2004 Sprinter. 165k. Contractor Shelves And Tool Boxes. 110v Power. New Tires on 2040-cars
Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States
This is a contractor type van with weatherguard shelves. TWO sliding doors plus the barn doors in back. A rare configuration. In have a lista tool cabinet facing out the drivers side for easy tool access. This cabinet cost around $2000 alone. It has ball bearing slides and the drawers are a full 24" deep. Has a tripp lite aps 1250 110v inverter with built in 30 amp battery charger. Works well for saws , lights and smaller compressors. Just not big stuff for long periods. Has trailer hitch receiver and 7 pole wires outlet. No brake controller though. Van has 2 long narrow weatherguard pack rats facing out the rear, and a 3rd also facing out the back with 3 drawers built in. I tried to make a many items accessible from outside the van. This setup works great. Factory bulkhead with glass. I have 2 factory keys. 4wheel disc brakes. 5 cyl Mercedes diesel with new head and glow plugs replaced when i bought 4 years ago by the old dealer. Nice perk little perk. Google tripplite for the inverter and lista cabinets for the drawers and weatherguard for the pack rats and shelves. I also installed a factory mercedes grill and some emblems. This is the way they are built before dodge puts their chrome grill on. Looks much better
The bad stuff that isn't that bad. Sometimes the horn isn't loud or not working. Probably needs to be replaced. I removed a cheap radio and bought a used factory radio but i don't know how to hook it up with the security code thing. Small dent in hood. Small dent in rear quarter. Rust under windshield by the rubber trim. The underside is very clean in my book. Some kids stole my tires a year ago, so i had a bodyshop repaint some used and they are better than factory. I then put on 4 vanco cargo tires with a high load rating. They have about 5000 miles on them maybe less. On the rims, The body shop used double clear coat that will keep them from rusting like the factory rims always do. The kids also jacked it up on the rockers, making small dents in them. I just left it and its not really noticeable unless you are underneath. The factory blue paint sometimes would get a rust spot, but i would sand them off and repaint. I haven't had to do anything in the last 2 years though. The pictures are from a unwashed un touched up no wax in daily use setting. It will look better buffed and waxed and cleaned. But i have used it as a contractor van and is my pride and joy, if you want something with no signs of use you should buy another one. This one is used daily, greased oiled and loved by my crew. I bought a 07 sprinter but this one everyone likes the 04 better. Better turning radius, better mpg, 2 sliding doors, and shorter. More glass too. Work i had my shop do this summer as follows. Replaced Brake pads but left rotors alone. Transmission service. Charged engine oil with synthetic. New windshield. Air filter. New battery. Rear shocks were replaced. Upgraded the alternator to a 150 amp bosch. The original was only 90 amps. If you dont want the shelves and tool boxes and inverter i will subtract 1200. If you want to have a shop inspect it email me. Ill work with you. Thanks pete 612 990 0335 |

Chrysler says its 8-speed transmissions will save 700 million gallons
Thu, Jun 19 2014Chrysler Group's TorqueFlite eight-speed transmission could be earning some serious green bragging rights if the company's projections are correct. The recently widely proliferated automatic gearbox, which is now in more than a million vehicles around the world, is poised to save drivers an estimated 700+ million gallons of fuel over the vehicles' lifetimes (an expected cost savings of $2.5 billion). In addition, Chrysler expects a reduction in CO2 emissions by more than six million metric tons. According to Chrysler, and depending on the vehicle, the TorqueFlite can improve fuel economy. The TorqueFlite autobox features particularly close ratios from fifth to eighth gear (see the press release below for the specific numbers), and uses low-viscosity fluid that doesn't need to be replaced. Transmission software adapts to the driving situation to optimize efficiency based on driver behavior, temperature, grade, stability control, and longitudinal and lateral acceleration. The TorqueFlite is capable of handling a variety of duties. As evidenced by the wide range of vehicles Chrysler Group has seen fit to equip with the eight-speed transmission, the TorqueFlite is capable of handling a variety of duties. Since its 2012 introduction, the TorqueFlite has gone from performing cog-swapping duties in Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 models equipped with the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 to changing gears in vehicles such as the Pentastar- and Hemi-powered Dodge Durango, Jeep Grand Cherokee and even the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel. For the 2015 model year, the eight-speed is finding its way into even more vehicles with the addition of a third version. In addition to the American-made TorqueFlite 845RE and 8HP70, the new 8HP90 will be manufactured in Saarbrucken, Germany. The 8HP90 is designed for higher torque loads, making it ideal for high-performance vehicles like the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. The already-in-use 8HP70 will expand its duties to be used in 2015 Hemi models such as the Dodge Charger, Challenger, and Challenger SRT8. You can see the list of those benchmarks in Chrysler's press release below.

How good would this look as a Dodge? New Peugeot 408 is a cool EV crossover coupe
Wed, Jun 22 2022Americans have long lusted after the forbidden fruits of the automotive markets: Vehicles offered elsewhere but not sold here in the United States. When Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, former parent to Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, and others, joined forces with PSA (Peugeot and others), there was hope that Americans could get hold of some quirky French cars as part of the deal. That hasn’t happened, at least not yet. As it turns out, Europeans get just as many boring crossovers as we do, though Peugeot thinks it has a solution with the new 408, an aerodynamic compact crossover with style for days. While we seriously doubt a rebadged 408 would ever show up on our shores, it's easy to imagine how a vehicle looking something like this on the same electrified platform could spawn a viable product for the American market. Squint a bit and "new electric Dodge Intrepid" comes to mind. Perhaps it shouldn't be surprising that France would come out with a new vehicle that seems well-matched to the American market. Utility vehicles made up 46% of new vehicle sales in France in May, matching the sales numbers of sedans in the country. PeugeotÂ’s banking on the fact that many people want the space and usability of a compact SUV but tire of the styling and ubiquity of the vehicle type. The fastback shape provides a more dramatic design look without completely sacrificing the characteristics that make SUVs so popular. Peugeot offers a traditional SUV in the 3008, but the 408 is sleeker and more aerodynamic. The automaker says that the 408 “offers a feline stance and unique allure, engineering excellence focused on efficiency and intelligent electrification, as well as the emotions provided by cutting-edge technologies dedicated to driving pleasure and instinctive use." Two plug-in hybrid powertrains will be offered first, producing 180 and 225 horsepower. A standard gas model will also be available with a 130-horsepower engine. All variants get an eight-speed gearbox, and Peugeot says an electric model will come later. No Stellantis brand in the United States currently offers a purely electric vehicle. Peugeot will build the 408 at its plant in Mulhouse, France, for the European market. The vehicle will go on sale early in 2023 and will later become available in China. Related video: Featured Gallery 2023 Peugeot 408 Green Green Dodge Citroen Crossover Future Vehicles
