|
1998 Dodge 2500 12valve Cummins - Vin#:1B7KF23D2WJ108530 Reserve set at $7,500 I purchased this truck from a Denver dealer in 2005 with 165,000mi. It took me a year to find this specific model and I have not been disappointed. I do not know the owner history prior to my purchase. Currently the truck has 274,214mi and is in good shape, although like any truck with 275k, it is not pristine. However, I would not hesitate to drive this truck anywhere in the world from my doorstep without modification! It's a 12 valve! CONS: I thought I could repair the body work in the driver side rear quarter panel (hit in a parking lot years ago), but I thought wrong. It looks OK, but not professional. Rust on the bottom of
the passenger door - it's been there for years, but will need to be replaced at
some time. Always starts the first
time and runs great, but takes a couple of minutes till you can really get into
the power. (Especially in cold weather.) Small oil leak from
front of engine - cam seal? I went to get it fixed at Boulder Dodge 8
years ago and they said they would have to pull motor. Needless to say, I have put up with the leak - it's not big and you never need to add oil. As with many Dodge 12v 5-speeds,
it will occasionally pop out of 5th into neutral going down steep
hills. Easily goes back into gear and does not happen in any other gear.
Rarely occurs. Driver's leather seat
has been bad since I purchased it. I have a seat cover. CD player will play only
if you press down on the top of the CD once it's in the slot. Crack in windscreen. Other scratches, cracks,
dings on front, sides, topper..., but nothing major Passenger side
bed/topper has recent paint splatter that I haven't been able to rub off Do not have the
tailgate. I put the topper when I got the truck and haven't seen the
tailgate for years. Driver side seat back adjust lever is stripped - angle can be changed with vice
grips.
PROS/FEATURES: Starts easy, runs strong, handles well Dodge 2500 Laramie SLT - free and clear title 12 valve Quad cab Long bed 4wd 5-speed manual (with St.
Christopher and Jesus shift knob I epoxied on from my prior vehicle.
Hasn't moved in 8 years and may never. I have the original shift
knob.) Power windows, locks, seat, cruise control Commercial Unicover

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat ringtone revs up [w/video]
Wed, 30 Jul 2014The 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).
2013 Dodge Charger AWD Sport
Tue, 29 Jan 2013We won't beat around the bush: The all-wheel-drive Dodge Charger is not a brand new car. This generation launched in 2011, AWD models and all. But for 2013, Chrysler has added an optional sport package to the AWD model, available with both the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 or the sweet, sweet 5.7-liter Hemi V8. The upgrades for this new sport pack are mainly cosmetic; a gloss black grille, new 19-inch alloy wheels and body-colored rear spoiler make up the list of exterior changes. Inside, there are new sport seats and paddle shifters, and the eight-speed automatic transmission has been reflashed for better performance.
But because vehicles like the Dodge Charger mainly stick out in our minds as being rear-drive bruisers, Chrysler wanted to give us the opportunity to test out the LX platform's foul-weather prowess. And perhaps no place more appropriate to test such a system was way up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula in the dead of winter.
Driving Notes
2013 Dodge Challenger V6 recalled for fire risk, owners asked not to drive
Sun, 17 Mar 2013Chrysler has issued a recall for the V6 version of the 2013 Dodge Challenger (as pictured above in 2012MY) over the possibility of a wiring harness that could short circuit and lead to a fire. Owners of these V6 Challengers built from November 2012 through January 2013 are being urged to contact dealers immediately and, in the meantime, not to drive their cars or park in or near any buildings.
Chrysler estimates around 2,500 potentially affected Challengers are in owners' hands, while another 1,900 are still sitting on dealer lots. The total number of recalled vehicles is 4,459.
So far, Chrysler says that seven fires have been reported - none resulting in injuries. The company is instructing vehicle owners to contact their dealer to find out if their vehicle is included in the recall, but owners can also find the build date information of their vehicle by checking the label in the driver's door jamb.
