3.3 Liter V6 Automatic 78799 Original Miles **always Maintained And Very Clean** on 2040-cars
Middletown, New York, United States
|
This vehicle was bought locally from a Dodge dealer with 8570 miles in September 1995; as we understood it was a repossession purchased by the dealer at an auction. We've maintained it meticulously over the years and stored it in our barn with a cover on it. It's never been driven during the winter months. We basically used it for vacations to Amish country before we bought an RV. Our child is grown and we no longer use it or take the same vacations
as we did when she was younger so we have decided to downsize our
small fleet of cars. Plus, the registration is up in July; the NYS inspection is valid through October. Inspections receipts I found show the following consistent mileage: 2005: 61293
miles; 2006: 65,423; 2007: 67926; 2008: 69700; 2009: 71,984; so you see, were rarely
use and the mileage is valid. The Cooper Trendsetter 205/70R15 tire were installed on the factory gold 'lace spoke' wheels at 70,142. It has a Primetime Galavan conversion package which includes a hi top fiberglass roof, oak trim throughout, mood lights, reading lights, limo window tint, a small six pack sized cooler between the front seats, an extra drawer under the front passenger seat, a rear storage cabinet, TV, VCR, an extra rear radio/cassette, four headphones, four (4) captain chairs and a folding rear bench seat. This van seats 7. The rest of the truck is stock. The rear bench seat and the two rear captains chairs can be removed to allow the hauling of larger items if need be. We used to remove the rear bench seat to fit a large dog crate in the back. It also has a bug deflector and carpeted floor mats throughout. The large rear vent windows are powered from the driver's seat. The air conditioning condensor was replaced by a Dodge dealer several years ago so the A/C is cold; it also has rear A/C and heat. The transmission has always been serviced regularly with Mopar fluids only (this is very important for Dodges - to use Dodge transmission fluid and filter). The shocks/struts were changed around 43K with Monroe brand. The water pump was changed at 61K when we were on a trip to Amish country. The spark plugs, air filter and oil were installed/changed about a thousand miles ago; the battery was replaced in 2013; the front and rear wiper motors were replaced in 2011 (one failed so I had both changed at the mechanic's recommendation). The class IV hitch has only been used for hauling bicycles; this van has
never towed anything (it doesn't even have a trailer light switch plug
for the hitch). It also comes with a full tank of premium gas (we always used premium gas in this vehicle). The only real issues are the following: the clearcoat on the roof of the fiberglass high top is peeling (not the paint, just the clearcoat has failed); there is a paint blister/fail spot on the engine hood (quite atypical of Dodge, see the photo); the right side running board has a few scrapes on the bottom of it; and some of the gold pinstriping has darkened and flaked off with age here and there. The van runs perfectly and I estimate it gets about 18 mpg. Check the free independent Auto Check vehicle history report link from Experian (above) which shows the vehicle's history accurately. It rates this van above average for its age (scored it 42 when the average van of this year is 27) and it showed no 'red flags', no accidents, no surpises. Kelly Blue Book states the private sale price of this van in 'very good' condition is $3300, excellent $3400 - and that's without the Primetime conversion package add ons. It can be viewed before bidding, if you'd like, in Westtown, NY, probably on Saturday 6/7 - just contact me via eBay message. Any questions, please feel free to eBay message me, and I'll get back to you between 6PM and 10PM weekdays.

Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat in the works
Fri, 25 Jul 2014In Autoblog's recent First Drive of the 2015 Challenger SRT with the 707-horsepower Hellcat V8 we found its engine to be as brutally powerful as the numbers would suggest, even if it wasn't the best handler. However, the muscle-car-styling just isn't right for some buyers that need four doors and proper rear seats to haul around the family. It appears that Dodge has their backs, though, because the Hellcat is very likely on its way into the Charger in the near future. Imagine the looks on your passengers' faces when you stomp down on the throttle.
According to Road and Track, when Dodge submitted the Hellcat for engine power certification to the Society of Automotive Engineers, the company included the Charger on the paperwork. That showed that the automaker wanted the engine checked out for the sedan, too. R&T reckons the 707-hp Charger would hit the road about a year from now, clearing the Challenger for a year of exclusivity with the powerplant.
When the Charger SRT Hellcat does hit the road, it may carry a very special accolade. Assuming nothing beats it in the meantime, it might be the world's highest horsepower production sedan. Think on that for a second. Even a Mercedes S65 AMG only has 621 horsepower, though a good bit more torque at 738 pound-feet to the Dodge's 650 lb-ft. So while the beastly engine is getting put into other models, where else would you like to see it? The Ram? Grand Cherokee? Let us know in Comments.
Chrysler killing off the 200 Convertible, Dodge Avenger
Sun, 23 Feb 2014When Chrysler rolled out the first-generation 200 to replace the Sebring range in 2010, it included replacements for both the sedan and the convertible. The Sebring Coupe, however, was left out of the mix. And now that the second-generation Chrysler 200 is descending upon us, Auburn Hills is paring things down even further. But this time, it's the convertible that reportedly isn't making the cut. Shame, too, since the rendering above shows what could have been quite an attractive droptop.
As our compatriots at Edmunds point out, sales of the convertible model accounted for less than five percent of overall Chrysler 200 sales, and at those numbers, the considerable cost of engineering a new drop-top couldn't be justified. With the Toyota Camry Solara and Volkswagen Eos also gone from the market (well, the VW isn't gone quite yet), the discontinuation of the Chrysler 200 Convertible leaves the affordable convertible segment largely to the sportier likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro and smaller European offerings like the Mini Cooper and VW Beetle.
The Chrysler 200 Convertible isn't the only derivative being left behind with the new model: so too is the Dodge Avenger. That will leave a glaring hole in the Dodge lineup, with nothing to bridge the gap between the compact Dart and the larger Charger. Whether the Dodge brand has any plans to replace the Avenger with another model, not to be based on the 200, remains to be seen.
Will Dodge limit 2015 Challenger SRT Hellcat to 1,200 units?
Sun, 20 Jul 2014With over 700 horsepower on tap and a price tag barely over $60k, Dodge appears on paper to have a winner on its hands with the new Challenger SRT Hellcat. But if you want to get your hands on one, you may have to act quicker than this most powerful of muscle cars covers the quarter-mile.
That's because, according to our compatriots over at Edmunds, Dodge may limit production - in the first year, at least - to just 1,200 units. That would amount to barely a quarter of the Challengers that Dodge moves each month, and would also mean only one Hellcat for every two Dodge dealers in the US - which could lead to some serious contention over which stores and which customers can get their hands on the ultimate Challenger.
Reached for comment, SRT spokesman Dan Reid told Autoblog that "there is no plan to limit production of the Challenger Hellcat," echoing the words of Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis who told Edmunds: "We don't know what the market demand is." Which doesn't mean that it won't restrict production, but doesn't mean that it will, either. It just hasn't decided yet - or announced any such decision, at any rate - over what will be the final allocation strategy for what could be a game-changing muscle car. That is, at least, until new versions of the Mustang and Camaro come along in pursuit of Dodge's bragging rights...
