I have a 1998 Dodge Ram 3500 Regular cab 2wd 3500. The truck is in excellent shape for the year. The interior is in good shape with no rip in the seat and only a small crack in the dash. THe carpet has a few stains but it is in good shape with a set of weather tech floor mats to protect the floor. Everything works, cruise control, vents change position, heat works great, but the A/C is so/so it does work but doesnt blow really cold probably just needs a recharge, it does have power windows and locks that both work great. It does not have the typical dodge ram rust the truck is solid. It did have at one point a set of nerf bars on it and where they were attached to the truck there is rust but only on the front passenger fender. the cab corners, rockers and everything else is solid. The fenders are not cracked or damaged at all, the truck has minor scratches and a few small dents but nothing you notice. It is the 98 with the 12v cummins in it so it has the desirable interior with the old reliable 12v cummins it backed by a nv4500 5 spd transmission. It has a dana 80 rear end with 3.55 gears and a limited slip in it. The truck has 164k on it and runs great. Over the past few months I have replaced the over flow valve with an adjustable OFV from tork technologies so the fuel pressure is perfect. I replaced the steering gear box with an AC Delco reman and also replaced the pitman arm so the steering is tight. The oil pressure sensor was just replaced. I just changed the oil with rotella. I changed the transmission fluid with amsoil designed specifically for the nv4500. The truck also has a larger replacement open element air filter, and straight pipe exhaust. The pump has a set of 4k governing springs so the truck doesnt defuel at 2200 it has power well over 3500rpm, the pump has been tweaked and tuned with a #10 plate to NOT smoke and have great power. The clutch is in good shape and does not slip. It also has a gooseneck ball in the bed. This truck is in great shape and will make some a nice truck I dont have no use for it. The tires are also in great shape with around 75% tread on them.

1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup
Fri, 18 Jul 2014Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.
Jay Leno's Dodge Challenger raises $585k for USO in Scottsdale
Mon, Jan 19 2015Of all the metal moved in Scottsdale, AZ, this holiday weekend, the one you see here was hardly the most expensive. But it's noteworthy for another reason: despite being a relatively humble, second-hand 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8, raised an impressive $565,625. That's because, first of all, it belonged to Jay Leno, and secondly because the proceeds were going to the USO. Leno donated the modern muscle car from his collection to benefit our men and women in uniform, and was on hand to present the car on stage at the Gooding & Company auction, along with USO president J.D. Crouch II and former Army chief of staff General George W. Casey, Jr. After frenzied and patriotic bidding, the gavel ultimately dropped at $360,000, accompanied by over $200,000 in additional contributions, bringing the total amount donated to the USO to over half a million. Commendable though it was, of course the Challenger didn't garner the highest bids at the auction. A 1959 Ferrari 250 GT LWB California Spider sold for $7.7 million and a 1968 Ferrari 330 GTS fetched $2.4 million. A rare 1962 Ferrari 400 Superamerica Series I Coupe Aerodinamico sold for over $4,070,000 – which, according to Sports Car Market, is the most ever paid at auction for a 400 Superamerica. And a 1966 Porsche 906 Carrera 6 also sold for a record $1.98 million.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013
Wed, 02 Jan 2013The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
