceptable rating and is also a Top Safety Pick+ because of its optional forward collision warning and automatic braking system. While the crash test dummy moved around during the impact more than the agency would have liked, sensors showed a low risk of injuries. The IIHS tested the Honda Odyssey last year, and it earned a Good overall score, the agency's best ranking. It's also a Top Safety Pick+ vehicle. The only member of the minivan segment left to test is the latest Kia Sedona, and the Institute is reportedly waiting a little longer for Kia to make changes to improve the model's performance. When reached for comment, Nissan spokesperson Steve Yaeger provided Autoblog with the following statement: "Nissan is committed to vehicle safety and believes that consumers should have information about crash protection so they can make educated buying decisions. Nissan is proud of the 2014 Quest's "good" rating in the IIHS front moderate overlap and side impact tests as well as a "good" head restraint rating.
Dodge offers 100 years of solid advice in new ad
Fri, 18 Apr 2014This 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.

NHTSA investigating Ram 1500 models for rear differential failure
Mon, 30 Jun 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and its Ram brand following a number of reports regarding the 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup. According to 15 consumer complaints, the trucks' rear differential locked up while in other cases, the driveshaft separated at its connection to the diff.
Nearly half of the reports claim the truck was traveling at or above 50 miles per hour, while two consumers reported that the diff lockup/driveshaft separation sent their pickups into a spin. Most troubling, though, is that consumers reported little to no sound indicating there was a problem with their truck.
We reached out to Ram for additional information, such as how many vehicles may be affected or what equipment might be fitted that could cause the issue. Unfortunately, the company wasn't willing to elaborate on specifics.
