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 |

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
2015 Dodge Charger darts into NY traffic
Thu, 17 Apr 2014Meet the refreshed 2015 Dodge Charger; notice anything different? You would have to be pretty farsighted to miss the sedan's new Dart-like nose, and it's likely going to be quite polarizing to the car's fans. Gone are the previous furrowed, aggressive headlights in favor of a wider, friendlier look.
While the more rounded headlights and narrower grille are going to be the first thing most people notice, Dodge claims its designers have made changes to nearly every panel on the Charger. The hood dips down deeper at the front, and the doors show off a more angled version of the car's shoulder blister. LED running lights and taillights are standard on all models, and SXT and RT trims get LED foglights. Even though the front might not be as intimidating, Dodge has hung onto the sedan's muscular stance with angular contours making up the rest of the redesign.
Under the hood is the same engine range you've come to know over recent years. Both the 5.7-liter V8 and the 3.6-liter V6 return for 2015, with the Hemi making 370 horsepower and 395 pound-feet of torque, and the standard Pentestar outputting 292 hp and 260 lb-ft. All models are now equipped with Chrysler's TorqueFlight eight-speed automatic as standard. Fuel economy for V8 Chargers is predicted at 16 miles per gallon city and 25 mpg highway, compared to 15 mpg / 25 mpg last year with a five-speed automatic. All models also come with electric power steering, and the axles are cast from aluminum to save weight.
Question of the Day: Most heinous act of badge engineering?
Wed, Dec 30 2015Badge engineering, in which one company slaps its emblems on another company's product and sells it, has a long history in the automotive industry. When Sears wanted to sell cars, a deal was made with Kaiser-Frazer and the Sears Allstate was born. Iranians wanted new cars in the 1960s, and the Rootes Group was happy to offer Hillman Hunters for sale as Iran Khodro Paykans. Sometimes, though, certain badge-engineered vehicles made sense only in the 26th hour of negotiations between companies. The Suzuki Equator, say, which was a puzzling rebadge job of the Nissan Frontier. How did that happen? My personal favorite what-the-heck-were-they-thinking example of badge engineering is the 1971-1973 Plymouth Cricket. Chrysler Europe, through its ownership of the Rootes Group, was able to ship over Hillman Avanger subcompacts for sale in the US market. This would have made sense... if Chrysler hadn't already been selling rebadged Mitsubishi Colt Galants (as Dodge Colts) and Simca 1100s as (Simca 1204s) in its American showrooms. Few bought the Cricket, despite its cheery ad campaign. So, what's the badge-engineered car you find most confounding?
