Up for auction is a 99 Dodge Ram Van 1500 5.2L V-8. Runs strong and has a rebuilt 4sp automatic transmission that was rebuilt 3 months ago at the local Dodge dealership. The front end suspension and rear brakes were rebuilt by the dealership also within the last year, plus a thorough alignment was done. The brake proportioning valve was also replaced there too. The air conditioning blows cold and has worked well ever since I bought it. Being a black vehicle that is a nice feature to have during our Georgia summers! I switched out the doors with those from a conversion van so that I could have the power windows and power mirrors. I didn't get the power locks installed since it would require the whole keyless entry setup to work, but the power mirrors are great for checking blind spots while being able to adjust them down to avoid headlight glare from behind. I still have the original non-power doors and can include them too if you like.
The cruise control and all accessories work fine, title in hand and it passes local Georgia emissions, plus it has new plugs, wires and battery. The tires are a year and a half old and are at least %75 tread left, plus they've just been rotated. Safety cage installed and the blanket across it cuts down on the road noise, plus helps the AC and heat work better. The body is in good rust free shape, though its seen plenty of dents and scratches. It was originally built with the rear window delete and black paint option, the windowless feature was helpful for me as I used it at my last job as an aircraft mechanic supporting the National Guard. We often had to drive expensive parts and equipment across several states to fix the airplanes and it was helpful not to have any windows to show what we were hauling. Having the air conditioning, the stereo and the cruise control helped a lot on those long road trips.
The issues I didn't get around to fixing are; it still has a small oil leak from under the distributor seal, the windshield is cracked and there is a new sliding door skin where a past owner was hit in the side, and lots of little dents and scratches, and worn seats. Mileage reads about 233343 but was registered as exempt when I bought it so it may be inaccurate. Sometimes in stop and go traffic the brakes shudder a bit. This happened after they were rebuilt and the drums were replaced, but the faulty proportioning valve caused them to overheat and they warped slightly. The valve was replaced and the drums resurfaced but since they are new, I didn't feel the need to replace them.
Now that the program has ended and our site closed, I no longer need a vehicle like this and I bought a pickup truck that can carry my whole family. I spent a lot of money to fix up this van mechanically so there wasn't anything left over to improve its looks. This truck looks beat up and wont win any beauty contests, but it will make a comfortable and reliable workhorse for someone.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
2014 Dodge Durango priced from $29,795*
Wed, 14 Aug 2013With all the new updates the Dodge Durango is getting for 2014, one thing that Dodge isn't changing on its big SUV is the starting price. Just like the current model year, the 2014 Dodge Durango will be priced from $29,795 (*not including $995 for destination).
This price is for the base SXT model, but the 2014 Durango is also offered in a new Limited trim level (replacing the Crew) as well as the sporty R/T and the luxurious Citadel. The Durango Limited starts at $35,995 (an increase of $800 over the 2013 Crew), while the R/T now starts at $38,995 (up $2,500). The top-of-the-line Durango Citadel will start at $40,995 - an increase of $1,000.
The many improvements made to the 2014 Durango include revised exterior styling, added in-cabin tech and an eight-speed automatic transmission (expected to return better fuel economy). Dodge is saying that the V6 models will get 25 miles per gallon on the highway while V8 models are expected to score 23-mpg highway, but there are no official EPA numbers to report yet. Scroll down for the full press release.
Lackluster Dodge Dart sales trigger layoffs
Thu, 06 Mar 2014Hidden amidst the overall very positive sales figures that Chrysler released earlier this week were a few disappointments, the biggest of which may be the Dodge Dart. While Dodge sales in general were down 11 percent from a year ago, the Dart's poor figures stood out from the rest - with 4,888 units sold, the Dart was down 37 percent in February.
It comes as little surprise, then, that the automaker has announced layoffs at its assembly plant in Belvidere, IL. According to The Daily Herald, Dodge will temporarily lay off 325 workers "to balance vehicle supply with current sales demand." Put more simply, there are more Darts than buyers at the moment...
We don't think the Dodge Dart is a bad car, but it's playing in a market that offers a few standout sellers, like the Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. According to AutoPacific analyst Dave Sullivan, as quoted by The Daily Herald, "great incentives on the Dodge Avenger" are also partly to blame for the Dart's poor showing.
