1983 Mitsubishi Mighty Max Turbo Diesel Truck 4wd Dodge D50 4 Cylinder Diesel on 2040-cars
Tiskilwa, Illinois, United States
|
Nice little 4X4 2.3 liter turbodiesel Mitsubishi Mighty Max truck. Around 40 mpg saves the fuel! Solid 5speed manual transmission. This is an original factory diesel unit. These Mitsubishi 2.3 liter diesels are some of the best small diesel motors out there. Same as the Dodge D50 Ram diesel of same year. Runs good and 4wd works nicely. Body is in good condition but does have some rust in the bed and on door rocker panels. Frame is super solid as this was a southern vehicle most of its life. It does have one frame repair needed behind the driver rear wheel (see photo). Still drives fine, but would be good to repair rust spot. Air conditioner is not currently hooked up but likely works. Brakes could use some bleeding, new brake lines were recently installed. Just installed brand new glow plugs and starts good. I was going to use this as a farm truck but this is such a nice vehicle it would make a perfect restoration vehicle. I think everything on this unit is stock and for the right person this could be an amazing restoration of a nice truck. Runs nicely on the road and can do highway speeds easily. Sold in AS IS condition as while running and driving good this is an older vehicle. Would also be a great vehicle to convert to waste vegetable oil. Odometer says 59,000 but not sure if that is correct or if it has been rolled over. Thanks

Mitsubishi's all-electric Pikes Peak challengers are in it to win it
Sun, 30 Jun 2013With a second-place finish already in the books from 2012, there's only one thing on the minds of Mitsubishi drivers Hiroshi Masuoka and Greg Tracy: winning. As the presenting sponsor for the 2013 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, there's no doubt the Japanese manufacturer is hoping for a good showing this year, and the video you'll see below explains how Mitsubishi changed things this year to help ensure a win... basically, more power and more downforce.
Winning in 2013 certainly won't be easy. With competitors that include Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima and Rod Millen, who's driving for Toyota, winners in 2012 in the Electric class. Our own Jonathon Ramsey sat down and spoke with the boys from Mitsubishi, and found that, if not for the over-the-top presence from Peugeot, the the all-electric MiEV Evolution II (which may be a sort of test-bed for potential Lancer Evolution-of-the-future components) may even be capable of challenging for the overall victory.
Their target: nine minutes and thirty seconds. We'll see how close they get later this afternoon. Scroll down below to watch the video.
Chrysler de Mexico to sell rebadged Mitsubishi model in shades of Colt deal
Wed, 02 Jul 2014Chrysler and Mitsubishi have had a close relationship since the early '70s. Back then, they partnered up to sell the Japanese brand's models under American names as captive imports in the US. Vehicles like the Dodge Colt, Eagle Summit, and eventually the 3000GT/Stealth twins and lots of other cars and trucks became the fruits of that alliance. In fact, the two companies still maintain a good rapport, as evidenced by reports of a new deal to sell the Mitsubishi Attrage, also known the Mirage G4, in Mexico starting in November.
The Attrage is a small, four-door sedan that borrows many of the mechanical bits from the Mitsubishi Mirage hatchback. According to Automotive News, the deal allows Chrysler to sell the model in Mexico for the next five years. The deal could be a win-win for both companies. Mitsubishi gets to use more capacity at its Laem Chabang, Thailand factory where the car is made, and Chrysler gets a new vehicle for a growing market with almost zero development costs. At this time, there's no indication of the new model's name in Mexico, though.
There's also still a chance the Attrage might make it to the US market as well. The automaker showed off the sedan as the Mirage G4 at the 2014 Montreal Motor Show ahead of promised sales in small-car-friendly Canada. The Mirage hatchback was introduced to the US in a similar way, debuting in Canada first and then crossing the border. While reviews for the Mirage have been pretty atrocious, it would still be interesting to see Mitsubishi further expanding its lineup in North America.
