Vehicle Auctions (First time bidders see note at bottom)

 

This is a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 single cab seized by the Sheriff as a result of a forfeiture.  The answers to questions requesting additional information will be posted on the item description as the auction progresses.

 

Here is what I know:  The vehicle is a 4.7 liter 8 cylinder with 207,442 miles on the odometer.  The engine seems to run well.  Sounds good.  The tires are in faircondition and the front driver side tire has a slow leak.

 

Flaws.   The vehicle needs to be jump started.  Since it’s been sitting awhile, the battery will need to be replaced.    The driver’s seat adjustor is broken off.  Should be visible in a photo.

 

Keep in mind we have no history of the vehicle other than it was being driven when it was seized.  Since then it has sat in storage.  Good luck.

 

FORFEITED VEHICLES/SHERIFF’S SALES 

The Sherburne County Sheriff’s Office currently disposes of forfeited vehicles through public auction on eBay.  The vehicles are listed with no reserve price, meaning the highest bidder wins the auction.  Auctions typically start at $100.00.  Vehicles are forfeited for a wide variety of reasons, from drunk driving to drug sales or fleeing a police officer. The vehicles also display a wide range of maintenance and repair (or disrepair, as the case may be).  The Sheriff’s Office does not have a mechanic, nor do we claim to know anything about vehicle maintenance.  For that reason, you are strongly encouraged to view the vehicle in person or arrange for someone to look at the vehicle for you prior to sale.  While the department will make every effort to note each defect or characteristic to help you make an informed purchase decision we simply don’t know cars to the level of detail that has been requested in some of the auctions held since the department started using eBay in 2002.  Bottom line, if the vehicle was being driven at the time it was seized we’ll tell you. From the time it comes into our possession, it gets towed or moved by flatbed. We don’t drive the vehicles. As such, we can’t attest to their operability. 

As each vehicle listed for auction on eBay was forfeited, it is unregistered and unlicensed.  Both details must be taken care of before the vehicle can be driven off the lot.  Out-of-state buyers can purchase 31-day permits for $11.00 at the local license bureau, which would allow the vehicle to be driven.  Minnesota residents must handle license and registration transfer prior to the vehicle being driven.  The local license bureau office (5 minutes away) is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.  As for the title, when we seize a vehicle a rather lengthy paper chase begins.  The end result of that paper chase is that the Sheriff’s Office becomes the legal owner of the vehicle and our name is on the title.  We do not begin an auction until we have that title in our possession. At the end of the auction, the title is transferred from us to you.  You will leave our office with the vehicle, keys and the title in hand.   

PLEASE NOTE:

1. Unless otherwise stated, the condition of this vehicle is unknown.

2. This item is being offered "AS-IS, WHERE-IS" with no warranty or other guarantee as to its condition or fitness for use. As mentioned above, we don’t drive the vehicles and can’t attest to their operability.

3. We do not ship vehicles and all transactions must be in person.

4. Purchaser is responsible for transportation to and from the Sherburne County Government Center in Elk River, MN.

5. Unless otherwise specified, vehicle will be available for public inspection/pick-up at 13880 Business Center Drive, Elk River, MN 55330 weekdays from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM Central Standard Time.

6. Full Payment is due within 7 calendar days from the end of auction.

7. None of our vehicles come with license plates. Purchaser should check with local license bureau for licensing requirements.

8. Vehicle listed is offered on a competitive bid basis and must be removed within 20 calendar days from the end of auction.

 

Because of malicious buyers I cancel all bids of buyers with a (0) rating.  If you have a (0) rating you must contact me to bid.

Dodge and Jeep recalling 895k SUVs for possibility of headliner fires

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

Dodge and Jeep are announcing recalls of a total of 895,000 Durango and Grand Cherokee models worldwide from the 2011 through 2014 model years. There's a possibility that the wiring in the sun visor can short circuit and cause a fire. It specifically affects vehicles built between January 5, 2010, and December 11, 2013, and there are approximately 651,000 of them in the US, 45,700 in Canada, 23,000 in Mexico and 175,000 outside of North America.
Screws that fasten the sunvisor to the headliner may pierce wires in the visor, if the part has been removed or serviced, potentially causing a fire risk. If the wires short circuit, they could overheat and potentially combust. The automakers report three injuries caused by this defect, and according to the investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "there may be a total of 52 unique fire incidents."
To fix the problem, Dodge and Jeep will inspect the vehicles for suspect wiring, and all of the models, whether damaged or not, will get a new sun visor spacer with a wire guide to stop the possibility of short circuits. According to the automakers' announcement, "this condition is not present in vehicles which have not had the headliner or vanity mirror serviced." They will notify affected owners, and repairs will begin in August.

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat ringtone revs up [w/video]

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

The best (or worst, depending on your views) thing about smartphones is that you're able to carry lots, and lots of useful stuff around in your pocket. That means you can always have a phone, messaging service, email, flashlight, calculator, dictionary, encyclopedia, and literally thousands of other things on your person at all times. Now, we can add one more thing for you to carry about in your little slab of aluminum, glass and plastic - a Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat.
Now, you obviously can't carry around a 707-horsepower muscle car around in your pocket. That'd be ridiculous, impractical and uncomfortable. You can, however, carry around the noise made by said muscle car's 6.2-liter, supercharged Hemi V8, thanks to a new, free-to-download ringtone from the folks at Dodge and SRT.
We can't embed the ringtone here, so if you'd like to hear exactly how it'll sound when your phone goes off, you'll need to head over to the SRT Hellcat's page. If that's more trouble than it's worth, the same ringtone was attached to a tiny speaker on the press kit for the mighty Challenger, and was captured on video by our own Seyth Miersma (don't worry, he's already been soundly dressed down for shooting a video in portrait mode).

Ron Burgundy returns for four more Dodge Durango ads

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Dodge has released several more of its Anchorman 2-themed commercials, starring Will Ferrell as inept newsreader Ron Burgundy. The four spots, one of which is a sequel to a previous commercial, follow roughly the same pattern as previous ads, with Ferrell's Burgundy misunderstanding or generally making a fool of himself. For some of the ads, though, Burgundy is selling more than just Durangos - the red-suited host of San Diego's most watched news broadcast shilling the entire Dodge lineup.
We've included all four ads down below, and you can also hope over to our original posts to see some of the older commercials. Oh, and if you're getting tired of these - we aren't, aside from the Do-dge spot - just remember that Ferrell reportedly filmed around 70 ads for Dodge.
