Selling our pickup due to possible relocation overseas

Has been reliably used for two functions for the last few years.

1. Hauling anything and everything from Home Depot or Lowes to our house.

2. Hauling anything and everything from our house to the local dump

We purchased the truck up in MA (on Ebay) specifically to cut down on costs of renting a dumpster or paying for material delivery during the last few years of construction on our house.

The truck is reliable, starts up after a couple of pumps of the gas pedal and has a very new battery (last year) to make sure there is plenty of cranking power.

The rear leaf spring supports have been professionally replaced, as have the power steering hoses. We also had some electrical issues resolved after we purchased it.

The engine does not burn any oil, and oil is changed once a year since we only drive a couple of hundred miles locally each year.

The truck was recently inspected and did not require any repairs but there was a recommendation of new tires soon.

Since the inspection we have a new crack in the windshield a few inches long from a stone chip, will need to be replaced next year before inspection.

The body is not in the best of shape, at some point someone re-sprayed the roof and hood and its looking pretty bad with a light haze of surface rust coming through. Its looked like this since we bought it and does not appear to be getting worse. Since its from further up north there is probably more corrosion underneath and on the wheel arches than you would typically find in New York.

We did not buy the truck for appearances, just for functionality.

Since then we have added some dings, dents, scratches and a nasty bash in the side from a gas station barrier (see picture) but none affect the functionality of the truck.

The A/C has not worked since we have owned it, the radio is terrible with a buzzy speaker so bring your own ipod. On a positive note there is a dual cup holder that can hold fairly big drinks and a nice big arm rest.

There is no rear bumper, its not required for inspection and was absent when we purchased it.

If you are looking for a functional and reliable truck with a FULL 8 FOOT BED with hard wearing bed liner then this is the truck for you, it has saved us thousands of dollars in dumpster fees and delivery fees and paid for itself 5 time over.

If you are looking for a fixer upper to re-spray then this is not for you, its all about functionality and not looks.

 

EDIT:  Additional note, the carfax thing seems to have an accident reported incorrectly. The truck has never left Long Island since we registered it in mid 2007 so its obviously incorrect and has not been in an accident.  Its never been to Wallingford, CT.

Police Report ACCIDENT REPORTED (Case #:2007-27034)

QB says University of Alabama offered him a Corvette to play football

Fri, 16 May 2014

The University of Alabama Crimson Tide football team could be in some hot water, following a pair of posts on social media.
The first post was sure to raise a few eyebrows on its own. It's an Instagram of sophomore running back Derrick Henry standing in front of his new Dodge Challenger (we're guessing it's an R/T based on the fender stripes). Complete with a custom set of wheels, the image was enough to trigger more than a few questions about where an unemployed student-athlete came up with the money for such a purchase. Now, this could be harmless. Henry, flush with a full-ride to Bama could have convinced his parents to get him something nice with his college fund.
The second post, though, is a straight-up accusation. It comes from former West Virginia Mountaineer and current CFL quarterback Pat White, who posted the following on his Facebook page.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat with '600-plus horsepower' officially unveiled [w/video]

Tue, 20 May 2014

Dodge has officially unveiled the most powerful vehicle to ever wear the Challenger name - the SRT Hellcat - complete with over 600 horsepower courtesy of a supercharged, 6.2-liter Hemi V8. It will be offered alongside the 485-hp Challenger SRT.
The new, force-induced V8 isn't just the most powerful ever fitted to the Challenger, it's the most powerful eight-cylinder Chrysler Group has ever built. Power figures aren't finalized, so expect to see "over 600 hp" bandied about quite a lot. That fury will be channeled through either a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic. Yes, over 600 ponies through an eight-speed auto. So far, the only vehicle we know of that delivers more output through that many gears is the as-yet untested Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Sadly, we don't have performance metrics just yet, although if this thing can't crack four seconds to 60 miles per hour, we'll be pretty surprised.
As is the theme nowadays, the 2015 Challenger SRT features a number of driving modes, governing power output, shift speeds for the 8AT, steering effort, traction control settings and suspension settings. There are three pre-programmed options - Default, Sport and Track - and a Custom mode that allows drivers to mix and match to their heart's content.
