I am selling this 1989 Dodge Dakota Convertible for a friend of mine. I will do my best to give an accurate description of the truck. This is a one owner vehicle.  The mileage is accurate. The owner has stated that the valve cover gaskets are leaking oil onto the exhaust manifolds and this causes the truck to smoke. The body is in pretty good shape for a 24 year old truck, it does have a few dings and scratches but no body damage to speak of. There appears to be little to no rust on the truck. The tires are in good condition. The paint is in fair condition and it has had the front fenders as well as the hood repainted several years ago. To the best of my knowledge, everything works as it should on the truck. The interior is in very good condition for a 24 year old truck. This is somewhat of a rare truck as only (Appx). 3800 were ever made and very few were 4x4 with A/C.  The top is original and has had a couple of small repairs in the past. The owner has several extra parts and decals that will transfer with the truck. This truck is loaded with A/C, power locks,windows,steering,brakes, tilt wheel,cruise and a 5 speed tranny. If you are looking for a rare convertible truck, this is the one. If you have any questions, please call me at 719-510-4582. This is a no reserve auction! The truck must be picked up no later than July 27th as the owner has sold his home and is moving. If you have 10 feedback or less, please call me prior to placing a bid. Payment must be made in full within 48 hours of auction close. I will accept a bank wire, paypal with the fees paid by buyer and cash. The truck is located in Golden, Colorado.

2013 Dodge Durango R/T

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Not too long ago, Chevrolet got itself into some trouble by throwing the SS badge on just about everything it produced, so I've always been a little hesitant about the seemingly excessive use of the R/T nameplate on Dodge vehicles. For the 2013 model year, every model in Dodge's lineup has an R/T trim level from Dart all the way up to the Durango. Although the R/T name used to signified models made for road and track, I doubt anyone would be delusional enough to assume the Durango - and some of the other models wearing this badge - are suited for any sort of track duty.
Still, when this 2013 Dodge Durango R/T rolled up for me to drive for the week, I couldn't help but take in its big, mean and imposing stance. Sure, if I had my choice of buying any of the Dodge R/T products, the Charger and Challenger would be my top picks for sure, but it's easy to say that the Durango would be a close third - far above the R/T versions of the Avenger, Journey and Grand Caravan.

Dodge to resurrect Scat Pack?

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

Before social media ever existed, if automotive enthusiasts wanted to be noticed or recognize other fans, they joined a car club. For Dodge muscle car lovers from 1968 through 1971, that group was known as the Scat Pack. Just like the Charger, Challenger and Dart nameplates, it looks like the Scat Pack could be getting a resurrection by Chrysler.
Automotive News is reporting that Chrysler recently renewed its trademark on the Scat Pack name, and while this is in no way a guarantee that the name will return, AN talked to Tim Kuniskis, Dodge President and CEO, who stoked the fire a little more. In the article, Kuniskis said that the name is "a very important part of our history" and added that "we like the whole idea of having a Scat Pack of cars." Scat Pack models were identified by their bumblebee stripes and helmet-wearing bumblebee logo, and the idea of a modern Scat Pack doesn't seem all that outlandish in light of recent vehicles like the Charger SRT Super Bee and the Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Concept.
What do you think, is this a cool idea, or is it just an unwelcome bit of nostalgia? Have you say in Comments.

2015 Dodge Viper getting small increase in power

Tue, 29 Jul 2014

The Viper is used to being the most powerful car in the Dodge and SRT stables, but the arrival of the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat means that's no longer the case. The serpentine supercar is, however, reportedly getting a small boost in output for 2015, amounting to all of five horsepower.
The increase was uncovered by Road & Track courtesy of the SAE J1349 certification process to which Detroit's Big Three automakers submit themselves and which reports the Viper's output at 645 hp instead of the 640 it was rated at until now. There are a hundred factors that could have contributed to the relatively mild boost in output (best guess? nothing at all changed...), but we doubt anyone's going to complain about some extra horses under the hood.
The five-horsepower boost brings the Viper that much closer to the 650-hp Chevy Corvette Z06, not to mention the 707-hp Hellcat, but the Viper's impressive power-to-weight ratio ought to mean it'll have little problem keeping up in a straight line - which is just one of the reasons why Chrysler won't shoe-horn the Hellcat into the Viper: as R&T points out, the supercharged engine is too heavy and the blower makes it too tall to fit in the Viper's engine bay.
