Up for sale is my 1995 Dodge Ram flatbed. This truck has been used for my company truck for the last year. I really like it but due to a change in registration laws in my state, I need to downsize to a smaller truck. I bought this truck here on e-bay from a dealer in Nevada and flew out and drove it home. It had a utility bed on it when I bought it and I had the bed changed to put the flatbed on from my old truck which was totaled by a drunk driver while parked in front of my house. Since I've owned this truck, I've done several things to improve it. One was to have heavier springs installed in the rear so it would hold extra weight. After I had the flatbed installed I made new sideboards and painted the bed and sideboards. Sideboards are heavy duty made of 2 by10 boards and 3 in. channel iron uprights. I put 2 new batteries in shortly after I bought it, and a few months later I replaced the crankshaft position sensor, had the AC repaired and fixed some transmission leaks and had a new windshield installed. I also recently had the front brakes replaced and a new pitman arm installed. The radio, AC, Heat, and power windows all work. The overhead compass and thermometer also work The power windows occasionally don't work and you have to tap on the door to get them working again. I think its a loose wire or possible a dirty switch. The tires are in good shape and still have a lot of miles left on them. Mudgrips on the rear and regular tread on the front. All glass is good with no cracks. I've recently gotten 21 MPG on one long trip unloaded and on the way home the same trip got 18 MPG with a 4000 LB load. I've taken several long trips in it this last year, and it hasn't left me stranded anywhere or had any major breakdowns, I personally wouldn't be afraid to get in it and drive it anywhere in the nation. It's very reliable. There are a few things about the truck that are not perfect but it's in pretty good shape for it's age. It has been re-painted in the past before my owning it and was originally white. There are a few small dings where the white is showing through. There are a couple cracks in the dash that are barely noticeable, and there are some stains on the carpet, that don't show because they are covered by the floor mats. The seat is good except for some wear on the drivers side that you can see in the photo. There are 4 holes drilled into the front bumper on both sides that were used to support a pipe rack it had on it that was put on by the previous owner. It is also missing the interior rear view mirror. I'm not aware of any major mechanical problems I have a spare belt and water pump that I will include to the new owner. The mileage listed is current as of the listing date Oct 19, 2013 and is subject to change as it's still being used. If you want the current mileage before bidding feel free to ask. Buyer is responsible for any transport or shipping. I will help in any way I can but I prefer you make your own arrangements. Update* In late November early December 2013 I took this truck on a 3500 mile round trip from Garden City Kansas to Jacksonville Florida. My average fuel mileage for the trip was slightly over 18 MPG. On the return home I was hauling around 3500 LBS. As stated above, the mileage will be changing as it is still being driven. The autocheck report is showing 2 problems, one being a duplicate title. This must have happened before my owning it. All I know is that i did not have any problem getting a title issued in my name. The other problem is because the title is stating "mileage exceeding the mechanical limits" I don't know why this is showing as an issue. What do they consider as the mechanical limits? |

Chrysler recalling over 280k minivans because airbags may deploy on wrong side
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Chrysler has issued a recall for some 2013 Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan and Ram C/V Tradesman vans built between May 10, 2012 and June 7, 2013. These vehicles may have a software error that would cause the wrong side (opposite side) airbags to deploy in a crash. With this defect, a left-side impact would cause the right-side airbag to deploy, etc.
The recall affects 281,500 vehicles in total: 224k in the US, 49,300 in Canada, 2,900 in Mexico and 5,300 in other locations. Chrysler will notify owners of effected vehicles, and reflash the offending occupant restraint control module to resolve the issue. Scroll down to read the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration press release.
Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k
Tue, 07 Oct 2014Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.
Dodge, Hyundai crowdsourced-funding sites deemed successes
Wed, 05 Jun 2013What's not to love about crowdsourcing? This idea, after all, has given us Kickstarter as well Local Motors, but automakers are starting to use the social platform to sell more cars (or just drum up a little PR). Both Dodge and Hyundai have used "crowd-funding" recently, and while Automotive News is reporting that neither has racked up big sales with this gimmick, both automakers are pleased with the attention.
For Hyundai, it teamed up with website Motozuma.com to help customers crowdsource money for a down payment, and the automaker matched this amount up to $500. Last year, this helped Hyundai sell an extra 1,600 units, a fraction of its total 2012 sales. That figure is far larger than Dodge fared with the Dodge Dart Registry - it netted only two sales and a small number of individual options. This registry did help University of Southern California fraternity crowdsource $18,000 to buy a Dart for a local Meals on Wheels, however. Despite the low sales figures, Dodge and Hyundai are considering their crowdsourcing programs a success since it helped them connect with younger buyers.
