ATTENTION MOPAR ENTHUSIASTS!!! If you are looking for a near one-of-a-kind, mostly original, southern-grown, mainly rust-free where it counts Dodge Power Ram W250, with unheard of ~29,850 original miles, then you have found just what you have been searching for. I am the second owner of this hard-to-find Ram which I purchased from a dealership in Bremen, GA in Aug of 2009 from a gentleman who traded it in on a new truck. That man was the "original owner" as he purchased it at government auction with ~14,000 miles on it. He owned it for several years where he restored the interior, replaced a whole host of mechanical parts such as the carb with a new Edelbrock, water pump, etc.(I have a more complete list just not on me presently) The truck has a rare combination of a 360 V8 engine, and one the most bulletproof 4 speed, low-geared transmissions ever made. The undercarriage of the truck is impeccable for the age, as top be expected from a truck which spent most of its life in the south. I have rarely taken it out in the snow and salt of the northeast as to preserve this untainted and solid truck. The previous owner repainted the truck and I would give it a grade of C, so a professional paint job would do this truck wonders. The interior was also replaced by the owner's wife who did in my opinion, a very nice job. She added some of her own touches with Power Ram stitching on the visors and 4WD shifter boot. The original radio had been replaced with a modern JVC w/CD. The truck has factory A/C which has never blown cold since I have owned it, and I have never cared enough to get it working again. The steering wheel has been replaced with a smaller racing style one, but I have the original. The wheels are not original and have been replaced with chrome 17" rims. Tires have ~3/32 of tread on them and will need to be replaced soon. The catalytic converter has long been gone from original owner and was not necessary for inspection in GA. In summary, this truck can be made into a real gem with minimal efforts as the core of the truck including body, frame, low miles, 4X4, engine and tranny, interior, all glass is perfect, and overall mechanical condition for the age is way above average. Some of the things which will need a little TLC include some exhaust hangers which recently broke and will need to be replaced, a tune-up may be in order replacing the plugs and wires, a professional paint job, and some of the rubber around the vents may need to be replaced as the driver side window and or vent whistles and leaks a bit. Some final thoughts to consider: I drove this truck home over 900 miles from Bremen, GA to NE PA when I purchased it, and had absolutely no issues. The engine runs great, transmission and four-wheel drive work perfect, brakes are to my knowledge acceptable, and the truck looses very little oil over an extended period time. I am selling this truck against my true wishes but unfortunately need the money more than the truck. Both myself and my young son enjoy this truck very much and my goal was to pass it onto him when he is older, but that is just not in the cards at this time. If you have any questions, feel free to call me on my cell at 570-954-0952 and my name is Steve. Bid with confidence and you will not be sorry should you win. Title in hand and available for show with appointment.

Fiat-Chrysler shows its SEMA lineup
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Fiat Chrysler Automobiles already previewed its 2014 SEMA show lineup with some slick renders. Now, the automaker has finally showed us the actual cars, and among the group there are definitely some that stand out more than others.
Dodge is really showing off its muscle at this year's show with four concepts that all pump up the power of the brand's models. Perhaps most interesting among them is the Challenger T/A Concept (pictured above) in striking Sublime Green and matte black. It's meant to resemble the classic Trans Am racer from the '70s. Under the hood is a 6.4-liter V8, and to fit the vintage style there's a pistol-grip gearshift inside.
The Charger R/T also gets some attention with the Mopar concept that shows off what FCA's aftermarket performance arm can do. Mods include an updated body kit, cold-air intake for the 5.7-liter V8 and a coil-over suspension kit. Beyond that, the Dart R/T Concept looks a lot meaner with a black hood with duct work that leads straight to the air intake. The rest of the compact sedan is dolled up in O-So-Orange paint and is fitted with upgrades to improve handling like a coil-over suspension and big brake kit from the Mopar catalog.
2013 Dodge Dart GT offers subtle menace in compact form
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Dodge has already shared all of the relevant information about its all-new 2013 Dart GT, but it wasn't until now that we've seen the car, live and in person. The slightly meaner front fascia and bigger wheels look great on the Dodge, and the red-on-black perforated seats are sporting in an aftermarket sort of way.
To recap: The Dart GT also gets a bit more power, using a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine to make 184 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque. A starting price of $20,995 will get you LED taillights, dual exhaust, an 8.4-inch touchscreen and a 7.0-inch TFT display.
Feel free to re-acquaint yourselves with the full Dodge Dart GT information in the press release below, or have a leisurely browse through our gallery of live images.
Marchionne on Alfa's US return, Dodge Dart's powertrain weakness and minivan plans
Fri, 18 Jan 2013As a reporter covering an auto show, the one opportunity you never want to miss is going to the Sergio Marchionne press briefing.
"This undertaking to bring Alfa back is a one-shot deal... We are not going to do this twice."
There just aren't that many real characters left in the auto industry. Marchionne, who sits atop both Chrysler and Fiat, is not only one of the smartest execs in the business, but also the most frank. Herein, a sample of the quotable always-sweatered executive:
