2000 Dodge Ram 3500 Quad Cab 4wd 5 Speed Manual Fire Damaged on 2040-cars
Finksburg, Maryland, United States
This was my "weekend warrior" truck until yesterday when an engine fire rendered it useless to me. I've had the truck nearly six years, and only put about 20k miles on it driving to Lowes, the landfill, mulch yard, and helping friends move. Prior to yesterdays event, I had only minor annoyance issues with the truck. The manual transmission gear box had a slow fluid leak which I topped off every six months or so. The ABS brakes would activate randomly at low speed as I approached stoplights which apparently is common in these trucks. Hadn't got around to troubleshooting that. The dreaded Dodge door rust was setting in, but didn't bother me much cause it was just my work truck. That's about it. Other than the areas damaged by the fire, the paint is in great condition. The white streaks in the photos are from the fire extinguishers that we were using to keep the fire under control until the fire department arrived. It really was a great truck for me, and since I didn't carry comprehensive insurance on it, I'm just trying to get whatever I can out of it. I have no idea what caused the fire. I had just driven to the land fill 3 miles from home to drop off some debris from a home project I was working on, and when I pulled off the weigh in scale smoke started pouring out from under the hood. All of the damage to the hood and front end was caused by the firemen opening the hood to get to the fire. Vehicle not drivable. You pick up. |

Chrysler Group moves around execs in wake of recent departure
Tue, 16 Apr 2013Chrysler is busy shuffling executives around in the wake of Ram head Fred Diaz's departure. The automaker has named Reid Bigland (pictured, right) as Diaz's successor in the role of president and CEO of Ram, though Bigland will continue his duties as the head of US sales and the president and CEO of Chrysler Canada. Bigland first came to Chrysler in 2006 from Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation, so the guy knows a thing or two about trucks.
Meanwhile, Timothy Kuniskis will take over as president and CEO of Dodge. Previously, he served as the head of Fiat in North America and has been with Chrysler in one capacity or another since 1992. His old title now falls to Jason Stoicevich, who will also continue to work as the director of the automaker's California Business Center. Finally, Bruno Cattori will take over as the president and CEO of Chrysler Mexico.
Diaz left his position to take over as a divisional vice president of sales and marketing with Nissan. You can read the full press release on the Chrysler personnel changes below for more information.
Dodge Viper GTS-R goes back to old-school livery
Fri, 20 Jun 2014The Dodge Viper may have been around now for over 20 years, but as far as racing achievements go, 2000 was its finest season. That's when it won the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the GTS class trophy at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and its second consecutive title in the American Le Mans Series.
Since then, SRT Motorsports hasn't quite had the same success, withdrawing from Le Mans this year and shedding the Dodge name and its emblematic red and white livery for the SRT badge and a silver snakeskin theme. But now that the Viper is back under the Dodge banner, so too is the racing team returning to its classic livery.
Starting from the six-hour race at Watkins Glen next week, both the No. 91 and No. 93 Viper GTS-Rs will wear the red base color with twin white racing stripes that its more accomplished forebears wore on circuits around the world. And with it, maybe the Viper will return once again to the winner's circle at home and abroad.
Dodge Challenger returns to Trans Am
Fri, 15 Aug 2014NASCAR's Nationwide Series may have switched (in appearance anyway) to muscle cars, but American racing fans know that if they want to see real muscle cars on the street circuits, the only place to look is Trans Am. The all-American racing series is packed with Mustangs, Camaros and even Corvettes. The one thing it's been missing is the Dodge Challenger, but now SRT Motorsports has announced it's bringing its muscle car back where it belongs.
Rather than waiting until next year, the Miller Racing team is switching mid-season to the new Dodge Challenger SRT Trans Am racer you see here, just in time for this weekend's race at Mid-Ohio. And not just that - it's lined up a compelling pair of drivers to pilot it, as well.
The No. 11 car will be driven by Trans Am legend Tommy Kendall, a four-time series champion who's been off the grid since 2004. Backing him up in the No. 1 Challenger will be none other than Cameron Lawrence, the driver who has won five out of six races in the Chevy Camaro so far this season, losing out only once to American racing scion Adam Andretti.
